One of the Most Sobering Analogies I Have Ever Heard-A MUST READ!!

Obama's Socialist America: Catching Wild Pigs

Maybe some of you have seen this story before, not sure of its provenance, but it was new to me and it serves as a perfect political parable for what is happening these days. Received it today from a dear friend up in the DC. Loved it and wanted to share it with all of you:


A chemistry professor in a large college had some exchange students in the class. One day while the class was in the lab the Professor noticed one young man (exchange student) who kept rubbing his back, and stretching as if his back hurt.


The professor asked the young man what was the matter. The student told him he had a bullet lodged in his back. He had been shot while fighting communists in his native country who were trying to overthrow his country's government and install a new communist government.

In the midst of his story he looked at th e professor and asked a strange question. He asked, 'Do you know how to catch wild pigs?'

The professor thought it was a joke and asked for the punch line. The young man said this was no joke. 'You catch wild pigs by finding a suitable place in the woods and putting corn on the ground. The pigs find it and begin to come everyday to eat the free corn. When they are used to coming every day, you put a fence down one side of the place where they are used to coming. When they get used to the fence, they begin to eat the corn again and you put up another side of the fence. They get used to that and start to eat again. You continue until you have all four sides of the fence up with a gate in The last side. The pigs, who are used to the free corn, start to come through the gate to eat, you slam the gate on them and catch the whole herd.

Suddenly the wild pigs have lost their freedom. They run around and around inside the fence, but they are caught. Soon they go back to eating the free corn. They are so used to it that they have forgotten how to forage in the woods for themselves, so they accept their captivity.

The young man then told the professor that is exactly what he sees happening to America . The government keeps pushing us toward socialism and keeps spreading the free corn out in the form of programs such as supplemental income, tax credit for unearned income, tobacco subsidies, dairy subsidies, payments not to plant crops (CRP), welfare, medicine, drugs, etc.. While we continually lose our freedoms -- just a little at a time.

One should always remember: There is no such thing as a free lunch! Also, a politician will never provide a service for you cheaper than you can do it yourself.

Also, if you see that all of this wonderful government 'help' is a problem confronting the future of democracy in America , you might want to send this on to your friends. If you think the free ride is essential to your way of life then you will probably delete this email, but God help you when the gate slams shut!

Keep your eyes on the newly elected politicians who are about to slam the gate on America .

"A government big enough to give you everything you want, is big enough to take away everything you have" ~Thomas Jefferson

STILL TRUST YOUR GOVERNMENT? OUR FREEDOM IS ALREADY GONE--WHATEVER FREEDOM YOU THINK YOU HAVE IS JUST AN ILLUSION. WE STOPPED BEING FREE WHEN THEY MADE THE PATRIOT ACTS I AND II INTO LAW. All they have to do is make up an excuse to label you a homegrown terrorist--and the constitution and due process is out the window.
The following news article should make your blood run cold. Under the Patriot Act--they can even kidnap your KIDS!! You no longer have ANY REAL RIGHTS!!
