Question: Who Am I?
Answer: Frustrated American Citizen! Why? ... Because of all the political things that are happening in this country today.
I often think of my ancestors, as having the 'good life' working the farms and digging in copper mines. However I suppose the argument would be ... maybe they had a "Simple Life" but not the "Good Life".
At sixty four years old, should I be thinking about 'just me'? or should I be thinking about my country? With these basic questions, I need a simple answer.
If it is all about me, should I give a 'Rip' about this country?
Well consider this "I Am This Country"! I have worked hard for a lot of years to support (paying taxes and voting) this countries agenda (FREEDOM) and now it feels like the country is turning on me. You know! Like deteriorating, right in front of me! This is extremely frustrating!
Can this country, The United States of America, ever go back to the "simple life"? and still be the "Greatest Country in the World"? Supporting the principals of "Freedom - Constitution - Bill of Rights, for the people"!
We need politicians that stick to the original written rules and not bending the rules of The United States Constitution.
In addition, the often radical interpretation of these original rules (The Constitution of The United States of America) by the Supreme Court and with the support of the politicians further disrupt our "Freedom".
Many Washington politicians including the President have expressed that the Constitution of the United States of America is a living thing and it should evolve to fit the times. Now! If that bothers you, we are getting somewhere.
This country needs to return to a "Conservative Country". Without a doubt, The United States of America, is the most FREE in the world. Freedom to do what you want and to be what you want. However the 'FREE' ironically comes at a price.
Today, in this complex world the principals that go with "Freedom" are loosing ground. People are not paying attention to the cost of freedom.
Politicians today are "selling out" the American Citizens. That's because the American Citizens are not paying attention to how Politicians are passing bills. Passing bills today, do two things, Regulate (Control of your life) and spend money (Taxing You). "Total control of your life". Now! If this bothers you ... We are really getting somewhere.
So if you understand this so far ... It won't be hard to understand the incredible control of all aspects of the "American Population". Soon, we will be considered a flock of sheep, with multiple Shepard's (Our Washington Politicians). I personally want to call this control "Socialists Control" however a different and growing interpretation is ... "Progressive". The definition of a "Progressive Agenda" is socialism that eats away at freedom one "Freedom" at a time. Not in a big hurry, only the big goal in focus "Socialism".
In the "Progressive" time, we as American Citizens, will not have a vote? Just a radical thought!
I don't know if there is enough American Citizens out there in The United States of America today, that could band together with a 'radical' simple agenda? ... Washington, give us back the America that our founding fathers put together with the "Constitution of the United States of America"?
Washington ... Give us back the "Constitution of The United States of America".
Washington Please ... Give us back the "Constitution of The United States of America".
