Obituary of Common Sense (October 20, 2012 )

Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense... He had struggled to stay alive among us all the way up until 2008, when metastasis of a latent social decease became palpable...and until today... Common Sense shall be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as:

- Knowing that investing in lies, manipulations and deceptions costs a lot and pays dividends of disgust, outrage and sometimes of blood ;

- Why cover ups tend to blow up in your face...

- ...and that maybe whatever it is - could be your fault after all.

Common Sense used to live by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you earn... don't believe that you can tax yourself into prosperity), and reliable strategies (don't rely on welfare to win elections... don't believe that weakness begets strengt...especially with bullies).

Common Sense's health began to deteriorate rapidly when a sinister Political Correctness and her arrogant children Cultural Diversity, Affirmative Action, and the latest arrival - Social Equality aka Redistribution of Wealth - became an integral part of ALL governments...When overbearing regulations were set in place or removed at the government 's will (as in cases where having a home for which you couldn't pay - became your "right").

Reports of a 6-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate...of laws that parents have no right to know that their teenage daughter submits to an abortion.. of a Dream Act... of America's secondary to Europe leadership role...and that it ceased and desist as a Christian nation - only worsened Common Sense's condition.

He lost a considerable ground when you were forced to accept that the government is allowed to sell you whatever they deem necessary ... and he continued to decline further when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault... even when it was a situation within your national home's borders.. when our military was forced to fight "wars with human face" - with one hand tied to the "Rules of Engagement" ...when mass murders by the "peaceful followers of islam" were called "a workplace violence"...and when criminals of all persuasions received a better treatment than their victims.

Common Sense finally gave up the will to live when Americans began believing that the government doesn't belong to them, but that they belong to the government. Thus - the indefensible performance records became irrelevant and open acts of War of Civilizations, resulting in deaths of our heroes and civic servants, became" Benghazigate"...(or just a "not optimal...bump in the road"?), hastily swept under Oval Office's carpet and seemingly untouchable.

Common Sense was preceded in death, by his parents, Truth and Trust, by his wife, Decency, by his daughter, Personal Responsibility, and by his son, Reason.

He is survived by his four step-cousins:

I Am Entitled

Someone Else Is Guilty

I'm A Victim

End Justifies All Means

Not many are attending Common Sense's funeral...Just those who realized he was gone. If you wish to honor Common Sense - feel free to support his Great-Great Grandmother, Constitution... or to join the silent majority and do nothing .

    "Common Sense" died in 1980 when we elected an economist to be president. (That's right, Reagan's college degree was in economics - Eureka College, Eureka Illinois)

    A certain stripe of economists had been dying to try "supply side" economics since the late 1800s and their chance had finally arrived. It sure seems reasonable doesn't it. Too bad it lacks common sense. After a 30 year trial, we've learned that good ideas on paper don't necessarily translate into the real world. Our decaying middle class is the evidence. Common sense dictates that:

    a. we tried it

    b. it failed to achieve the desired results

    c. time to move on

    I've been in business for 33 years. I had to lay off a few people in 2010 as I lost money for the first time in my company's history. I was one of Romney's 47% that year. Today, we are profitable again and business is heading back towards 2008 levels. I've not hired anyone yet because existing staff is able to keep up with the workload. When I reach the point that my orders exceed my ability to produce, I will be forced to hire again. I won't be hiring before then. You can call it "demand side" economics if you want but I simply call it common sense.

    I hear it's a good time to invest in the violin industry, with the increasing demand for sad violin music to accompany conservative whining about being victimized by diversity.
