This Great Nation, Fairness To All

Obama in his DNC acceptance speech talking about the heros of our nation.

"In the face of that young student, who sleeps just three hours before working the night shift, I think about my mom, who raised my sister and me on her own while she worked and earned her degree, who once turned to food stamps, but was still able to send us to the best schools in the country with the help of student loans and scholarships.
[...]And when I hear a woman talk about the difficulties of starting her own business or making her way in the world, I think about my grandmother, who worked her way up from the secretarial pool to middle management, despite years of being passed over for promotions because she was a woman.She's the one who taught me about hard work. She's the one who put off buying a new car or a new dress for herself so that I could have a better life. She poured everything she had into me.
"

And these impressive feats, thanks to Obama, and the Democratic message, will soon be legends of history. His vision is that no suffering will take place, every person will have health care, every one will have cable (or satellite), everybody will have a Prius to drive. "They" will provide everything that "We the People" have right to. Such as a 30 hour work week, 6 weeks vacation so that we don't go postal and go on any shooting sprees. Instead of worrying how to pay for things, we can just sign everything over to the government and they shall provide. Where $100 of our earned dollars returns at about $20. No more are the days in which you will need to rise above the economic class your in. Everybody will be middle class, except the politicians that so graciously commit their time and energy to making sure our rights (and the rights of animals and the planet) are never violated. They will probably even create a new division of government just to create more rights for the people. How can this be bad???
