Kurt S. Clark, Abilene
As the elder Benjamin Franklin emerged from the Declaration of Independence convention, he was asked by a woman ”Sir, what have we, a republic or monarchy?”
He replied, “A republic if we can keep it.” He realized way back then that our country could be headed for trouble.
Today we have a social democracy. We are headed for communism. When you have a government that will take the wealth you have accumulated and distribute it to those who are not willing to work for it, it is the real teaching of Karl Marx, the writer of “The Communist Manifesto.” It said “to each according to his ability (you work), unto each according to his need (welfare or redistribution of the wealth).” Sound recent.
What are we allowing our country to slip into? We (not I) elected an unknown. It turns out that as a youth he spent many years in an African country that was totalitarian in government, but the people elected him because we were sick of Bush’s dictatorship and he promised change. He just did not outline how.
We need to be more vigilant Nov. 2 this year. Do not re-elect the garbage in Washington. Let us try to restore the republic our forefathers held so dear, not just a democracy which is two wolves and a sheep voting on what is for dinner.
