by people who are sincere and who will stand by them-Such as people who cannot live responsibly and prudently as adults need to have their rights and freedoms taken away from them. This was the gist of a speech that I heard at a Toastmaster meeting on Saturday, June 20th.

 I asked him about the speech and he stood by it. He offered the following as a rationale for his speech, " People who recieve help from public monies should not have any say as to how they are provided for and the amount of help they are provided"

Not an idea that most will be willing to abide!

 We, In the US, seem to be asked constantly to accept, adjust, realign, embrace and move on without missing a beat whenever change transpires. We are really not asked to consider the propriety of the change. No one really seems to be concerned abiout whether we are pleased or displeased by the change. Any disruption or disadvantage that we personally experience due to the change is written off as a mere personal problem.

 Yet, It seems that examining, considering, discussing and debating the change and phasing it in over time is more the way human beings seem best "wired" to work. Yet, It is often, and not inproperly so, that disadvantage, rights and resources denied, opportunity that is unfairly stilted trump our ability to well-adjust as we desire to so, Easy or not, This is how things must immediately become and we "just have no choice but to deal with what NOW !! must be"!

 I believe that a lot of societal anger, angst, anxiety, displeasure and malcontendedness can be traced to crashing tidalwaves of change without a break or slowing down to allow us to properly and sanely re-align.
