Democrats Claim to Listen to Science; and ONE SAD DAY They Really Will

Wait for it; the Democrat/socialists will eventually follow through and go with real, actual science.

When the time comes that Democrat/socialist policies turn America from the land of plenty into a state which does not provide enough food for America to maintain its nutritional level, the Democrat/socialists will tell America that health care costs are too high and everybody needs to do their part to lower their BMI; “We’re all in this together, they’ll say.”   (Except those who are exempted, of course.)

America, prepare to be hungry.

All the while that you’re quite hungry, you’ll be told that meat, grain, fruit and vegetable production quotas have been met 3 months early.   That empty stomach that you believe you are suffering? You’re just projecting insufficiency, traitor.

Oh, and prepare to exercise to the extent that the Democrats/socialists think you should. Hint: Enough to tire you out such that you don’t have enough energy to revolt, (even if you had enough food to supply you the energy).   Orwell warns us:

“‘Smith!’ screamed the shrewish voice from the telescreen. ‘6079 Smith W.! Yes, YOU! Bend lower, please! You can do better than that. You’re not trying. Lower, please! THAT’S better, comrade. Now stand at ease, the whole squad, and watch me.’ A sudden hot sweat had broken out all over Winston’s body. His face remained completely inscrutable. Never show dismay! Never show resentment! A single flicker of the eyes could give you away. He stood watching while the instructress raised her arms above her head and—one could not say gracefully, but with remarkable neatness and efficiency—bent over and tucked the first joint of her fingers under her toes. ‘THERE, comrades! THAT’S how I want to see you doing it. Watch me again. I’m thirty-nine and I’ve had four children. Now look.’ She bent over again.”

Besides some jerk deciding how you should live your life, you know what else is so disheartening about this? The American people may well say, “Yes, I should lose weight; thank you, big brother, for caring about my health and intervening to help me.”   Think I’m wrong? How did all of that smoking banning go? Remember how governments banned people from smoking on their own property? On their own property! In their own restaurants, taverns, bowling alleys, hardware stores. How many smokers were grateful for being told to be responsible and stop smoking? How many of you protested that this was the government camel setting a precedent as it poked its unwanted nose under the tent? If government can keep you from smoking on your own property, they can keep you from doing other things government doesn’t like.

We have met the enemy and he is us.

By the way, one day government WILL pay attention to the cost of medical care that goes to people who engage in unsafe sexual practices and they’ll intone science. Don’t doubt me. They will.
