The Dire State
The US today has become the antistes of what our nation was supposed to be. We have lost sight of our founding principles where life, liberty, and the ability to not only pursue but actually achieve relative happiness has ceased to exist for millions. Never before in our brief history have, we seen so much unapologetic behavior where lives and livelihoods have been lost due to the disingenuous policies that our politicians and many corporate leaders of industry continue to unleash unto the American public.
The wheels of injustice have already started turning. No longer are we in control of our own destiny. The erosion of our founding principles has unleashed the juggernaut of invasive and destructive policy directives eliminating any chance that we the public will ever regain our moral compass. We inadvertently succumbed to false pretenses fueled by our own disillusion to the realities of our own doing.
We are now living in a world void of the pleasantries of a time long since passed. The scope of the harshness of our world is vast complicated by the destructive nature that governments impose onto the public. With no rhyme and apparently no reason the new Trump administration has set off a chain of events that are bound to have almost irreversible consequences for millions the world over.
Many can remember what Christmas and the holiday season was like many years ago. Now we are thrust into an era where apprehension confronts our failure to recognize what we have actually done to society. Could it be that the tempo of life has moved to fast or that we again have failed to learn from what history is supposed to teach us?
It is at this time of year where remembrance of things past should come into focus and awaken a sense of nostalgia that all good things in life be passed on for generations to come. And yet what have we today is an awareness like that old song by Chad and Jeremy "all good things must end some day, Autumn leaves must fall" is the fate of our world.
Bleak, yes. But there is a way to save ourselves from ourselves in a way not too many realize. With the ever-encroaching dangers of global warming, the obsessiveness of Trump, Putin and others for power, control and wealth continue to push the world toward a destiny far removed from the hopes and dreams of millions. Still, we for the most part ignored what we should have learned the lessons history is supposed to teach us.
The probability of a second Trump administration falling in line with tactics similar to Nazi Germany of the 1930's is a reality we can't dismiss as just incoherent rhetoric. We the public have to realize that we as citizens of the United States have an obligation just like what Thomas Jefferson warned us about over 250 years ago. We have to preserve our heritage and restore our democratic republic to the principles of our founding. The future is in our hands. We cannot wallow in disbelief and ignore what has happened to our nation and the world
