BIG BROTHER TAKES OVER: MY GOD, WHAT HAVE WE DONE?


Be careful of what you say or do. The government, "Big Brother," is watching.

Several months ago, I posted that the technology was in place and had been tested so that, when the orange light in your car's instrument cluster turns on, a message will be sent via satellite to the state where your car is registered, which in turn could cause the state to send you a ticket for failing to maintain your car's emission control system. Now, of course, the feds are taking over the auto manufacturing industry which puts them in the potential position of being able to get you ticketed, ticketed, and ticketed until you buy one of their smaller, more fuel efficient cars.

Now comes the fat monitor. The device has been invented that will fit around your belly and keep track of what you eat. If you eat unhealthy, it will notify a computer data base someplace. Theoretically, then, someone from the Department of Health and Human Services could fine you. After all, as I heard it argued by some faceless far-left liberal, if the government is going to pay for your health care, it has every right to control how much you eat and how you exercise.

When you turn on the television and you watch the situation in Iran and you hear that the Ayatollah has decreed that the street protests ARE going to stop or else, ask yourself how you will feel when, in a few years, we get the same message from those in power in Washington. The fact is, we are already edging dangerously close to living in fascism.

What needs to happen is that the nation's populace needs to be educated. No one is taking it upon themselves to educate the nation about the real history of this country or about the vigilance that we must maintain to protect our liberty and freedoms. That needs to happen, and it needs to begin without delay. As it is, it's a shouting match between the left and the right, and since the left controls the schools, universities and media, they are able to snuff out the truth.

That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
