If this is what you want, it’s what you got, sucker. 250 we celebrated, what did we celebrate. We have an educational system, we have schools, universities, home education, no longer are we raised in the fields picking cotton or tobacco while our mothers are raped.
We are the free and the mighty, so let me ask you a question, just what was the 250 year celebration about? Why were the fireworks set off, why did King Putz drone on?
Well it seems that if you ask the average American, over 50% of them will answer something like George Washington’s Birthday, The Civil War, or the day McDonald’s introduced the nineteen-cent hamburger. They don’t have a friggen clue.
=======================================
And while I’m on it — who knows why we are celebrating 250 years — I can tell you who can and will answer that question with 100% accuracy, every single time you ask them. Repeat: every single time. Those who decided to become United States citizens. Those who went through the immigration process and took the tests and gained citizenship. They know why we celebrate 250 years of independence.
Meanwhile the home-born, the ones handed this country at birth, the ones who never had to sit for a test or prove they earned it — half of them can’t tell you what happened 250 years ago, let alone what’s happening right now.
We just handed them a democracy nobody bothered to study for.
