Your too stupid to buy a car

Steve Hemmingsen showed off his far-left pompous elitism with a column regarding the Dan Nelson bankruptcy. Here is the introduction:

This Dan Nelson Automotive soap opera once again points out South Dakota's total indifference to the plight of the ordinary working person, the one who probably got "C"s in school, didn't make the cut in college, maybe smokes and plays video lottery too much and is too busy trying to keep his or her family together to worry about the big picture: Iraq, the stock market, even tomorrow's weather.

The "ordinary working person, the one who probably got "C"s in school, didn't make the cut in college" are not capable of keeping up on current affairs according to Hemmingsen. And based on the ending, it looks like Hemmingsen believes the stupid working class don’t know enough to get out of sun to prevent from getting burned:

I seem to remember Larry Long promising to be more consumer-oriented when the voters let him and former Attorney General Mark Barnett switch jobs? The state's role in this mushrooming Dan Nelson Automotive fiasco, in which the victims are the very people who need the state's protection the most, doesn't show much evidence of that new consumerist zeal, just more "business" as usual as the victims stand financially naked in a hot noon day sun.

So Hemmingsen puts forward the Democrat’s belief that the working class people are too stupid to know that they are getting burnt when buying a car, so the government is supposed to protect the idiots. And Denise Ross and the far-left commenters on Mount Blogmore think Hemmingsen is some kind of genius. And Todd Epp is giving this the must read of his must reads.

Actually Hemmingsen is the idiot, not the working class. These people are a lot smarter than Hemmingsen and his fellow far-left socialists want to give them credit for. The MSM thinks these people are so stupid that they can mislead them as they attack capitalism in an effort to forward the Democrat’s agenda of socialism. What the working class needs to understand is that the Democrats are not for the working class, except for the ones working in government. In additon, the Democrats' big government regulations makes it more difficult for the working class to move up the economic ladder by starting a business of their own.

Hemmingsen stupidity is also evident in his premise that the working class needs protection from businesses such as Dan Nelson Automotive. It has been reported that over 60% of Nelson’s customers successfully paid off their loans. Anybody with half a brain would know that that would require people with a job. Most of the ones who had difficulty paying off their loans were ones who did not hold a job, and/or lived a lifestyle beyond their means. I know these kinds of people. Having the finer things in life override paying off loans made to finance their lifestyles. I have been burned by these people myself.

Another point that Hemmingsen completely ignored was the fact that the Iowa Attorney General’s actions against Dan Nelson Automotive resulted in the bankruptcy and hundreds of the working class losing their jobs. The Attorney General that caused more problems for the working class resides in Iowa, not South Dakota.

Now take note of a Todd Epp post regarding a Labor Day Democrat organized media campaign attacking John Thune for being "anti-worker". It was John Thune who protected the jobs of many South Dakotans who work in the gun industry from frivolous lawsuits that Democrat activist Attorney Generals such as Tom Miller and Eliot Spitzer use to bankrupt businesses due to actions of the irresponsible. The anti-worker protest should be directed at the Democrat’s socialist agenda that attacks capitalism and America’s free market enterprise system.

You can depend on Sibby Online to dissect their actions on Labor Day and expose the South Dakota MSM’s promotion of Democratic propaganda. The Democrat’s belief that we are too stupid to figure out their lies is the reason why they have been losing elections. They even think we are too stupid to buy a car.
