I could not believe this morning's TV news. There were three items that tells us we are into total socialism in this country. We are not moving in that direction—we are there already! (1) On one news item we were told that the government is going to be telling us what to eat. This will be happening in full measure this fall with our school children. They "must" eat what is ordered by the federal government. The school system will lose its federal funding if they do not comply with the federal government's orders. Then (2) we were told that 95% of us are wearing wrong-fitting shoes. The government will be judging the fitting of shoes for the public to wear. We no longer have the common sense to choose for ourselves! And finally (3) we can no longer sing the songs we want to at very strategic places, like the Lincoln Memorial. A group of high school students were told they could not break out into singing of the national anthem there because it was disruptive! They were asked to stop by the Park Rangers! What better place to sing the national anthem than at the Lincoln Memorial! Our liberties are gone, our choices are over. Our freedoms are no more. We are like the frog in the pan of water. The socialistic heat is being turned up and we don't even notice it. And by the way, if you have not noticed, we have no recourse, no redress as to our grievances. No matter what we say, the powers that be do not listen to us. They go on and do what they want to do, and completely ignore us! It is not impossible that we could move into civil war if the citizens get fed up with the slavery they are taking us toward. Please pray for our nation. The time is getting shorter.
