I can see future generations cursing us one day because of how slow we reacted and therefore ended up doing very little to curb the effects that they will have to live with. I believe that they will have the right to curse us.

Saying that I believe that one of the major problems to overcome is that so many Americans are in denial because they have been told time and time again that Climate Change is not real. We need to put a big effort in education of people.

What are your thoughts concerning how this could effect
the blog community?

Wow, your comment was really insightful and I believe true.

I think many of us look around us and we see the destruction of our nation, which we love happening. We try to keep hope alive that we the people can change things still and that the children and youth can have a good future. We sign petitions, email and write our elected officials, we vote and support for third party candidates because we know in our hearts that both the Democrats and the Republicans are corrupted beyond repair and will never be part of the solution. Yet, many people feel discouraged like their efforts are a waste of time and are loosing hope that we can change it around. I agree with you that President Obama will continue to give his great speeches and lie to the American people who belived and voted for him. He will continue the same policy that George W. did and the real change that he campaigned on was nothing but an illusion like David Copperfield and other great magicians do in one of their magic shows.

I asked a question on another blog of what can we do as people on a grass roots level to save this nation from going off the cliff that it seems so determined to go off of? Do we vote them all out and vote in an all new Congress? Yet, I think it is the system itself that is corrupted and not so much the men and women, so what do we do? Could we even pass real election campaign reform that takes the money out of the political process? I don’t think so, I think it will be the same ole same ole of they might pass a Bill so they can look like they are working to change things, but the real substance of the Bill that is signed in to Law will only be to continue the corrupt system that we have had for years that is ruining this country. What do we do? I believe in encourging and inspiring others to keep fighting and not to loose hope because when one is fighting they must keep hope alive that they can win the war. Yet, what is something new that we can try in this fight to regain the soul of America?

I may not be explaining this very well, but I am really worried that we are close to reaching the point of no return and that no matter what we try and do to save this country it will be to little to late. The children and the youth are going to curse us because we have left them a toxic wasteland with very little chance to ever achieve the American dream. They will be the first generation who will do worst than their parents and will be sicker than their parents because of our lack of concern for the environment. We are blasting away their hertiage with Mountaintop Removal Mining. We have committed torture and other crimes around the world and those who commit those crimes are never arrested or tried for war crimes. They continue to get the green light to go ahead. We remain silent when we see other countries commit human rights violations because I think we commit our own so to speak up against them would be having to face our role of bringing despair to people around the world. We are leaving them a world that is going to be a living hell for them if we as a human wave of people do not start fighting against this evil corruption that has taken over our government.

We need to really start thinking about their future and what we are doing on our watch of Americans? Are we fighting to take this country back? Are we doing all we can to make sure that the American people understand that we are loosing the war for the America that was founded by our ancestors the Founding Fathers? Are we willing to pick up their torch and be brave enough to fight this war that needs to be fought? Or will we continue to make excuses why we can’t fight? Will we continue to turn the other way while our fellow Americans are suffering? Will we continue to say it doesn’t effect us because we don’t know anyone directly who is homeless, sick and poor? We are leaving the children and future generations with a debt that they will never be able to pay back. The dollar is getting weaker and we have gone from a nation who wasn’t in debt to one that is going bankrupt because we have no money and have to borrow large sums of money from nations who hate us. The person who barrows money is over time enslaved to the person who gave him the money. We are loosing our sovereign strengh as a nation and are becoming nothing but a empty shell of a nation.

So what do we as Americans do to win the fight for the future of the next generation that follows us? What can we do to defeat those who by their selfish greed allowed themselves to sell this nation down the river?

I will end with this quote:

“The oppressed want to be liberated not only from their hunger but also from their masters. They are well aware that they will be effectively freed of hunger only when they hold their masters, all their masters at bay.” -Albert Camus-
