Emotion vs. Logic
The discussion of raising the minimum wage shows how different the 2 points of view are.

Thin human herds not animals
Don’t you think it’s time to start thinking quality rather than quantity for human life? My living will and health care proxy clearly states if I am paralyzed, in a permanent vegetative state and so on can’t feed myself (the big A) pull the plug. Living like that is not life, in my mind it is hell on earth!
Oh can one of you Christians out there who believes in and praises heaven as fantastic beautiful and the best there explain why you and your religion want to keep alive a loved one who is clearly not living a true life but rather just kept alive on machines? I think that’s cruel and inhuman, but what do you expect of a religion that treats women as second class?

Government job titles
Our politicians have lost their way, they have forgotten the sacred trust they inherited from those who came before and that simply is, the protection and betterment of the United States of America and her legal citizens called Americans. They are not responsible for bettering the quality of life or the governing any other nation. Especially, when the bettering of the other nation lowers the quality of life for Americans.
They have forgotten that in a republic the government derives its powers from the people. Its job is to serve the people it is not the people’s job to serve the government.
It is time to vote out all the politicians who think their title ends in “The World” and elect officials who understand the title ends in “the United States of America”. People who understand the legacy left them by Thomas Jefferson, John Adams and the like who envisioned not a ruling elite class of politicians but rather common men coming together for a short period not a career to best help govern their friends and countrymen to make and keep America free and the best country in the world.

I'm Tired
I’m tired of hearing about the rights of prisoners who are incarcerated because they violated the rights of others.
I’m tired of hearing about the rights of welfare recipients who never contributed to society yet expect society to take care of them.
I’m tired of the rights of politicians to receive retirement from an elected position and better health care and pay then the average taxpayer.
I’m tired of my tax dollars going to other countries when they should take care of themselves.
I’m tired of America playing the world’s policeman and wasting the lives of American youths and tax dollars with no benefit to America.
Now I have questions.
When did I and tens of millions of taxpayers lose the right to keep the money we earn?
When did I and tens of millions of taxpayers lose the right to better ourselves and our families financially and materially?
When?
America was built on the American dream of building a better and more comfortable life for ourselves and our families through hard work, when did that change? Maybe when people who were too lazy to work for themselves started electing politicians who would steal from the working taxpayers under the guise of taxes and give it to themselves and the lazy? I read that one major sign of the death of a great nation/civilization was when people started voting themselves money. I think we’re there.
What incentive do I or any taxpayer have to work harder, more hours, go for a promotion anything that we use to do in the past to better ourselves? None, not when all that will happen is more money will be taken out of our pay to better the lives of those I mentioned earlier. What inventions are being lost, what great strides in life are not happening all because people who are lazy feel they are entitled to the same lifestyle as people who work for what they want and they keep electing politicians who take from the workers and give to the shiftless.
This needs to stop or America is dead.

Save Halloween
This is the amendment that allows freedom of religion and the separation of church and state. I guess what Mr. Larson didn’t know was that Halloween is Samhain (pronounced Soween) and is a Holy day in the Wiccan religion. Wicca is a legally recognized religion in the US so to my understanding it would be protected by the Constitution. His suggestion is the same as suggesting Christmas be held on the 3rd Sunday in Dec.
The other interesting point is that the press also protected in this same amendment did not raise a hue and cry, but rather asked what people thought. I’ll grant they were probably not aware of the religious significance of Samhain/Halloween.
Unless the 1st Amendment is repealed this law can not be, since it is unconstitutional from the beginning.
I would strongly suggest the media pay more attention to the different laws that are proposed since a change in the 1st Amendment could adversely affect them.

RIP American dream
The American Dream has died. It did not die a natural death it was murdered. It was murdered not by a terrorist organization or foreign government, Al Qaeda did not cause its demise. It was murdered by the people whose job was to protect it, the elected public servants in the American Congress. The men and women who swore an oath to protect and defend America and its citizens failed to uphold that oath. They gave away American jobs to foreign countries. They allowed corporations to form "almost" monopolies that drove American mom & pop stores and businesses across the country out of business. They allow oil speculators and monopolistic American and foreign oil companies to destroy the American economy. They waste trillions of American tax dollars in wars in foreign countries that have no benefit to the American taxpayer. They give trillions of tax dollars and medical aid to illegal immigrants. Yet nothing is done to help the Americans who have worked their whole lives and contributed to America and Social Security. There is no raise for Social Security recipients no help with medical, no help with mortgages or rent.
They give themselves raises and the best medical in the world for life as well as a retirement from one term in office. The taxpayers who pay for this need to work for decades to hopefully be able to retire.
It is time to vote them all out of office. When the government ignores the Constitution and the needs and the desires of American citizens the Declaration of Independence guides us in what we need to do.
It is time to resurrect the American Dream, to vote in people who will "provide new Guards for their future security". It is time to end unjust taxation with questionable representation it is 1776 again. It is time to put in term limits, end their retirement and medical, set their pay and medical to that of an average American. We need to elect public servants who will pass laws that will protect America and make her great again.
