ISSUES DIVERT OUR FOCUS ON FREEDOM

During the past ten years there have been many issues, domestic and foreign, that have burdened the minds and energies of Americans. These include, but are not limited to, war in Iraq, torture of suspected terrorists, income taxes, spying on citizens, health care, environmental protection, global warming, international controls (the UN), financial meltdown, defining marriage, discriminations (race, women, gays, animals, etc.), religion in laws, education, etc. This list can go on and on because there are over 120 million voters in the country, many of which want a say in how the country should or should not be managed. Our Constitution says very clearly that THE COUNTRY SHOULD NOT BE MANAGED BY THE GOVERNMENT. Each individual should be able to manage his or her life as it is most comfortable. All of the issues that come up onto the political radar screen are issues of one or more people wanting to "fix" something that effects others' lives either to the good or bad depending who you are asking. Then, our socialist education to "get involved," comes into play. The great majority of the time that means "get involved" politically and get government to use force to accomplish that which could be and should be accomplished in voluntary ways. This has proven to be an extremely anti-Freedom endeavor and has resulted in the multitude of tyrannical laws that permeate our lives. We have brought it on ourselves to destroy our Freedom. Each little or big issue has chipped away at our Freedom to the point that government is now in control of our bodies. Nothing can be more tyrannical than that. We are now close to the end of Freedom of the individual, which was the entire theme of the founding of this country and the creation of our Constitution of limited government. The politicians have turned the Constitution upside down so that they control us instead of us controlling them. All of this done by the deceit of politicians and our fellow countrymen and women.

Getting caught up in the issues at the expense of Freedom has shown how easily tyrants can work the shallowness, the greed and the frivolousness of the public to usurp the powers that were restricted from them in the Constitution. Even the so called "good" people in Congress have been captured by the corruption of power that seems to swallow up good intentions. Government has succeeded in making the rules to their liking and to their benefit whereas the Constitution did not allow it. This "fog" that the issues keep us in allows the politicians to sneak in and continue to reduce our Freedom. Although the issues need to be addressed in an attempt to stop them, the history has shown that reducing the tyranny of a new law has at best only slowed it temporarily, and let it gain more power. Temporary fixes quite often only strengthen the tyrants to rework their evil and attack Freedom another day and another way.

The ridiculing of certain Congressmen or the Administration is another diversion that takes our minds off of the big picture, which is FREEDOM FOR ALL. This War on Washington has been going on since the Constitution was first ratified. This is just as the founders envisioned. That is why they said it takes constant vigilance to keep Freedom. We have failed at that. But now is an opportune time to retake the government and put it back into the box of the Constitution. THIS CANNOT BE ACCOMPLISHED BY FIGHTING ISSUES. Like a normal war, each battle must be fought as it shows itself, however the winner will never lose sight of the ultimate victory of complete Freedom for all Americans. If that vision is lost, final victory will also be lost. It is evident that Americans are amassing in Tea Parties and in other groups to fight back against the tyranny. Just as in the first revolution there were loyalists to the King of England, this war has loyalists to socialism. That will never change so they must be overpowered by the force of millions of peaceful marches, letters, persuading of independents and every other mechanism that is non-violent. The colonists revolted in non-violent actions and were met with the vicious force of guns by the King. Since government is only force, it must be anticipated that the government will use any force at its disposal to stop the opposition to tyranny, if it gets the chance. It usually begins with character assassination.

Every issue that comes up must be met with opposition to government power, even if the issue has some merit to it, because government will always twist it, turn it and remake it into another government power grab and punish those who disobey. Do not support tyranny, no matter how incidental the issue is. Always Vote no and find a voluntary way to do good. Maintaining the FOCUS ON FREEDOM no matter what the issue is the secret to success in this most important War on Washington.
