In all deference to your personage, as well as your age, I respectfully disagree with you.
Perhaps you have forgotten the words,
( and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God).
These are not words just thrown together on any old piece of paper.
They mean something. So much so, millions of people have given there a very life to preserve this republic, from its very founding.
I can only speak for my self. The two most important reasons this country has been and still is great, (( Freedom and the Republic )).
Freedom to do, say, go, where, and how we want etc.
The republic with all of its many aspects, allows us all to elect representatives to make laws that are needed to have a country like ours, function well.
The base problem in our country, is not because you think it is a republic or not. Its not the freedom we enjoy. Its not unions, big business, small business, banks, wall street, schools, the feds, law enforcement, the military, money, jobs or no jobs, welfare, open boarders, energy, imports or exports.
Our base problem is very simple. And if you want to correct it, v**e out the people that will not do there job.
The Full Congress, senators and representatives,
maneuvered us into this mess, and we, as a people collected together, let them do it. We dropped the ball, we shut our eyes, we all stopped listening. It was not just you, or me, but all of us. So very busy with our own lives.
The worst of it is, these people that we put in charge of us all, to do what is right, failed us in so many ways.
Just look at this forum. We dont all agree, and on so many points, it makes ones head spin some times. Where not all right or all wrong. But that is a good thing. But the people we have hired to run our country better dam well be right all the time. And if they dont, we have the right to v**e them out. I find it very strange, the general population knows whats right or wrong, yet our elected representatives fail so miserable at it. But they are so very good at protecting there own status. There jobs, come before the will of the very people they swore to protect.
Blaming this one, or that one, is an exorcize in futility. It makes us all feel better, but in the end, this is just what our officials want us to do. That way we are all distracted from going after the ones that perpetrate all this, in the first place.
So I will conclude with this. Remember, we have a very important e******n coming up this year. Look very carefully at the representatives and senators that are on your b****t. And v**e with your head. Learn what these people do and have done. Who and what they v**ed for. Party does not matter.
RETW Happy New Year
