The Values America was Founded on Have Been Decimated
When you think about the values our country was founded on, what comes to mind?
Freedom? Equality? Hard work? Maybe ethics and decent morals?
Traditional American values have generally been considered to be the following:
- Individual Freedom
- Equality & “Democracy”
- Diversity
- Hard Work
- Education
- Religious freedom with underlying traditional Christian values
- Patriotism, or “love for one’s country.”
- Equal Opportunity
Now ask yourself, how many of these values still remain evident in the United States in 2022.
If you cannot confidently say that these values remain consistent in our 5 core institutions which are the government, media, education, the family unit, and religion, then we might just have a problem.
We are NOT the United States of America.
We are not united and we are not a nation which upholds the very values we were founded on. In fact, many people might even say that we have turned into quite the opposite of the very nature this nation was established and built upon.
Ironically enough, the main issues most Americans feel our country is facing today are the same issues that caused the colonists to secede from Great Britain and fight for their independence which made us the country we are today.
Some of these issues include high taxation (without genuine representation).
In fact, 28% of Americans are so upset with the state of our nation that they feel it will be necessary at some point to “take arms” against the government.
Most Americans agree the government is ‘corrupt and rigged,’ regardless of political affiliation.
Our government fails us every single day.
Americans give a large percentage of their hard-earned money to the government to use the funds responsibly and as they promised. Instead, our government and its corrupt politicians fail to spend our money appropriately. We have trillions of dollars in debt, the highest inflation in history (President Biden printed 40% of all the dollars ever printed in history), all while sending more money to the Ukraine and other countries while our own citizens suffer the consequences.
First of all, in what business sector is it appropriate to take money from someone and spend it irresponsibly? Most people will ask for a refund if they don’t receive the expected product or service. Our government, on the other hand, continues to mismanage our money and then ask for MORE!
Even worse, our government PRINTS money on top of the matter.
Our government and elected officials MOCK the American people, thinking we will continue to allow them to behave in this fashion.
Americans should never forget that it is WE THE PEOPLE who give our governments the power they have.
If they fail to uphold the constitution, we have the right to overthrow them, according to the Declaration of Independence.
The Declaration of Independence states it right here…
