Four score and seventeen years ago our great nation was in a Civil War to see if this nation or any federalist nation could survive. Our States became too divided.
Republican States wanted freedom for all men to pursue their dreams and aspirations. They truly believed that all men are created equal and wanted a government that allowed each to choose their own path.
The Democrat states had seceded from the union. The new Republican President was going to end slavery in their opinion. They did not want free black men with the ability to choose where to work, how much to work, and how long to work.
These freedoms are under attack again today. Democratic politicians are considering seceding again. In their pre-election war games, their elites did seeded in California, Oregon, and Washington in response to my reelection. Once again Democrat governors are deciding who has an essential job and how long you can work. They want equity of outcomes, but that is not possible when people are truly free.
We still hold these truths to be self evident in America. All men are created equal. An all men are have a natural right by their creator to pursue a life of happiness. That happiness must be allowed to flourish by allowing each man and woman to decide what type of work they want to do. Whether they want to be self employed as a small business owner or work as an employee. They are free to work more than 40 hours a week, or less than 40 hours a week if they desire.
Some people even join as one through marriage. In this arrangement they choose to pursue one life together. They work together towards their common goal with raising their own children. They decide if they both want to work outside the home and how to divide their time to best obtain the life of their dreams. That is beautiful. That is freedom. That is American. And that cannot exist with a government telling your where to work, what jobs are essential, that you value is only your salary.
It is a perfectly good choice to choose to work less and spend more time with your children. Many people do it across America and they are not victims. They have a life filled with love, joy, and happiness only a parent knows. That choice is just as valuable as a choice to own a business or take on salaried employment. It is a choice one can make when truly free and when joined as one with a marital partner who sacrifices to earn money to have that life. This too is an example of American freedom.
We are once again at a time where freedom is on the ballot. Where a Democratic Party may secede if they don’t get to rule over the people. A world where people are truly free will have income inequality. There will be different and disparate outcomes in all walks of life. And that is beautiful. That is freedom. That is America.
My first red pill was when they got total control and wouldn’t just do universal health care. I hated Obamacare as the plans were expensive and didn’t cover much. In college and shortly after I wanted that as we do pay more per capita. By being a mandate for universal private health coverage it provided no savings.. I thought if they wouldn’t do it then, they never will.
Now I’ve looked into it more and like our pre-Obamacare better than universal health care as it is better quality of care.
I’m a pretty secret one. I came out to my siblings when RBGs death was acknowledged. For about a week they were all texting my wife about wanting to change my views. One even texted her to show me the Lincoln Project. LOL. Now my wife will vote for Trump as well. I get they were shocked though as I worked for the DNC in college during the Bush years. We all make mistakes in our youth.
I wish it were 10 feet higher.
