Real intelligence lies within the question

September 21, 2021

Is this the country you want?  Seriously? Sometimes the best messages are short and to the point.  So here you go! 

Do you really want:

• A country with no borders?

• One where anyone can vote without being a citizen?  Or have identification?

• The IRS to have full access to your bank accounts 24/7 real time?  And then require the bank to notify them of any transaction over $600?  The Biden administration wants to do this.

• A country GDP at $~20 trillion amassing $30 trillion of debt and climbing? Then another $6 trillion planned?

• Larger, more costly government driving more controls over your lives v. smaller, more efficient and decentralized government?

• To have your children taught that some are abusers and others are victims only because of the color of their skin?  Is this the real purpose of public education given our not-so-stellar global educational rankings?

• Gasoline for your cars approaching $4, $5, $7 per gallon and be dependent on the Middle East, Venezuela, Iraq, or Iran to produce it for you?

• A weaker v. stronger defense in a world filled with nuclear weapons?

• A social worker to respond to a robbery at your home instead of a police officer?

• China to represent global manufacturing for everything you need or require?

• Free healthcare and Social Security to illegal immigrants while U.S. working citizens pay for theirs?  (Yes, that’s what you are if you don’t come here within federal law!)

• Your tax money sent to Pakistan for ‘gender studies’?

• Your tax money sent to China for virology experiments?

More often than not, the real intelligence lies within the question, not the answer.  If your answer to any one of these questions is a no, don’t vote for any officeholder or candidate that answers a single one of these questions with yes.
