With age comes wisdom.

ANALOGY:

I bought a bird feeder.
I hung it on my back porch and filled it with seed.
What a beauty of a bird feeder it is as I filled it
lovingly with seed.
Within a week we had hundreds of birds taking
advantage of the continuous flow of free and easily
accessible food.
But then the birds started building nests in the
boards of the patio, above the table, and next to
the barbecue.
Then came the poo. It was everywhere:
on the patio tile, the chairs, the table...everywhere!
Then some of the birds turned mean.
They would dive bomb me and try to peck me even
though I had fed them out of my own pocket.
And other birds were boisterous and loud.
They sat on the feeder and squawked and screamed
at all hours of the day and night and demanded that
I fill it when it got low on food.
After a while, I couldn't even sit in my own back
garden anymore. So I took down the bird feeder and
in three days the birds were gone. I cleaned up their
mess and took down the many nests they had built all
over the patio.
Soon, the back yard was like it used to be .....
Quiet, serene and no one demanding their rights to a
free meal.
Now let's see..... Our government gives out free food,
subsidised housing, free medical care, and free education
and allows anyone born here to be an automatic citizen.

Then the illegal came by the tens of thousands.
Suddenly our taxes went up to pay for free services;
small apartments are housing 5 families; you have to
wait 6 hours to be seen by an emergency room doctor;
your child's class is behind other schools because over
half the class doesn't speak English.

Corn Flakes now come in a bilingual box;
I have to 'press one' to hear my bank talk to me in English,
and people waving flags other than the English Flag are
squawking and screaming in the streets, demanding more
rights and free liberties.

Just my opinion, but maybe it is time for
the government to take down the bird feeder.
