First, the government declared war on Indians. After the last Indian forces were defeated, the war continued. Indians were rounded up and put on reservations. Their affairs were tightly regulated and controlled by government agencies. Many Indians became alcoholics. Their families and cultures were destroyed.
Then, the government declared war on Negroes. They were moved into large cities. Many were put in public housing. Negro families were attacked by programs that paid women without husbands to have illegitimate children. Soon, most Negro children were fatherless. Their families were destroyed. Powerful forces encouraged addiction to illegal drugs. Now, many Negroes spend much of their lives in jail for drug-related crimes.
After the war against Negroes began, the government declared war on Caucasians. Their schools were destroyed, often by the same public housing that was destroying Black families. “We get ’em all!” government exulted at the success of their two-pronged attack. Soon, white literacy and math skills were reduced. Pride in Caucasian accomplishments was erased. More and more White children came to be aborted, illegitimate, and drug addicted. White people’s jobs were exported to foreign nations. Floods of immigrants forced more White people into low end jobs or unemployment. The haters were happy!
Who would be happy, pushing programs that are sure to fail? Some in government are equal-opportunity warmongers. Every Imaginary Problem they embrace is more important than the ease and prosperity of their neighbors.
What should we do? The Fulfillment of the prophets provided this advice: “Turn the other cheek.” “Do good to those who hurt you.”
From that point of view, we understand that people who hate their neighbors are drawn to government. Meddling busy-bodies, manic regulators, and tax addicts often outnumber and outrank the good and decent public servants who love their neighbors.
We live with the pain caused by the bitter fruits forced upon us by the haters in government. We struggle with excessive rules, harassment, hurtful taxes, damaging programs, jail, and death. Every day, innocent bystanders in the “War on Drugs” are killed, along with countless unborn children and broken-hearted parents and grandparents, destroyed by the needless deaths around them.
It’s hard to pray for those who attack us. What else can we do?
