Our generation, this generation has an awesome task laid out before us. It is to protect the American Dream from those in Washington who wish to destroy it, little by little. It is disappearing before our eyes and now President Obama is placing the American Dream on the fast track to death row. Talk about your mean country. This administration plans on killing the dreams of America in order to control the soul of America. In hostage situations, the tormentors always go for what their victims love most, and strip it away in small steps. To the point where their victims no longer care about anything or anyone, not even themselves. Their pride, hope and meaning in their life is gone, and the tormentors have their prize. A beaten victim who willingly obeys their every command, even to the point of death. This is the strategic plan for the current administration. This was the plan in concentration and POW camps in World War II. Yes, Nazism, Fascism and Communism have made their home in the capital of the United States under the guise of liberalism.
What the current administration hopes that the public will forget, is how the middle class actually was formed. Here's a refresher course for all those who have forgotten. The middle class was formed from great companies like Ford, GM, General Electric and Microsoft. It was formed from the notion that if a person had talent, wanted to work hard and make something of themselves, their efforts would be rewarded. Some made fortunes working for the big corporations and moving up the ladder. Others, made a name for themselves and forged new trails for others to follow. Either way, it was capitalism that created the wealth that Americans take for granted now. For this reason, America became the land of opportunity. The place where the good life was attainable for everyone, if they were willing to work. Is capitalism perfect? No, nothing is perfect in this world. Let's take a step back for one moment, does this mean that everyone who tried to reach the brass ring, got it ? No. Sometimes, capitalism can make some people losers, but that does not mean that capitalism is a failure. Rather, it is a filter which keeps in the good ideas and let's go of the bad. It is a much better system of producing winners and losers than having the Government decide. Government has never been the answer to prosperity. It is almost always on the side of greed and spending at the expense of others.
Why is it that capitalism is the one to blame for the economic mess. Washington has to blame someone, why not big business? Seriously, for all the grand standing that the elitist in Washington do, it would make one think that they are as saintly as angels. However, it is not the CEO in their corporate jets who are greedy and want something for nothing. It is the Congressman and Senators who are guilty of that charge. Dare we say, even President Obama is guilty of this, for he stated himself, he wants to spread the wealth around. Translation: Take money from producers and give it to non-producers such as government agencies. To name a few example of how deep the greedy fingers go into the taxpayers pocket, Senator Chris Dodd is a fine example of a Senator who uses his position to receive "perks". Countrywide gave Senator Dodd a sweetheart VIP loan that saved the Senator roughly about $75,000 on home loans on his residences. No doubt they are not the typical three bedroom ranch that most Americans own. This does not smell of a quid-pro-quo deal, does it? After all, Countrywide and Bank of America really wanted a deal in the form of a government bailout, part I. Who better to have on your side then someone you have helped? Senator Dodd time to call in a favor.
Infamous Barney Frank is no angel either, but he portrays a homosexual one in congress. His involvement in the Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae debacle is enough to make a grown man cry. For years, to protect his "turf" and votes, Frank declared that everything was fine with Freddie and Fannie, there was "no financial crisis" Yet, when it all fell apart, Frank's fingers began pointing at President Bush for failing to do anything about the situation. Frank does not want to take the blame for a failure that he created yet, he wants recognition for his tough standings on he issue. Barney Frank is the picture of Greed. Grabbing power, grabbing money and grabbing votes which will benefit no one else but himself.
There are too many instances of greed in congress that to name them all would take up the entire space on the Internet. It can be safely said that greed is not wanting to make a product and profit from it. Greed is doing anything to protect ones own pockets and interest. Even if it is to the point of destroying someone else. This is the state of our current government. They have begun to tear down the American Dream. For them, the dream is socialism, liberalism and total control. Our generations needs to rise up and demand that this does not happen on our watch. Washington elites will not steal the American dream out from under our noses. If they take it, it should not be given up without a fight. Fight we must!
Average Americans citizens are starting to take notice of who in Washington is working on behalf of our interests and who are not. They are contacting their Congressmen and Senators to have their voices of descent heard. They are tuning into programs like Limbaugh, Hannity and Bill Bennett, to name a few, to find the truth of what is going on in the hallowed halls of Congress. These fine men can only do so much. It will need to be a bold act from Average Americans to stop Obama and the Democrats from turning this country inside out. Didn't average men like Adams, Washington, Franklin all stand up against a Monarchy and won? It needs to happen again, but this generation will say that we stood up against liberalism and won.
