Freedom's Creed with Rex Reed Rex Reed

Borrowing, when there is no reasonable chance to pay back the funds, is not even close to what most of us would consider sound economic advice.  Unfortunately, this is how the government has been operating for quite some time now.  And Social Security, among other taxpayer funded programs...is in real trouble.

It takes some really despicable people to take advantage of vulnerable people in our society.  These scammers seem to have no conscience, they attempt to steal whatever they want.  And in many cases, unfortunately, they are successful.  I have little tolerance for such people!

When we submit to the will of an out-of-control government, that takes advantage of our liberty and freedom, indeed actively attempts to minimize our liberty and freedom; then we have succumbed to the control of tyranny.  Our Constitution, and we the people, deserve so much more.

If we're not careful, not paying attention, or simply don't care, we'll find ourselves in a country that resembles totalitarianism, not freedom and liberty.  And then it will be too late to do anything about it.  We must preserve the Constitution if we expect our children and grandchildren to have any hope of benefiting from the sacrifices of those who gave their lives to preserve it.

Stopping to think about what's really important is something we should all do on a regular basis.  We have to be willing to stand up for what we believe, and continue to respect the rights of all people to believe what they will.

We live in a very open country, to be sure.  And for that reason, the "powers that be" need to ensure that they have the safety of the American people as a top priority.  Unless we want to end up like Israel, and experience a terror attack that dwarfs 9/11, our borders must be protected.
