Don't worry, God can take it. But we can't. Americans were gifted an entire continent of unexploited natural resources, which they despoiled, then turning to other peoples and places whose resources were also obviously intended for us, we being the chosen people by virtue of the implications of that initial gift, divine right and fiat.
The myth of the resourceful, independent, self-reliant American--subduer of wilderness, civilizer of savages and tamer of beasts--belies the truth of the addiction to free stuff. Watch now as we scramble in a competition, unto death, to acquire and cling to as much free stuff as possible.
Merry Christmas, America.
