How many persons you know, who have started out from poverty and are now in possession, through hard and dedicated work, of at least one home, car, pension, funds for their children’s education etc., would be willing to give all of that up in the interest of supporting socialism/communism in their country? I would venture to say the above described person would mainly describe members of the middle and upper class members of society.
So many people these days are yielding to this philosophy, because they think it means ‘equality’. These words are so loosely thrown around by politicians and media houses on an agenda but people are not stopping to think what the definitions are. I now understand why policies for educating our children are positioned to make literacy and numeracy things that are elusive to the next generation. If they can’t comprehend words, they will not understand anything the politicians and self-elect elites are proposing and therefore they can be easily controlled.
Let’s look at a slogan such as “own nothing and be happy.” How can that be attractive to any human being? What about the question: “Who will own it instead?” People must be perceptive enough to know that socialism/communism/marxism are all policies where wealth is generated but only the top rulers will own it. The bottom, which is the majority, even if you were promised “abundance” if you vote for them, will have nothing and will have to be dependent on the moods and wills of those you have given ownership to. Make no mistake about it! You will work and work very, very hard, but unlike a free, “wealth driven” system of economy, the hard work produces wealth for the already rich “slave” owners who run the nation. The choice of food will not be yours, neither will the choice of what to wear, just as examples.
Many will complain that the rich always gets richer and the poor, poorer and this argument, albeit false in a free economy, propels the choice for socialism/communism/marxism. This is the evidence of what God says in the Bible – “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.” Under any system, the rich will get richer if they continuously apply their wealth-gaining strategy throughout; the poor will always be poor if they continue with the mentality that had them poor in the first place. However, in the free economy, wealth generation in its honest form, is not at the expense of another person. In the latter systems, there is no possibility of the poor changing their situation and ever getting richer , because their labour and wealth generation strategy is purely to satisfy the already rich, slave masters.
Many of these people came out of race-driven slavery, and now free, seem compelled to follow a group of people right back into it, only this time, it is their choice. They think it is equality, but it is far from that. These systems provide no opportunity for their children except to be dependent on government to look after their existence. Does this really work for the current middle class person to tell their children that it is ok to labour but not fulfill any of the dreams they have? How would this motivate them to do well in school, go to college, be ‘somebody’ as people like to say? What would be the point? The example you tried to set, would be in vain. Your wealth will not even be theirs when you have left this earth. Your children will own nothing, whilst you worked hard to own something, only for those who already own everything to have it and treat your children as slaves? Is this wise? Is this sound thinking?
Many Caribbean persons went to North America to build wealth of some kind so they could give their children a good start. Having accomplished this, many are so hateful of the country that afforded them this, although they will tell you that God opened the door for them. If God sent you, why would you hate what God has sent you to? There is a level of success attained that would not have been so had they remained in the Caribbean and now that they have some wealth, they have become so antagonistic towards the country, they are voting for its demise. They are voting socialism/communism/marxism. They are voting systems that will destroy the country and its ability to provide opportunities for all persons to have access to wealth, including their own children. They have sold out their children’s future to one which will make slaves out of them. Yes, many are repatriating, but what about the children who are now citizens of that country? What if they want the same opportunity you had to be a basketball star or renowned brain surgeon etc. with cars of his/her choice and ability to travel the countries you took him/her as a child?
When you as the adult make the choice to support a system that robs your child of that opportunity because you have neglected to get knowledge, you sell your family lineage to slavery and that is selfish.
Choose wisely! Choose Godly! Do not choose party or colour.
