Wild Pigs,,,There was a Chemistry professor in a large college that had some exchange students in the class. One day while the class was in the lab the Prof noticed one young man (exchange student) who kept rubbing his back, and stretching as if his back hurt.,,, The professor asked the young man what was the matter. The student told him he had a bullet lodged in his back. He had been shot while fighting communists in his native country who were trying to overthrow his country's government and install a new communist government.,,,In the midst of his story he looked at the professor and asked a strange question. He asked, 'Do you know how to catch wild pigs?',,,

The professor thought it was a joke and asked for the punch line. The young man said this was no joke. 'You catch wild pigs by finding a suitable place in the woods and putting corn on the ground. The pigs find it and begin to come everyday to eat the free corn When they are used to coming every day, you put a fence down one side of the place where they are used to coming. When they get used to the fence, they begin to eat the corn again and you put up another side of the fence. They get used to that and start to eat again. You continue until you have all four sides of the fence up with a gate in the last side. The pigs, which are used to the free corn, start to come through the gate to eat; you slam the gate on them and catch the whole herd.,,,

Suddenly the wild pigs have lost their freedom. They run around and around inside the fence, but they are caught. Soon they go back to eating the free corn. They are so used to it that they have forgotten how to forage in the woods for themselves, so they accept their captivity.,,,The young man then told the professor that is exactly what he sees happening to America . The government keeps pushing us toward socialism and keeps spreading the free corn out in the form of programs such as supplemental income, tax credit for unearned income,,,,tobacco subsidies, dairy subsidies, payments not to plant crops (CRP), welfare, medicine, drugs, etc. while we continually lose our freedoms - just a little at a time.,,,

One should always remember: There is no such thing as a free Lunch! A politician will never provide a service for you cheaper than you can do yourself.,,,If you see all of this wonderful government 'help' is a problem confronting the future of democracy in America , you might want to send this on to your friends. If you think the free ride is essential to your way of life then you will probably delete this email, but God help you when the gate slams shut!,,,In this "very important" election year, listen closely to what the candidates are promising you - just maybe you will be able to tell who is about to slam the gate on America,,,,

Unfortunately they have not only spread free corn, but they have taken the young and discouraged thinking and the love of learning, replacing it with indoctrination. The schools even teach lies.

This site shows “ a sample of the errors, dubious interpretations, biases, and irregularities... from textbooks that major publishers like Prentice-Hall and Glencoe/McGraw-Hill have been selling by the tens of millions to public elementary, middle, and high schools throughout the United States.

And ”the Bush Administration is issuing grants through the Department of Education for the UN's International Baccalaureate program which provides a curriculum that teaches our children to be global citizens rather than Americans.”

Is it any wonder the average young American doesn't know the truth when he trips over it? The US public schools are doing a more through job than the Nazis did. I guess they learned from their mistakes.

Here is the REAL story of Thanksgiving which is never ever taught in school.

I have read that story of Thankgiving. It brings back the true nature of what it is to live here and what it should be.
