Government, a fancy way to spell "Joke"

One of my fellow classmates wrote a blog post titled “Dissent and Coercion”. The way the author wrote and described his view on U.S. Government was very intriguing. I think he defined our government perfectly, stating “Government – a corrupt, double dealing, thief, stealing from the poor and the middle class to make their rich buddies richer, passing crippling and invasive legislation that contradicts and disposes of the constitution, all the while lying to the American Public to promote its own agenda of greed and world domination.”

            If we, as a nation, would come together and rise up to once again pursue our morals and rights, things would drastically change. Each day it seems that we, American people are loosing more and more of our rights and freedoms. Laws are passed that go against our morals, greater than that, our constitutional rights. So, why don’t we do anything about it? I think it is well said in “Dissent and Coercion”, that “We Americans have all but left our senses at the door and fallen head first trusting in the government whole heartedly. Which is not surprising in the least, the government teaches us what to believe without us even realizing it. Public school, what a joke, we allow our kids to be taught whatever the government wants and don’t even second guess what their learning.”

            I don’t have much faith that our founding fathers would even be able to recognize the United States today. We have so drastically changed our beliefs and morals over the years. In closing, one sentence really stuck out at me, I believe this is the only way we will get America back on track, “We must follow the example of true patriots of this country…who believe in the constitution and will spend their lives fighting the tyranny of our corrupt government.”
