HANDOUT, the collective and govt. control over more and more aspects of our lives?
Any honest study of history shows what we once were and what we have become.
Are the liberal schools to blame?
WHEN will we come to regret handing over so much authority over our lives to the govt?When Did America Change From a Land of Self Reliance, Capitalism and Individual Freedom to the Land of the?When politicians learned they could buy votes with new entitlement programs, and people forgot that they have to steal from someone else to provide these unconstitutional social programs. The constitution says that government is to promote the general welfare, not provide it.
The difference is government is only allowed to encourage people and organizations to help less fortunate people, instead they steal from everyone to provide for those who are unwilling to provide for themselves.When Did America Change From a Land of Self Reliance, Capitalism and Individual Freedom to the Land of the?The liberal school systems which provides inadequate amounts of knowledge is one concept we can pin the blame. Also, the liberal media, which glorifies all aspects of liberalism and attempts to shove it down the American publics' throats. Now I'm going do a 180 here and say the last thing to blame are conservatives who do nothing but complain about the liberals disregard of individual freedom. If you don't like how your government is behaving, then do something about it.When Did America Change From a Land of Self Reliance, Capitalism and Individual Freedom to the Land of the?I regret it now. 2010 elections are huge in the fight to get our country back from this socialist takeover of our lives. Im not saying to vote for reps, but better yet to vote for every true conservative on the ballot even if the candidate is dem. We are an inch away from actually becoming a socialist state. Not to overreact, but the truth is,(look back in history) this is exactly how hitler took over germany, not by force but from within. Dont be afraid to express this sentiment because it is true. More people that realizes this the better chace we have to stopping this administrationWhen Did America Change From a Land of Self Reliance, Capitalism and Individual Freedom to the Land of the?Not to overreact, but the truth is,(look back in history) this is exactly how hitler took over germany, not by force but from within. Dont be afraid to express this sentiment because it is true
You cons like to use hitler name quite often I think many of you would have served him well, but for history sake this is not and has nothing to do with how hitler took power in germany, You may think your reading a history book but it some con fiction propaganda.
I still have my freedoms what freedoms have you cons lost under President Obama? HUM? No laws were changed buy him, so what freedoms have you lost? HUM?So you have to buy health insurance, I thought most of you hard working cons have insurance, so nothing changes you keep you insurance. So what freedoms have you lost? HUM?When Did America Change From a Land of Self Reliance, Capitalism and Individual Freedom to the Land of the?I think that the hard work of our fore fathers have brought us to our current state of politics. It's hard to explain it in detail but I remember this quote from the movie %26quot;The Aviator%26quot; that sums it up perfectly. When Hughes goes to dinner at his girlfriend Hepburns house her mom says %26quot;We're all socialists here.%26quot; He replies %26quot;That's because you've always had money.%26quot; So, I think its easier to be a nanny state when most the people in it have never really had to work for what they have. Did our generation grow up without a car, electricity, running water, telephones, etc? No. The generations of yesteryear did not have those luxuries and had to work for everything they had so they believed in a working dollar. America had golden years after WW2 and the generation that is now in control grew up with the luxuries of life already there so it is easier to think everyone else should have the same when they didn't necessarily have to work for it themselves.When Did America Change From a Land of Self Reliance, Capitalism and Individual Freedom to the Land of the?This is our last stand. Freedom can't be maintained through pacifism. It is claimed and maintained by vigorous assertion. Remember; %26quot;Home of the BRAVE.%26quot; No Brave: No freedom! The question our generation must answer: Do we process the bravery of American patriots of past generations who claimed and maintained the freedom given by their Creator, or have we been conditioned by big government propaganda to passively surrender our freedoms forgetting there pricelessness?When Did America Change From a Land of Self Reliance, Capitalism and Individual Freedom to the Land of the?I already regret it and try at every turn not to hand over my life to the government or anyone else for that matter. Personal Responsibility.
To me the slippery slope towards the 'handout' became a landslide during the New Deal in the 1930's.When Did America Change From a Land of Self Reliance, Capitalism and Individual Freedom to the Land of the?wow i'm impressed with you. what a thinker you are .i'm with you lets go back to the good old days when we could hang people just because they didn't do what we want ,or the wrong skin color or what have you .think about it , we had to make these rules to stop people like you .thanks for askingWhen Did America Change From a Land of Self Reliance, Capitalism and Individual Freedom to the Land of the?Its the democrat's organized corrupting of our country!!When Did America Change From a Land of Self Reliance, Capitalism and Individual Freedom to the Land of the?When the Free market failed us during the great depression and hoover decided to use charity rather than programs to help out the middle classWhen Did America Change From a Land of Self Reliance, Capitalism and Individual Freedom to the Land of the?definitely turning to the land of the entitled...where people demand something while contributing
nothing!!!When Did America Change From a Land of Self Reliance, Capitalism and Individual Freedom to the Land of the?We have more freedom for honest people now than ever be for, thanks to democrats.When Did America Change From a Land of Self Reliance, Capitalism and Individual Freedom to the Land of the?Times change, it's as simple as that. We don't live in the 20th century anymore.When Did America Change From a Land of Self Reliance, Capitalism and Individual Freedom to the Land of the?It started in the 1930's with FDR (shortly after women were given the right to vote).When Did America Change From a Land of Self Reliance, Capitalism and Individual Freedom to the Land of the?what you tired of the change already?When Did America Change From a Land of Self Reliance, Capitalism and Individual Freedom to the Land of the?First off a liberal school has nothing to do with being liberal in a political sense, liberal means progressive or having the ability to adapt which is what a liberal education gives people. Many great philosophers of the 1700s who directly influenced our founding fathers believed that a free liberal education was the key to a nation becoming a free state.
With that said our government has been attempting to control business by %26quot;throwing money%26quot; around since the 1870s. A prime example is railroads. The government tends to step in when ever business key to the economy are about to fail. Railroads in the 1800's; heavy industry, banks, and real-estate in the 1930s(sound fimailar); during the 1950s the only reason our economy boomed was because of the goverments insitence to rebuild Europe; today the banks, housing market, and a lack of industry outside defense and poorly built cars expensive cars has caused another fall of our market. Once again the government under George Bush stepped in, today this intervention continues.
As we have never been a true capitalist state(state and federal money has always been used to regulate business in this country) if we suddenly decided to become a true free market our economy will completely collapse because the government made floor that prevents total failure of our economy will be gone. If you think we are in bad shape now because of our socialized economy with a republican government in control wait and see what happens when we change. Look at Russia they institute a free market into a communist state and they have been living with corruption and poverty ever since. We shouldn't change what isn't broken.
Yes clearly there are problems and we must change them, things that hurt our civil liberties IE pat act, wars with no end that consume billions of taxes dollars while giving the oil industry cheaper oil but not lowering the price, and corruption with in the government, just to name a few. These are things that need to be changed by electing third party not some civil war that will surely be crushed by the most powerful military force the world has ever known.
Please excuse any spelling a grammar eras as I'm very hung over and it is very early.
