Boondawg, you have been blessed with an abundance of intelligence but a lack of common sense. (Has it ever felt so good to get poked in the eye, ?)
Have you ever met a dog who could get rid of fleas ? Do fleas not argue ? Do they all share/redistribute the wealth ? Do only the strong survive ?
Funny you should use fleas as an analogy. Very apt. The fleas of our country are sucking the life out of our dog.

It was of/by/for the people. It was not some flippant remark like "keep your doctor". It was of the people who dreamed it. It was by the people who fought for it. It was for the people who would benefit by freedom. Real freedom. Today it's an illusion.

Wait, let me go back over the course of my whole life and see if that is true.
Nope.
Not true at all.
And anyone that knows me knows that.

I actually do quite well with it and have sustained a dozen-or-so lives because of it.
