Charles Lindberg once said: "A life without risk is not worth living". Do we wish that the first ships from England had not risked the trip to America? Or that the first settlers had not risked their lives to create the first colonies in our country? Or that the colonists had not risked a war with England to create a free America? What about the risks of the Civil War to eliminate the scourge of slavery that threw our country into chaos; and cost the lives of thousands of Americans. Do we wish the first Apollo astronauts had never risked their lives in space or that we had never risked walking on the moon? Risk is what this country is all about.It's what freedom is all about. This bailout may,in fact work.It may protect investors and the money of our citizens; but at what cost?There is no security in freedom.There are no guarantees. You can suceed or fail in a free market system ; but make no mistake about it;freedom and the free market is the only ; God given way to live. When you take it from man;he loses something in his spirit that cannot be replaced. Freedom must be constantly fought for and protected by vigilant Americans because there will always be those who will offer the temptation of security in exchange for the political power that these individuals gain. Governor Sarah Palin said; "Never Again" in reference to the Wall Street debacle, during her debate with Joe Biden.She is correct. We |
