@buckscorner411Eighth generation Old Yankee from Dad, and immigrant stock from Mom. Ardent seeker after light and truth. Friend of the United States Constitution.
To preserve the federalist system, protecting liberty and justice, state legislatures must be represented in the United States Senate. Our Founding fathers understood this and wrote Article V of the Constitution to assure it would not be amended away. Amend. 17 was passed anyway.
I don't believe he can do anything for society. It requires positive volition with desire to be virtuous. Evil is not caused by wealth. Wealth simply becomes God for many. Greed, Wealth, material assets become one's lust and controlling factor of one's desires and decisions.
First he would have to admit he is a sinner and second “money is his God”
America is or still can be a land of the free. It is home to millions of wise, honest, caring, creative, hard-working men and women who love their Heavenly King and their fellows, who try do good, often with much sacrifice, without notice or compensation. I love her.
U.S.C. Amend. 9: The enumeration in the Constitution of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people. The United States was established as a land of liberty for all people. Bad men abuse its founding principles. We must choose good.
Beware those who call other people names when they themselves are guilty. Nazi means National Socialism. Communism is a form of government in which the government owns and controls what is done and produced. We must not have them here, nor must we have National Hypocrisy.
"A democracy ... can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largess of the public treasury. ... a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy." -- Alex Fraser Tytler (1732-1813) We must keep the United States a federal republic.
"But I go on this great republican principle, that the people will have virtue and intelligence to select men of virtue and wisdom. Is there no virtue among us? If there be not, we are in a wretched situation. . . -- no form of government can render us secure." James Madison
The United States is a Republic with separation of powers: Congress makes laws; the President executes them. States, cities & towns make rules about local matters. If the law is respected, rules for marriage and abortion are of no worthy concern for the presidential election.
A bishop served his ward well, conducting meetings, counseling, meeting member's needs, volunteering his time all day every Sunday. When released, he went fishing one Sunday. Upon returning, his house was gone!!! A note on the foundation read: "Sorry we missed you, Enoch."
I early voted in Connecticut, stood in line a long time to register, and in another to file. My assessment is that, although the procedure here is secure, it's also very expensive, especially when the hours of lost productive time are considered, plus the cost of poll workers.
"I am not among those who fear the people. They, and not the rich, are our dependence for continued freedom. "We must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our election between economy and liberty or profusion and servitude." -- Ben Franklin
