Yep you read the title right . We were once a nation who believed in a great work ethic . Not anymore . We take people who are great workers and put them in the unemployment lines . Meanwhile others go to their jobs , sit there and do nothing and get a paycheck . Fire the ones who ARE lazy and hire those who know what its like to be unemployed . We are a nation of people who have forgotten how to give basic good service . We are a nation who don’t remember how to EARN a dollar .
We are a nation of excuses . We are a nation who let our leaders say . " Double dip recession ". We are a nation who faces another migration of people seeking work n, just as in the dust bowl days . Why ?
Because we have forgotten our roots . We have accepted the ACLU as an authority on what we should do . We are a nation of unions and corrupt politicians who should ALL be used car salesmen .We are a nation who’s word is no longer its bond and a handshake means nothing . We are a nation who breaks promises and is not trusted by other nations who are our friends . We are a nation who sends our young men off to war for the sake of oil . We are a nation who is forgetting GOD because our leaders and others tell us so . We are a nation who our second world war vets shake their heads at and just groan . We are a nation who has FORGOTTEN .We are a nation of traitors who have shipped our jobs overseas . We have let the large corporations do this. Its not too late to force them back . All we have to do is get some backbone and refuse to buy from them and also refuse to serve them in any way . Remember the sign , " We have the right to refuse service to anyone ". If we don’t do something about it then we will end up on the trash hills of time , " FORGOTTEN ".
Now the point is not weather you agree with me or not . The point is that you have read this and it has either stirred you up a bit , to do something or to sit on your complacent butts and be forgotten .
I am in no way against America . I am against what it stands for NOW as compared to what it stood for when we were a nation of the proud and a nation of the brave . Where we stood up and said …..
" NOT ON MY WATCH ".
Rant Done !

I hear you and I tell you: You are not alone! Neither you, neither your country! The western world is living the same as the US! And in some cases it is even more worring than what you might think! Let me just tell you about Sweden, the country where I’m living right now:
The Queen (that was carefully chosen to marry with the King) is the grand daughter of the highest chief of the N-A-Z-I party in Bavaria (southern Germany), one of the greatest murderers during WWII, everybody knows, nobody likes to talk about it! The founder of IKEA was a ferverous member of the N-A-Z-I party when younger, nobody cares! The swedish people elects a N-A-Z-I party into the parliament, nobody likes to talk about it because nobody sees that that is a problem! The immigration service is full of pricks that send children that were born here (though with immigration background)into arab countries where they have no familly left because their parents split up or die or get unemployed, nobody does anything! They teach in school that alcohol is as dangerous as cocaine or heroin and they have a system that only one shop can sell alcohol and only people over 21 can buy it. But if you are 16 you can go to a disco or bar or restaurant and get as much as you want! The government does nothing because there must be an institution controling alcohol in the country, they say… Speaking about school, they also teach that nobody should be different, everybody must think the same way and be the same. People shouldn’t either express their feelings or have big reactions in the front of other people. They even have a specific class for it! Everybody thinks it’s normal… The police is extremely racist. If you are on the road, they will allways stop you because the car is registered with a non swedish name (I know for experience as well), but if you drive a car that is registered in a swedish name, they will never stop you. They allways try to get something to pass you ticket if you are an immigrant! For an average swedish, immigrants are garbage, unless you are scandinavian, dutch or german. Americans are cool, as long as they are not black. By the way, speaking of USA, in their tv and radio, everything is american or english, but if you go on the street and try to speak english, many of them will pretend to not speaking it, though all of them can speak pretty good english and even collect american classic cars and bikes.
The list just goes on and on, you name it… I could be here the whole night!…
CanyonWind:
To not speak out is the same as condoning the practices of corporations and government . IKEA is here and many do not buy from them because of what you have stated . So my friend , SPEAK OUT and die free and proud rather than be silent and die a slave without honor.

When the stepping stones of power, regardless to the bias of our own choice… or the perspective we have, leads one in nothing but one direction: a removal of corporations from our own shores to another (and one would have to consider the reasons for this is greed), jobs on the wane (when corporations give American jobs to migrants… people not desiring to assimilate-where advantage to economic gain is given by those who still wave an American flag over their business), Industrial entities of our past have been displaced or shut down (American steel plants, or any others… places that kept us working here, are subjected to profit and loss of our own concerns as being imperative to any other). The destabilization of our own lawmakers, the actions that engorge the corporations with cash (bailout: what they robbed from us {under Bush} and our pockets picked clean) paid as if they are so blind to who is effected by these stark “entitlements,” and leave us to blame the party left in power or given power. Interesting that no one wants to blame themselves… and would strive to point a finger at the other! We have done this to ourselves, and now we need to do the typical American thing… blame someone else.
While no one wanted to watch… the actions of “America’s Mayor (that was a joke),” his law firm made deals with Spain and sold some of our roads, now toll roads, right from under our collective noses. This speaks more to ‘the elitist mentality than not,’ for his views and blame for anything seem more ‘for popularity than truth,’ look here to see some of the rhetoric believed (about 9-11). Take a real good look at this picture, from back in 2002… after 9-11, from ‘Life Magazine.’ There is an ever widening portal to what is more libertine than either liberal or conservative. Look at how many Presidents and parties have ruled over us in the last 20 years alone… and these same building blocks have been put in place by them both. We still have no fence to our South, deindustrialization continues and the scarcity of work is ever more plain than it was before the big American rip-off, the bailout under Bush. The same Administrators are still in power (from Republican to Democrat) are in control of “our Treasury.”
Problems have existed for many years in America… but we did not have free speech zones until after Bush… and your thoughts?
CanyonWind:
My thoughts are ….. We have left God out of everything . But we should include Him in everything . Too many people stress that they are Christians , when in truth they are worshipers of Mammon .

For the kind of action you are talking about takes organization. To organize such a group you need leadership and a growing population of supporters. Then you run the risk of being identified as a terrorist group subject to growing measures of opposition against you, all in the name of National Security. Who could you get to become a target. Outside of that talk is cheap and will do nothing to change things. The Hippies were the last group to organize and brought about change. Since then anyone who has tried to bring about major changes were eliminated in one fashion or another.

So what you are saying is that we are a nation of gutless wonders . Could not agree more .

In what matters to the US: Obama is a very nice guy and well intented. Nevertheless he is a disapointment and a failure due to the heritage that he recieved (in another words he has his hands tied). Not only from the last government (especially from the last, but not only from it), but the herritage from a whole system that has been working in a “snow ball effect” tactics over these last decades. My only hope is that this “ocupy wallstreet” thing keeps on growing…
CanyonWind
What matters is that he has you fooled . My wife worked for him at a very high level the first two years . this man is ruthless and puts on a new face every morning . Granted his hands are tied in some ways . But the well being of the American People is not his priority . It is self serving to him , corporations , The Club of Rome and the order of free masons . All US Presidents have belonged to that order.

I agree with your assessment Pop’s, God has been left out of the picture, and you can see the actions of both parties, despite their claims for or against, as they are both leading us into the ‘one world governance’ the Bible speaks of in the last days of man’s rule on Earth. Take one quick look at Bush Sr. and his infamous speech, this the ‘so called party of God.’ As to Obama, he is in fact related to Dick Cheney and George Bush.+":http://www.rawstory.com/news/2007/FOX_Obama_re...

It’s easy to sling spit. It’s stepping up to the plate and doing something about it that gets the job done. Don’t ever place words in my mouth POP’s. I can speak for myself. The words you speak so bravely on my behalf is utter BULL’. Let’s see you do some action to move in the direction you are desiring and stop bullying others to do your dirty work.
CanyonWind:
Sorry to get your dander up Mr . Wizard . But you must admit that people are more interested in their toys than what goes around them . I do step up to the plate and stand on it . I belong to the California Christian Militia and we are about 17,000 strong . We practice behind churches as did the old militias .
Why Mr. Wizard we even own our own range that is open to the public . Police train there for urban warfare and the big thing is they see the writing on the wall . Do you feel Bullied ! No I don’t think an ex sniper ever thinks that . I won’t ask anyone to do something I won’t do . So sorry I stepped on your toes JR . I do get right in peoples faces and call them a liar . Barbara Boxer , and quite a few others who hold public office know not to let me toward the front of the crowd . Students love an old guy who calls it as it is .
So JR . If you think I hang out behind the army and give commands , then you are wrong . The smarts and and guts belong up front . No one ever really leads from behind .

My purpose is not to cause debate but to set some straight… as even I can learn from another such as you. I never intended to debate you but would offer a different point of view to all you have placed. The topic you have chosen to talk on… as you will… is going to bring to it views from many people and in many forms. This is but mine… and know you still have my support. You take care Pop’s.

Just wanted to get the feel of people . We all know that God has won, but its no reason to sit around and let Satan do as he will . I just wonder as I think you do , " Where are our onward Christian soldiers ?" You seem to be the only voice in the wilderness of RB speaking the truth of our Lord.

In answer to what you told me:
Well, don’t think (again!) that USA are a case study! In my home country, all the Prime Ministers and Presidents are masons, and all of them have to please to the cement lobby… But in fact, who has being ruling Portugal in the last years hasn’t been any Portuguese, but Mrs. Angela Merkel. Even worse, she has been doing it like if we were a german colony (how I hate her…)! If you ask to the portuguese people nowadays what would they prefer, today or our dictator, I guarantee you that people will tell you that they miss him and they wish that the 1974 revolution woulded never hapened! There was even one of the key personalities who made the revolution that already admited on the media that if they knew what the governants would do to the country, they woulded never have made the revolution (so you can imagine how unhappy and unsatisfeied people are!)
Well, I totally understand you… Slowly I start to wonder if the comunists were right after all… at least it makes me think…
CanyonWind
They have not bothered me in my little summer house on Faial . But then again we are a little off the beaten track . Besides Angel Merkel and her like are not likely to bother someone with a name like Von Bernhard and whos father was with the high command in Germany in the second world war . I agree that Portugal would be better off with it’s old dictator and not be in the European . Whenever I happen to go to Germany I always get the perfect treatment . But I can see through their games . I am still a member of the OLD party and we do not like masons and they know not to play games with the OLD party . Hitler and the Old party were so right in many ways . Wrong in so many others . Concentration camps are wrong as is killing people just because of race . Maybe he should have rounded up all the masons .Stalin put many a Mason into his Gulags .But even so my friend we are now at the mercy of people who would bring about a one world government .

Well, sorry to have taken this off the track. My point was, that I totally understand you, and USA aren’t the only place in the world were things like that are hapening… By the way, I have nothing against a world government (because though I am portuguese, I am Human, and as a catholic I have nothing against other “races” or nationalities, nor see difference among people, just like Jesus said:“Love the other like you love yourself!”), I just don’t agree with the way it is being built, this is not the best nor the only way!! But remember that before we have a world government, it will be needed to melt down the actual blocks (NAFTA, EU, African Union, Arab League, South American block – led by Brazil, India, and probably the two most important ones, China and Russia) into a single one, and that will take much more than a big depression…
Russell Holder
As I have found, where the gentleman above is right as well, this has a lot to do with it. There are many things to see here and links beyond the norm… to see just how entrenched this pervasiveness is we face… and how long it has been “in the works.”
