RW I do agree there is a lot of labeling going around. Some labeling is accurate and some misleading. I have never been one in my life to lump people into groups, or play group and identity politics.
In truth, there is a political party that has been doing that with Americans for decades and I have watched it year after year and so have you. What has been said and done with the black population in this country is a classic example. Never in history has so much been done for a minority that has been done here. Government figures indicate over six trillion dollars in the past six decades. Yet though many have taken advantage of all the money, programs, education, health care and job preferences etc. the FBI Uniform Crime Report indicates every year that over 70 % of the violent crime in our nation is committed by 5% of our population, black males between the ages of 16-26.
Illegitimate child birth is rising with over 50% of black children born out of wedlock with no father around. Drop out rates in schools among blacks is over 60% in all our urban areas. Food stamps, welfare social security medicare all rising every year.
They are a dependent society, and their so called leaders are millionaires seeking power and money keeping them there as are the Democratic Party who are using them for their own political gain.
The same is done separating Americans in dozens of other ways, Christians, ***s, blacks, whites, Hispanics, Conservative, moderate, etc.
This is the ability in which the democratic party has really shined, and gained power doing it.
In reality all of these groups have more in common than most realize.
In a nutshell what Beck does is provide you facts, facts a bought and agenda based press will not let you see. Sometimes I find his personality a little odd, but I know this, he loves America, all of America regardless of your skin color, religion or ethnic background. And he, like myself will not allow our nation to fail in our generation. He like myself strongly believe that while government and the belief in God have to remain separate they are intertwined and that our Nation was founded on the Judeo Christian principles and that to deny or trivialize that is foolish, stupid, and a lie.
As far as having universal health care, well I do like the idea, I like many of the Utopian ideals I have seen in my life, like universal peace, universal sharing of all the worlds resources, universal hot chics for all the retired Police Detectives, etc. etc.
One problem, they do not work, we do not have the money for it, we are in such financial debt right now that our nation may not survive.
Read that again, we may not survive.
In every nation where it is in place it is a utter, catastrophic failure. It causes health care quality to decline tremendously, causes humongous debt, and leads inevitably to rationing of care to the elderly and the young.
In a few countries like Sweden it is sort of working by huge taxes on the working population, and the people are given the option to go and buy supplementary health care to cover their illnesses because the national plan cannot afford it.
Do you see world leaders flying to Sweden for serious medical care? I don't think so, they come here because it is the best. That will change dramatically and very quickly under Obamacare. As it has in England, France, Canada and every other industrialized nation that has implemented various versions of it.
I got an idea though, and I think Americans working together can make what we have even better.
What we do is follow our Constitution, restrict the Federal Government to 1/3 its current size, we follow free market principles and use the power of the free market to force down costs, we establish health care groups that buy in mass and we take some of the money that the federal government has been stealing from its citizens and use it as buying leverage for those who have a legitimate need for help.
We restrict social security to what it was originally supposed to be, to help the elderly that have not got the ability to take care of themselves and not put a gigantic multi generational dependent society face first into the trough.
You see this country was founded on principles that we can govern ourselves, we do not need a giant centralized government to take care of us. In fact history has showed repeatedly that every single nation with such a powerful government became corrupt, immoral and eventually brutal to its citizens. And it has failed.
The American Experiment was for free men to lead themselves and to act responsibly to their countrymen and their families, respect the beliefs of others and to keep what they earn. To live in a free market society.
Every single problem we have in this nation today can be traced back to the divergence we have allowed our Federal Government to commit.
