The Hypocrisy of People

Consistently, there is the refrain from government involvement, unless a selfish endeavor is demanded. Devotion to the cause overrides good sense, as the whip of the slashing coattails are grabbed. The slash rips through hands until the blood of citizens mar the streets. Those same illogical minds cry, bitterly, asking what happened?

The biggest concept of loss between Democrat, Republican, Green, Libertarian, Constitutionalist, and etc. is the level of involvement initiated by the government. There seems to this level of hypocrisy drained from the same shouts that demand freedom.

Breaking down the basics, let's illustrate the level of involvement as depicted by none other, than that far too often forgotten document, called the Constitution:

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America

 Just based on this preamble of review, let's break down the common misconceptions misconstrued from the politicians and many citizens.

We the People

- This encompasses the citizens. Yet, we have neglected our post as the government continued to grow in staggering numbers. Where planes are used to transport friends, families and even pets. The government's budget continues to swell, their incomes wealthy- accountability loss as checks and balances demoralizes into a fabric of "what was," and will never be again.

Promote the General Welfare

- This terminology should be simplistic. Instead, corporate and individual welfare bailouts cripples this country. $13 billion annually are lost to illegal benefits- this is not illegal in immigration, this is referring to any one person, natural born citizen or not, abusing the system of this loss. Promotion does not describe provide or enable.

Our Posterity

- This is by far one of the most lost concepts of the preamble. Posterity is our future generations. Do you hear the crickets or feel the horror of this reveal? Secure a future of crippling debt, a bankrupt nation and lost cause of common care is the only posterity seen. Brillig has a national debt clock that displays the current deficit. This seems to be the only thing secured for our Posterity.

This is just the preamble, and we as the People have failed miserably. We held a party and allowed the out-of-control kids to take over the adult party. They are drinking our booze, eating our food and tearing our shit apart, as we smile and state "dear sir, may I have another?" It's time for an awareness of standing up and teaching our government, something we have taught our toddlers: NO. How much more, how much more must happen for the People to stop allowing parties and politicians for guiding emotions. Mainstream media has guided the thought process. We have not only been kicked out of our paid home, we've been given a mortgage we will never be allowed to pay off again.

It just takes one person to stand up. We the People.
