The Hee Haw Mentality
                    
     There are many political systems around the world and they all have one thing in
common.  They rely upon being able to cower 60% of the population into agreeing with them. Perception management has indicated that this percentage of people will be politically naive, unquestioning and stupidly agree with anything proposed.  The political motive is not to serve the people but the expansion of their totalitarian regimes.  The 60% is the majority.  Thus, the remaining 40% can be safely ignored.  It's called the Hee-Haw Mentality.
     Hee-Haw enables silly legislation to be introduced.  Recent examples in Godzone
(New Zealand) were the proposed Fart Tax that would make farmers pay for their cows
belching and farting.  Luckily this was dropped after worldwide publicity turned Godzone
into a laughing stock.  Sillier still, legislation was recently passed making all licenced
premises non smoking.
     The public weren't consulted because the Hee Haw's in power knew that they had the
numbers.  There were a few pressure groups supporting the ban and certain government
departments donated funds so the groups could lobby faltering politicians.  Bureaucrats
depend on the political system for their livelihood.  Thus, they needed to support the lobbyists to maintain their lifestyle.  Unaffected, other members of the Hee Haw Mentality were too dumb to notice.  If bribing politicians with public money is not corruption, what the hell is it?
     The politicians have dumbed down education to ensure the majority of kids are not
taught to think for themselves.  This ensures numbskull compliance because they don't know any different.  However, stupid politicians don't last very long but truth and the written word last forever.  So who's the Hee Haw, Hee Haw?
     The self-righteous brigade couldn't lose because it's well known that only about 15%
of the population regularly inhabit licence premises.  But they had purposely forgotten that
smoking and drinking have been soul mates for thousands of years.  If they are so convinced of their righteous superiority, why don't they start their own non smoking bars and see how long they stay in business.  You can bet your boots the politically correct but financially realistic banking system won't back them.
     I wrote a letter to my local paper stating that the legislation was promoted by mental
retards.  Sadly, a lady irrelevantly complained her son was a little backward and took my
letter as a personal insult.  One non smoking lobbyist haughtily stated that Godzone now
leads the world in anti smoking legislation.  Whoop-de-do and Hallelujah.  What a load of
crap!  I respectfully suggest that the only thing Godzone will ever lead is the promotion of the Hee Haw Mentality. 
     Many California and New York licenced premises are no longer financially viable, so
why be a mindless copycat?  What about business failures and resulting unemployment?  If somebody deliberately jumps in the harbour and drowns.  Are they going to do the same? Talk about the blind leading the blind.
     They also forget that the minority 40% are business people that market their products
to the Hee Haw Mentality because they're silly enough to be persuaded by repetitive
advertising. 
     Patriotically speaking and least we forget.  All wars are fought by the Hee Haw
Brigade.  They die in their millions to ensure the 40% get richer.  They haven't got the nous to see that killing the current villains keeps the multi billions flowing.  Armies of liberation my ass!  It's simply an excuse to make money by making mass murder acceptable.  Have a guess whose taxes fund the wars that kill more people than smoking has or ever will.
     There's nothing wrong with the concept of reducing smoking for health reasons.  So
by all means educate the kids but let the older smoker die a natural death.  Smokers don't normally live as long and pay billions in extra taxes to fund old age healthcare for the non smoker.  Only fools bite the hand that feed them.  After all, tobacco is a legal product and smoking is a personal pleasure.  And what about booze, prostitution and gambling machines? Are they going to ban them as well?  But then the Hee Haw Mentality are probably silly enough to risk blindness by encouraging masturbation.  It seems to fit their profile.
    
However I believe in my fellow man and will defend the non smokers until their death for my right to my opinion.  
If you believe in everything Govt does. Don't read this epistle.
Is this you?
PS. As at 30/12/03. New York State has granted a non smoking waiver to Damon's Party House  in Cicero because business has DROPPED 40% IN THREE MONTHS. It is the first of many applications. Remember that the booze prohibiton after the First World War was the start of organised crime in the USA. Didn't Al Capone do well?
