Charlie Daniels: Where did it all go wrong?

Icon for Post #83999I am seriously concerned with the place our nation is right now and even more seriously concerned about where it is headed.
It seems that part of the people care about what’s happening, part don’t care and a large part doesn’t know and don’t want to know.
Any thinking person who loves their children and grandchildren has to stop and consider the disaster this generation is passing on to them. I say this generation, knowing that preceding generations had a lot to do with our plight, but we as the generation in charge when the tipping point came, are the last generation that had a chance to do anything about it before the international train wreck happens and it seems that we, at least a majority of us, have chosen to keep our heads under the cover hoping the monsters will be gone when we come up for air.
Of course that’s not going to happen and as much as it goes against the eternal optimist in me to say it, I fear… no, I’m convinced that the United States of America will shortly find our collective testicles in a pair of vise grips and our feet bogged down in knee deep mud.
Our current economic policies are just impossible to sustain and as the debt explodes, the dollar decreases in value, the entitlement rolls grow and America is encouraged to become more and more dependent on a monolithic central government, we will never pull out of our self induced nose dive before our fiscal plane crashes to the ground.
Having said that – and by the way, for the benefit of you cherry pickers, I fervently hope I’m wrong – I got to wondering what thing, or combination of things, brought us to this sorry state of affairs.
