I Never Thought Of It That Way

I disagree!
I think I happen to be among the few,
Who believes they have succeeded tremendously.

Look around.
Observe.
What do you see?

'I see a waste of human energy! '

Go on...
And?

'I see a breakdown of dignity and self respect.'

And?

'I see a mess!
That's not progress.'

Who's talking about 'progress'?
I'm talking about what they've succeeded to do!
And it had to have been what they wanted...
Or this condition would not exist.

Hey...?
Maybe from their point of view,
We are witnessing THEIR 'progress'.
I never thought of it that way!
Maybe that's why they reject our version of unity!

Now is not the time to compromise on the economy. Instead, we should be doing everything in our power to support long-term economic growth. Permanent repeal of the death tax will mean more high-quality, high-paying jobs for Americans.
