President Obama seems to think that big government is the
way to make the economy grow. He in
particular seems to think that government control of everything is the proper
way to fix our nation’s problems.
Unfortunately, Obama has failed to learn from history. Maybe this fundamental failure to understand
history is one of the reasons he was not a highly respected professor. Nonetheless, he has failed to understand that
the government has accomplished the most when it interferes the least.
From the days of the founders, the government has relied on
the people. Anytime in history, when
people have started to rely on their government, the government failed. Ultimately, when the government failed, the
nation failed, and when the nation failed, a new nation was formed. Someone only has to look to the Soviet Union
to see a prime example of the people depending on the government. In the Soviet Union people depended on the government
for food, electricity, news, vehicles, direction, etc. They depended on it for everything. In the end, the Soviet Union failed.
Consider this in the Revolutionary War; the government did
not defend the people. The people
defended the government. Farmers, businesspersons,
ship builders, blacksmith, physicians, preachers, and others all came together
to defend the government. The government
essentially had nothing. The government
had no money, no tax system, no army, no ships, no food, no national currency,
and even no building of its own. The
Declaration of Independence was drawn up in a Masonic Lodge. The founders contributed their own money to
fund the government. The truth is the
only thing the government had was some papers saying it was a government. People came forward with their skills,
abilities, money, and assets and they supported the government.
Fast forward through all the trials this country has faced
and it has always been the people who have supported the government, not the
government supporting people. At least
it has been this way until recently.
When Obama took office, he immediately began doing exactly what he said
he would do. He began to force people to
redistribute wealth. He instituted a
failed Soviet policy to take money from the rich and give it to the poor. He gave away money, he gave away healthcare,
he gave away cell phones, and he even gave away the Chrysler Corporation (check
your records and you will see he sold it at a loss to an Italian company,
Fiat). To be blunt, he gave, gave, gave,
gave, and gave. The only problem is, he
gave what was not his to give. He gave
your money away. Obama failed to realize
that until the early 1900s, this country did not even have an income tax! The government was sponsored by the people,
not through force, but through pride.
When the United States entered World War 2, the people won the war, not
the government. People worked in
factories, farms, and on the front lines to ensure the United States did not
become the socialist form of government that Hitler wanted. In the end, the United States won the war, not
the government. Today, Obama has
forgotten these basic principles. Obama
has forgotten that while people need help from time-to-time that ultimately people
need to know how to fish, not simply be given a fish. Obama wants Americans, every American, to be
dependent on the government for everything.
Obama wants a socialist form of government that has failed repeatedly. It failed in Nazi Germany, it failed in the
Soviet Union, it is failing in Cuba, it is failing in North Korea, and it will ultimately
fail in China.
On November 6, if American’s go to the poles and elect Obama
again, they will be electing him to a position where he can truly implement his
plans to bring America into a socialist form of government. Fortunately, Americans have a choice.
Mitt Romney is an American who understands American
principles. Like Ronald Reagan, Romney understands
that the government should not support people, but that people should support
the government. The government is to
work for the people, not run people’s lives.
Romney has seen what it takes to build companies. He has seen what it takes to recover from
hardships and financial crisis. Romney
has been a leader on the front lines when things did not look good. Most importantly, Romney knows socialism
fails. Romney knows that the only way
America is going to recover is to recover with the work of the people. He knows the government is not the
answer. Romney will help the people by
helping the government get out of the people’s way.
In November, the choice is bigger than Republican or
Democrat. The choice, as many Democrats
supporting Romney know, is for the America we built, or for the socialist
America that Obama wants to finalize. This
November it is not about an “R” or a “D” behind the name. This November the “R” in Romney means “Rebuild”
and the “O” in Obama simply means it is “Over”….
