American Capitalism is on Life Support

Today Obama announced he was going after corporations that get tax breaks or move jobs offshore. This is another move by Obama to destroy capitalism in America. Bush started this by giving bail outs to businesses which nearly 70% of Americans opposed. Now just over 100 days in office, our government runs banks and car manufactures.  I thought this kind of integration of government and private companies only happened in socialist and communist countries. Soon I fear we will be tearing up our Constitution and writing a new one.

America was made great because for the most part our government left us alone to make a living for ourselves. Today our government is intruding into our lives in many ways claiming it is in our best interest. When did the government become my parents? When did I lose the ability to make decisions for myself? When did I ask the government to make sure that if I make a mistake they would fix it? When did I lose personal responsibility?
We are all slowly being indoctrinated into socialist beliefs and it starts at a young age.

A pregnant women is asked which daycare her child is attending to which she replies “I will become a stay at home mom when my child is born”. Her co-workers stair at her in disbelief.  In kindergarten, school supplies are taken from everyone and redistributed so every student has the same amount. Isn’t that stealing? No it is insuring everyone has the same and as parents we accept that. The road to socialism begins.

In middle school, your child brings a bacon lettuce and tomato sandwich to school for lunch. You get a phone call telling you that you are feeding your bad food and he/she is getting too much fat. They will be sending your child to a class to teach your child what is a proper diet and exercise program. Don’t worry it is a government sponsored program and will not cost you anything. It is also suggested that you attend or allow your child to eat the government sponsored “free lunch”. The lunch is not only nutritious but also kosher and sharia law approved. Wow how thoughtful you say.

In high school health class, teachers trained on the latest health laws, discuss with students the importance of seeking counsel when they don’t want their parents involved in health decisions. In science, students view Inconvenient Truth. The teacher then tell them that although most of the data was incorrect, the message that humans are destroying the planet is all that matters. In an English class, students read the new classics.  Chaucer is replaced by William Morris, Plato with Karl Marx, and John Steinbeck is replaced by Bernard Shaw. In social studies, classes such as US Government, Citizenship, and Economics are dropped and replaced with International Law, The UN and Progressiveism.

Boo! Have I scared you yet? If not you better start paying attention to what is going on right now. We are at a breaking point. We will either break the government or they will break us. We are accelerating towards a government centered country. Our law makers are overlooking the Constitution. They are overlooking capitalism. They are overlooking all of us. We need to remind them that we look over them.
