America, an immigrant nation!
So many Tonys, a quick and jolly immigrant story.
The small boy, after stepping off the boat at Ellis Island ends up standing in front of a table that has a big man behind it.
The man asks the boy, who cannot speak English, “What is your name?”
The boy not understanding what the man is saying points to a sign hanging over a doorway that says ‘To NY’.
The man looks and says Tony, OK Tony move along.
Maybe that’s how there became so many Tonys in the early 1900’s.
The Power of Virtue
While so many love to spend their time traveling around the world seeking whatever. I spent several decades traveling around the USA to find out who we are.
My viewpoint is not one of third party indoctrination but as someone that actually went there, met them, worked with them, rejoiced with them and suffered with them.
As we watch the clever manipulations of much of our media. What we are missing by focusing on Newstainment (News Entertainment) are the real issues that face our nation.
The one nation under God that so many seem to think they can fleece. And it’s not the immigrants per se that fleece our nation. It’s usually incompetent people that want something for nothing, dishonest people that cannot conceive so they cannot achieve. They seem to have no brotherhood in their being at all.
It is obvious that there is a very high level attempted debasement of the society of the USA.
Breaking our judicial system and economic system so that we are focused on the havoc that they created while they continue to exploit our people.
This attempted debasement has been going on for quite some time.
Yet the selfish monsters that create all these problems still can’t figure out why we as the people of the United States keep on keeping on.
Is it resiliency? Is it our immigrant past having fled unfairness, unhappiness, slavery or injustice?
Whether it were those that sold themselves into servitude for a free(sic) boat ride to the New World or those that were sold by their then chieftains into bondage?
One perspective is that we have come full circle and again justice is a primary concern and issue.
We have been pillaged yet we keep on. Why is that?
What is the trait that the people of the USA have that keeps us dodging the fascist jack boot that wants to beat us down and take our dignity. A movement toward even changing the human existence into some kind of Artificial Intelligent beast.
I am pretty sure it is virtue my friends, because at the core of our society is a deep desire to conduct ourselves to a set moral and ethical principles that we stand by as the reason for even the American Revolution.
A deep desire to control our own futures instead of having it dictated to us by self made delusional human Gods.
To offer all an opportunity for advancement of our personal lives and an open and free economic environment that facilitates any that want to raise their stature.
That freedom allows us all the opportunity to not only conceive but to achieve.
We will keep our virtue and our nation!
God Bless, Be Peace and Be Well
