Why is it always someone else’s fault? Why is the government or President always to blame? Why don’t people take their own initiatives?
These are the kind of questions that run through my mind when I hear politicians blaming the system or coming up with some way that they will change the course of history for the better. But come on, who believes that they truly can. Look back through history and tell me how many monumental decisions that a President made that actually changed the course of history for the better.
Why can’t people look out for themselves? When their home mortgage balloons to a rate that they can no longer pay, hey, let’s blame the government for our lack of foresight. The government should have stepped up to the plate to save me from my lack of planning, etc, etc…. rubbish!
Someone builds a house on a mountainside or too close to a flood plain and when mother-nature finally comes calling, sure enough the homeowner wants the government to come to the rescue.
Why are we now conditioned to think that the government is our security blanket and that we can do whatever we want and when our lives begin to sour, its Uncle Sam to the rescue!!! Name one program or sector that the government actually runs efficiently? How often do you hear of government programs studied as positive case studies in classrooms?
People, take control of YOUR lives.
