© 2016 Jim Spence - How did America arrive at this intersection of abyss and
total despair? Don’t look to journalism
to accurately report that Americans are shaking their heads. Questions that should
be asked and answered are left unasked.
The answers to these basic questions are actually pretty
simple. The process that got us here began with otherwise decent people
compromising on basic fundamental principles. We began with what seemed like
harmless little concessions. They were made to Franklin Roosevelt while the Germans were making big compromises to accommodate Hitler for the same reasons. Looking the other way to appease what turned out to be dangerous people started the process. The American cousins of
Joseph Stalin and Chairman Mao began to chip away at what distinguishes America
from every other nation on the planet in the wake of the Great Depression.
For starters, productive people stepped aside so that forces
in the Democratic Party were allowed to gradually dumb down the public schools while
politicizing them at the same time. This simple abdication has led to one
disaster after another.
Millions of American people know instinctively that public
education stinks. It explains why the use of parochial schools and home schooling
has exploded. Still, a sorry public education system has dominated the American
landscape for decades now. And over time this has led to several generations of
Americans that each contains a majority of citizens who have no idea how dangerously
powerful and arrogant government has become, especially relative to a more vibrant
free market. In the schools we have allowed a relentless bashing of free market
capitalism, while any questioning of the cancer of an entrenched government bureaucracy
has gone unchecked.
The effects of not properly educating the American public about the dangers of big government throughout history are
widespread. We have seen a hypocritical entertainment industry develop over
time. It shapes a self-destructive pop culture, while also cloaking itself in freedom of expression protections that are embedded in the U.S. Constitution. Greedy entertainment executives pretend they
look out for the little guy while pumping out one violently exploitative film
after another. A scandalous hip hop music industry does the same thing with its
music lyrics. These two iconic influences on American culture make billions of
dollars off the masses while bashing the profit motives of all others in their films and musical themes.
The "entertainment" industry doesn’t stop there. It promotes phony racial narratives and belts out bogus
predictions about environmental dangers. Their alarmist messages and bogus predictions make Chicken Little seem like a
mildly concerned individual. Their reckless actions have led to the deaths of police
officers and the destruction of energy jobs in America.
Neither Hillary Clinton nor Donald Trump will take
corrective actions necessary to reverse the flood of negative trends. They are both simply mesmerized by power and they know that big government not a vibrant free market is the ultimate power in the country now.
Unfortunately America doesn't need another compulsive liar, it needs cultural and economic chemotherapy. Trump and Clinton propose Band-Aids.
If Hillary Clinton
wins the presidency she will accelerate the nation’s demise by appointing a Supreme Court justice who will, along with the four other Obama and Clinton appointees, completely ignore
the U.S. Constitution.
Our best hope for Trump is that he will appoint a Supreme
Court justice who will delay the inevitable by appointing a judge who will follow the U.S. Constitution instead of perverting it. This alone is reason enough to
give him your vote.
Why would I suggest the demise of America is inevitable?
Because tomorrow when we all wake up we will still have a public education
system that is dumbing down America. We will still have a pop culture with no clue about fundamental
truths......cancerous pop culture will continue to influence millions.
Sadly, the demographic realities are simple. More people who were not dumbed down and poisoned by pop culture and bad education are dying each year as they age, while they are replaced by uninformed new adults who are
total rubes. Young adults are mostly rubes simply because they have no idea why their lives are so comfortable. We have not taught them why the U.S. Constitution matters for decades.
As all of this this happens we become more and more like countries in Europe who
are failing miserably. Why the European disaster is held up as a model I’ll never know.
