To the Editor:
America is the Greatest Nation Ever to exist on the face of the earth. However; America has become untethered and drifted far from the sure moral moorings of our Founding Fathers, so when in the course of human events history calls we all must be prepared to respond with the principles of life and liberty.
The Founding Fathers did not believe in socialism, hence our current president is wrong when he states that the Constitution as it was framed did not go far enough in the redistribution of wealth. This was not their intent, as they believed in certain Principles of Liberty such as, 1)”the proper role of government is to protect equal rights, not provide equal things;” and 2) “life and liberty are secure only so long as the right of property is secure” which property is not as long as the government can take it and give it to someone else who has not worked for it.
(Quotations from the book “The 5,000 Year Leap”)
This administration is systematically deconstructing the U.S. economy and therefore America itself. No country that has ever gone down the dead end road of government run healthcare has ever improved its healthcare system.
Whereas no one can see what crisis may be looming just beyond the horizon even if you put in place the very best government run healthcare system there is no way the government can guarantee that it will have the money to fund the system in a crisis. Where is the plain common sense?
A wise and prudent government seeks to avoid as many burdens as possible. Not knowing what major crisis may be looming and therefore the real money cost; why would our government even want to shoulder such a burden, with so many unknowns? If healthcare is left entirely in the hands of the free market system, in times of major crisis the government can take care of the crisis and leave “my” doctor and I to attend to “my” healthcare.
This illegal corrupt regime is further deconstructing America by placing known tax cheats in his cabinet and by appointing known Marxists to the position of czars, which will undermine the government’s system of checks and balances as the intent is for the czars to have more authority than the judicial and legislative bodies.
Therefore if America is to remain the Greatest Nation Ever, Americans must stand up and reject the corruption and demand a return to Constitutional Government.
