I wrote this about two months ago, but thought I would re-post it. If you read the news these days it is apparent the Left is in a full out press to enact the most collectivists laws in our history. Yes, it is a war.
What war am I talking about? "The War Within The States". It is the war between two different versions of the United States Of America.
On one side you have the group currently in charge. They are the collectivists, the believers in an all-powerful government. They believe all wealth and decisions are best placed in the hands of a select few who know better than you how to live your lives. They are also the voters who vote for these people. These voters like the idea of a nanny state. They want to give up their freedom for security. So, you have the ruling "elite" and their willing serfs that make up one side of the war.
On the other side you have those that believe in the Jefferson statement that "That government is best which governs the least, because its people discipline themselves.", or in Washington's statement of "Government is not reason, it is not eloquence, it is force; like fire, a troublesome servant and a fearful master. Never for a moment should it be left to irresponsible action".
In a nutshell, those are the two sides. YOU CANNOT SIT ON THE FENCE IN THIS WAR. If you try, you will fall into the collectivist side, whether you like it or not.
This is not a racial, gender or socio-economic struggle. Your color doesn't matter, your sex doesn't matter, and your current economic level doesn't matter. Your beliefs and attitude matter. Do you love freedom, liberty and personal responsibility? Then you are on my side.
We can win this war. Not by bullets or riots, but by ballots and emails. Don't be quiet or think you don't matter. Pester the hell out of your representatives - at all levels, run for office or help a like-minded freedom-lover to run. Don't be quiet at that get-together where liberals think everyone there thinks as they do. Speak up, you might be surprised.
Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could do only a little.
Edmund Burke
Bottom line - this is a civil war for the control of our country. Fight like you believe it!
