Citizens of the World

What is it with these people? Some don't like U.S. flag at school. Well, most people do like the U.S. flag. Why does the opinion of the few who don't like it have to be pushed on the majority who do like it? Read this quote:

"I feel our country is on a strong push towards imperialism, and we're not a democratic nation anymore.

If the country were democratic, majority rules, so they can take a hike. But, this country is not a democracy and never was a democracy. It's a republic. Our founding Fathers did not think very highly of democracy. Yet it is repeated over and over and over that we're a democracy. No. It's like the running joke about not removing the mattress tags under penalty of law. That's not true. The consumer is supposed to remove the tag so it can't be sold as a new mattress after it's been sold. It says so right on the tag. That's a small thing but it makes the person saying it appear stupid. I think it's important to get the facts straight. The government needs to get out of the education business!

So, we are a republic. Liberals don't like that because there are too many checks and balances, and yes, that includes the electoral college. Well, that's too bad, they can still take a hike. If you don't like the principals on which this country was founded then go somewhere else. Go to Canada. Go to Australia, New Zealand, Europe, China, Japan. Oh, Japan doesn't want you, don't go there. Go to North Korea. Go build your social utopia somewhere else. Go show Castro how it's done.

Why do people insist on joining a group who doesn't think as they do, then force the group to change to suit their own personal views? It happens in churches all the time. Some small group joins the church, works their way into power and takes over, forcing the majority to leave. Guess who keeps all the money. Go build you own church. Go build your own club. Go build your social utopia somewhere else, we don't want you.

Bottom line, if you are ashamed of America or the American flag, go somewhere else where you won't be ashamed. If you say you can't find anyplace as prosperous as this country well then, you're right, but what made America great was first, God, then, our founding principles. The further we slide into socialism, the more our prosperity will decline.
