Why America is in debt

Well instead of using what we already had,and it was God-given,and blessed,we squandered

it,and use it to no avail. This country was the most blessed in everything,and for the last

couple of years we've seen it plummet to almost no return.How could a country so rich,big,and

beautiful be in such a crisis? How could there be so much owed by a country said to be so

powerful,and strong? What has happened to this country that has it on it's knees,looking to

other places for their own unnecessary spending?Here's a country in debt,up to its' nostrils,and

yet cannot get a reasonable plan to undo what has been done,except to ride the backs of the

unfortunate.This is genuinely sad to say the least,and it's not going to get better.So if there

is anyone out there thinking it will then you'd better strap up your boots,and be willing to

grab at what will never be,and hope that you land on something sure and solid.To say that

there is rough road ahead,would be an under,under statement.There always be presidents and

many who will come into the governing role for this country,but will there ever be a wise

one?Will there ever be that someone who will listen to God's leading with wisdom,and peace

enough to lead with a fierce need to allocate that which is good and decent to a people in

need? How strong will the backbone be for the years to come? When will the dollar ever again

amount,or hold up to its' name?Where are we really,as far as knowing what can,and cannot be

bought,loan,or spent?We are in debt because we are greedy for that which we do not need.Here

we have had the slogan,"the land of plenty".I want to know what is that plenty?Is it a plenty

of debt?If this is the case then we should have that as a slogan instead of the land of plen-

ty.In 1898,the wilderness predicted in the Bible became this country where we now live.And it

was a new young country.Fair and rich for the taking,and making of those who came in.Already

occupied ,but none the less, readied by God for a people in need of solace from tyranny,and despair.

Yet there has not been anything fair since then.This country trust in itself apparently,and

lately it has shown.Why is this country in debt,well,like everything else,to take away from

what was originally stated,"In God we Trust",and prayer,and faith in the only supreme being,

was,and is why this country is in debt.
