But while the rest of the world is freeing their economies and bettering the lot of their people in the process the United States is hobbling the legs of our economy and real incomes of the citizens of this once great country are sliding backwards.

Remember that pendulums swing. I am most fortunate to have experienced life in post WWII America when neighbors spoke with each other and doors were left unlocked. I witnessed the impact of communism on Russia and was privileged to see the Berlin wall fall, under an strong Conservative American president.

It's been all downhill since then, here in the US but look at Russia! They have rebounded, even to the point of outright banning advertisements for abortion! There was a time in my youth when prayers were offered up for those persecuted in Russia and now we see the fruit of those sacrifices. We need to do the same here and pray for our own country. Historically, once the libs have tested their failing approaches, the republicans (conservatives) are usually elected to clean up the mess.

Take heart! Pray for the US!

I haven’t lost heart believe me.

I am so angry and befuddled that this country that taught the free market and low taxes path to prosperity to the rest of the world is being led down the socialist road by these idiot Democrats.

How can anyone who was alive and conscious when Ireland went for being an economic basket case to being the Celtic Tiger just by lowering its corporate income tax rate have any illusions that high taxes are the path to economic growth?
