The budget should be balanced
“The budget should be balanced. The treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.” Cicero – 55 B.C.

The Luxury To Complain
Voters who voted in the current administration lack the patience to really understand the building blocks that enable them to have the luxury to complain. Such Irony!In the video link preceding these words Charles Payne discusses the mass exodus of major companies from California. I can hear the cry of the liberals, "That greedy company abandoning our unions! Our prez will slow them down!"...more like hobble even more.
If you wait for the next clip, Cavuto let's the self made Home Depot creator, Bernie Marcus, compare the present times to the less hobbled period in which he grew his business. Later he discusses the Atlanta Aquarium that enabled him to give back to America...concepts rapidly moving towards obsolescence in our move towards entitlement. Note that the link may disappear over time and I'll do my best to make sure the target of the link stays set.

Restoring Honor
Leaders create controversy merely by their bold choicez. Give some of your time to listen to what Glenn says here. Pause it and pick it up later, if need be (that's what I did). Because of the politically charged period that exists today, there will be abundant nay sayers who belittle merely for effect. But if we all just take the time to do what we know to be the right things when presented with choicez, we can begin to once again charge into the future with enthusiasm rather than fear it.

The Ebb And Flow Of True Greatness
I procrastinate with struggling with issues of faith, so they're way back on a back burner, though I am moved by a beautiful choir that plucks the heartstrings of youthful memories of innocence where everything seemed possible and abundance was boundless.The controversial Glenn Beck reviewed a song sung during Reagan's funeral reading the words to remind us of values beyond ourselves.
