If plastic water bottles are okay, but plastic bags are banned,

— you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses

but is run by idiots

If you can get arrested for hunting or fishing without a license,

but not for entering and remaining in the country illegally

— you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses

but is run by idiots.

If you have to get your parents’ permission to go on a field trip or

to take an aspirin in school, but not to get an abortion

— you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses

but is run by idiots.

If you must show your identification to board an airplane, cash a

check, buy liquor, or check out a library book and rent a video,

but not to vote for who runs the government

— you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses

but is run by idiots.

If the government wants to prevent stable, law-abiding citizens from

owning a gun that hold more than ten rounds, but gives twenty F-16

fighter jets to the new leaders in Egypt —

you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses

but is run by idiots.

If, in the nation’s largest city, you can buy two 16-ounce sodas,

but not one 24-ounce soda, because 24-ounces of a sugary drink might

make you fat

— you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses

but is run by idiots.

If an 80-year-old woman who is confined to a wheelchair or a three-

year-old girl can be strip-searched by the TSA at the airport, but a

woman in a burka or a hijab is only subject to having her neck and

head searched

— you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses

but is run by idiots.

If your government believes that the best way to eradicate trillions

of dollars of debt is to spend trillions more

— you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses

but is run by idiots.

If a seven-year-old boy can be thrown out of school for saying his

teacher is “cute” but hosting a sexual exploration or diversity

class in grade school is perfectly acceptable

but is run by idiots.

If hard work and success are met with higher taxes and more

government regulation and intrusion while not working is rewarded

with Food Stamps, welfare checks, Medicaid benefits, subsidized

housing, and free cell phones

— you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses

but is run by idiots.
