What would you think if you discovered your rights were being taken away from you in plain sight? That's what is happening in America today. Voting rights are being questioned by the political system that was supposed to be in place by and for the people. But who are those people? The middle class? The poor? What I'm about to say will shock and awe you, but it's so true. I keep hearing the repetition of the phrase, 'The Will of The People' or 'The American People'. Yet when the people want to be heard, only a "select" few are heard and they are the very, very rich. Are those the 'American People' the political system want to hear? No matter what many say, our country IS NOT BROKE! Our children will not suffer anymore tomorrow than they are today. The Social Security System can withstand another seventy years and with the continued pay of taxes each year, will never go broke but the morality of some on the right say that it will.
At this moment, women's rights are being down-graded and closely on the verge of being taken away. Senior citizens are living longer and America is becoming over-crowded with immigration on the rise. The medical system is challenged and some say the costs are sky-rocketing, but are they? Is this scenario telling us that 'certain' elements of the Government is deliberately creating a plausible likelihood of reducing the population of America without holding the gun to your head by other means necessary?
These officials that were elected are toying with the lives of millions of people who depended on a sane clarity of what they were promoting when they asked for our votes. We've watched the disintegration of our monetary system of eight years ago spiral downhill continuously each day. We are witnessing rising gas costs everyday but yet we do nothing to change our usage by other ways available at our disposal. America is becoming a third-world country at the hands of those in the House of Representatives while the majority of us stand idly by and watch it fade away from the majestic and magnificent country it once was to an imprisonment camp it will become in the next twenty years. I want to know where and when will the lying stop!
