Save America

There is hardly anyone in government or currently running for office who can communicate the principles of limited government, a free market and the protection of individual rights with a straight-forward voice. There are Republican candidates giving lip-service and few who  really embrace the principles. While it’s true many of the candidates use the right words and claim to be for a limited government, they go no further to explicate their positions of actually doing anything to limit the growth of government, or empower the free market and work to protect your individual rights. These masked candidates must be expose if we have any hope of getting out of this current mess. We all have a personal responsibility this election to understand before we endorse. We deserve more from our elected representatives.

We need candidates who  will re-educate regarding a free market. This takes knowledgeable individuals standing up and speaking clearly about the principles that are being overshadowed and victimized by this current administration. The public needs to understand there is a viable alternative to bring us back from the road to serfdom by this current overreaching government. Young liberals need to know that the status quo, more less the upsurge of progressives has mislead them. The gatekeepers and the new progressive politicians are protecting a power structure through government growth.

Our country needs clear platforms and voices which will reach the young liberals and confused conservatives who’ve been taught the constitution is outdated, in order to present a new vision. And, not just a conservative call to protect tradition. America needs a vision of freedom within the constraints of the Constitution that will reach all generational levels. Many have been taught to think the Constitution is restrictive and will block progress.  Yet, all the Constitution does is restrict government and free the private sector to innovate and progress. If a society is free to choose its values then a free market can lead to growth in the private sector and restore a stable economic environment. But, we have to have freedom to pursue our moral paths and create and produce a better life. The current path of living a government issued life is not the right path.

Obama’s actions are revealing an ideology which is counter to economic growth.  Do we need Republicans who show a lack of courage by going along with what they see as a populist anger against big business? While there may be evidence the public is angry at some large corporations, an alliance of big corporation and government will not lead us to end corporate favoritism and hang on to a free market. Republicans need to stand up rather than lie down. The Tea Party will embrace such actions.

The Tea Party movement is a reaction to this government’s dis-empowerment of the private sector and gradual assault on our personal liberties. While many want to preserve liberty and choice, many become invested in government as a means to deal with societal problems and control perceived problems of capitalism.  Many have a selfish investment as a means of protection where livelihoods depend of government protection and subsidies.  It’s your choice.

It’s time to step back and assess the role of government and the potential of the private sector. There is overwhelming information available that government intervention in the economy is paralyzing the market, which leads high unemployment not to disappear too soon. Europe is beginning to realize how damaging Obama’s policies have been and are stepping away from his advice.

The American public needs to realize we have to start limiting government power.  Do your homework this election and don’t be taken in by a slick marketing campaign. Don’t defend the indefensible.
