Subject: Reality message to "anti-socialist"
conservatives
This morning, I was awoken
by my alarm clock powered by electricity generated by my local public
power monopoly regulated by the US Department of Energy.
I then took a shower in
the clean water provided by my Municipal water utility.
After that, I turned on
the TV to one of the FCC regulated channels to see what the National
Weather
Service of the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration
determined the weather was going
to be like, using satellites designed, built and launched by the
National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
I watched this while
eating my breakfast of US Department of Agriculture inspected food and
taking drugs
which have been determined as safe by the Food and Drug Administration.
At the appropriate time,
as regulated by Congress and kept accurate by the National Institute of
Standards
and Technology and the US Naval Observatory, I get into my National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration
approved automobile and set out to work on the roads built and
maintained by the local, state, and Federal
Departments of Transportation.
On the way, I stop to
purchase additional fuel of a quality level determined by the
Environmental Protection
Agency, using legal tender issued by the Federal Reserve Bank. On the
way out the door, I deposit any mail
I have to be sent out via the Congressionally-regulated US Postal
Service and drop my kids off at our local
government-owned and Department of Education mandated public school.
After work, I drive my
NHTSA-approved car back home on the DOT maintained roads, to the house
which
has not burned down in my absence because of state and local building
codes and Fire Marshall's inspection,
and which has not been plundered of all its valuables thanks to the
local police department.
I then log on to the
Internet, which was developed by the Defense Advanced Research Projects
Administration,
and post on FreeRepublic and Fox News Forums about how our GOVERNMENT
is a horrible SOCIALIST
TYRANT who can't do anything right and needs to stay out of my life.
