A Soapbox Opinion

A Soapbox Opinion By Tom Wright 10-15-2019 America has lost, its moral compass. Hardly a day passes, without some sort of rumpus. Like some third world countries, we’re fast becoming. Many give no thought, to Christ’s second coming. Some able bodied won’t work, always seeking a handout. While millennials run up debt, expecting a tax payer bailout. Socialist’s have made, “tax the rich” their battle cry. But all of their promises, are just pie in the sky. In our lives, the government, makes too many interventions. The road to perdition, is paved with good intentions.
