Land of the CowardsAfter having watched The Other Boelyn girl, it got me on the discussion of monarchries, and I decided that in someways, that was acutally a better of system of government than what we have now, becasue one of the things about it is that change came a lot quicker than it does now, and though the ruler would have more power, he would in someways be more beholden to the people was well, and though there was oppression, one of the things the Monarch feared the most was an uprising becasue no matter what, the massess always outnumbered the King, and so in some regaurds the king did have to be careful not to piss off the people too much, or they would revolt and unseat him from the throne.
And in this musing I came to another conclusion, and I was touched by a sudden dawn of enlightement of sorts, about the true philosophy of America, and what America was really founded on. It was not and is not in fact the Land of the Brave, as they will try to say, but rather it is the land of the lazy cowards.
If you think of it everyone whom came to this country did so, simply becasue they did not wish to deal with the problems of thier own conuntry, they were all just running away instead of trying to fix the problems in thier homeland, they just decdied, it would be easier just to pull out and find somewhere else to go instead of dealing with the issues at hand.
The founding fathers themselves came here, becasue they decdied you know what, we do not really like the way the king is running the country, so we are just going to flee away to find a new land. And sense every immigrant whom has come into this country has done so seeking a so called better land, instead of putting the time and effort into trying to make thier own countries that better land.
America is made up of all the rejects whom did not want to acutally have to make an effort to imporve thier own conditions but instead just run away with thier tails tucked between thier legs to hope to find a place that is already fixed for them.
Even today, that is what the current probelm with illigal immirgration boils down to. the Mexicans, say, hey are own country and governement sucks but instead of making the effort to make are country better lets just go over to this other country instead.
That is the porblem with people today, no one wants to make the effort and the sacrifice to acutally try and work and imporve things. Of course it is not easy to try and make change, and it could be putting ones own life at risk, but it is not impossible either, history as shown that, but no one wants to acutally be the one to make that sacrifice or take that time, to toil through the hardship. They all just want to sit on thier hands, complian and wait for someone else to come along and fix the problem for them. 8:53 PM - 3/16/2008 - post comment
