Freedom in the USA
Intuitively, because I am free, I expect our military to keep our country secure and free, to be the worlds best for combat, best for relief operations, and best for keeping the peace.
Our freedom, a secure country, and a secure prosperous world depend on the willingness and ability of the United States to lead. Our constitutional freedom has always been our greatest strength.
Our failing to focus or keep an eye on the ball of freedom is our greatest weakness.
Our constitution and preamble provide a starting point for that focus.
To establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty, costs money and difficult budget decisions must constantly be made. Budget cuts recklessly aimed at the paychecks and capabilities of our military undermine our country from the foundation to the pinnacle of freedom.
Our country was built like a strong pyramid. At the pinnacle is freedom. A freely elected government based on the constitution; supported by a strong economy, backed by hard working Americans and the greatest military in the world, secure freedom from its broad foundation to its highest peak.
A sure way to destroy a country is to demoralize its people by spreading misinformation, diverting focus, and taking money from the people who support the country and giving it to those who do not.
Hard working people and a fledgling military with courage, integrity, diligence, focus, and a desire to vote and be free, fought and died to create and grow the economy of our great country.
It’s going to take hard working people and a strong military with courage, integrity, diligence, focus and the same desire to vote and be free to sustain it.
