The Savage of Unions

Nobody’s Opinion

It was past midnight when I ran into one of my neighbors who was out walking her little dog, Elvis. She was moving she said, and we got to talking about how the whole North County of St. Louis had deteriorated, and it was good that she was getting out. We both admitted the “downfall” had started decades ago…around the 70’s. I remember many white families moving away from the “black” exodus North, as it was called back then, and stopped to wonder…just how slowly the changes had taken place.

Now, I’m about as prejudice as the next man. I don’t like mean people. I don’t like dishonest people. But short of that, if you are decent, and caring, take care of your family and your house, I really don’t care what color you skin is. I always judged the person first, and have since I was a kid.

But, I’ve watched my neighborhood go from being 80 percent white to 75 percent black throughout my lifetime, and while many white people that I know have left, I have no intention of moving away. …unless the crime gets too bad and I must.  I like most all my black neighbors, but the few who I don’t like, I wouldn’t get along with even if they were white. I get along with less of my white neighbors than my black ones. Like I said, skin color doesn’t man a thing.

I mention this because I’m setting this up:

We started talking about current events and then she was talking about how she was glad to be moving away from the “blacks.” By today’s standards, she was a ‘raciest.’ BUT…not racist enough–she  supported  Obama. “I voted for him” she said proudly.

(Nobody Wonders: Does Obama want the “racist” white people to vote for him?)

“Uh…you must be union.” I said.

“Yes, I am. You know I would never vote for Romney, he wants to take the Social Security from old people! You know, many people need Social Security and Medicare!”

Even if I gave her a lesson in simple economics, I knew she wouldn’t listen.

The fact that Obama was one of her hated “black” people didn’t even come up. As long as she got her big paycheck, which she attributed to Obama, she was voting for him.

As I listened to this rant by Michal Savage today,(see below) who puts what many of us feel into words…and I remember how hopeless I felt after I realized just how many people are like my neighbor. They are listening to all the “sound bites” and not even questioning Obama.  And then I realized that every union man, and most likely everyone that works for the unionized government will vote for him. That’s half the country. The ones making the money now, think that they will lose it if they DON’T vote democrat.

It’s a lie, but you can’t tell them that. After all, most of them just got a raise.

The nation of “have” and “have-nots” will not only be the “rich” but the “union” members vs. the rest of us. The numbers for the “rest of us” is getting slim.

The unions ruined America. They’ made almost twice in salaries (adding their benefits) as what the private sector makes.  Like the rioters in Greece, they have been making so much money for so long, they don’t see the cliff coming down the road. And why should they?

Human nature is all about survival.

In a way, I envy my neighbor. I know in ten years from now I will be in the minority in my own neighborhood. And it won’t be the blacks, or the Asians, that I will want to get away from..It will be the Muslims.

They have come to take over. I will be a stranger in my own land.

Not that our politicians seem to care. They have already left this land. Bill Clinton was on TV today, and all he could talk about was how he was saving the world. Obama will be doing the same thing years from now.
