The Guilty Go Free, While Others Suffer
Being an average U.S. citizen, I cannot help but wonder where “the rest of us” stand in this muddle we now call the U.S. government. When the likes of Lois Lerner and Hillary Clinton commit several crimes against the government (that would be against us, the citizens) and one guy who told one lie (former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn) is fed to the lions, we can only wonder if the government has any remaining scruples. The crimes committed and federal statutes violated by Hillary Clinton have been very well documented and enumerated by several sources in articles in papers and magazines. So why is she still out and about and making money, which in part really comes from her transgressions?
I ask this question as we read about censorship and government control in other countries. China has an ironclad lock on its citizens, as do many other countries. We would like to imagine that we are a “free” country and immune from such government control, but are we really? The scandal that the Mueller investigation has become clearly shows the amount of political prejudice that goes into many of our government’s legal actions.
The misuse and abuse of civil asset forfeiture is another area that highlights the dictatorship-like qualities that have befallen our government. I hope the rest of you are also concerned about these issues. Only by electing leaders who are free of these prejudices can we free ourselves from continuing the march toward a constitutional dictatorship. We only have to find these people and get them to run for office.
