We Know Better!

"With the loyal you show yourself loyal; with the blameless you show yourself blameless; with the pure you show yourself pure, and with the crooked you show yourself perverse." - Samuel 22:26/27

And after that great piece of wisdom, my mind wanders off unto a totally different subject. Or is it? The election race is in full swing and many of us are rightly concerned about the state of our nation. I've heard that government is broken. Ah contraire! The government is in great shape, it's the politicians that are messing everything up. Please note that I didn't point the finger at either side. They are both equally guilty.

One side believes in bigger government.

The other side believes in bigger government as well.

So what's the difference? Well, it's in the nature of the government they desire. The one side collects your taxes and redistributes it for social justice, and economic parity. The other side believes it's job is to collect your taxes and increase our defense spending. The only thing they have in common is they love to collect your money and use it to serve their purpose. Meanwhile our money is being squandered and our nation is in debt. That's not how our government was designed to operate. This is a perversion of the original design.

So since both sides have an agenda outside the original game plan, who is to blame and how do we fix it? Well frankly, the blame lies in "We the People," because when we get right down to it, we elected and promote this behavior.

How do we fix it? Education, and not from the government. Is anyone naive enough to think elected officials are going to enlighten the population to the scam they are running? It's our responsibility to become informed, to give ourselves a "Thomas Jefferson Education," (self taught). If we continue to tolerate this behavior from the politicians inside our government, we can expect more of the same. Our only weapon is education and personal the responsibility to improve.

And with information you show yourself informed.........

God Bless!
