Thank you for your time and indulgence. I also thank Bob
Lonsberry for his valuable contribution to this writing.

We are being bombarded, by Barack Obama with the term "income
inequality." We will hear it more and more through the November 4th
elections. We also have heard from the leadership of the Democratic
party and Barack Obama that there are two Americas, those with high
income and those with low income. We heard it more than once in
Obama's State of The Union political speech last night.

I have concluded they are right, there are two Americas...The
American people who work and those who don't. The American people who
contribute and those who don't. It's not those who have and those who
have not. It's those who do and those who do not. Don't confuse, those
who "can not" with those who "do not." Some people meet their
responsibility and do their duty as American citizens. They obey the
law, support themselves, contribute to society, and others don't. That
is the divide, and there in lies the two Americas.

It's not about "income inequality." It's about individual and
civic irresponsibility. It's about the leadership of the Democrat
Political Party and it's preaching of hatred and victimization in
order to win elections. It's about a political party that loves power
more than it loves our country and it's Constitution. What I have said
here is not intended to be mean spirited, nor is it verbal abuse. It
is simply the truth, and Mr. Lonsberry, as do I, believe its time
someone says it.

"The politics of envy was on stark and proud display a couple
of weeks ago when president Obama pledged the rest of his term to
fighting "income inequality." He stated that "some people make more
than other people, that some people have higher incomes than others,
and that's not just." Ladies and gentlemen, I submit for your honest
consideration, Barack Obama in stating such beliefs, is preaching the
rational of thievery, the other guy has it, you want it, take it. Or
better yet, vote Democrat and Obama will take it for you. That is
precisely the same rationale that produced the destruction of Detroit.
It is the same rationale that is dividing America into two groups and
destroying her.

It produces a "fundamental change." (Remember that promise?).
It is a deviation from American values and common sense because, in
the end, it does not benefit the people who support it, but betrays
them. How does it betray them? President Obama and the Democrat
leaders, by doing this, do not empower their followers, they enslave
them in a culture of dependence and entitlement, of victim-hood and
anger instead of ability and hope.

I quote, "The president's premise, that you reduce "income
inequality" by debasing the successful, seeks to deny the successful
the consequences of their choices and spare the unsuccessful the
consequences of their choices. Because, by and large, income variation
in our society is a result of different choices leading to different
consequences, or outcomes. Those who choose wisely and responsibly
have a far greater likelihood of success, while those who choose
foolishly and irresponsibly have a far greater likelihood of failure."
Success and failure usually manifest themselves in the levels of
personal and family income.

Different choices produce different outcomes. One man chooses
to become a doctor and devotes his young adulthood in college and
training and another chooses not to go to college and instead goes to
work in a grocery store. Their will be a significant "income
inequality" between the two. They both made a choice and those choices
led to lives with an inequality of income, but their lives also had an
inequality of effort put forth to produce that income. Every person
reading this knows someone who makes more money than they do. Does
that mean he or she cheated and Barack Obama needs to take away his
wealth and give it to you?

It is not inequality Obama intends to take away. It is freedom.
The freedom to succeed, and the freedom to fail. The pursuit of
happiness means much less when you face punishment from the government
if your pursuit of, and finding, that happiness brings you more
happiness than the other guy. Even if the other guy sat on his rear
and did nothing. Even if the other guy made a lifetime of poor and
shortsighted decisions. Barack Obama and the Socialist Democrats
preach equality of income as a right, while completely ignoring the
inequality of effort that produced that income.

In his speech, he said "Upward mobility in America has stopped.
"If Barack Obama gets his way, entitlement will replace effort as the
key to upward mobility in American society. He and his party speak of
two Americas, and their grip on power is based upon using the votes of
one to sap the productivity of the other. America is not divided by
the differences in our incomes. It is divided in our efforts to
produce those incomes. It is a false philosophy to say one man's
success comes about unavoidably as the result of another man's
victimization.

As Mr. Lonsberry states,"The simple Law of the Harvest...as ye
sow, so shall ye reap...is sometimes applied as, "The harder you work,
the more you get." Barack Obama intends to make that a "fundamental
change," to say The harder you work, the less you get. The less you
work, the more you get. Those who achieve are to be punished as
enemies of society and those who fail are to be rewarded as wards of
society.

What Obama offered in his State of The Union speech was not a
solution, but separatism. He fomented division and strife, pitted one
set of Americans against another for his own political benefit. That's
what Socialists do. It is Marxist class warfare wrapped neatly and
tied with a bow. Two Americas...let us be reminded of the words of
another president trying to unite America...."A house divided against
itself cannot stand, Abraham Lincoln.

Please forward to all you wish by any means you wish. My information
may be left in tact. I am unafraid.

May God bless America.
Until next time.
