God and Country 15 More of the Same

11 Feb

Are “We the People”, “We the People”, or are “We the People” a segment of the people. Therefore, the answer asks the question are you happy with the United States of America?

I was raised in a time when certain things were just accepted to be true and evident. When one worked for a company one gave all they had while working for the company short of something immoral. Immoral was defined as someone asking one to do something that one felt was wrong and one saying, “That’s just not right”.

We all had a sense of morality. We knew what was right and what was wrong. No one had to tell us what was right or wrong. The environment in which we were raised guided us in the right direction.

We worked hard for the companies and expected them to take care of our efforts by providing good salaries and helping us when we retired. Companies didn’t take the hint, so unions had been formed. They were necessary then, but they became as unfeeling as the companies the members were fighting. However, the members were better off that too many that were just making enough money to exist. The exception was government workers that made good money and could look forward to good retirements. The union members and the government workers made up about 2/3s of the work force. That left about 1/3 less fortunate workers.

The companies and the rich seems to think if they keep the workers less fortunate concentrating on survival they can serve their god which is mammon. If the less fortunate concentrate on their God which gives them eternal life. They are citizens of heaven anyway.

However, God wants the less fortunate to have more than existence. He wants them to have plenty of what they need, so they can help others to also build their rewards in heaven.

The answer is to have good people in congress that will see to the needs of those less fortunate. We don’t have to settle for more of the same, but we have to vote our conscience and not the conscience of mammon, so if you are not registered to vote now. Register and vote in every election.
