Can We Save This Country From Ourselves?

When you wake up in the morning, what is the first thing you think about? For some people it’s “Damn, do I have to go to work again?”, hit snooze and roll over for another 5 to 9 minutes. Sadly, for many more people in the world it’s the fear that they may be next. Next to be forced to do horrible things against their will, next to be killed merely for a belief they may have, next because someone who can do harm, does… Is that the world you want to live in? Not Me! For many, they live with a real fear of what will happen to them, Always. Many Americans live with a fear, but is it real fear? For some it is. What will happen to my children or myself today after we leave the house? How will I feed my family, how will I get the rent paid, why can’t I get a job? There seems to be a lot of places looking to hire. How can the unemployment rate “number” be so low, yet there are so many looking for work at places who can’t find labor?

Here’s where I lose some readers. Most of whom say they have an open mind and welcome new opinions. Some leave if their feelings get hurt, they get mad and throw a tantrum. Toughen up Buttercup. This is life and you aren’t really living it! GASP! How can I say that?!! Allow me to explain. You don’t live in reality if you can’t see how well you have it in the USA! Some neighborhoods suck, I get that, but for most of the country life is easy (maybe too easy? That could be the problem!). Compare idealisms in the US to other countries for which there seems to be a lot of young (and some older, surprisingly) persons wanting to emulate. Personally, I enjoy my remaining freedoms that get fewer every year. If these people, who wish to live in other countries, really knew how good they have it (and yes, you will have to work no matter where you live. NOTHING is free) they would shut up and start living life as it was intended. ** Don’t know what I mean? look up “The Declaration of Independence” or maybe even elaborate on “The Constitution of the United States”. Perhaps you want to read more about “The Bill of Rights”, maybe you would like to understand what Civil Rights are a bit more. Please read some, if not all (it takes awhile to read, I’d do it over a couple months) of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States. There you will find a bunch of words, superbly put to paper, that should be known and understood by ALL Americans!!

So, where am I going with this ramble? Socialism. How many people REALLY know what it is? Are you upset because you have to “work” for what you have (I use work loosely for many young people, most under 35). Sadly, they would rather have it given to them for free. That does not mean the rest of us should accept their “logic.” We like it here the way it once was… There are plenty of socialist countries who would love to accept you into their culture! I hear Russia needs citizens!... Seriously, do they think if they get stuff for free now, it just gets better when the rest of us who do work decide to quit? THEN WHAT? With nobody left to run the corporate hamster wheel, who will pay for all that free stuff!!?? Hmmm. See that grim, dim light? They will be forced to work, live in sub-standard housing, eat whatever food(ish) substance that is offered. And then have the nerve to whine about their fate. Because there will be nobody left to stop the monster from eating everything in which we all used to feel so warm and fuzzy about. That’s what will happen. If we refuse to make sure of what we love about THIS country and our culture as the United States of America is not tampered with, our heritage will be forgotten (just like some of our history and historic statues thanks to public education). That’s when we will all suffer a tragic fate that could have been prevented!
