America is on a cataclysmic self destructive course:
* Massive expansion of the federal government and a concomitant lessening, if not outright destruction, of our infividul freedoms to choose the course of our lives.
* Massive increase of our national debt, risking the viability of our economy, mortgaging our lives and foreclosing on our future.
* Engaging in foreign wars without any sense of how to win them, costing us lives and national pride and morale, and impairing our national defense.
* Psychologically and financially undertaking without restraint the problems of the world while being incapable of resolving our own.
* Obliterating the founding American ideal of the sovereignty of each individual and replacing it with the horrors and restraints and duties of global collectivism.
To date, the internal defense against the pending collapse of America has been but vocal, rhetoric in Congress and in the media. And though it may have slowed a bit our country's demise as a nation of personal expression and hope and unlimited potential, the onslaught relentlessly continues. History tells us what must be done.
In Biblical days, the Jewish people escaped enslavement by an exodus from Egypt.
When early Americans found themselves to be under despotic and tyrranical rule, they declared it "their Right...their Duty, to throw off such Government" and revolted.
When the South felt that its views of slavery (wrong as they were) and of states' rights were threatened by the North, it seceded from the Union.
When Rosa Parks felt that her life was not valued and her rights not recgnized by the government, she refused to move to the back of the bus, and changed our history.
I, for one, am not willing to allow the government to tell me how I must live my life and that I am but a pawn in servitude to the collective, what benefits I may purchase and enjoy, how my money will be forcefully taken from me and given to others, how my children's lives will be constrained and burdened by unConstitutionally imposed obligations, how my fellow citizens must die in undeclared wars that are fought as determined by untrained, unknowledgeable, civilian officials who make politically motivated decisions, and more.
The time for talk is over.
