Dealing with the Government

Dealing with the Devil – You get what you deserve.  

Maybe Outer Limits or TwilightZone or Tales from the Darkside put forth an episode long ago of a traveling salesman from Hell. His deal was simple. I give you a suitcase full of money; Millions (Billions in today’s terms). You give me permission to torture for eternity someone you dont know, nor will ever know. What is your answer?  

You struggle with the thought of hurting another human being; let alone for eternity, versus the good that could be done with the money. Wrongs in your life could be corrected. You quickly comfort your greed by relying on mathematics allowing one to suffer for the good of many.  You accept the salesman’s deal, making sure the one chosen will not be anybody you know, or ever know.

The salesman can barely respond through a ghoulish smile, and you share that smile now holding a large suitcase of cash. But the salesman bursts into laughter as he walks away, and this makes you wonder why; “Why are you so happy?”  The salesman turns and utters with joy, “Now I’m going to find someone who doesnt know you, nor will ever know.”  

This is the Fiscal Cliff deal, welfare programs, any form of handout. You take and take not caring who it is being taken from until it is taken from you. This is what you get when you Deal with the Government.
