AMERICA FAILING ?

Is a united nation of sovereign states existing in a land of economic opportunities and personal freedoms dying ?

If so perhaps these are the reasons:

1. We the citizens have allowed government, it's officials and bureaucrats, to become a for profit outfit.  The system is corrupt with self serving lobbyists, enormous & wasteful spending of tax payer money, and tenured "public servants" who serve themselves always before serving American citizens.

2. We the citizens have allowed our pleasures and self gratification to exceed our civic duties. We have grown ignorant of our history and culture. We have been forced to focus on the exceptions to our generally good national record. Powers controlling media, entertainment, and culture have weakened our educational system.

3. We the citizens have allowed our government to develop a system of rewards to anyone and everyone in exchange for political loyalty. Government systems that reward people with money or material goods while beneficiaries are exempted from making any physical sacrifice or financial contribution are immoral. This system is further spoiled by extending the giveaways to illegal immigrants.

Electing a political outsider like Donald Trump was a good step, but was it too little too late to rescue our nation from collapse ? Trump's immense energy and pragmatism bode well in his quest "to make America great again". However, with the deep state of swampy bureaucrats, media leftists, dems and  RINO law makers opposing TRUMP at all levels how can our nation be made great ? The unexpected and deep swell of national support from voters is a great asset for the president, but it is a national shame that the will and agenda of so many citizens is sidetracked daily by the deep pockets of leftist power brokers.

President Trump, his political base, and supporters must demand remedies be made to government to maintain our constitutional and capitalist republic as the worlds bastion of personal liberty and free enterprise with these measures:

1. Institute term limits for members of Congress and the Supreme Court. Old men and women in positions of great power have rob our nation of energy and innovation. Mandatory retirement ages must be instituted to liberate Congress from becoming an old folks home. Also, when career politicians spend too much time courting financial sponsors and lobbyists to win their next term they cheat their constituents of full representation.

2. Highlight, respect and uphold the Constitutions first great order to "insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense". Do this by re building and maintaining the worlds greatest military force and supporting local police with the resources necessary to rid our streets of crime.

3. Secure our borders and require immigrants to learn English, swear allegiance, and adopt the customs, culture and holidays of America. Stop sending foreign aid to enemies or those allied with our enemies.

4. Disband most of the federal governments web of "ABC" agencies and allow states the funding and authority to govern more affairs of it's citizens. In addition to trillions in savings, breaking up the deep state of career bureaucrats in DC will lead to more efficient federal governmental services.

5. Clean up entitlement programs. If a citizen has contributed money to a federally sponsored retirement, education or health plan, made a physical or psychological sacrifice by military or government service, or is 100% unable to provide for themselves, they are entitled to government assistance. Government handouts to illegal immigrants, work capable individuals, and others must be carefully monitored to avoid fraud.

6. Get the federal government out of all the things that can be handled more efficiently at a lower cost by elements of the free market. Health care, rebuilding the nations infrastructure, veterans care, public broadcasting, postal services, and running trains are just a few examples of activities best served by private enterprise.

Americans who voted Trump must be loud and tall in loyalty to the idea of "making America great again". The republic is worth saving for future generations and the agents actively and sometimes violently opposing Trump, cleaning the DC swamp and making government more efficient must be countered and soundly defeated.
