National morality and ethics: The short version
American Thinker ^ | 29 Feb, 2024 | Jay Davidson

The errors of leftist politics, socialism and communism, come home to roost. Extreme Democrats and big-government Republicans have had free rein for years. We see the results of excessive government spending (inflation), lax law enforcement (Antifa and BLM riots, the Biden Crime Family), weaponizing Administrative State bureaucracies (DOJ, IRS), and absurd border policy (inviting invasion).

The thing is that citizens have straightforward solutions to all these man-made problems. The Constitution was forged to apply to acts of the federal government, to restrict federal power and control over citizens. We are a constitutional republic, a self-governing republic based on the Rule of Law, not rule by bureaucrat, nor by Administrative State. Citizens have c Constitutional right and obligation to object to the excessive hand of any and every government employee who transgresses the Rule of Law, our Constitution.

Our right to life, liberty, and ownership of our property is bestowed on us not by our government, but by our eternal creator. Therefore, government cannot take these individual rights from us, try as it might.

For instance, when the Federal Reserve and Department of the Treasury, in collusion with Congress and the president, unilaterally put this nation into debt to fund excessive spending by Congress, that debt is yours to pay back. You didn’t give the government permission to place you and your children into servitude.

The powers that be could solve the debt crisis — not by burdening us with more debt, but by reducing spending. Our government should live within its means; instead, the elites in control (both parties) burden us with extreme and unsustainable debt. They don’t have the right to do so.

I wish we could switch positions for a week. I would financially burden them so much that they could never get out of it and laugh about it. They deserve it.

Morality and ethics do not exist in Congress or the Deep State.

Some people want to excuse Republicans for being morally bankrupt

Yes, we have these rights endowed by our Creator,but I’m not real sure how we are going to assume them. I think we do have some in positions of power who are willing to help, but not enough who are willing to vote for them or too many willing to vote for the wrong people.
