The Demon Screwtape: "Whatever men expect they soon come to think they have a right to: the sense of disappointment can, with very little skill on our part, be turned into a sense of injury." C. S. Lewis

The mindset of entitlements has bankrupt a nation. For want of virtue the great institutions of the nation from Wall Street to Capitol Hill, and from sea to shining sea, have succumbed to the lust of greed and self-aggrandizement. I suspect that there will have to be a new name coined to describe the days ahead.
"Don't be misled—you cannot mock the justice of God. You will always harvest what you plant." Galatians 6:7 NLT
A little neglect may breed great mischief:
For want of a nail the shoe was lost,
For want of a shoe the horse was lost,
For want of a horse the rider was lost,
For want of a rider the battle was lost,
For want of a battle the Kingdom was lost,
And all for the want of a horseshoe nail.
