  • Our rights are protected by, but not granted by the government
  • Citizens are the supreme inhabitants of this nation
  • Our government should operate within its means
  • All people are created equal
  • The Constitution of the United States is to be followed by and protected by our elected officials
  • All government workers serve the people
  • Wealth belongs to those who generate it
  • We are a constitutional representative republic

Who Does Wealth Belong To?

First, an admission that I came to the conclusion that the title of the current series should be “Ten Values We Can Agree On For America”. I had been saying “things” instead of “values” and I think Values is much more descriptive.

So, who does wealth belong to? My proposal is that it belongs to those who generate it. Whether it’s a five-figure income or a million-dollar inheritance, I think that it’s not up to the government to divide that money equally.

Let me know what you think.

We are A Nation of Laws, not Men…

It’s appalling how out of control the justice system seems these days. One of the things in my list of Ten Things We Can Agree on as Americans is what John Adams said about our fledling government, “We are a Government of Laws, not Men.” A truly free and prosperous country cannot have the disparity we see in our legal system and survive.
