Homesteading: Home Again, Home Again

*** begin quote ***

At one time, this country had a strong volunteer base to help those who needed help; the government has since replaced many of those efforts. Of course, we hope that as the government shrinks, our volunteer efforts must grow. We must grow a strong, giving populace and a strong economy – to help those who need help. Not because we must provide help when truly needed, but because we can and want to. Because we want to build our local communities up, as well as the people who live in them. We must rebuild our culture of giving… That is truly the American way.

But these efforts won’t develop overnight. It will take resources, organization, and time to build such a culture again. So we have a problem in the United States today; there are people who need our help now.

*** end quote ***

I see many “social clubs” languishing and eventually dying out.  The Italian American club in North Brunswick recently sold out.  My American Legion post has all aging members and very little “new blood”.  Same for the local VFW.  Last gasps?

As the Gooferment devalues our money stealing our wealth and increases the welfare roles, it shoves the local Churches and Civic organizations into oblivion. So, in short, welfare is nothing more than redistribution of wealth, or theft. Those in legitimate need could have their needs better met by private companies or charities without government involvement, and without forcing others to pay for it.

I’ve read many stories of American in the past where charity was very local and very selective.  It also rebuilt the civic society by stressing individual responsibility and a “helping hand” bu t not a “handout”.

I remember the Black Churches on the 50’s and 60’s where families worshiped together and stood proud in their communities.  They may have been poor in material wealth but were “rich” in their community.

The Gooferment destroyed all of that.

The “plantation of slaves” was rebuilt by Gooferment handouts.

So sad.

Not sure if it can ever be reversed.

I remember Samuel Jackson as Zeus in the movie “Die Hard”.

 

Zeus: *So who’s gonna help you*?
Dexter: We’re gonna help ourselves.
Zeus: And who do we not want to help us?
Dexter, Raymond: White people.
Zeus: That’s right. Now get on outta here. Go to school.

 

Sounds like the absolute truth!
