It is astonishing the number of lemmings we have!

Common sense, the antidote for fear, is in short supply.

Common sense isn't so common anymore.

I know people have been lead to believe that they must be told WHAT to think rather than HOW. I also believe that in a number of cases, people are just too lazy to try. They want everyone else to be responsible what happens in their lives (no personal responsibility or accountability). When anything happens TO them it has to be someone else's fault. (Think about being in the age of the law suit.) I know I've been guilty of this outrageous thinking in the past as well. Thank God I had some great mentors who helped me get my head out of my ass.

Removing one's head from their own ass is a good start! {smile} It needs to happen more often.

I'm really tired of the "blame game". Whatever happened to "S*** Happens"? Roll with it and move on! We don't always have to blame everything on someone else. We can take care of ourselves. Individual thinking is possible!

I grow closer day by day to the idea that we need to bring back The Articles of Confederation in order to eliminate our current federal bureaucracy before resetting our nation according to the original political boundaries of our Constitution.

Maybe not even return to the Constitution - stick with the Articles.

I am completely okay with that. It provides exactly what was originally intended, self-determination.

Currently, it's not illegal to be stupid.
