State of my country

If my father were alive today, he would be ashamed of what this country has become and I mention him because he would have had a big right to criticize.  He was a WW2 veteran who was in Underwater Demolitions in the South Pacific. So, yeah, he would have had a right to criticize because he fought for those rights and was slated to die for those rights if we had invaded Japan.  He was to be on the fist wave in the invasion.  That is the background and now I will voice my criticism based on his teachings to me.
1) we may not like who the voters voted into the White House, but it is our responsibility to support that person.  Reason being is that if he fails we all fail.  And we have to present a united front to the world.
2) Our citizenship is our second most cherished and important right.  The first being the right to vote.  3) We should be very selective to whom we grant that citizenship.

What I have watched happen over the last 50 years is a contempt that has grown for our own government.  A contempt that was caused by our won government.  Let's look back to the Vietnam era.  The government granted deferments to those with money or those who were lucky enough to get enrolled in college before they were drafted right out of high school.  And those that were granted those deferments used their time to party while those less lucky were being killed every day. Every.Damn.Day.  And those who were being killed were being treated like less than the garbage we throw away even by our own congress.  Those anti-war marches, well they took place because the government stopped giving deferments and those little darlings were going to be drafted.  They were a bunch of cowards and totally without any redeeming features.  Take a look at Bush and Cheney.  Neither had the guts to serve in Vietnam, but neither had any problem with sending our sons and daughters into the mess in the Middle East because Cheney wanted to make money and Bush fancied himself a war president.  As with Vietnam, Daddy's money stayed behind.  And Daddy's money had no qualms about the slaughter of our own.  And now Daddy's money is what we have in congress lining their pocket with ill gotten gains and outright theft.

Moving on to today, what we have in congress today were the draft dodgers then.  They have no scruples.  They are open to the highest bidder.  They have allowed dark money to control our politics.  They can stop it at any time, but they don't want to.  They are in it for themselvves and not the country.  hence we are overrun with illegal aliens, refugees, and naturalized citizens who want only what they can get from us.  And they all have someplace to run to when our country hits the skids.  Illegals have no problem/. They just scoot back to their country.  Refugees the same.  They still have citizenship in their own countries and so do the naturalized citizens.  Where can Americans go?  Nowhere.  We will be left to clean up the mess as usual.  And those backing this influx of illegals and refugees and others, well when SHTF and they are broke, you will hear whining and crying the likes of which will make the present day mess seem like a cakewalk.  And where will the money that has cause all this be?  Safely tucked away somewhere and snickering at the chaos they have cause.  Those billionaires do not give a tinkers damn about the country.  They are in it for themselves and they are busy undermining our government and congress just trots right along like a little lap dog.
