Happy Birthday, U.S.A.!
This union of 50 states, and comprised of somewhat over 300 million individuals, has meant so much to so many, for so long ... my heart aches to see where we're headed. And the current destination seems obvious, for we've watched most of Europe go this way in previous decades. They, of course, have discovered that it doesn't work, and are turning back toward free capitalism, in varying degrees.
For the first time in my lifetime of over a half-century, I am uncertain about the future of this country - and what that future might be.
Nevertheless, I have always been, and shall always be, grateful for the huge sacrifices made by the founders, and all who have since fought for this nation.
And make no mistake: this Union is worth fighting for (preserving).
If it fails, those States which are strong will survive. Only the bloated federal government - one which far exceeds its 19 or 20 enumerated Constitutional powers - will have fallen. Frankly, given its current condition, I'm not sure that would be any great loss.
Happy 233rd birthday, United States of America! And to all my friends and readers, be safe - be happy - be blessed - and never forget what we celebrate on the fourth day of July, each year.
GOD BLESS AMERICA!
Psalm 22:27-28: “All the ends of the world shall remember and turn to the Lord, and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee. For the kingdom is the Lord's, and he ruleth among the nations.”

Yeah, I figure about the same...and I am considering a move to one of those states that I think has a chance of making it without the feds...Texas
