Obama Approval Rating Gains in the Polls

By Allan Gainer

 We are seeing a huge change in political thought throughout the country the past ten years.  People are becoming more complacent and more want government to take care of them instead of them manning up to take care of themselves.  I am appalled at the dependencies of these people.  The fact that scares me is that over 50% of the people in the US get some form of entitlement from the government and this doesn't include Medicare or Social Security.  This is inexcusable.  This is the sign of end of a country or a rise of a tyrant.

How did we get here.  It is very easy and we have ourselves, the people, to blame.  When a politician runs for office, he/she makes promises of "If elected, I will give you this..."  Then this politician has many ads and propaganda's running continuously until the people start believing they are entitled to this...  Then that politician is elected.  This has been going on for quite some time and it has been building.

At first, politicians got elected and didn't fulfill their promise.  The saw through this and started electing someone else. Then the politicians kept their promises and then they got to stay in office.  Others followed until there are so many programs to give the people something that costs more than what the country is taking in as taxes, fees or inflationary margins.

Now, we have over 50% of the Americans with some form of entitlement and it will continue to grow.  Eventually, they will be less and less producers, more government workers and many people out of work and sitting on their butts collecting money (Promises).

Now, we have a president who knows this and will continue to instigate more people to be dependent on government.  Once the majority of the masses are so dependent on government, freedom will be lost and the masses can be controlled by one entitle or worst one person, the tyrant.  Right now, Obama can only serve two terms, but as you have seen all the executive power moves he has done the last few months, don't be surprise he over rules this as well and keeps in office for the good of the people.

We all need to stop being selfish and wake up.  If he wins and so far he is leading in the key states, we will be heading down the road for good and there will be no turning back.  Many will be happy, because they like government telling them what they can or can't do.  I am not one of them.  I like my freedom of choice and I will fight this through education.  All I ask is pay attention to the entitlement programs and see where it is taking us.  More laws, more programs...less freedoms.
