Government Efficiency
Seems to me that the Liberals try really hard to show some rationalization to their actions. They try to make themselves believe what they want for this country is just. As many Americans do, those politicians on the left want mother government to be the answer to all our problems. The politicians on the left want really really hard to believe government is efficient. ( Hey, nothing wrong with a little positivity) I just don’t see any basis for this claim .
The state of Rhode Island cant even function properly in this unemployment crisis. Unemployment here lowered from 12.9 to 12.7, but my state is having trouble meeting our needs for our benefits. Try calling an office. I promise you, you will get a busy signal for the next three weeks trying to get through.
I think the people are a little tired of the run around. I think the people would be able to rest much easier if Rhode Island straightened up it’s act, and maybe moved a little quicker? Life is tough for the one’s caught in this cycle of crap. Can’t find a job and can’t finish the claim to collect on a regular basis. Can’t finish the claim, and can’t accept the great benefits that go along with unemployment. I.E. free tuition and a steady paycheck every week.
Oh, but I hear bonuses are going to be available for some big buisness fat cats, when, May?
Good luck to every Rhode Islander who is struggling. I feel you.

Metaphysics
Design
The theory of design has been debated by many. Are we intelligently designed? Has evolution designed us? Aware of a certain hidden reality, man does know that design plays a fraction of a role which makes us human.
My statement
Man is certain, either through a creator or evolution; we are the way we are because we are supposed to be this way. Is this statement true? Yes. Let’s look at an example. Each Pant and animal holds it’s individual survival skill. Poison, strength, flight…these are benefit’s that lead to a higher rate of survival. Placed in an element, a living thing holds on to it’s traits. Is this true of a living thing which has been taken out of it’s element? Yes.
Take the Pacific Parrotlet. Originating from the Pacific, your bird will have certain traits passed down from generation to generation. Even though its parents and grandparents have been in captivity for quite some time; This Pacific parrotlet will act out traits tracing back thousands of years.
I am a parrotlet owner, so let me share an example with you. Even though socialized, my bird will screech every time a tree branch or a house plant begins to rattle about. Certainly my bird knows what a tree is, so why would he screech almost as to portray a defense mechanism? Well, it is his design. In a more natural habitat, a bird may screech and get into defense mode when he sees the tree leaves and greenery being rattled. He knows this is a sign of danger and prepares for trouble. Now, even though my tame bird has never experienced life out of my home, those certain quirky traits still linger within his design. This rule applies to all, even us humans.
I use this rule of design to explain the “God” theory. We have never experienced God in the true sense, but we are certain of his existence. Why? Can it be, that just like my Parrotlet, We have been taken out of our natural element? Our original design still exists; we are just in a different world. This could make sense. The Christians have said it. Story goes that God cast out his angels (book of Genesis/ book of numbers). He even cast out Adam and Eve, first man and woman (Old Testament/ book of Genesis).
The truth is that even when you take something or someone out of its natural surroundings, its offspring will take its traits and pass those traits down. Truth. So can we apply this to the philosophy of Religious fable?
