I used to look at things in black and white and then I got older and somewhat retired. Now I look at Patriots as those that work for the betterment of the USA at all levels. Instead we have politicians that look out only for the betterment of themselves and their cronies and the USA be damned.
The problem today is someone is always getting something for nothing and it isn’t just those on the bottom even though there are far too many. Those on top get just as much and even more but it is divided among a few. How much did the WS bankers get from us as a reward for being major players in sinking the economy? We need to end and outlaw the cycle of lobbyists and interests controlling government except for the numbers of individual citizens that actually support their group, not the amount of money that they can collect.
I get concerned about those and any group who controls our government for their (not USA’s) benefit. They are the real threat.
I agree with every word of your post!
