                                         WHAT DOES MY COUNTRY OWE ME?

   Today when I look around I see so many people with the idea in their heads that their country owes them something.....Lets go back to the basics, lets go back to the founding father and see just what is owed by this country to it's CITIZENS.
   To come to the new world was an opportunity, an opportunity to WORK hard and make a living out from under TYRANNY....There was no welfare, there was no unemployment, there was NOTHING but the sweat off your brow and the muscles in your back, Those things were guaranteed.
   When the declaration of INDEPENDENCE (free from oppressive government) was written until to-day our rights have been SPELLED OUT...In order to make some of the points clearer there was written and ratified a BILL of rights as well as a GOVERNMENT constitution ALL of which spelled out our rights. There was no welfare included in those documents, there was no unemployment, nor Medicaid or ANYTHING ELSES that was socialist in theory. Just a right to work hard be free and get ahead if you could, you were expected to take care of your own and do for yourself...This country also was based on CAPITALISM and by the very nature of capitalism some will be enriched and some will fail but the opportunity is there for all. Capitalism also allows for the control of the markets unless interfered with by government(which we have done to a large degree).
     The government has no business telling me what to buy, It has no business telling others what they can sell nor how to sell it and market it, In fact the government has no business in MY business unless the business I am conducting is ILLEGAL...
      This country was founded on the principal of FREEDOM AND PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY, which seems to be in less demand to-day that it was in 1776.  We have fought wars for freedom and to end TYRANNY and oppression yet here we are to-day allowing the very things we fought against to infiltrate and take over our country.
      Plainly put I see it like this, You do not have the right to welfare(welfare is only to help those in need and should ONLY be for a short time) You do NOT have the right to unemployment, if you lose your job go somewhere else and work, can't find work then either MOVE or get more training.
    It should be your responsibility as a family to take care of your elderly that said however Medicare should be CLOSELY monitored and Medicaid non-existent....YES let the poor fall back on a private donor or short term assistance.
This country owes no body ANYTHING except the right to work and attempt to get ahead and ENJOY their life......The rest is up to you.....Of course you can bring in socialism and let the government control every aspect of you lives but history has PROVEN that will turn to COMMUNISM and some of the people WILL REVOLT---------AGAIN.
