Where Are We Going Wrong
2-23-2018
Back in August of 1945, “The United States of America” was in The Catbird Seat! We had just emerged from World War II as the victors on two fronts, Our Industrial Might was Awesome, “Our Armed Forces” were incontestable, “Our National Pride” was overflowing, and we just knew for a fact that we were, and forever would be, on top of the world – “SO WHAT HAPPENED?” And who, pray tell, would have even imagined that any person whom we chose to lead us into “This Brave New World” could ever make a statement like: “It’s alright to be second or third best, or “To Compare Our Founding Fathers to a Bunch of Terrorists?”
And for the information of this individual, had it not been for “These American Patriots”, the person making these ill-advised statements, might still be living within an oppressive society that still spoke with “An English Accent”, or one that even condoned slavery? Or could it be because of our eagerness to elevate the entire planet to our level of accomplishment, or possibly our penchant to be the policeman to the entire world?
“Whatever it is, it ain’t working too well, at least not as well as it should, or could be?”
And maybe our political leadership should re-examine what it was that made us great as a nation to begin with, re-promote “Good Old Yankee Ingenuity and Creativity again, Re-vamp our own Industrial Prowess, Revitalize Our Waning Educational System, “Promote Made in America”, and really mean (and not just say) – “THE UNITED STATES COMES FIRST!!”
