Hi Folks:
I've recently had several people respond to my emails in a negative manner. It's nice to get responses, any response is good because at least someone is reading my emails. And.....maybe thinking about the issues that are so important to our families and our country! So many people are not thinking at all! Now, there are all kinds of things coming off the Internet politically every day. Some I don't necessarily believe, others I think may be true, and some I know to be true or untrue. I pass on many, because this may be the only way to get people's attention as to what's happening in this country. We are in trouble folks! Not simply economically or with the housing, or even with credit. We are in dire danger of becoming a socialist country and many of our far left and even so-called centrists or moderates are attempting to put us there. I believe that this is not a good direction for our country to go.
Our country became great because of the people who came here and why they came here. Yes, some come across our borders with the very same reason, but this is a different time. It's a time of terror and war against that terror, and this is no longer a country of vast areas the needs opening up by pioneers. Most of the people who came here, came willingly, and came for religious freedom, adventure, for monetary reasons, or to escape from the settled countries and governments of Europe or Asia. They were a strong, daring, and intelligent people. They all valued freedom. Freedom from whatever the situation they were coming from.
Our people after about one hundred and fifty years in the new world, in 1776, declared their freedom from, not only King George III, but from Europe itself........and after much fighting and many killed, even with family member against family member they made the freedom stick. After a couple of years with the loose government they had, the big question of states versus a central government came up and they settled that peaceably to create The United States of America. In a few years they had to fight for their freedom on the seas, again against England, and our capitol was burned, and we really again were fighting for our independence and freedom. We fought hard and won and even extended our freedom to the seas. Then just over 50 years later, the question of states rights versus federal control came up again. After many thousands of citizens were killed on both sides of the war called the Civil War it was won by the North and the question of Federal vs. States powers was finally settled. Now, often this is still a question among us citizens, but we don't physically fight about it any more. We have laws and people who represent us in both the states and the federal level for these questions. And these people have become one of the problems we are now facing.
Now before the Civil War and later, we have have welcomed many immigrants to this country. They mostly applied for citizenship legally and, though they had to learn our language and our ways, they came and they survived and many prospered. They assimilated into our society and became American. I know that many Native Americans won't like what I say, but as a conquered people the worst thing that ever happened to them was to put them on reservations. That act kept them in poverty, ignorance, and dependent on the government for many, many years. That was a big mistake and kept those people separate from the rest of American citizens all these years. Well, many are finally changing that dependency, and creating their real place in our society. This is as it should be and I applaud them. This shows that having citizens who don't assimilate into our society is detrimental to them. There is a great effort to let people who cross our borders illegally, both criminal and those who wish to work, to be given citizenship and to not have to assimilate into our society and not become Americans. They say that we should become a country with two different languages/cultures. What is the reasoning behind this kind of thinking? What is the agenda of those who wish this to happen? There is an agenda ........ there always is you know.
Have you ever wondered why very wealthy people keep telling us that our government should help us? Why would a wealthy person tell us that we should tax the wealthy more and more? Wouldn't that be hurting themselves? Don't they know that only companies, corporations, or wealthy people hire people to work for them? Why do people like Mr. Obama tell us that we need help and that he's going to make the government help us and create many more government programs if he's elected president? Why does the House leader Pelosi halt every possible ruling that might help us poor people with rhetoric like "we need to tax the rich more". She's quite wealthy in her own right as is her husband. Why doesn't our own congress do something to help us poor people be able to purchase gas in order to get to work? Why let us continue to put our food into creating fuel? Why let our food prices and gas prices continue to climb until we don't have money enough to buy food and gas for our car at the same time? What's happening? Well, as you might know, government also hires people to work....usually at a minimum wage....do you thing maybe they might want us all on the government payroll?
Well, it seems to me that many of companies/corporations who began and grew in our country, no longer consider themselves American. They look at a world market and think of the possibilities for expansion there. I applaud them for their growth and energetic abilities. I don't applaud them for their apparent discarding of their American loyalties. In fact when it's as apparent as it is with some corporations, then I condemn them! It was also my ancestors that gave them the opportunities they've had in this country by defending this country against it's enemies in the revolution and the war-times past and present. It seems that many people who represent us in various state legislatures and the Congress of the United States (house and senate) also consider themselves not only citizens of this country but "citizens of the world". Have they said that? Well, I don't think so (maybe some have), not in so many words. None-the-less when you listen to what they say, and look ahead and analyze the results of the direction they are pushing this country, then it's obvious what they are thinking. They are caught up in the idea of a one-world government. That is their long-term agenda, and they will attempt to bring it all about in any manner that they can. That manner may be to make us go to the city and work in a government job.....do you think? Is it possible that this could happen....well according to the news many are moving into the city right now......
If these "Liberals" can halt all growth in this country by various means then people will vote our country away and not even know it. If they can bring our people to starvation, to poverty, to complete government dependence they will be happy. They use phony tactics and key words to scare people like "big business", "the wealthy", "big oil", "global warming", "destroying the environment", "the poor get poorer and the rich get richer." They always neglect to tell us that they are the rich, that they use more fuel in a day than we do in a month, that they throw away more in a day than we have in a week, and that they are the only ones, because of their wealth, that can go to some of the environments they expect us to be so concerned about. Why do they have such an agenda as to want to break our country? Why would they wish to bring it to it's knees? Why aren't they proud of our/their country?
Many of these people are influenced by Europe and their wish to be cultured or sophisticated as they perceive Europeans to be. We know that many Europeans still after these hundreds of years still consider America to be an up-start country and they look snobbishly at us. Some feel guilty that they inherited money from their families and still are not willing to give it to me and you, so they look at ways to think lofty thoughts like, wouldn't it be nice to have a one-world government? Many have really done nothing to be proud of. They have only spent their inherited money, and danced around the world creating nothing themselves. They consequently allow themselves to be used by other more energetic wealthy people who are working on their own agenda like Mr. Soros. Some of these are United Nations personnel. These influential people may not even be from this country at all. Well, I may be wrong on some of these suppositions, but I'm obviously not wrong in understanding that these people are not out to help us poor people.
What could be the results of creating a Socialist State out of the United States of America? Well, we all know that this country has been great because of the innovative ideas of our citizens. The creative abilities of free people can not be topped. The Soviet Union, although it became powerful after the murders of the former ruling peoples of Russia and after WW II, could not compete with the free countries of the world. Foremost among those free countries was the United States of America. Only we landed people on the moon. To much religious control stifles creativity, too much government control also limits creativity in it's citizens. We should be looking to the stars, well, or at least the planets, with ideas of living there and growing as a race instead of making our food into fuel, drilling for our own oil instead of depending on other countries (some who hate us) for our energy, making more nuclear power plants instead of having blackouts (which they say will happen in New York this year), we should mine our own minerals instead of being dependent on South America and Africa, we should build cars, make steel, create more in our own country instead of outsourcing and importing everything, and we should further our children's American Dream instead of taking it away.
Why do these people who are trying to hurt our country still time-after-time keep getting voted into office? It's got to be simply ignorance on the part of voters, or have the communist ideas of creating the large bureaucracies in order to get people used to taking orders came true? Are we all so used to taking orders and not thinking about what the results of our election votes might be that we are ripe for the communist takeover? Maybe people are so used to not having the Soviet Union to face each day that they think there is no enemy out there now? Have any of you ever looked at the United Nations looming large on the horizon? Do you ever notice who and which countries are usually listed to be in control of various aspects of their world agenda? You might find it very enlightening if you did. If you think the Communist Ideals are dead, then you are dead wrong! Don't forget that the most populous country in the world is Communist and we still have a Communist Party in our own country. Also Socialism is the younger brother of Communism.
Anyway, enough for now...this is very tiring....I hope that I've helped somebody to think or consider what I've said above....I don't care if you agree with me 100% but do you find anything that you think could be possible? What do you think differently....is everything like that song, Que Sera, Sera, whatever will be, will be, the future's not ours to see, Que Sera, Sera"? or perhaps, the one "Don't worry, be happy"....? Well, lots of luck at the gas station or the grocery store...
