There are things we can do to change this country and get it back on track. First is STOP spending money on wasteful things, my check book only has so much in it as well the governments does to, we the people are not your never ending flow of cash when your check book runs dry. Balance it and save it! Second, if our senators and rep. in Washington keep ignoring our e-mails, phone calls, and letters we must and will vote them OUT! Third educate our kids, teach them what our country was founded on and what it costs to be free, and get the government out of our church's, home's, and school's. Teach the truth not an agenda! Let us get back to our morals and back on track. God Bless!
I am 26 and have been following politics for years. My friends always asked me "why do you care so much about this stuff? Not like you can do anything anyway." Well my answer to that was, I care about it because it's not only my future it's my kids future and I'll be damned if I'm not going to worry about my kids future. People around my age just don't get it, as long as they have their x-box or computer they don't care! If you ask high school kids to tell you the history of this country they couldn't tell you even what year we declared our independence.
never said that, i am saying there is other ways to resruture a company through other means then to let the government taking more then 50% of the shares (in other words taking control of a private company). relying on the government for everything is not what our founding fathers wanted, they intended for it to remain a free maket and if a company runs into trouble then there is steps they can take to save that company. this is no more about GM than it is AIG or CITI GROUP, the govenment should have never dipped their hands in the private sector. this would have let other small busnesses grow and even out the market, now all we have is a unstable and unequal market that is ready to fail but again and in greater numbers.
I want to put this out here because I work for a dealer that is a GM brand and I'm really very bothered by GM giving up 50+% of its shares to the government. I never thought I would see the day that a privet company like GM would hand over everything to the government and no longer have control of their company. What are they thinking? They can't survive this way, we all see how good the government can run things. I can no longer see myself buying a GM, I can not support something I don't beleive in, this is a free market and the government is to have very very little to no say in a free market. I just want to see what others think of this plain that GM has put forth and if you were a loyal GM customer will you still be loyal to the GM brand?
if this government believed in up holding the constitution they would do so with the whole constitution not just parts they see fit to up hold. and the rights are being taken away, the states have lost alot of power to the federal level. there also is no where that gives the right to the federal government to tell the private sector who fails and who makes it. i want you to read some things our founding fathers talked about, how the federal government was to have very little power and the state were to be self governing, but the federal government has seen to it that the states must follow all federal laws and follow federal guide lines. this restice the state powers to no longer self govern and does not give power to the people but rather the federal government. i can go one for a long time about everything but you have to want to see the truth i cant push you into the light you must walk yourself and i pray that you and many others will see the light someday and know what this federal government is up to.
let me ask you a question. in a time of war would you not try and save fellow americans if all you had to do was make someone uncomfertable to get info that could in return save hundreds if not thousands of lives? we have not killed or phiscly harmed them and if we have harmed them it is nothing compaired to what they have done to others around the world. how do you suggest to treat any enemy that has no regaurd for human life and would kill you for no reason or just because you are christan or black or white? if you say we are not at war with them, then sir you are wrong because they are at war with us if we like it or not.
I just want to through this out here, but obama is signing the give act today (hr 1388) or "National service bill". I think this is something he has been working on for years and he is not going to use it for the purpose to which people think he is. He is funding this americorps program with 5.7 billion dollars and wanting to triple the size of its current members to 250,000 and train disadvantaged youth on national emergancy, education, and many other things. They were very careful with their wording on the places where they will be "trained" in calling them a campus and not camp. He also wants to refer to the differents groups as units with unit leaders.....I would like to hear everyones thoughts on this and where we all stand.....
I was recently talking to a guy at work and he said to me that "even though we may not like the man that is president, we still have to respect the office he is in." I told him WRONG! I respect the constitution and natural law, and anyone that follows and respects that order. There is no hire order then that and I respect no official that does not follow it.
We must stick to the constitution and natural law that was given to us and hold on to it with our lives or we will have nothing!
i see a great devide among us but i think people are starting to see though his lies and see his agenda. i prey to god that more will see the light and wake up from this spell he has over some.....
