The government close down
The government close down
I sometimes look around and think where am I? What country do I live in anymore?
It's like the world has lost their minds especially the people in my own country.
Racism is at it's highest, I don't know maybe it was always there. But they were locked away in their closets with their white sheets and now with #45, they feel free to come out again.
People are hateful to one another, all because we have different of opinions.
Everyone wants to be a social media star. Doing whatever it takes to get there, including putting others down, fighting, showing their ass or having sex on tape. Anything to get their 5 minutes of fame, it's just crazy.
And now #45 has shut down the federal government because he wants his wall and he wants it now! This partial shutdown became the longest in American history on Jan. 12. It is now on it's 22nd day.
The longest ever, even surpassing the 21-day record set in 1995.
And there is no end in sight, all because this man wants his way and to hell with everyone else. It doesn't matter that families are being effected by this. Many families I know personally are suffering, no paychecks in a month and none to be seen even though they still have to work. Because if they take a vacation or a leave of absence they will lose their back pay if and when they ever get it.
They are too afraid to leave and so they keep working for free...now doesn't that sound like slavery to you?
And people are okay with this?
Build that wall, even though we have a wall, even though we can be spending this 21 Billion yes, I said Billion with a capital B! On something more important.
Even though there are families who are close to homelessness and are missing meals, even when our children are going to school hungry as the programs are being cut to feed them.
No, it is more important to build to build this 21 Billion dollar frigging wall!
So there would be a series of fences and walls that would cost $21.6 billion, and take more than three years to construct.
This was in the U.S. Department of Homeland Security report on Thursday.
The report's estimated price-tag said it would be much higher than first said by #45 and his campaign. They lied and said it would be around $12-billion.
Tell me does it make a difference between 12 billion or 21 Billion? When our own people are homeless and hungry? When families have to mortgage their homes for healthcare for their children? When families like mine or so many others are working 3 jobs just to get by? When our children are hundred of thousands of dollars in debt just to get an education and still can't find jobs when they graduate?
Is it just me or is this asinine? Hello!! This makes no sense.
You can't have a tantrum, throw yourself on the floor and scream "If you don't do it my way I will shut everything down!"
That is not democracy, that my friends is communism pure and simple.
I know in my church these hard working people will have checks this week as we will be paying them. We hope to keep paying them through out this as this is what families do. We are filled with love and compassion for one another. Like the rest of the world should be.
Where is the outcry, the protests, the people standing up for what is right and wrong and this is clearly wrong on all fronts.
So today my friends I will leave you with this famous quote from a poem written by the German Lutheran pastor
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out.
Because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out.
Because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out.
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak for me.
Think about that...if you and I don't start speaking out, getting involved and standing up for what is right, pretty soon we won't have a voice left.
"Be the change you want to see"
"And just when the caterpillar thought his life over...he turned into a beautiful butterfly"
