America’s Problems

Wonder what George Washington or Thomas Jefferson or AbrahamLincoln or John Kennedy would say if they could come back and view the state of our union today? Could anyone of them have imagined the depth of our problems or debt? Reading our newspaper every day another group is saying “hey you are shorting my group on cash….. defense department, welfare, social security, other government agencies, school districts, city and county governments and on and on goes the list. And we don’t let up, do we? Its well, pay me and the others can work it out. And we keep adding to the woes daily…Number one, we have those folks who have entered our country illegally and seems they expect to get the same benefits as the American citizen. It would certainly be nice of us to do that and we have been doing that far to often. Some of our own are suffering on a daily basis and they need care..Counts vary as to how many are here, but they are estimated to be in the millions…People discuss immigration reform as needed and quite possibly it is needed and it should be looked into, but none of that means giving amnesty to those in our country illegally. Do it the right way and get a green card and you will be ok. That would be a big savings…. Number two, we are a nation hated all over the world and our young men still give their lives for freedom for those who hate us, have no interest in democracy and will return to their old way of life when we leave. As soon as our interest in an international affair has played out, let us leave. We spend billions of dollars every day protecting those people who’s main weapon is a human bomb…They have no respect for a human life, their own, their children or their women folk. Let them have it. Do any of them grieve when a young man from say, New Mexico or Texas or Alabama or Wisconsin or Arizona, dies on their soil fighting for them a better way of life. Just another day. I’m sorry, but we have done enough….Let’um have it….Bring our boys home…There is going to be wars and rumors of war until the end of time, so if it don’t involve us, let us keep our young men home….Can I get an amen on that….There are many other things bringing down our country, ways we could be saving, things we could do and you can add your list of things to mine…I would like to see no more foreign oil, if we are going to have to pay 5.00 per gallon for gas, let it be from American crude only. We can put Americans to work searching for new oil and finding more efficient means of powering our vehicles, and by all means our use of the public transportation systems.



Amen!!! And you said you had writers’ block! You see! If you keep at it, the words just keep coming. I support bringing our boys home especially from places like South Korea where they have been for 60 years. Sixty years are too long to fight one war especally when new wars pop up every year. If we keep staying in Korea, we will soon own the country if the old English Common Law is applied.
Thanks for your comments, Errol….
Sometimes it is very useful and interesting to add a video to post, that makes your imagination process much more clear.
I approved this spam comment because of the term, “imagination” being used. America’s problems are not my imagination, it is very real. And as far as a video being added, you are correct and I would probably choose a GI holding his bloody buddy in his arms giving him some degree of comfort while waiting for the medics to bring first aid. I think I know what you are saying and I agree a picture is worth a thousand words.
Do you people have a facebook fan page? I looked for one on twitter but could not discover one, I would really like to become a fan!
No, Mike Ross I do not have a facebook page…I can never remember my passwords, I have about 4….So, just continue to come to hesterbooks.com. You came in under spam and I delete an awful lot of the spam comments….Thanks for your interest..Pete Hester
