Stuck on Stupid

How do you make sense of people that have lost all touch with reality?

• Overheard comment. "Either the government can pay for it, or we can pay for it.". Hello. Who exactly pays for the stuff the government pays for? Oh, that's right. That would be us.
• The real role / value of big business. Socialism / communism alive and well in the United States. This guy is positively sickening.
