I APOLOGIZE
by Tom Lineaweaver
Folks, when I do or say something that I learn is wrong, it's not beyond me to say, "I'm sorry". Well, I have reached one of those times. For awhile now I have been calling people stupid. I was wrong. While there are some genuinely stupid people, of which I have the utmost compassion for, most people are not stupid, they are selfish.
Have you ever noticed people with no physical limitations whatsoever parking in a handicap space? That's selfish. It doesn't matter to them that while they are using that space, some truly handicapped person may come in need of that space. Selfishness is getting what you want regardless of the consequences, and who you have to hurt to get it.
Now let's apply that to politics. Let's take Ted Cruz supporters, for example. They support Ted Cruz disregarding the Constitutional qualification of having to be a natural born citizen to be President, or Vice President, and the documents that define what a natural born citizen is, such as the Law of Nations.
We have a Government full of selfish people. For example, Barack Obama wanted the Affordable Healthcare Act disregarding who would be hurt by it. The Republicans gave us the Patriot Act regardless of the fact it depletes the Constitutional rights of the people.
Selfishness leads to all kinds of problems, such as abortion. That is one of the most selfish acts imaginable.
Our economy is being run by selfish people. CEOs that that have a mutli-million dollar annual income that never consider the people that have to struggle to pay the bills that allows those huge salaries. And those CEOs give large donations to politicians that, when in office, pass laws to protect the selfishness of those CEOs. And we see this in every aspect of life in the United States. Laws are passed to allow for fracking, even though it damages the water supply and people's homes. And they will twist the facts to hide the damage done by fracking.
They pass laws taking away our Second Amendment rights. And we can see the damage that does. Take for example, if the people were armed, I doubt there would be mass shootings. When someone starts firing into a crowd, if the crowd was armed, they could defend themselves. Being disarmed, they are sitting ducks. Just think of the mass shootings we all hear about. It is not the gun that kills all of those people, it is the selfishness of our Government.
People in Government want power and money regardless who they have to hurt to get it, and that is selfishness.
This Government selfishness affects our Foreign Policy. The wars we fight are for two reasons. 1. Oil. 2. Israel. Big oil and AIPAC gives massive donations to politicians, and when in office, those politicians do what they are told. So, we go to war to protect big oil and Israel. None of the recent wars we have fought had anything to do with defending the United States. They were either about oil or Israel.
Question, is this going to end anytime soon? Probably not. You see, this selfish Government bribes the American people. They feed into the selfishness of the American people. People want a new park. The Government gives money for that new park. The politician that comes through with that money gets re-elected.
This selfishness is costing us a lot. It has caused us a massive national debt. And as long as the American people continue to be selfish, that national debt will continue to grow. And as long as the American people remain selfish, they will continue to elect our selfish Government.
So, yes, I apologize for ever saying the American people are "stupid." They are not stupid, they are selfish, which makes them appear stupid.
If you are not selfish....
