What IS the deal?
“The deal looks bad and smells worse.” –Michelle Malkin
What is the deal with what’s really going on in America? Just what is happening to Americans? Where is this country headed? No one knows for certain. Even those whom we ascribe as being in control of this great land are uncertain. Only God knows for sure. Everything occurs according to His timing, yet He works through the affairs of men to bring things to pass.
“No one can comprehend what goes on under the sun. Despite all his efforts to search it out, man cannot discover its meaning. Even if a wise man claims he knows, he cannot really comprehend it.” (Ecclesiastes 8:17- NIV)
The deal that all Americans currently receive is not good, not good at all. The financial future of our children and grandchildren is already prematurely saddled with a debt that they cannot possibly repay. This is the “deal” that our government made on its own accord-a deal that we were not participants in, yet, incredibly, are expected to tolerate.
Did you sign up for this deal? I ask, because the deal that has been shoved at us is way more than just a by-product of the previous administration, as is always blamed. This quandary is monumental, and we still have no idea just how bad the deal really is. It looks bad; it smells worse. To begin with, each newborn taking his or her first breath of life is basically being handed a receipt of debt, courtesy of our government’s erroneously titled stimulus package. This scenario might appear whimsical, but it’s the truth of the matter—and it’s a shame.
Going forward, that individual must now live a life under a guise of liberty and freedom, both of which have been assaulted by our “leaders” without any consideration of future generations. How can a person truly be free if the nation that he or she is a citizen of has bankrolled his or her financial future?
