I was thinking about why some people in USA hate the US government so much. Then I thought about how this country came
into being. There were no rules, regulations or impositions. One could go wherever
anyone wanted, shoot and kill whoever they thought was trespassing on their land or for whatever reason and no
one would question them. And Maybe people
would fear them for it and they could easily rule that place. That is what all the western movies are
about which are so popular?
Of course what all those initial immigrants were not counting on was that there would be more immigrants. This all then leads to having a social structure,
law and order that they would have to abide by.
Slavery in the early days was a result of unchecked morals and greed. Even slavery took a long time to be abolished because the initial government was from the same initial white immigrants. In my opinion there is no moral high ground for slavery in
any era.
With the election of Obama, the first black president (and this is when he is only half black!!), nomination of Trump as a presidential candidate now the acquittal of the Oregon wildlife occupiers that
“western” mentality is coming back. One just wants to do whatever they want and government should just butt out of
it. Well…they don’t believe in
government when they need to obey rules and pay taxes but they will believe in government
when they want their medicare and medicaid!! How does this work??
Any country that excludes because of religion will not survive. Any country that is formed on the basis of religion or class or color will not survive. Diversity is a natural phenomenon. Anyone who does not embrace it will become extinct. I think humanity is getting there…..
