A Bleak Future

What would you do tomorrow, if all your freedoms were done? No more free speech, no more we the people and no more guns. How about the pursuit of happiness or basic human rights? What if it all were gone with no place to sleep tomorrow night? Imagine no more growth, no way to protect your kids. Having to watch what you say and everything you did. Nothing to look forward to, no meeting friends down at the bar. Our way of life just gone, no more new trucks or fancy cars. How about struggling every day, trying to find enough food to eat? Trying simply to survive and not dying in the street. How about loosing faith in God and all of man? Just think about that a moment, I wonder if you can? Now ask yourself one question, would this make you a little sad? Is your life here in this country really all that bad? It’s time to get back up and wipe the sleep out of our eyes. Open your mind up to the truth and stop believing every lie.
