R.I.P. Journalism is Dead
R.I.P. Here lies American journalism, who died of what was believed a lingering illness over the last several years. It has been found however, that the true cause of death in this tragedy was the result of intentional, self inflicted poisoning. It seems that journalists en masse have blinded themselves to obvious truth by their pride and arrogance and as a result have poisoned themselves and the American public. Driven by a ideological lust for liberal socialism and a promised Utopia, they have marched pathetically onward to their demise.
Journalists are supposed to be objective, not leaning to the left or the right, they are supposed to report the truth without their opinions. The truth is, in the last two years, the American journalists have been so enfatuated with Obama, it makes me sick.
What the American journalists have failed to recognize, is that wherever socialism has been attempted, it has succeded only in bringing misery, pain and suffering. The problem with the "educated liberal elite" is that they can't believe that their intellectual ideals could possibly be in error, they just haven't done enough of it.
History has proven over and over again that socialism just doesn't work, no matter where it's tried or who has tried it. A cursory look at humanity will quickly reveal that all people are gifted with talents, skills and abilities unique to themselves and of value to others. On the most basic levels, when someone has need of my skills, I can either trade my skills to someone for the use of one of their skills or if I have no need of their particular skill, they can pay me with a monetary equivalent for the value of my service. This is free market capitalism in it's most basic form. Multiplied by millions of people, each with unique talents, skills and abilities, all given a chance to realize their full potential, this is the true essence of America. What is so hard to understand about this. In Acts 26:24 Festus (procurator of Judea) tells the Apostle Paul "much learning doth make thee mad". In the case of the "intellectual liberal elites", I truly believe that much time and learning in our educational system truly has made them mad, or at the very least stupid.
I'm not the brightest bulb on the tree, but these things don't seem all that hard to understand to me.
I don't buy the idea that if I work hard and do my "patriotic duty" by paying taxes that someone else should be able to sit on their fat duff and enjoy the fruit of my labor without paying for it or at the very least working for it. The Bible says that if you don't work, you don't eat. That is personal responsibility on the most basic of levels. Personal responsibility is a dying art in our age.
I don't buy socialism, shoddy journalism, or the blatant lies fed to me by the liberal media. Dig deep, seek the truth and buy no lie.
God bless
