We, The People.....

Warning: This article contains strong political views of what our country has become, if you are a fan of American Politics and not of American values then read no further. Also know that I was singing the Shot Heard Round the World in my head as I wrote this, thank you School House Rock!



Throughout history man has been smart enough to see injustices and has spoken out about it. Throughout history, man ha aspited for a peaceful existence to live their life in a safe happy manner. Also throughout history there has been a group of people called leaders who when the rest of the people in a society got lazy gave obtained absolute power. Also when a man or a group of men had obtained the absolute power, the system that once worked became corrupt and was no longer safe or happy for the majority of the people.

This brings us to where the United States is right now. Our government founded by the people, for the people, has lost its main ingredient…. THE PEOPLE! The people have given absolute power to the political officials allowing them to make the decisions of everyone’s day to day life. It is not these elected officials’s fault that they have become corrupt or have assumed absolute power. We, the people, have begun to give them this power generations ago. Little bit by little bit, we have entrusted politicians to make decisions for us instead of making it clear which decisions we wanted made and how. Slowly we began to believe they were smarter than us, and were gave them more and more power, which began to make the people feel powerless.

Therefore, we, the people, have handed this elite group power over us and have relinquished our power over our lives and society. We no longer truly elect a president, your vote does not really count, because an “electoral college.” We no longer decide how we trade with in our country or with other countries, that is set up through trade organizations that follow the people’s in power agenda. We no longer chose what is best for our health, we allow an organization to tell us that the chemicals they put in our food is good for us, and that whole food is dangerous and could even be a drug. Our government (once for the people) now pays other countries to produce 98% of all the items we buy to include food, and has higher standards for goods produced in the United States. Our government fines the small business and charges the American entrepreneur discouraging them to be productive here. This government, that says it has our best interest at heart, is strangling the American producer with guidelines and taxes.

The other day, I watched a video where even the American Man’s rights were being violated and removed from them. A group of nonviolent protestors were being drug out of their crowd, being man handled by 3-5 cops per person, and arrested for wanting to share with the world that the country has forgotten about the People. At some point, the American people have become afraid of the police and the police have forgotten their oath, just as the politicians have forgotten their job to protect the constitution and people’s rights. My understanding of law officials’ job is to protect THE PEOPLE and serve THE PEOPLE. At some point, The People in these officials minds were only the elite population. This makes it completely understandable why THE PEOPLE are scared of them.

My fellow Americans, I am scared for my children and grandchildren with where our country has gone. The Constitution and Bill of Rights are no longer revered as law, but are looked at as a small piece of our history. We have forgotten what the ideals of the Constitution and Declaration of Independence mean, and have thus lost the foundation of our government. I have read and studied about revolutions, civil disobedience, and making change. IT never comes without a cost. Usually what starts as peaceful protests against the corrupted few, quickly turns into a bloody mess, killing and hurting innocent people who want what is best for themselves and their prosperity.

America, we are at the brink of another Revolution. Are we, the people, going to hide and pretend it is not happening? Are we going to blindly continue to follow the people we have allowed to be corrupt as they continue to try to micromanage our lives? or…. Are we going to take back what is ours that we have already lost so many men to uphold? Remember the words of the beginning of the Declaration of Indepence “When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve political bonds……” I ask this question to all of you, has the time come for us to start declaring our independence from this corrupt system and their policies that only look out for a few?

FDA= Trying to Kill America

Ok, I do not get into politics, I don't like it. All of them are greedy people trying to help out corporate America and making policies to increase ignorance and health issues. I don't like medicine, usually if you take one pill it will cause other ailments and require you to take more pills in which your life will be lived by visiting the pharmacy on a monthly basis. I also could careless about what mainstream society thinks.

To those of you who knew me when I was younger, you would know that this is a 180 in my life. I used to worry about what others thought. Well, that leads to depression and feeling no good enough.

Today, I am crossing a line and getting into "politics" This is my response to the FDA telling a nut company that their walnuts are an illegal drug that has not been approved by the FDA and not safe to have on shelves. See article http://thenewamerican.com/usnews/health-care/8294-walnuts-are-drugs-says-fda.

Dear FDA,
I once a naive child, thought that it was your job to protect us from poisons and keep our food and medicines safe for human consumption. I once believed that you had our best interest in heart, and wanted us to live healthy lives.

Well, dear sirs, I have grown up. I have raised a child with autism who is effected by the chemicals you declare as food. I have seen my parents and grandparents believe in the miracle drugs their doctors supply, and suffer through the many side effects. I have seen myself and peers gain weight, although we are eating what you say is "healthy." I have read, researched and studied what is in my "food." I have heard the policies put in place to keep the small farmer who produces whole foods out of business so we can all eat your genetically modified science experiments. As Americans, we are the worlds leading country in obesity, autism, and many other ailments. We are no longer nurturing our body with whole foods, but filling our bodies with chemicals.

I ask you and all your wisdom, if Walnuts are the illegal drug today, does that mean that fresh fruits and vegetables are the illegal drug of tomorrow because they help with all kinds of preventatives as any whole food diet would. Would you rather me feed my child the food colored fake "fruits" of a fruit roll up than feed him an apple from a tree? Will having sex with my husband become illegal with out a prescription because it might get my heart rate up and help me maintain a healthy heart, not to mention provide a strong mental well being that will help me be able to avoid depression? Will having a gym membership also require a doctor's prescribed journey? You do know that regular exercise prevents heart disease, can help emotional well being as well as if applied correctly with that balanced diet I talked about before CURE obesity?

Sirs, I ask you. No demand you to stop using your wallets to make decisions about our nations health, before the following two generations are more screwed than the current adult generations, and start making your job what it was intended to be. Control the amount of chemicals in food and make whole foods the number one priority of food, with out the pesticides, gmos, preservatives, and food coloring. Make controlling drugs about optimizing life with less side effects. And allow people and doctors to consider natural remedies first. There have been studies in other countries about how a well balanced chemical free diet has decreased the symptoms of autism and ADHD. I realize that this may cost the country billions of dollars in money from the same people who are putting these chemicals in our bodies, but it will make for a healthier smarter nation. If you continue to choose to try to ban whole natural foods who have scientific evidence to help prevent many of the diseases you are trying to cure, than I will continue to eat them legally or illegally, I will continue to sleep with my husband and have a healthy marriage, I will continue to exercise. I will continue to get healthier, my children will grow up healthier than your grandchildren who you are forcing to have no choice. One day, your lack of wisdom will bite you in the rear, when America is a dying nation, and are unable to care for their elders because they are too sick to care for themselves.

Coming soon to a blog near you..... the government's involvement with TSA and forcing Americans to being forced to be exposed physically while also being exposed to Xray... which has also been proven to be harmful to people!
