So.....

the Great American Tragedy has begun. The leaning of the most prosperous nation in the world towards Socialism has suddenly turned in to an un-controlled skid. The descent towards mediocrity is on.

America has always been about YOU being, or at the very least, having the opportunity to be GREAT. Not second, not mediocre but the best, not middle of the road...the best, first, numero uno for our illegal friends. Democracy and capitalism work hand in hand to allow this to occur.

Socialism is not about the individual and his being anything extraordinary. It is about...Socialism. Anyone who thrives under the pogram is punished. They lose the fruits of their labor and it is shared with the ner do wells of the country. It becomes a juggling act as the socialist government takes from the achievers to give to the lazy. If the government takes to much, the achievers cease to exist. This is not good as the government needs a revenue stream. If the government takes to little, the lazy portion of society becomes disgruntled and votes them out. So a balance is sought, whereby the government searches for that fulcrum point when it takes just enough to keep the hopes of the achievers somewhat intact while being able to give things to the lazy. Government grows and Socialism survives.

Examples of the above? Canada. Great Britain. Australia. Ever notice how their governments are always electing a "new" majority to run the country. They are lurching about, looking for the fulcrum. The problem is that once you give something to the people, you can't take it back. Thus, even under a "conservative" government, the above countries are saddled with the pograms enacted by the true believers of Socialism. The question is not whether the country is Socialist or not, it is. The question is by how much.

This is the path America is now headed down. We are witnessing the sunset of Capitalism. Time is of the essence in deciding whether the descent into Socialism will be swift, like the darkness falling at the end of a winter day, or slow like a summer nite passing into twilight.

If you like the twilight as much as I, the time has come....get involved....mount up and ride to the sound of the guns.
