WE ARE JUST DUMB!
by Ken Freeman
We are just dumb. Lots of smart people say so. The government tells us so and you know they wouldn't lie to us. The news media thinks we're dumb too. They are always having to explain "what we should have heard if we were smart," instead of what we actually heard; this is called "spin." The environmentalist's think we're dumb too. They believe that we are too dumb to know what we should do with our own property.
People who are really smart, and are therefore qualified to tell other people what to do, are called Socialists. These Socialists try to make our lives more meaningful by telling us what is dumb and what is smart. (They even put labels on things so we will know.) Not to make it too complicated for the simpleminded masses to grasp, they label things that we should do as "Smart ---something-or-other," such as "Smart Growth," "Smart Cards" and coming to your neighborhood soon, "Smart Food." So anytime you see something labeled as "smart" you should automatically know that it is good because ---well-- "they" say it is. Everything else is not smart or is more commonly known as "dumb."
Here are a few examples:
SMART GROWTH: Obviously we dumb property owners don't know how to use our property. We don't have a clue about where we want to live or work and how we should get back and forth between the two. We were just dumb when we moved our families to the suburbs or out into the country to find a better place to raise our children. We were fools when we left the congestion and danger of the city. When we escaped that was not smart. We were labeled "despoilers" because we spoiled the countryside. They figured that we couldn't spell despoilers, so as a favor they called us sprawlers. They figured we could understand that. (Sprawl sounds like some drunk laid out on the living-room floor, doesn't it? Not a pretty picture.) "Sprawl" is actually defined as when you live where you want to live. "Smart Growth" is when you live where the Socialists want you to live. Obviously sprawl is bad. Smart growth is good. The fact that we are willing to travel several hours a day back and forth to work in order to keep our families from living in substandard conditions or to have the freedom to live as we choose means we are just dumb. We should all repent and move into five story, walk-up, "ghetto style" buildings down town, with no yards and no automobiles allowed, like the Sierra Club wants us to do. That way we could quit uglying up the countryside with our homes and schools and families and we could give sixty percent of America to the United Nations and the environmental groups as "wildlife habitat." Fifty percent of America would be "human free" as the Socialists want it to be, with another ten percent used as buffer zones to keep ordinary people from contaminating the wilderness; this is all explained by some very smart people in the "The Wildlands Project." I still don't understand why I should want to go along with that. I guess I am just dumb. But maybe you can figure it out. See www.propertyrights.org for full details and maps that show whose land they are going to take. Click "Wildlands Project" on the left side. If you want to be smart you'll read this.
SMART TRANSIT: Highways are bad; they take you where "you" want to go. It is much smarter to build subways and light rail systems and then force people to live next to them. This is sometimes called "smart transit" but usually "mass transit." Even though the systems that have been built in Washington State and elsewhere have cost taxpayers billions of dollars to build and most people refuse to ride them, these Socialists still know that this is what we need to do. I have seen figures that prove that these systems cost the taxpayers more each year than it would cost to buy every regular rider a new automobile. An automobile by the way that would actually carry them where they wanted to go; but it is called "smart transit" and it is part of "smart growth" so it must be smart. We are just dumb not to like hanging in those straps, jammed up with all those tired, crabby, smelly people everyday.
SMART MONEY: We are even getting "smart money" now, with magnetic strips, so that the government can track it; that way they know where all your money is even if you forget. I've also read that when they captured Saddam Hussein they had already found 1.2 million dollars in the area and that he had 750 thousand US dollars with him in his hidey-hole. Makes you wonder doesn't it, if he was that dumb or if his money was just that smart.
SMART CHIP: Soon we won't need money anyway. You will have a smart chip under the skin of your index finger. This way you won't lose it. You will simply place your finger on a scanner at the store and then everybody will know what you buy and how much money you have left in the bank. If you are dumb or drunk, the government can scan your finger and help you remember who you are and where you are at all times. If you forget what your teenage children look like the police can help you find them too. Putting that chip in your finger might hurt and some people won't like it. Dumb people might object, so for now, they are just going to put it on your "National ID Card." Later, after you get used to the idea, they will stick it under your skin.
SMART PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION: Soon there will be smart chips imbedded in everything we buy. That way satellites can track products and see where they are and how they are being used for the lifetime of the product. There are many benefits to this system. If for example, your shirt starts to run about the country, then smart people will know where you are too. (Assuming of course that you are in the shirt.) This information is important in case someone, say your wife or the government, needs to find you. These smart chips will also allow the government to track what happens to everything you buy. That way if you are too dumb to dispose of it like smart people say you should, they can "fine" you enough "smart dollars" so that you won't forget again. How smart.
SMART CARS: You have heard those advertisements about people who accidentally lock their sleeping babies up in their cars with the engine running or have an accident and need help. These smart cars talk back to them and tell them that help is on the way or simply unlock the door for them. Amazing: They know exactly where they are without being told. Recently I read about a court case where smart people were listening in on what bad guys were saying while in their cars. Now we find out that not only can we talk to them when we want to, but they can listen to us when they want to. They don't want to distract you while you are driving, so for safety's sake they don't always tell you when they tune in. This makes police and FBI eavesdropping so much easier. Also, the control module built right into your dashboard monitors your engine RPM, highway speed, and breaking time etc. so that way, if you have an accident, you won't have to remember all these things in court. Somehow that doesn't seem right. To most of the cowboys I know, their truck is like a member of the family. If your spouse can't be forced to testify against you, it doesn't seem like your car should either.
SMART BORDERS: Our borders have become a real problem. With millions of undocumented (that is the new word for illegal) people running back and forth across our borders it has created a huge bottleneck and major traffic congestion. Recently the Governors of our Southwestern border states and the Mexican government have started work on a program called "smart Borders" designed to (and I translate here into "bubba talk") make it easier for the efficient movement of illegal aliens and unregulated produce and other foods across our borders in order to allow big cooperations to have cheap labor and to provide cheap food for America. Cheap labor helps smart people to put lots more smart bucks in their pockets. Smart politicians also know that as long as we have cheap food, voters will put up with all the thieving, self-serving, career politicians that infest all those smart P.C.---D.C. suburbs where these special people have learned how to live in harmony with mother nature without creating any pollution themselves. Note: They hire limousines and private jets to pollute for them. Also, opening up our borders and giving everyone who wants one an ID card will somehow protect us from terrorism. I don't see how this will help but smart people say it will.
We dumb people are really lucky that we have elitists running around putting "smart" labels on things so we will know what is "good" and what is "bad" for the world. We are also lucky to have our government schools dumbing down our students so that we will know that the Socialists are the only ones who should be allowed to put on labels. All we have to remember is that anything's name that starts off with "smart" is good for mankind, and we should do what ever these smart programs tell us to do.
All of these "smart items" discussed above fall under the United Nations Agenda 21 program called, "Sustainability." Sustainability means to make something last for a long time. The best way to make something sustainable is to not let you and me use any of it. If we don't use it, it can last practically forever. Building America took courage, sacrifice and a lot of hard work and innovation. America was known the world over for our "can do" attitude. Now we are learning to just "do without." Now we seek "Sustainability."
You know, I think I liked it better back when people had common sense. Back then people knew that a man was more important than a minnow and that government was supposed to be small and efficient. Back then the people at the Department of agriculture were smarter than the produce they monitored. Back then you didn't have to be told when something was smart, you just knew. That was back when we believed that the Supreme Power was God and not The United Nations. I miss "back then." I guess... that makes me really dumb.
