Just a few thoughts I ponder about sometimes, after all, this blog is the just musing blog.
The general public and well being. This one makes me wonder, which one should we focus on most. I'm not at all for Socialism or Marxism, Democracy... personally I think a Republic based on The Constitution. There is a massive difference and we lost the Republic a long time ago. I see no bad thing however with Social Security, other than the government has robbed it until they bled it dry. For me it makes sense that since they (corporation of the USA) stole the money or borrowed it without asking, they should have it deducted from their earnings. The poorest official is a Millionaire and will earn mega dollars while in office. They did this with the help and aide of Lobbyists, which also should bear some of the burden. The amount plus interest we would have earned. So which is the worse. That nobody has come up with that solution or that we remain silent.
That brings me to number 2. We hear all this about people defrauding the people with Welfare and Food Stamps, and I'm sure there are many cases. Mostly it's done by so called Christians. They bring out the point that charity or people helping out a neighbor should be from the willing community. I'm in total agreement with that. Most of these same ones walk past someone in need and snub them or turn their head. Some of the loudest ones abuse the system too or have a relative that does, of course that don't count. They head home to watch TV or get on the computer to piss and moan and stand up for whats right. Was the Good Samaritan part removed? Which should disturb us the most. The fact we have to have the government to force us to help out, or the fact that we do not help our neighbors willingly.
That brings me to number 3. It has been proposed that we have a level tax on income. The top percentage pay little to no taxes and the lower end of the tier pays little to none, but we don't hear about the top part no do we. Most people never consider that a tax on what we earn was never ratified. That means, pass any kind of Income Tax and it will be law, right now it isn't. So which is worse. The fact that they want an actual law making it legal to tax a person's income, or the fact we aren't smart enough to know it isn't legal now.
Number 4 is prayer in schools. In this country we have, or are suppose to have, freedom of religion. How hard is it to not bow one's head if they don't want to pray? If the teacher over that class or principle wants to lead the overwhelming majority in a prayer, then it should be done. If one doesn't want to participate, then don't. Which is worse. That we do not stand up or that we let a few dominate the many.
