A Gated Community

Polite society expects everyone to be good and punish those who are not good. Good being defined as living a lifestyle where rewards are earned – not entitlements just for being good. Most western nations compel citizens to earn their own way and charitably help those who struggle. However, liberalism has evolved into treating felons almost like visiting dignitaries, to wit: our own taxpayer-financed penal system. We allow those convicted of heinous crimes to luxuriate in an obligation-free, communist-style gated community with air-conditioning access to TV, college degrees and health privileges that even some of our good citizens don’t have.
