I understand what you’re saying- and I don’t necessarily disagree, but it goes against every instinct I have.
I tend to see life as cyclical- and through my own experience and observation have come to believe that interference in normal cycles is ultimately destructive as a rule.
I don’t desire to watch my country go through a time of hunger, want and poverty. But I’m beginning to think that might be the legacy we’re leaving to our children and their’s..
How many times have we bemoned the fact that we’re a nation grown soft, spolied, demanding and that sooner or later it will be our downfall? Well- if we figure a way out of our downfall- what will we have really learned as a country and what are we teaching?
Tough questions and I don’t like any of them. I’d much rather be focusing on how we have a better energy plan than the Dems- or what new crazy thing Obama or Biden have said.
the difference is that the republicans will create an RTC and it will have a limited life.
The democrats will create a new oversight agency that will never dissapear.
True! Very true....But there are exceptions, and yes, I agree with you on just how ignorant and lazy the populace as become.
lessons learned would be a good thing, but I don't think we want to dive into the tank without a snorkel.
Hunger is something you never forget, nor wish on someone else. Survival is something we have forgotten how to do, and political unrest of a kind that we have never experienced is just around this corner we are speaking of, so I fear not for myself, but for my kids and their kids.
I know what hunger and fear is like, but they don't.
Bush would have to suspend Posse Comitatus(murdered the spelling) and mobilize the guard as well as recall the Armed forces to protect the country. I have not even begun yet to explore all the ramifications of this if it were to come to pass.
Best that we avoid it if we can.
