America is great because of God and the free enterprise system our founding fathers created. There is no comparable communist or socialistic country anywhere in the world. I am aware there are problems in our economy. But dependence on the government or socialism is not the answer. They are the cause.
Socialism allows for laziness and economic complacency as evidenced by the collapse of communism.
That is why we must stop the infiltration of socialism into our government and return to the hard-working values that made this country great. I do not want to forget the poor. I want to help them by giving them a chance to work hard and strive for the American Dream. Socialism, communism or welfare by whatever name it is called keeps the people poor. Mr. Rothem pointed out that the communists are starving.
