The path forward

Where do we go from here?

It is a great question and one that must be asked then answered.

Our political landscape is in dire need for remodel. The most recent events prove that the path we are on is not only unmanageable, it is catastrophic. 

Every civilization fails. Every. Single. One. Does that mean that we must follow suit? Must we just properly manage the decline? Is it possible to turn all of this around?

We most certainly can turn it around. Do we have the fortitude to do so? Will we have that fortitude? I cannot answer that question but we can lay out what is necessary and prudent to turn the tide. 

To solve the problem, the answer is not complicated. To accept that answer and apply simple principles to correct the wrong, that is entirely different. 

We have ancient answers to modern problems. There is nothing new under the sun, as is said in that great ancient Text. 

Walk with me as we step through the answers. If we decide to actually right the wrongs? That's entirely up to each individual and their fortitude.

Libertarianism

By
  Murray Rothbard, attributed to the Ludwig von Mises Institute. Libertarianism is a political philosophy that emphasizes individual liberty as its key principle. It advocates for a minimal state presence in the lives of individuals, arguing that people should be free to live as they choose, provided they do not infringe on the rights of others. The core ideas of libertarianism revolve around the concepts of personal freedom, economic freedom, and a skepticism of authority, especially governmental authority. Here is a detailed summary of its main tenets, variations, and criticisms: Core Tenets: Individual Liberty:  Libertarianism places the highest value on individual freedom, believing that individuals have the right to make choices for themselves in all aspects of their lives. This includes freedom of speech, religion, association, and the right to privacy. Limited Government:  Libertarians advocate for a government that is limited in scope and powers, focusing primarily on protectin

Quick Hits #2

By
Trump Wins New Hampshire.      Donald Trump easily takes New Hampshire from Nikki Haley, although the race was much closer than Iowa. While this gives Trump great advantage, South Carolina may be a closer race than one thinks. Trump has recently been ordered to pay $83 million to E. Jean Carroll in a defamation suit. Wither we believe the charges and such against Trump are true or false, the hits keep coming. At what point will the "straw that breaks the camels back" fall? At what point do we realize that Trump cannot win the general election? Will it be after a November loss? Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is polling at  20% in some political areas. We need to understand that Kennedy is a Democrat who believes that the DNC, and the "woke" citizens, have lost their minds. Even running as an Independent, Kennedy could win. He will pull votes from Trump and many from Biden. He needs to be taken seriously and the GOP needs to take a long hard look, before the South Carolina pr

Where Do We Start?

By
George Washington, Prayer at Valley Forge, National Archives,  Engraving by John McRae from painting by Henry Brueckner      Its been a while since I have posted, as I was at a loss for words. The following are some introductory thoughts on where we are wrong and how we can begin to get back to being who the pioneers of this country intended us to be.       It was God's design for man to be free. When I say free, I mean without earthly overlord. From the beginning, Abraham followed the law of the land but only faithful to God. As a matter of fact, so much was his great faith that the Hebrew writer states several times in chapter 11, "...by faith Abraham". Yes, it is my intention to directly tie faithfulness to God with freedom. That specific thought will be developed in later posts, but for now we see that Abraham really had no king but God.      The Israelites had no king when they left Egypt. Yes, they had Moses, but Moses took his direction straight from God. The Israe
