The Bottom Line on Our Economy

There is a thing called the 3rd generation paradigm in business and you have all seen it happen to successful businesses throughout time. The first generation builds the business through hard work and sacrifice, the second generation expands and improves the business, then the third generation milks the business into non existence. There are a lot of different variations on the theme but the bottom line is at some point most businesses are sold out, go into bankruptcy or are leveraged to become unrecognizable to what the founders had in mind when they started the business.

The same thing happens with government. Do you think your grand parents see our current Federal Government as the same one they had when they were growing up ? In the business paradigm there is always a generation that is aloof and could care less about the business - except the money and power which in turn leads to the eventual downfall of the business. FDR (Franklin Delano Roosevelt) was one of those and here we are 3 generations later with another one. This administration could care less about our founding principles, he has never fought for or sacrificed anything and certainly has no experience in the business of our government. The end result will be unrecognizable to what the founders had in mind and we the people will either be sold out to another form of government or have to pick up the pieces and shore up the foundation through sacrifice and hard work.
