Conservative Only MEMES

I maintain two different lists. One is a Prayer List.
Democrats, Illegal Aliens, Hamas, Hamas Supporters and The Hamas Caucus are not on my Prayer List.
They are all on my MUCH Longer list.

I had amnesia once—or twice….

I went to San Francisco. I found someone’s heart. Now what?

Protons have mass? I didn’t even know they were Catholic.

All I ask is a chance to prove that money can’t make me happy.

If the world were a logical place, men would be the ones who ride horses sidesaddle.

What is a “free” gift? Aren’t all gifts free?

They told me I was gullible and I believed them.

Teach a child to be polite and courteous in the home and, when he grows up, he’ll never be able to merge his car onto the freeway.

Experience is the thing you have left when everything else is gone.

One nice thing about egotists: they don’t talk about other people.

My weight is perfect for my height–which varies.

I used to be indecisive. Now I’m not sure.

How can there be self-help “groups”?

If swimming is so good for your figure, how do you explain whales?

Show me a man with both feet firmly on the ground, and I’ll show you a man who can’t get his pants off.

Is it me –or do buffalo wings taste like chicken?

Corvette Capitalism

The First 2021 Chevrolet C8 Corvette Has Been Delivered | CarBuzz

A guy looked at my Corvette the other day and said,

“I wonder how many people could have been fed for the money that sports car cost?”

I replied I’m not sure;

“It fed a lot of families in Bowling Green, Kentucky who built it,

it fed the people who make the tires,

it fed the people who made the components that went into it,

it fed the people in the copper mine who mined the copper for the wires,

it fed people at Caterpillar who make the trucks that haul the copper ore.

It fed the trucking people who hauled it from the plant to the dealer

and fed the people working at the dealership and their families.”

BUT….I have to admit, I guess I really don’t   know how many people it fed.

That is the difference between capitalism and the welfare mentality.

When you buy something, you put money in people’ s pockets and give them dignity for their skills.

When you give someone something for nothing, you rob them of their dignity and self-worth. Well, for those who had some dignity to begin with that is.

Capitalism is freely giving your money  in exchange for something of value.

Socialism is having the government take your money against your will and give it to someone else for doing nothing.
