Destroying Ourselves

11/13/2019

0 Comments

 
    We are a nation set on destroying ourselves.  Politicians divided us, only concerned with getting elected or re-elected.  We send our best, brightest, and bravest to fight around the world with no clear endgame in place, other than to line the pockets of, as President Eisenhower said decades ago, “the military-industrial complex.”  We allow are jobs to be sent overseas, while our standard of living here declines.
    China owns us.  They poison the food our pets eat, possibly our food as well, they are the leading polluter in the world, spy on us, steal our technology, and basically make everything we use.  Yet our leaders turn a blind eye to it all in the name of “free trade,” or “boosting our economy,” or my favorite, “job creation.”  
    Our own government uses a slight of hand that makes professional magician envious.  While our nation burns they hold hearings on the NFL, MLB, and Hollywood. Have you noticed, while your favorite Hollywood star/starlet are testifying in front of Congress, or representing us in the United Nations, your basic freedoms and liberties are disappearing?
    The next “most important election of our lifetime” is just around the corner.  The majority will line up and vote for their party looking for solutions to problems their party created. Draconian election laws keep third parties off the ballot, and the downward spiral continues.
    It is not true that we get the government we vote for; we actually get the government that the government allows us to vote for.

    I only worry about the things I can control; as I control nothing, I have no worries.
