Paradice Lost

The pitfalls of our Democratic Republic are many. If we allow what is already a media circus to continue especially with the Trump trial and it’s aftermath this nation faces a most unsecure future. Today 5 oligarchs control the media as well as the leading corporate economic structure of our nation. They have set in motion the chain of events that are orchestrated to continue to accelerate Americas decline.

The illusion of a free press is just that. No longer are we, the public, in control of our own destiny. We are now being corralled in splinter ideologies filled with raciest overtones that have eroded the very bases of our founding. If this nation is going to survive, we need to realize that the common denominator that binds us all is outlined in the Bill of Rights and the Original US Constitution. 

Over the last few decades through partisan politics, supreme court decisions, media manipulation as well as our educational decline the United States faces an unpresented climb back to what our Founding Fathers envisioned for this nation. The future of our world hinges on what we do. Do we sit back and allow our society to succumb to the travesties that are occurring right under our feet.? Or do we have the fortitude to realize what we as Americans can do to put balance back in our society?  

The challenges the world faces can no longer be ignored, deemed irrelevant, or otherwise remain oblivious.  And yet the challenges are never met head on only skirted around. The inability of our government and governments all around the world to meet the challenges of our times has jeopardized the future for us all.

The challenges that have placed the world on edge have to addressed with the will to usher in the reforms and policy directives that will pave the way to secure our future as a nation while bringing peace through-out the world. When President Lincoln in his Gettysburg Address stated, ” That government of the people, by the people and for the people shall not perish from the earth.” has long since been eclipsed from the memories of so many. Today our government has drifted so far away from those hallowed words, a government of the people and by the people to now we are functioning under an oligarchy ruling class.

We are a nation that has lost sight of what our Founding fathers and Abraham Lincoln stood for. One nation under God with liberty and justice for all is no longer part of the equation for the United States. These are very serious times, and we need serious leaders who bring empathy, compassion, humility and humanity who look to the future with vision of a more just and peaceful world. Something that is tragically missing by the people we have elected for the past few decades.

The leaders that we have had could affect the changes needed to meet the challenges we are facing. Yet it seems they are incapable of understanding the ways to implement the reforms and policy directives that would meet those challenges. Too often as the saying goes, they are missing the boat and in fact they never come to the right pier.

There are ways, reforms and policy directives that meet the challenges of our times. In the United States implementation of National Economic Reform’s Ten Articles of Unification is a first step to bring balance back to our society. When there is balance in societies brings more civility in populations. What the world needs now more than ever is civility among nations and balance in societies. If the leaders, we choose fail to meet the challenges of our times like they have been doing the final outcome may just be humanities worst nightmare.
