The only option is to start with ourselves

But, I wasn’t successful.
So I decided to change the country.
But, I wasn’t successful.
So I decided to change my community.
But, I wasn’t successful.
So I decided to change my street.
But, be wasn’t successful.
So I decided to change my family.
But, I wasn’t successful.
So I decided to change myself.
AND I WAS SUCCESSFUL (still a work in progress) :).
AND MY FAMILY CHANGED AND THEY AFFECTED THEIR STREET.
AND THE PEOPLE ON THE STREET AFFECTED THEIR COMMUNITY.
AND THE PEOPLE OF THE COMMUNITY AFFECTED THEIR COUNTRY.
AND THE PEOPLE OF THE COUNTRY AFFECTED THE WORLD.

Folks, the system remains intact just as our founders envisioned, but it has been corrupted by flawed men. The only way we are going to allow our system to work the way it was designed is to change ourselves and hold ourselves to the standards which we know to be true.

Look at the bondholders of GM who were unilaterally wiped out regardless of priority contracts, look at the little investors in MF Global who got wiped out but JP Morgan and Goldman were made whole (even approved by the BK judge and unlike Bernie Madoff, Corzine gets off scott free) ...when WE became a nation of men deciding who are the winners and losers WE allowed those corrupt men to change us from being a nation of laws. When the President is openly bypassing Congress to implement his own agenda and no one cares (and useful idiots applaud not even realizing that the President is fundamentally undermining the Constitution)...we are getting what we deserve for not standing up for the system with which we were entrusted. Until we are willing to hold each other accountable to the law...our system is truly lost.

We have but one more exit on the highway to destruction...I hope the great people of these United States see the signs and are willing to take the exit and get off this fast lane to societal ruin.
