A review of history reflects that with the rise of career politicians in democratic nations there has come higher and higher taxation as government has expanded and political power has become concentrated into the hands of elites. Free market principals which permitted average citizens to advance their economic conditions, has given way to ever increasing government control and more taxes to pay for the increasing social programs and government departments to run them. The citizens have grown more and more dependent on the government to provide for them rather than taking personal responsibility for themselves and depending only on God to assist them and their families. Little by little laws have been passed to take more and more of our peoples freedoms, financial resources, and Independence until personal intuitive has been muted. The final piece of the puzzle to insure there would be no turning back was the institution of national health care. This locked the people in to total dependence on the government from birth to the grave and allowed the elite to control who gets what level of care, playing "god". Taxation now secure and the progressives in firm control of not only government but also of our people themselves. Few noticed and even fewer cared. Today once great nations are decaying from within suffering from spiritual apathy, moral relativism, high rates of unemployment, excessive taxation and thanks to the socialist programs,(other than for the connected social elites) only one step ahead of mutually shared poverty.
In spite of this democratic nations have increasingly elected leaders who are intent on following the socialist model. People have discovered that they can vote in those who will take from the "rich" and use the taxes (legally stolen money) to benefit them or their families. With each new social program or government funded project, comes not only an increased tax burden, but staggering national debt. Too many are blinded to the fact that debt is simply the mortgaging of the future(including children & grandchildren) for immediate gratification. The cost of each spent borrowed dollar is another freedom lost, as with all debt there comes the enviable day it must be repaid. When the default comes there is no filing for bankruptcy court protection only the prospect of runaway inflation, and anarchy with the collapse of world economy. We have traveled far down the road of no return, the progressives knew they needed but one more thing to insure no return and that was for the USA to pass National Health Care. Once that happened America would become as weak and ineffective as the nations of Europe (this has been passed in the USA and there is small window of time before it is locked into place). Social medicine, high unemployment will lock once independent citizens into complete dependence on the government from the cradle to the grave. "Freedom" will be controlled by the social elites who believe they are much smarter than the normal citizens who they think are just one step ahead of monkeys anyway. The Bible instructs us to pray for those in authority and in the nations who have elected leaders there is no one to blame but ourselves, not only have we not prayed but we actually voted in those who are enslaving us. May God grant us sight and the good sense to repent and pray for God to open the hearts of the people that they might seek His help before it is to late.
