It’s Decision Time…..

Well, here we are. November 5th, 2024 and the country is united in its division. Most everyone agrees that THEY are correct and the other side is wrong. If you are reading this you likely know what “side” I’m on. In January, a new leader will assume control of a struggling government, weighed down by broken promises, a massive and corrupt government bureaucracy, and a faltering economy. Public discontent and distrust are trending ever higher.  Wars threaten as inefficiencies and waste plague a military that primarily benefits defense contractors and politicians. We have a national debt within days of hitting $36 trillion dollars. Inflation continues even and citizens are struggling to live day to day. The American Dream is at a minimum on hold.


Corruption and incompetence permeate daily life. While citizens are bound by countless regulations, those in power often evade accountability. Taxpayers shoulder the burden, supporting individuals and entities that give little in return. Many are disillusioned and resisting this flawed system. Just recently we have seen citizens impacted by massive natural disasters receive pennies while billions are sent overseas to fund wars. The lack of priorities for the American people is blatantly obvious.

Frustration grows as government surveillance and censorship intensify. Attempts to limit freedoms reveal the desperation of leaders trying to hold on to control. Within the last few days a government agency broke into a families home, raided for 5 hours destroying belongings – and took the family pets and killed them. All of these government resources used. Why? A squirrel. This is just a tiny example of the utterly corrupt and evil nature of government today.

A revolutionary shift feels increasingly possible, as many believe society should offer more hope and progress. Instead, it often feels bleak and stifling, shaped by leaders who seem indifferent to people’s hardships. 

Though Donald Trump is far from perfect, many rally behind him, viewing him as a necessary force for change. He is hailed as an outsider who threatens the “normal” that has become Washington and bring back some sense of what the Founders established well over 200 years ago. The real strength of America lies with its people, who are driven by the freedom to improve their lives. The ruling class, however, seems preoccupied with power and self-interest, neglecting the aspirations of ordinary citizens. The average citizen has largely become infected by an ideology of those in power to the point that many believe lies as truths.

We will eventually find out the results of the 2024 Presidential Election. I suspect that regardless of who wins, we will lose. While I’d like to provide a statement of encouragement the best I can do is this:
