The Nightmare That’s Coming To America
Wednesday, December 18, 2013 13:53
By Lisa Haven
According to PollingReport.com 64% of the population believe that the most eminent threat to our country is the growth of our government. Additionally, 58% believe that Washington DC has far too much power; of which I have to agree.
Institutions
In fact the country’s largest employer is the US government. They are hiring more people today, than any other time is history, which is why we see a massive surge of growth in the government. This ever-growing system gains enormous power over virtually every aspect of our lives: education, health care, transportation, energy, disaster relief, welfare, commerce, work and salary rules, and on and on. Not only that but the media has become government watch dogs, the justice department infringes on citizens rights, the IRS targets conservatives, the NSA illegally breaks the first and fourth amendment by spying on its citizens and rants about it; corruption is so widespread that it has become the norm. The tragic part is many Americans are so apathetic that they don’t even realize what is going on because it doesn’t affect them directly.
This is not the America our Founding Fathers envisioned, rather it’s an America headed for a nightmare…
The massive growth of our government is causing many small business to close their doors forever. As a result government jobs increase and the overall middle class become poorer. Thus making America more controllable because they are owned by the government. Once a majority of the people are employed through them, they can garnish wages at will. After all if most people work for them, there will be no competition, so who’s to say they can’t lower the wages on the masses. No one! That’s the point. History proves that this has happened before and is happening again. Take Greece for example, they are falling apart financially and the massive size of the government has alot to do with it.
Furthermore, big government is the enemy of liberty. Government actions that go beyond its defensive, rights-preserving functions necessarily entail some form of coercion that diminishes the freedom of people. The bigger the government gets, the more it liberty is reduced.
James Madison….
“If Congress can employ money indefinitely to the general welfare, and are the sole and supreme judges of the general welfare, they may take the care of religion into their own hands; they may appoint teachers in every State, county and parish and pay them out of their public treasury; they may take into their own hands the education of children, establishing in like manner schools throughout the Union; they may assume the provision of the poor; they may undertake the regulation of all roads other than post-roads; in short, every thing, from the highest object of state legislation down to the most minute object of police, would be thrown under the power of Congress. … Were the power of Congress to be established in the latitude contended for, it would subvert the very foundations, and transmute the very nature of the limited Government established by the people of America.” –James Madison
This is exactly what we see happening today….
