Ironic isn't it? This country was built by our ancestors escaping that old stagnant socialist Europe for better life, free as God promised, and they even designed the greatest constitution based almost completely on the gospel and Ot teachings, made it the foundation of the nation for all time. But slowly the foundation has been chipped away, and now the nation wants to return to the hellish ways of old Europe to be forever trapped and ruled by endless lines of dictators and fascists.
On another thread a soldier stationed in Israel was saying this is like the book of Kings: following a bad king, then enslaved, etc.
That post and yours reminds me of the Jews wandering in the desert. When they hit tough times they said “Lets go back to our slavery, at least then we had food”. (And free health care, college education, jobs, etc.)
