On Our Way to Socialism

Since the 1920s and perhaps longer, the Socialists (we used to call Communists) have been trying to get control over the U. S. Government. The Communists couldn't defeat us by might, so they decided to take us down without firing a shot. Many ways were tried and many failed, because we were aware of what they were up to. Sometimes it took a while to catch on, but we succeeded in twarting it. Many attempts have been made to get their foot in the door through health care, but again, we were able to hold it back.

Then we elected a president who was "hell-bent" on getting health care legislation passed and he surrounded himself with all sorts of people who had the same agenda and they deceived, coerced, bribed and otherwise persuaded enough of our elected officials to get it through. Their leaders said they "won." Who did they win over? Who was 73% against this new health care bill? U. S. (us). Our elected representatives beat us? So they won over our objections. They defeated the people they were elected to serve. The shoe is on the wrong foot. Is that government of the people, by the people and for the people? Is this a dictatorship?

From all appearances we are on our way to Socialism. I certainly hope not, but that's the way it looks. We are far along the path to becoming a "welfare state." Why do I care? Well for starters, I love this country and it's people. Secondly, my wife and I have four children and twenty grandchildren. We would like for them to have a shot at the "American dream," and the opportunity to live in a free nation, not on welfare; to be able to make their living in a free market system which has been the hallmark of the United States. A shining city on a hill that has become a lot less shiney.

We used to be the largest producer of merchandise in the world. Made in the USA meant something. Now we are being surpassed by China. The direction we are headed is financially unsustainable. Is there no one in the U. S. who knows how to get us back on track?

If the United States of America is to survive, we must put the brakes on this movement toward Socialism, where everyone feels entitled to get paid without working and we must get back to our Constitutional roots or we will become a third-world nation. Heaven forbid.

Socialism is totally against Christianity. The principals of our Constitution were largely founded upon the holy scriptures. They are the principals that work best to have a fair and decent society. Our forefathers knew this and diligently prayed that we would never depart from it, for they knew that it would lead to ruin.

We need a huge revival in this country to get us back on track. That would give us the back-bone to stand up against the evil that exist in this country.

My opinion.
