The sign of the times.

     The sign of the times, kind of a strange saying right? There in lies the term sign of the times. Our civilized world is at a tipping point of, will we prevail and go on, or just simply destroy ourselves. There are signs that back up the latter half of the above statement.  Protesting is everyone’s right in the United States. Coming from a generations long traditional family that served in the Military, I can say we served to protect that right to protest peacefully. But that is not what is going on. We the people of the United States elected the first Black President in history. That could not have been achieved if this country was full of Racists. You would figure that race would be the last thing we would be talking about. Race relations have been worse under this President than any other in history. Everyone calls someone a racist for one reason or another. First is agenda. (If you are losing the argument scream Racist) This seems to be the most effective way to drive the conversation to a standstill or a halt. Because no one likes being called a racist. Then you see the scenes playing out all over the east coast now of Immigrant children screaming foul language and gestures at other people. You also see people emboldened to burn cop cars and injure their fellow Humans. This country is falling apart at the seams. All orchestrated at the hands of a man who read the book on destroying the American Dream. He started by pitting citizens against each other. Dividing them by race and religious views. And lies and deceptions as well. So far the American populist has let this grow with no push back. 

     When you look at the center of the problem all you have to do is look at who is and has been teaching the next generations of leaders. These are you higher learning centers, colleges and other so called higher learning places. All of the terminology used these days are disseminated from college Professors who teach a so called new way of thinking. Because you know we are not smart enough to think things through for ourselves. They call this new era of thinking Democratic Socialism. 

  Democratic socialism is distinguished from both the Soviet model of centralized socialism and from social democracy, where "social democracy" refers to support for political democracy, regulation of the capitalist economy, and a welfare state. The distinction with the former is made on the basis of the authoritarian form of government and centralized economic system that emerged in the Soviet Union during the 20th century, while the distinction with the latter is made on the basis that democratic socialism is committed to systemic transformation of the economy while social democracy is not.

     So fundamentally transforming America into a welfare state. These types of Governments have never worked and never will. History is filled with the carnage of such concepts. Rome, China, the old Soviet Union and the new Russia. So just because your College Professor tells you it is a better way of thinking, remember this person telling you this has Tenure and cannot be fired or lose his job. So in essence he or she has nothing to lose by recruiting his or hers next class of working class idiots. Ideology will not change the system the People Will. The Founding Fathers knew this, that is why they constructed the country in the fashion that it is in now. These learned men studied history and picked a path for us to go down and then gave us a set a guide lines to follow. And for the most part we have sustained 240 years of prosperity. Well that is until we changed the rules, born by those very Professors who wanted to change the system. So let’s see, the problems now are Racism, Social Justice, Illegal Immigration, U.S as the worlds Policemen, Healthcare gone to shit, jobs gone for good, towns reduced to nothing and an education system that has destroyed the learning ability of our children and regulated them to mid pack or even in some cases the bottom of the pack when it comes to the rest of the world. Others are, Political correctness run a muck, Religious Freedoms shouted down by Free Thinkers who know better, and blood thirsty Religious views that even Thomas Jefferson warned us about. There is something to say about learning your history before you speak. 

     All in all, we are in trouble. If we do not find that spirit that made us the great nation, we once were we will then become Europe. My fellow Veterans did not sacrifice the time and blood and their lives for Teachers who set on their asses and preach divisiveness to take apart what was once a place where everyone wanted to come because we were the best opportunity for prosperity and happiness.
