A Time to CHANGE

President Obama spoke about change all during the campaign. And so far the changes he has implemented have made many people cry rather than rejoice. Of course, having gone through many very sad and difficult experiences, President Obama made some tough decisions based on his personal experience. Those changes do benefit many of the poor and suffering and that is good. But someone has to carry the financial burden of helping the poor.

Jesus said the "poor you will have with you always." In the Bible, caring for the poor was the mission of the church, humanitarian organizations, families and neighbors. Today, that burden has been placed upon the shoulders of the government. The poor you will have with you always.

And having the poor means, the poor will beget the poor and eventually, the poor will many times outnumber the working and the tax paying middle class. When that happens, class warfare will begin. And the change that will take place is something you don't want to know about.

Remember the French Revolution, the American Revolution and revolutions in practically every country where the people began to feel disenfranchized.

Today, it should be the obligation of those in authority to balance the scales between all sectors of the community keeping in the mind that whoever is in the majority will impact the rest. If the majority are people of value and ethics they will impose those values and ethics upon the people. If the people in majority are self centered and ego centric thinking mainly about their own particular ethnic or social group, the rest will suffer.

The change we really need today - is not a change that increases our dependency upon the government and thereby increases the government's dependency upon personal and corporate income taxes. The change we really need is the ability of American ingenuity to be supported and expanded.

How sad it is that many of our finest inventions go unnoticed due to the lack of funding or the lack of government support due to the many in power who are trying to keep the status quo as far as their established corporate clients are concerned.

In America today, we have been blessed with men and women who when given opportunities can make a huge difference in the way the world conducts business, brings innovation to the fore front and also making lives better and the way we do things optimal.

One major invention is the Magnetrain. http://www.magnetrain.com

The only thing that will bring America out of its financial mess is new technology that is not only feasible and doable but is exportable internationally. Selling this system to China will immediately return billions of dollars back to the US to help reduce the debt. Selling this system to Europe, Africa and the Middle East will IMMEDIATELY give Americans increases job opportunity.

A new high speed transportation system may have as many as 1000 parts and systems attached to it all small companies all employing Americans - 10-1000 to 100,000 people.

It's elementary Watson!
