Where Have All The Leaders Gone?
"Am I the only person in America who's fed up with what's happening today? Where the hell is our outrage? We should be screaming bloody murder. We've got a gang of clueless bozos steering out country right over a cliff. We've got corporate gangsters stealing us blind but instead of getting mad and doing something about it everyone sits around nodding their heads while the politicians say stay the course."
This blog is here to bring you the truth about what's happening and what you can do about it. Remember freedom isn't free, you always have to fight for it. There are people all over our country and this world constantly trying to take that away from you. The first part of this blog is to give you an idea of what it's like not having the freedoms we enjoy everyday.
Billions of people live without freedom. In the worst of these countries, they live in fear and insecurity. They are literally slaves, bought and sold, or the effective slaves of their governments. They are hungry, starving, or diseased. They live in primitive refugee camps; are suffering under torture or the immediate threat of death; are diseased and soon to die without treatment. They are prisoners, concentration camp inmates, or in death camps. They are soldiers subject to the most barbarous treatment or involved in lethal combat. They are children performing dangerous forced labor. They are civilians cowering under bombing and shelling. They are women who are second-class citizens and cannot leave their home without completely covering themselves, the permission of their husband, and the presence of a male relative. They are the aged and infirm that barely subsist under dangerous environmental conditions. Even those who escape all this and manage to feel happy and safe for the moment still live under the realistic threat that war, revolution, disease, famine, extreme poverty and deprivation, or a dictator may destroy their lives, or those of their loved ones. So they live in fear of arrest and prison, of disappearance forever, of forced labor, genocide, mass murder, and an unnatural death.
Even in countries that are partially free, they may still be arbitrarily arrested, subject to torture, executed without a fair trial, spied upon, and denied even basic rights because of their race, religion, or nationality. Criticize the government and especially, its dictator or leader, and death may follow.
