When they have taken everything but the dignity with which
you were born then they have not only won- they have only just begun.
For they will soon strip you of your own nakedness in that
defining moment if only to allow you the brief glimpse of what might have been
should you stand for such a thing. In a word this thing is freedom.
But freedom from what or rather whom, should you care to
name a person in this great debacle that has become the American person. Should
you allow them to cajole you into taking part of the great healthcare reform?
Well and good! You should and will pay the taxes up and until the point where
they ask you to pay for your own death. Of this I am sure. Death and taxes have
never been so entwined as to think that you can pay for the one without the
other unless of course, you opt out of paying taxes and this brings us back to
death which you will surely suffer in the form of incarceration; forever.
It is and has been forever beyond the pale to ask to be your
own country. Countries as a whole despise competition and just because you own
a farm and six kids does not constitute secession from a union that, although
illegally, retains the right to farm your land even if you summarily do all the
work without their help. It is called the body politic from which you were
supposedly formed that retains those rights to your land. You paid for it, but
they own it. You may interject here at any point but the way I see things
(which is askew,) it merely points to the reflection upon the greater notion of
things like our Constitution that state in no uncertain terms that American
citizens have the right to certain freedoms that cannot be abrogated by the
government at any given time- unless they say so of course.
What if they were all just words? Words formed from the
mouths of upstarts without an education in real politics that lived quite some
time ago and did not understand the nuances that are perceived today as truth.
What then would become of the state of affairs in these United States I wonder,
should those “ignorant” men be discarded?
In a word- oblivion, for there are none greater than the
masses that simply give in. It does beg the question though, of what or rather
who are we fighting for. Remember those six kids on the farm? That should end
the discussion, and if it does not then there is a litany of other reasons you
might use to start a fire up someone’s donkey should he happen to not have a
horse. That particular animal resides in Congress, the Senate and the House. I
suggest you use a letter to cudgel them with, gently, as (and it matters not
which party reigns,) there are several amongst them that abhor things like a
fight. Even keeled; placated. These are the things that feed the animals. This
is more than corn and wheat. I must admit I like them both, in all their shapes
and forms, but the reality is; there is more to this expletive than the public
can consume. It is not the Brave New World yet.
There is still a Nation under God that has and will suffer
for generations and those to come. But God help the Nation that takes mine.
Might not have a farm and six kids to my name, but I sure as hell respect those
that do. And that is my, America.
