Todays outlook

Today we seem to face even greater trials in life. Our government is getting more and more intrusive in all areas of life. Each of us have a certain ability to chose where, when, and what we will do...which seems to become a smaaler choice in terms of our opportunities which timely, pass.

In my childhood, everyone seemed to respect the older folks. -- Not so today, many have the attitude that the old folks have no idea what life is all about. It would seem that those we have put in government (to make our lives easier,) have converted our expectations of trust to one of their own. One of greed and pleasures, for themselves,only. Those in power want to perpetuate themselves and work for their own wealth, which seems to segway in their minds toward their beliief that they knpw more, and can better guide us, and thus they exert effort to sustain themselves in the job, and thus become the more controlling and "weathy."

They seem to want to "help us" from the moment in time we are born until the moment we take our last breath. Contrlol of all life is the goal, it would seem. Perhaps they each do not think in these terms - perhaps they relly think that they know best, better in fact than we know. And that their ideas and ways are so much better that by setting goals, and limits, we will not have to think just accept, without input. This loses our power to act, for ourselves, and makes us robots or slaves. Life is ours not that of outhers.

I truly believe we are going into a time when each of us must be more self reliant, with reserves if we have them, set up to sustain us when the controls that are being put in place, prevent any indepent action.

In the past few weeks, the controll over food and other sundaries, has become the provence of Government. Using the supposition that there was a need to prevent impurities and other addities in food, and to protect the consumer, those in govenment have begun to use control over the production and supply of some foods, and they eye all food and drugs.

There has always been a distrust of too much government. This distrust has not abated, but by cleaver use of words, and regulations, we seem to be led (some of us blindfolded) down the garden path into becoming robots or servants. Life was not meant to be such. We each are in our own right, independent, intellegent (opps- some of you may questuion the 'Intellegent') people.
