10
Things that Destroy a Nation
Can
bad leadership destroy a nation? You bet it can. Remember the grand vision of
uniting our nation? Was it poorly implemented or there was another vision implemented?
When the wrong ideology coupled with corruption is implemented the greatness of
any nation is eroded. Could the Great American Train be headed for a crash?
When financial, health, and wisdom are derailed a crash is eminent. All bad
leadership has to do is to execute well the following 10 things and we end up
with a nation in the brink of chaos. There is a severe drought of good leadership
in our land. We need new and strong leadership to bring an urgently needed paradigm
shift to avert the crash and become a third world nation as a consequence. When the same isn’t
working shouldn’t we let our voices be heard so we can change the course of
history?
1. Weaken the
nation financially. Accelerate the
level of national debt. With national now at $20,000,000,000,000 (that’s $20
trillion) our nation has severely been weakened. Promote the idea that debt is now
normal. Give it a fancy name. Call it quantitative easing so folks think it is
the right thing to do. Business debt sits at $20 trillion as well. Consumer
debt is at $20 trillion too. In a little over four decades the total debt
burden increased from $2 to $60 trillion. Do you think our borrowed standard of
living can continue forever?
2. Weaken the nation’s
education and healthiness. Centralize
education and healthcare. Dumb them down. The media controlled by government
becomes in charge of informing the masses. Break up the family structure and
accelerate the numbers of uneducated. What is our world ranking in education?
How about health?
3. Weaken the
nation militarily. Pull the support and
encouragement from those fighting for our freedoms and they will not only lose the
trust but also the respect for those in power. Can you remember when America
had the strongest military in the world (hint JFK and Reagan)?
4. Weaken the
nation spiritually. Remove God from
all public institutions and places and prohibit praying. Instill relativism,
liberalism, and devalue God’s laws. Do you long the time in history when we
were strong spiritually?
5. Weaken the
nation patriotically. Downplay
patriotism and instill fear. Divide the nation. Promote the racial divide and
don’t reward earned distinction. Do you still have that strong sense of pride
to be an American?
6. Weaken the
nation morally. Disregard the
sanctity of life from conception. Have government laws supersede God’s laws
that no longer foster ethics and morality. We could have an additional 50
million people if all those abortions had not been performed. Would we be now
fighting over immigration?
7. Weaken the
nation economically. Have a strong centralized banking system and foster
strong ties between government and big business. Create a financial matrix to
trap people so they don’t know how to escape. Don’t you feel that something is
wrong but you cannot quite pinpoint the real problem? There are couples today
holding five jobs between the two of them and still cannot make it. Could they
maybe have six or seven jobs?
8. Centralize
and increase big government. Instill
the belief that government has the solutions and will take care of the
population. Offer something for nothing. Entertain them to death (sports,
concerts, gambling, lotteries, and some dirty dancing too.). Value pleasures over responsibility. Can
you remember when it was honorable to accept the hard life early on so you
could have an easier life later on?
9. Promote
distrust in businesses. Keep
messaging that profit is a bad word. Increase regulations to discourage new and
existing small businesses. Do you know of any great nation without great
businesses?
10. Give
preference of one religion over another. Promote hatred among religions. Keep them distracted from the real
commonality among religions. Have we made any progress at all when it comes
to religious discrimination?
Thank
you for reading and reflecting on today’s nuggets.
Be blessed and be a
blessing to others
