I recently saw a new guard rail going up in our town. I expressed some concern and my wife informed me it was to keep someone, probably drunk, from driving into the ditch. That epitomized for me the state of our country. Why should my tax dollars pay to keep some drunk out of the ditch. Maybe on the interstate so he doesn't come across the line and kill me but if he drives into the ditch, let him call a wrecker and get out. What is next the Food Police telling me I can't eat salt or the Happy Meal Police telling me I can't feed a Happy Meal to my grandchildren. When did we get to such a Nanny State where personal responsibility has no bearing on activity. Next we will have the Sun Police telling us how much sun we can get at the beach or the Activity Police telling us how much exercise we need to avoid the Happy Meal Police. Liberal used to mean liberal freedom, liberal education, liberal economics and nominal government. Now it means someone else telling me what to do. They are NOT smarter than me. I am tired of them spending MY money to advance their redistributive agenda. I am responsible for me. Leave me alone.
