Battle For America’s Future
Making You Lie To Yourself Is The Point
Recently a federal judge asked a few inconvenient questions. She exploded the lies that sheltered a prominent politician’s drug-addled son and the politician from the consequences of decades of corruption. The American people now have a shred of a chance at some honesty and a full acccounting of how a penniless politician became a multimillionare with a real estate empire. But that probably will not happen. We will be lied to again. We will be told that this coverup of a cavalcade of corruption, drug abuse, prostitution, government censorship, sweetheart deals, and influence peddling to foreign governments is actually the heartwarming story of a loving father welcoming the prodigal son into the bosom of the family for redemption and renewal.
Nobody believes any of it. Not the lawyers mouthing the lies. Not the TV talking heads repeating the lies. Not the opinion makers justifying the lies. Everybody knows the politician’s brother is corrupt. And his sister. And his son. And the politician. And no one will say it. And the burden of cutting through the mountains of BS, the dozens of shell companies, the shady real estate deals, the hidden transfers of millions in cash… It’s all too hard to follow. The weather is hot. It is raining a lot. There is other stuff going on.
That is what they are counting on. You are too busy to care. You accept the lies because it is too hard to get to the truth. And what difference does it make anyway? If this corrupt politician gets booted, there’ll be another one, just as bad. It’s probably OK. It’s not that bad. The people complaining are just as bad themselves. It doesn’t really matter. All lies. And that is the point. When they can get you to lie to yourself, they have won. And they are pretty good at getting you to lie to yourself.
They are like pickpockets. The sneak thief does not simply put his hand in your pocket. The sneak has to distract and disorient you before they steal. Pickpockets create a scene, bump into you, have accomplices that focus your attention elsewhere. By the time the dust settles, you have been victimized and they have gotten away clean.
Sometimes, as a few days ago, somebody sees through the huffle-buffle. Refuses to let the hucksters win this time. A small victory. But better to light one candle than curse the darkness, right?
You do not have to lie to yourself. You do not have to accept as gospel truth what is obviously false. Each person who makes the commitment to honesty is a brick in the wall against chaos. Be a brick.
Bigger Than One Corrupt Politician’s Criminal Family
You are the backbone of America. This nation was not built by kings, queens, government programs, social activists, or loudmouth political operatives with axes to grind. Regular folks, everyday people, people like you stood on the shoulders of your spiritual and family ancestors and did your part. Why work so hard if not to provide a stepstool to the next generation. You want them to stand on your shoulders as you once stood on others’.
Middle-class American families receive as much through family gifts and inheritances as they save from their paychecks. According to the Federal Reserve. You can look it up. You worked and worked some more. You scrimped and saved. You and those who came before you furnished the foundation on which you stand and upon which your children will create the future. For over 200 years that is how it was.
A destructive trend began a few decades ago and continues to accelerate. Middle-class America is being cut out of the national conversation. Our prosperity and political life were once grounded in the values of hard- working, middle-class families. Who still believes that?
You don’t have to believe me! Trust the evidence of your own eyes. Ask yourself. Think about some of the big, important national issues driving insanely expensive, idiotic policies.
Which of these initiatives appeal to you? Any?
Did you applaud powerful new forms of cannabis that have turned your downtown into Zombieland? Have you seen the billboards reminding “parents” to keep the candy drugs away from the kids?
Are you happy that your President thinks of America as no more “exceptional” than any other country?
Does your patriotic pride mean kowtowing to foreign dictators?
Was it your idea to allow betting on college sports while the game was in progress?
Were you the one who made basic biology controversial?
When was the last big screen movie you saw that didn’t insult and assault you nonstop?
Whose agenda is this? Why do politicians and giant corporations grovel before the social justice warriors and their pernicious ideology?
What Happened? Why? Two Reasons
Political Power: Does anyone still believe that you can vote the bastards out? Anyone? ‘Nuff said.
Money Power: Whoever has the Gold makes the Rules!
Who has the gold? Not the middle-class, not anymore. Why not? You are working longer. Investments continue to increase. Trillions of dollars are saved in middle-class IRAs and 401(k) retirement plans. What happens to all this middle-class wealth? Try paying monthly charges at any long-term care facility. Multiple that number by the millions of Baby Boomers. There’s your answer.
Money spent on long-term care is money not spent shoring up American values. Is watching mom and dad go broke an incentive to save? Why bother paying off the family home or cottage when they’ll be seized anyway?
Destroy The Foundation, Destroy The Structure
Wealthy people need not worry about long-term care. Wealthy people fight to position their families in power. Oceans of cash carefully set aside to cushion their future generations. To insulate them from reality. To replace natural virtues with bizarre vices. Sad, but true. National values have been subverted to the values of trust fund babies. Lots of college degrees. Lots of narcissistic arrogance. Very little education. Very little humility.
Descendants of the great men and women who built automobile companies, movie studios, manufacturing industries, hospitality empires, restaurant chains, and a myriad of other enterprises, now control that wealth. Trust fund babies, and a few foreign currency speculators, dominate our national life. What would the Founders think of their progeny?
Money talks, BS walks. Simple as that.
Middle-class Americans transfer their family’s financial security (and that means their political clout) to these spoiled brats by failing to recognize the need for long-term care planning. Perpetuating real, traditional American values of generosity, thrift, self-sacrifice, community spirit, and family doesn’t take a lot of dollars. But these few dollars must be in the right hands and recognized as more than mere money, as an inheritance of values.
For more than 30 years I have helped thousands of families recognize that long-term care does not have to mean nursing home poverty. As a working, productive, taxpaying American, you have already paid for your long-term care, just has you paid for your Social Security and Medicare. Through years of taxes. You earned your social security pension, you earned your hospitalization health care, you earned your long-term care. You paid for each of these. But when you need long-term care, the government wants your lifesavings. And they will get your lifesavings. If you let them.
Should you throw the money away?
Should you pay for others without a care for your own?
Should you ensure your own care and your family’s future by planning?
Whether your family suffers from nursing home poverty is not up to chance. Whether you provide the next generation with broad shoulders to stand upon is a choice. Your choice.
