Rural Stupidity?


Rural stupidity.. who are the true purveyors of that?

Leaf.. who sees them doing stupid things.. and wants them to stop doing stupid things
Or "you folks".. Who tell them to do stupid things? When only the really stupid would listen to you!

Rural stupidity...is not based on ignorance..Nobody does more and gets less....they don't have time to figure out the government problems because they're too busy with their own.. Nobody is more on their own.. and lacks a safety net..that urban people enjoy. Nobody has fewer numbers and less power.

Rural stupidity.. is about two factors.... first a lack of appreciation...for their CHOICE, and their freedom.....and then allowing "you folks" to tell them.. what they lack, what everyone else is getting....what they deserve....and how to get the "power"
It's all a LIE.....!
They made a choice of a rural life, as with any choice there is a trade off..... of what normal people may see as good or bad... Rural life is the easy/hard life....Urban life is the hard/ easy life......Of course, you can't understand that..?
So rural stupidity.. is not appreciating what they have... and believing "you folks".. .....that what they really want is.... what someone else is getting..
Many are "rural smart"...Those people can be defined as not giving a shit about what "You folks" think...
the "rurally smart".... made a choice that everyday they would prove to themselves.. they were their own person.. Stand and live their own life...make their own decision....You folks come along and want to change that?
When YOU can only have success with the Rural Stupid?
I can't call "you folks" stupid.. ...but what I know... because of what you do...You think there is enough stupid rural people to believe you.

So you folks have compassion for the small farmer who ekes out a living.. and enjoys his life, and his choices.

Are you going to protect him....from automation, efficiency, profit, corporations, and capitalism? Are you going to help save the rural small towns, save the income from that supports rural America towns....things like social security, and infrastructure?..... Are you going to help supply rural America .. with health insurance , doctors and hospitals, and schools....? Are you going to..... deal with clean air and clean water, or climate change? Are you going to prevent the unscrupulous, profit takers, banks, and mortgage companies from taking the land?
Are you going to instill business regulation that protect the farmer, and create a level playing field?

Are you going to help Rural America survive.. or sign their death warrant ..
You can't have it both ways.....

Rural stupidity.... is that darkness at the end of that tunnel..... You shine a light where there is no light.

Fields

I love my field of grass and dandelion
As I sit in the middle, looking up at the sky
A tear appears and I find myself cry'in
It seemed silly, so I asked myself why?

A man came along and wanted to plow
To grow crops, for there were people to feed
He wants my field... and wants it now
How selfish of me not to feed the need

Another man came and wanted to build
For everybody needs a place to live
And didn't I know what God has willed
How selfish of me, not to want to give

Another man came and wanted to drill
For everybody, it seems, needs the fuel
What's one person's needs? With so much to fulfill
Not selling to him, would just be cruel

So, I sat in my field and started crying
About this answer to my unselfishness
The love of my field will soon be dying
And lost with it, a moment of bliss.

Somehow I doubt that stupidity is restricted to rural areas.

Labels... I HATE LABELS

    Quoting  :

thank you.. I tried to delete it ...but I was too late..

What happened was.. i thought what a waste to post it on your blog...

I had something to say... to people who won't listen.. you want to know what I mean?

Well... you never respond to my blog or responses.. just to me personally.

so let me give you a chance to prove me wrong..

What is Trump and the conservative movement going to do for rural people...?
What are you selling them.. but their own destruction...?

I thought Maisie's blog very ironic considering the many times she and Liszt insulted me based on me living in a rural area..Assumptions that people living in rural areas are less knowledgeable and informed than they are based on them living in a city........She is, as usual, just spewing whatever will, in the moment, cause the most divisiveness and make the "other" look stupid....Every single blog she has posted for years has the same simplistic message.....me good, them bad........

maisie is amazing.....
When you analyse it.. who does maisie side with.. who does she agree with as a compatible ideology.. What is maisie's ideology? Libertarianism? Tea party?
What does maisie stand for?

Does she agree with evangelicals?
Does she agree with neo- nazi's , racists and the alt right?
Does she agree with the small farmers and rural people?
Does she agree with hiram, or bob, or mr Ed, or even Lizst?
Does she agree with the pro-life people?
Does she agree with Trump or anybody in Congress?

She only agrees with ANYBODY .....who's against... what she's against...
What people are FOR.. doesn't matter to her.....
