Violet's Rant: When The Entitlement Pot Runs Dry

With all of this confusion on "free stuff" versus "working for it", I feel compelled to speak. Yes, I know.... I throw out my opinions a lot and I have to say.....I doubt it will stop, at least not anytime soon anyways.  It's just me, it's just who I am. So bare with me.....this rants been a long time coming. When my oldest daughter was about four years old, we took her to Chuck E. Cheese's for a night out. For those of you who don't know what that is...it was and still is a place where children were entertained with mechanically controlled dancing and talking stuffed creatures. It also offers various different types of games and entertainment for kids. 
Well, we arrived a little after dark, most likely on a weekend since dad worked the night shift. The place was pretty packed. We struggled through the crowd to find a seat and as we were doing so, my daughter looked up at me and said, " Look what I found, Mom." 
She opened her tiny hands and there she held two one hundred dollar bills! Well, my first thought was to look around and see if anyone was walking around looking for it, then I asked several of the workers if they had had anyone come to them saying they'd missed anything. After waiting a good while, we decided no one was looking for it. 
Now, the question was....what do we do with it? My daughter felt it was hers and rightfully so but as a parent you don't realistically hand a four year old two hundred dollars and tell her to go play, now do you? So, I decided to go get the tokens required to have in order to play the games and came back to the table. Offering her just the two dollar bills she had found or the 20 tokens I had just gotten from the machine. Well, her mindset at her young age was..... "more is better". Yet, you and I both know in this case, more was much less. Yet, not in the eyes of someone who had not yet been educated on the value of a dollar. Yes, she was perfectly pleased with $5.00 worth of tokens.
With that being said, it brings me to today's wonderful world of free stuff. 
Many people today, like the idea of free. I get it, times are hard and you work all week and find you still struggle. I mean, I have been to the grocery store many times feeling good about the buy one, get one free purchases I made. I won't mention the two boxes of crackers I purchased for $5.00 was priced at $2.49 a box the following week. That might steal some of the joy I got for the buy one, get one free I purchased last week. No, skip that dwelling on that..... I am going with the feel good moment. Just as many people see the political free stuff of today. 
Yup, democrats are offering free stuff and that's what we need.... is their line of thinking, right?
Now, don't blame them..... education is imperative for people to comprehend what's going on. Now, most would know in a New York minute....whatever that is, that the five dollars in tokens was by far less than the two hundred dollars my daughter willingly surrendered it for. They might even catch on to the box of crackers at their local grocery store but ...... now you want to get into the trillions and talk about welfare and taxes and who did what and why and they just stop listening. They don't get that the same concept applies. They hear, " we're going to make it better for you" and they want everyone to believe it. 
In hopes to break it down in a better format  I give you the example.....
 Now.....picture this.... the government has promised you....more benefits..... also known to many illegal immigrants as entitlements, which amazes me since they never paid one tax dollar to justify getting entitlements..... are you still with me? Okay, then....
Somebody has to put the money in the "pot" so you can get free stuff out of it. I mean you can't take something out of an empty pot, right? 
Right! See, you're catching on! I guess you already know that the rich man or woman yelling into the microphone is not going to actually take it out of their luxurious pocketbook, right? Right! So, hmmmm..... where do they go? You guessed it! They go straight to the working man's taxes! You know, the money they said you were paying in to protect you when you are old or disabled and unable to work.... Yes, that's right! That same Social Security benefit you get when you retire. Which by the way, Obama's administration says won't be available by the time we retire because the pot of collected taxes is going to be empty! Hmmmm....but how did it get empty? You paid your taxes all of your life?👀 Now, remember that free insurance they promised you.......
somebody has to pay for it and it's not just about you...... because you agreed to take care of those pitiful illegals who keep crossing our borders. when you elected them. Yup, when you agreed to that you agreed to help feed them and their families and pay for their insurance. Unfortunately, you didn't keep the entitlement pot full even if you did agree to let them to take more out of your check. Doesn't really sound fair now does it? Well, it isnt!  But that's the way it works. If YOU don't fill the Entitlement POT no one else will and don't believe for one minute that they are going to take it from the rich man. You must remember.....they ARE the rich man! For crying out loud!!! Whew! Sorry, that was an unexpected outburst.Okay,  so now we know who's going to be paying for it.
 Let's talk about your parents or grandparents. You know brttre than anyone how little they get in social security each month and you know how hard they worked all of their lives paying taxes and they can barely make it month to month. You don't need to tell me that that isn't right. Nope, I see it too. 
Here's the kicker.....those rich people who are currently locked up in the basement at OUR White House.....want to increase their pay because they live in areas with higher taxes and don't support an increase in Grandma or Grandpas Social Security unless of course they take something away from them. Which for the layman's purpose I will steer away from today.
In closing, think of the free stuff you are being offered as something your child or parent is going to have to work for to pay. Yup, you may get it free but the worker in your family is ultimately going to have to pay for it and about five others.  If you don't have any workers in your family.... well you are the problem. See, people....
nothing comes free and I really dont think you wish to see your children living in poverty also because they were forced to pay higher taxes to make your life easier. 
And here's the biggy..... sooner or later that Entitlement pot becomes completely empty since more people are getting free stuff and less people are working. I mean who can afford to keep filling a pot for everyone else to come take a handful out of it? Afterall, they the working class can't afford everybody's free stuff! 
Then guess what happens? Those people in the basement.....
who won't even let you see what's been going on in the basement
will own you.. yup, there will be no options for you....you will live by the meager morsels they toss from their piggy bank and..... complaining....well, that won't be an option. That basement thingy is working hard so you won't be able to speak out about it, they really don't want to hear it. And don't think you're going to get your gun so you can stand up for your family if the desperatly poor (and there will be many of them) invade your home. Of course the invaders...well, they will still own their guns since theose in the basement can't find them. No, the people in the basement..... they aren't looking at the bad guy, they're looking at you. Yup, that hogwash .... going on in the basement..... is intended to rob you of rights while they have you thinking that free stuff sure would come in handy right about now.
Without you even seeing it, they are planning on owning you.Without, your guns...... you will have no voice.
 Don't look at me...I didn't vote for them.

Violet’s Rant; Why Did You Turn Your Back On Me?


Hey, it's me....I know you're getting tired of seeing me all the time. I know.... you think that my old values are not "with it", yea, I get that. But I have tried to represent you and guide you. I only wanted others to see what we could do.

I have visited places in the darkest parts of the earth because I was standing up for you and don't think I wouldn't do it again if necessary. No, never doubt that. See, that's what I was created for to be a symbol of your strength and to remind you that I don't wave around trying to make you mad or stifle you, I just want to represent your morals and values. I was simply trying to keep us together. That's just how it's supposed to be. I know you don't remember a lot of the things that happened to make me the way I am.... but I stood up for you even when you didn't know it. I believed in you..... even when I was mocked and sometimes burned by the hate of others who thought I was too strict. I stood up for you because I wanted everyone to know that I represented the power within you. Yes..., that was my purpose or so I had thought. I am not so sure what I should represent anymore. It seems I cause you shame at times and that saddens me.

In spite of the things you disagreed with me about me, I allowed you to say whatever hateful things you had to say, yes, I allowed you to discover yourself but somehow, I failed you.... Somehow, I let you down. I could blame a lot of people and a lot of things for that to happen, but I just never thought, that you'd turn on me. I never knew you would someday turn against me too. Do you know how many times I have been torn down and yet I stood back in the midst of danger for you and although broken torn and tattered; I would rise again..... Just for you.

I cannot change your mind after all, it was me who told you to be who you are, I just never knew that you'd turn on me too, I guess I thought we were so much stronger than that...💔

Signed, The United States American Flag.

Violet’s Rant; Brainwashing Your Rights Away


Welcome to the "Mansonian Era". That's right, you heard it here first. Now, I realize the pimple poppers have no clue what that means but I know there are an older generation who know exactly what I am talking about. For those of you who do ...

Bear with me and let me take a minute to explain to the helplessly uneducated. Don’t blame them, they had teachers who told them they shouldn't eat meat because it killed animals and that they should concentrate more on the ozone than the security of their country. They have no idea that their troubles are much greater than what color the grass is or their skin for that matter. Yup, they've had their heads placed in the clouds and they can’t see the sky for the puffy stuff in their heads.


On August 19th, 1969. Sharon Tate was killed by a group of brain washed followers of a man named Charles Manson. Sharon was a rising star, who ironically starred in the movie, "The Eye of the Devil" (1966) where she played a satanic role in a devil worshiping ritual. And she later starred in the very popular movie, "The Valley of the Dolls" (1967) where she chooses to kill herself due to the father of her child’s mental illness (and breast cancer which made her think her baby daddy would no longer want her)......

Sadly, she lived these terrors in real life. When a group of young adults entered her home and created a "Helter Skelter" that shocked and horrified America. But Sharon is not the subject she is the tragedy of brain washed individuals.

Manson, a young man who spent most of his young life in "Boys schools" after his mother went to prison for armed robbery, lived a life of crime, (i.e., car theft, armed robberies and various others.)


He eventually ended up on the streets of San Francisco (Imagine that) as a male prostitute and began to form a "family" of followers. Keep in mind some of these were college educated youngsters who allowed outside interference to mess their heads up with the obsession of killing because someone told them to and let's not forget the psychedelics they used, LSD, heroin, cocaine, often times combined. To make a long story short. Sharon Tate was found by her maid murdered, stabbed to death, along with the child she carried fathered by the famous producer Roman Polanski, the heiress to Folgers coffee, Abigail Fulger as well as two others, and only one survivor who was not in the home. You can do more research on the net but this isn't a book.....


It has been said that Manson had control over their minds.....he was the threat they said... the beginning of blaming someone else for one’s wrong doings. They were all convicted and justifiably so.

There...., that's an overview.

Fast forward to today's youngsters..... it's a sad fact that they are either being brainwashed that they won't survive unless they save the ozone...... whales live, the Siberian tigers live, and elephant tusks are more important than human babies’ lives. And they even offer life termination at no cost. They are being brainwashed into believing they were born without a gender and guess what? Parents who stopped guiding our children are responsible for that. They allowed Hilary’s village to raise them and never injected themselves enough to hear what was being inserted into their gullible minds. Frighteningly enough, before too long everyone will know just how detrimental that was.

Teachers and parents, aren't telling our children what price was paid for, how men sacrificed their lives.... so that they can have their freedoms to cry about anything and everything. No, they are more concerned with which bathroom to use and what gender they are.


Yes, the Mansonian Era is here folks, our young adults have been brainwashed with opinions and mind-altering drugs that make them addicts and our government is loving it. With their attention diverted on things that will not keep America safe, they can now proceed to manipulate them and eventually control them. Young people and some despicable mentors think American workers can afford the 52 trillion-dollar costs of free insurance and our economy will remain strong. A sure sign they didn't learn arithmetic; thanks to calculators in class they never figured out simple math, I guess. They don't know which bathroom to use, which certainly displays Sex- Ed failed them miserably. They use abbreviations for words, and few know how to write in cursive. There goes reading and writing out the window.... And lastly and certainly most importantly, they will soon lose the very rights that allowed them to cry for more, more more.... the democrats are slowly stealing our rights.... censoring social media, telling us our faith is all wrong and the Bible is just a book. Dispute this if you like...... but if Twitter can agree to censor our Presidents tweets, you have a big wakeup call coming if you don’t think your next. Finally, that second amendment right that is so 'scary' to the young liberals....is the only thing that protects us from the bad guy.....oh...., and just in case they failed to teach you government in Class....that amendment was designed to protect you from a government take over. That’s right. You surrender that right.... you surrender all of the others, let's just call it the domino effect.


Yes people, we are now entering the Mansonian Era and if you aren't brainwashed, you're a threat.


Let that sink in.

Violet’s Rant; Democrats Love Making Fools Of Democratic Voters


Well, I wasn't sure exactly what to say this morning but thanks to some knucklehead I am going to throw this at you..... Ignorance is bliss and that's what democrats like.....keeping you uninformed and even worse misinformed. The Governor here in VA has pictures of himself in Blackface on his yearbook... and went as Michael Jackson for Halloween, yet no one says anything....because he's a democrat... yet we know if Donald Trump did that, that would be proof he's a racist right? We currently have 3 anti-American Muslims in our congressional office who are democrats and want to allow anyone in to our country and want to open borders and change our faith.....no one says anything because they are democrats..... Trump has brought prayer back into the White House. He is working towards stopping abortions that take the lives of babies who could live on their own, has decreased unemployment... which could actually give welfare recipients their dignity back and increased the stock market which has renamed us the "Superpower." He is building the wall to keep criminals out and protect YOU. And is supporting our police officers who are in jeopardy of democrat induced hate everyday they work. And you don't see the riots and looting in the streets since he has taken office. Yes, I guess I'd rather have Trump, than a double standard party that says one Governor can go as a black face but a president is prejudice even when there's no evidence of it!!! Abraham Lincoln was a Republican, the man who is responsible for freedoms of people of color. Teddy Roosevelt was a democrat and he was a member of KKK . Please stop listening to people, do your research for crying out loud. You are listening to what people are telling you!!!! You saw Mr. Cummings funeral.... Hillary and Obama made it political..... Trump didn't! Democrats want you to hate, so you won't see beyond that. They want to bring the plantation back... it’s called the government plantation!!! Everything is free but you! It doesn’t care if you're black or white. If you're poor they want to keep you poor. I want jobs for my grandchildren not welfare and my guess is you do too! Now, look at the Democratic Clinton's friends... Anthony Weiner, multiple charges on child pornography, Jeffrey Epstein who just committed suicide by murder in prison for child molestation and Jerry Bean, Obama's friend, who was just charged for sexually abusing young boys. And you think this is a coincidence? GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT AND STOP BEING LED BY LIARS like Schiff who has publicly lied to you yet he's hanging out with Pelosi, Harris, Yang and Waters who are letting their state burn to the ground!!!! and .....Hilary who hid 30,000 emails from the FBI......WHY? and Bill who "did not have sex with that woman" BUT DNA DON'T LIE!!!! The democrats love making fools of democratic voters and I am afraid you have been misinformed and you are a part of their campaign to hold you down and keep you down. I will be at the polls early and just as I did last election... I will spend the day praying for my country and those who are being manipulated.

God bless and be wise.

Violet’s Rant; Getting Rich Off The People They Are Supposed to Serve

Okay .... I didn't want to have to do this, I didn't want to have to go there. This is sensitive material; some will toss their phone across the room or maybe even toss their computer on the floor. But I am going to say it anyway. A lot of folks don't get this but there are people in the White House that have been getting rich for years, not ten or twenty but some nearly 40 years!!!! And they've been doing it on your hard-earned taxes.

That's right all that money they take out of your dollars at McDonalds, Dollar General and various other "I can hardly survive on this job" jobs is going towards their pay and somehow..... while you've been struggling to keep the lights on, they've been becoming millionaires. And guess what else? They have really good medical benefits and a wonderful pension plan that will support them after they are voted out of office and you know what else? They get paid with your tax dollars after you vote them out!!! Yup for the rest of their lives they get paid. To add insult to injury, they want to tell you, they are not going to help you get a better job... they want to keep you down by promising some more free stuff... Now, now don't get too upset because what they don't want you to realize is.....You are an American and you are the one who is control of whether they stay in office or not. That's right, you are an American and if you are sick and tired of working your butt off for a pittance of what they make, it's time to make your voice heard. You want the same dang thing they're getting. A good job, health insurance and a retirement plan. You want to be able to send your kids to college so they can have a better life. Sadly, democrats don't want that for you. It's obvious by the way they have been doing you for years. I mean, Obama was in office for 8 years....where are the jobs and was health insurance free? And if you still couldn't afford it.....Guess what? Yup, he punished you at the end of the year for not getting it and he did that by taking it out of your income taxes!

Then, in recent years some billionaire steps up and says, I am sick and tired of seeing how these rats are polluting our streets with homeless people who are using the bathroom on the streets of San Francisco and Lord let's not forget who is following close behind....New York, our Big Apple has forgotten their own and the Great State of California, where our movie stars live, has abandoned its own people!!! And now they're saying, "Trust me". It’s kind of like that old poster of a black panther sitting on a rock with the words "Trust me" written over its head. Yup, that's exactly what it's like.

Now, if you get all that Then you must realize the reason, they hate our president is because he is creating jobs so you can get out of the poverty you have been in for so long! Man, oh man...if he stays President you might not need their handouts. Then how will they control you? They won't be able to!!!!! And they're really not happy about that because you might vote to give yourself a raise instead of them giving themselves one, you might vote for independence and they won't be able stifle you.

If you feel like I do, you need to go to the polls Tuesday, and you need to push the button of the name with the (R) beside it and make it clear that you don't want their handouts! You don't want the poverty they keep offering you. You want a dang job! You want to buy a new car to get your kids safely up and down the road and you sure as heck don’t want to rely on them the rest of your life!

And I think it's very important that you understand that this isn't about the color of your skin it's about keeping the poor people poor. And remember your president has decreased employment at the lowest in over 50 years. He's the first man that wasn't a lawyer but a businessman. He saw through their behavior and had to set aside his own incredible earnings to run for President and even donates what he makes as president to organizations throughout our country! Now, let's thank him by voting and showing those who are holding you back that you're not as dumb as they think you are. Let's get the rats out of the White House and Americans off the street! And never forget our veterans! God bless and see you at the polls!!

"And The Band Played On." Watching The USA Fade Away.

For over 200 Years Americans have lived in a country that was free and respected. We fought with ourselves and other countries with some even leading to war. Our political process used to work. People were elected into positions to help their constituents and the American people as a whole. We looked up to men and women and honored them with statues and memorials throughout this great nation. WOW, sounds like an awesome place, right? It used to be, or at least I think so.

I remember as a child my mother using a small real to real tape recorder to memorialize speeches by great men like, John F Kennedy, Dr. Martin Luther King and news events from the television so we as children could learn great things from these people of honor, integrity and respect. We idolized these people then and some still do today. Civil Rights and leadership pushing the American people to reach for the stars was not a dream but a reality. We put men on the moon, we stopped segregation and realized that we are one. One in the same; Americans.

Today I sit here after I have watched, for at least the past 10 or so years, our own government representatives, at all levels of Government, take great efforts to destroy the very country we all claim to love. Corruption without action, decisions that are made against the will of the people, violating the basic fundamental rights guaranteed to us under the Constitution and dirty money changing hands as fast as the front runner in a NASCAR race.

I watched today the very political process that is sworn to protect us, used to systematically dismantle the infrastructure of our Republic that has been the cornerstone for over 200 years. All in the name of democracy/socialism. It sickens me that we have become this, allowing politicians that are supposed to serve the people who elected them to office only to watch then get rich by the people they swore to fight to become elected. This is at all levels of Government, from our school boards, count and city governments, state governments and our top offices within the Federal Government. Yet, we sit by and let it happen.

We have the right to vote but less than 20% vote in elections and if the weather is bad even less. Do we need a history lesson, our Constitution starts off with “We the People” the government belongs to all of us? Yet, we can’t make time to see our family or watch your child’s school game or play. Have we all become this uncaring about life and our country? This truly sickens me knowing that we have a Congress spending millions of our tax dollars on a witch hunt over a phone call. Yet, we have people walking the streets from past administrations that have committed sedition and treason against our country, and we don’t want to vote or be bothered.

I am starting the feel like I am on the Titanic, we are going down, while the band played on. People we are losing our country, our freedoms, and allowing good people to go down. We used to fight for what we believed in, what we stood for, we died for in the past, and millions of people lost their lives over this concept and “The Band Plays On”. We spend money we don’t have and raise taxes and “The Band Plays On” we sit in our homes watching television while the government sworn to protect us plan to take away our rights and “The Band Played On”.

People, you don’t have to like me, you don’t have to support me. All I ask is look at what is happening right in front of us. Before this band that is playing, finishes.

Gloucester County Supervisor Chris Hutson. Liberal or Conservative

Chris Hutson is endorsed by the Gloucester County Republican Party. Wonder if they know he is also endorsed by the Democrats? His name is listed on House of Delegates Democrat candidate Ella Webster's political mailing

Is Mr. Hutson a Liberal or a Conservative? You decide.


In my honest opinion, Mr. Hutson is more liberal than conservative.

Corrupt Race In Gloucester County’s Abingdon District? You Decide.


Gloucester County’s School Board has a long reputation of just following along with the school administrator’s agenda instead of addressing the concerns of and aligning with the visions of their constituents. Apparently, school administration does not have any problem with manipulating the School Board member election and appointment processes. On June 12, 2019 Abingdon District School Board member Randy Burak’s intention of not seeking reelection was announced publicly. This was one day after the deadline for candidates to file the necessary documents so their names would appear on the November 5th ballot. Unfortunately, no one in the Abingdon District filed to be a candidate. This was an ideal setup for the School Board to be able to appoint an Abingdon resident of their and the school administrator’s choosing.

Fortunately for the residents of the Abingdon District and Gloucester County as a whole, Jane Wenner stepped up to run as a write-in candidate for the Abingdon district. That obviously did not sit right with the school system hierarchy so something had to be done to keep Jane Wenner from being elected by the people. That “something” is Mr. Burak’s decision to run as a write-in candidate against Jane Wenner. You see, certain people do not want Jane Wenner to be elected because as they put it, “She does not align with the current School Board’s visions.”

Mr. Burak entering the race is just another ploy to set the stage for the School Board to be able to appoint another School Board member. (Much like the shenanigans taking place in the Ware district School Board and Supervisor races.) All Mr. Burak has to do is get elected, attend a couple of meetings after the first of the year and resign off to retirement in another place. Then the School Board can appoint an Abingdon District member of their and the school administrator’s choosing.

I don’t know about you, but I believe I would be voting for Jane Wenner on November 5th if I lived in the Abingdon District.

Gloucester County, Virginia Voter’s Debacle



Election time has arrived again, who is best suited for the positions? The school system is now in the spotlight with two seats up for grabs in Ware and Abingdon districts.


The school board for many years has never challenged the superintendent. There is a historical record of yes votes without discussion or rejections. Now at this election a phenomenal process took place, a resignation by the board chairman, replaced by the Ware District member, and the Abingdon District member who decided not to seek reelection.


Two seats open, both to be filled by acclamation, one by ballot and one by write-in. Fair and simple. Now, hold on voters of these districts, the wind of clarity and opportunity for a fresh breeze in the sails has died.


What! Yes, the current Abingdon member decides to challenge the write-in candidate in his district after deciding not to run again. Why the change of heart? What voters need to understand are the process and politics of the board. Once elected, sworn in and attending a couple of meetings, he can resign. This ploy allows the sitting board to selection a “member of the club” who shares their thinking. Do you really want this same machine control over the next four years? Now is your chance to fill the sail with a fresh breeze.


Don’t leave: a similar situation has arrived at the very last minute in the Ware District. Now you have a candidate named on the ballot and a last-minute write-in to consider.


Now comes the hard question. You the voter must ask yourself who is the engineer behind this charade. Ask who will be the loser should it succeed: the taxpayer, the student, or the county overall?
