AM I MY BROTHER'S KEEPER?
House Burns To Ground Over $75.
No pay, no spray: Firefighters let
home burn
With all that you hear today from the Tea Party Goofballs about Pulling Up Your Own Bootstraps and Government should not be involved with citizen Safety Nets, etc., etc., etc., it kind of makes you feel like we’ve all been kidnapped and taken to a faraway place called The Land Of LA LA, doesn’t it? I wonder what will happen to all those who clamor “if you're not tough enough or smart enough to make it by yourself... YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN BUDDY...” (From This Site) when someday they will need to retire because they are too old or too sick to work? Will they regret their LUNACY? You bet your Pea-Picken Life, they will!
Here's a video of the Keith
Olbermann interview with Gene Cranick victim of a
horrible rural policy within the South Fulton Fire Department,
that orders firefighters to watch a home burn to the ground if
the homeowner didn’t pay a $75 city fee ... I guess the new
Tea Party chant will become "BURN BABY BURN!"
Hmmm, where have I heard that before? thinkingblue

AM I MY BROTHER'S KEEPER?
A saying from the Bible's story of Cain and Abel. After Cain had murdered his brother Abel, God asked him where his brother was. Cain answered, “I know not; am I my brother's keeper?”
Cain's words have come to symbolize people's unwillingness to accept responsibility for the welfare of their fellows — their “brothers” in the extended sense of the term. The tradition of Judaism and Christianity is that people do have this responsibility. (See Good Samaritan, Love thy neighbor as thyself)ALSO SEE Libertarian Utopia
