Limitations
There is a desire within each human being to have more than they currently have. This desire is a natural phenomenon of just being alive and it is a force which makes life worth living. This desire to have more is the very foundation of our society, it is the reason we have the homes we live in, the cars we drive, and the life we have grown up with. We call it capitalism, but elitist and politicians call it greed.
There are three ways to have money in this life: 1) Inherit it, 2) Steal it, and 3) Earn it. There is no other way a person, regardless of nationality can have money in this life. Well what about the lottery you ask. To which I reply this method falls under inheritance, since you spent a dollar to purchase the ticket and if you are lucky enough to have the proper numbers, then you inherit it. Sorry three ways and no more. Oh I guess there is one more way: tax payer subsidies. But I count that as stealing.
Now since very few of us will inherit a fortune or pick the winning ticket, that pretty much leaves two options, steal it or earn it. Now if we decide to go down the criminal path, that can lead to incarceration or worse. I’ll let you fill in the rest. So that leaves the majority of us with only one option, to earn money, the honest way.
So let us look at the situation we find ourselves in this holiday season and that is the concept of class envy. This is a concept dreamed up by today’s politicians for only one reason, to remove all concepts of wealth from your mind and force you to give your life and soul to the politician and their policies. In other words slavery.
Man’s natural desire (and yes women too) is to become and have more in life. The amount of the “more” is an individual matter because what is enough for one person may be insignificant for another. It doesn’t really matter; the only thing that does matter is your desire to increase your own life by having more money which means more freedom (and less dependence upon a politician).
I can hear you now at just how bad such a thought is. But truth is truth and another truth is this: God placed enough bounty on this earth to enrich every man, woman, and child (all seven billions of us) a thousand times over. And the Earth is so designed that it will never run out of bounty because Mother Nature knows how to recycle everything. It may take a thousand years but recycling is the nature of the Earth.
What limits everything is mankind himself. Specifically selfish individuals who are so scared of living up to their own expectations and potential that they create limitations for everyone else, and many of these individuals are today’s politicians. Yet the kicker is they create limitations for everyone except themselves. They are “exempt” from everything they limit the rest of us from having. From oil to food, it doesn’t matter as the “elected elites” among us think they know what we need and how much we need. They call it compassion, I call it rationing.
To prevent us from reaching our full potential the politicians of today are telling us that to have more is evil, to be rich is evil, and to improve ourselves is self-serving. Never mind that these same individuals are extremely rich themselves, living a life style they demand we never have.
We live in the United States of America where individual freedom is the cornerstone of financial freedom. But we are told this country is evil and rotten because we steal from the poor nations of the Earth.
Eh, no. The poor nations of the Earth are poor because the dictators steal from their own people, refuse to allow freedom, and demand this country subsidize them, which we do. The question is why? The answer is simple: to let our politicians “feel” good about themselves.
This Christmas many of us are feeling the financial pinch and some of us are in serious financial trouble. The kicker is this situation is all deliberate, on purpose for one reason: Empowerment of the elites. There is no reason this country should be in this financial mess but we allow it to be, and we must bear the burden of our ignorance.
We limit ourselves because we want to limit ourselves. We place burdens upon us because we want to place burdens upon us. Life is difficult enough without us adding to the burden, which we always seem to do. And when Mother Nature goes on a rampage life can be a living hell, a hell some can never recover from.
Life is meant to be lived to the fullest extent possible and those that want to live it fully should be encouraged to do so. But for some reason the “selected” among us has determined to make everyone’s life a living nightmare by limiting possibilities.
But not me. Not me. I may be money broke but I am free to think, to dream, and eventually to succeed in the way I want to succeed. What about you, dare you dream of financial freedom and the ability to live life the way you want to? I have challenged myself and now I challenge you to follow suit.
