Three Kinds
of People
By Rick
McCorkle
There are
only three kinds of people in the world: Those who make it happen, those who
watch it happen, and those who say “What happened?” There’s some humor in this
old adage, but it has now become deadly serious. The first kind
of people, those who make it happen, are rolling a juggernaut of socialism over
freedom in America at an alarming rate of speed. Socialism is a word that just
doesn’t sound as bad as it is. Look it up in an old dictionary you may have
lying around, because the new ones will make it sound better than it is. It’s a
system in which the government owns and controls everything, and there is no
private property! Take a minute to think about that. No freedom,
and no rights to anything. It is the exact thing that the Declaration of
Independence and the Constitution were designed to prevent. It’s also an evil
thing that has always made people utterly miserable. Prison is supposed to be a
miserable place that people want to never have to go to, but socialism turns
the whole country into a prison and makes everyone a prisoner but the elite,
privileged few who run it. While European countries are beginning to realize
that socialism is fatally flawed, Barack Obama embraces it wholeheartedly and
he’s been implementing it ever since he took office. Our freedoms are being
crushed and ground to dust while we stand by and watch helplessly. Let’s call
it by a more accurate name: tyranny.
Tyrants are
quick to act in difficult times when people are having financial problems. Are
you willing to give up your freedom for a little money from the government and
maybe some free health insurance? In the Old Testament, Esau gave up his
birthright for a bowl of stew. It says he despised his birthright. Many
Americans are doing that now for the mere promise of a handout. But the
handouts have strings attached, actually more like
heavy ropes attached that cut into your flesh and can’t be untied. Government
health care isn’t about health care, it’s about total control. If the
government controls your health care, then politicians control your very life,
and eventually you won’t get that care if you don’t think like them. That’s the
history of the world, and it won’t be any different in America. America has
always been a place that people in oppressed countries want to escape to. But
pretty soon, we will solve our immigration problems because people won’t want
to come here anymore. They’ll want to escape.
Which of the
three kinds of people are you? Are you the second kind that feels angry and
disgusted but does nothing? Are you the third kind that doesn’t grasp the
reality of what’s happening to your country, so you stay wrapped up in your own
little world and ignore it? For a wake up call,
consider what happened in Iran while Barack Obama did nothing. Elections were a
sham and protestors were shot down in the streets. This could happen in America
unless you do something now. You can start by reading the Declaration of
Independence today. It only takes a few minutes. Would you have signed it in
1776? Would you have pledged your life, all that you have, and your sacred
honor to be free, or would you have sucked up to King George to be taken care
of by him? We are living in those same times now, my friends. Our president is
a man who would be king, and he’s making false promises of a utopian society.
There are
organizations that stand for the founding principles of America and for
freedom, and they need your time and money now. There are good, conservative
publications that will give you important facts to defend your country with and
they need you to subscribe. Now is the time for you to sacrifice time and money
like you never have before. One organization you can join is the only political
party in existence that is big enough to stop the socialists and repair the
damage they have done. It is the Republican Party. Get acquainted with their
candidates and help them win every election. Be the first kind of person, and
make it happen.
