So, what is it that many of you are being cheated out of ...???

No, it's not thousands of dollars of government money.

No, it's not that you may feel you are denied your preferred lifestyle.

No, it's not being cheated out of a job, or a job promotion.

No, it does not happen when you are buying a house or a car.


Hint: It's your future.

You may say that is not a hint ...that is an answer.  You are being cheated out of your future.

We can go in many directions with this also:

Is it the national debt, robbing our children of their future??

Is it increased government control and interference ...taking away our choices, and our freedoms??

Is it greedy corporations, and the 1% of the most wealthy ...making it nearly impossible for us to succeed??

Is it foreign competition ...whether jobs going overseas, or other countries buying up jobs here??

Is it increased division within our society ...contributing to protests, looting, crime, and violence??


Let's look a bit closer at those things previously listed.

Yes, the national debt is decreasing our marketability as a nation ...which will lessen our influence and competition on the world market.  And worse, we seem to be putting the looming problem onto our children ...who will likely have to deal with it.

Government control and influence can be at any level of government.
  • On the federal level, regulation within our country increases the advantage for foreign competition.
  • The strength of unions and increasing demands for better wages and benefits has also been a reason why corporations go overseas ...and we can call this corporate greed, union greed, or personal greed.
  • Monopolies had been a political issue during Teddy Roosevelt's presidential campaign at the beginning of the 1900's (the Trust Buster) ...yet, at the end of the same century we saw consolidations and mergers at record levels.
  • But the local governments often hurt us the most. Local companies set extremely high rates for utilities, and part of that is because the government regulates them so much ...but also though that becomes their reason for why they raise their rates, they hide their own share of the profit while pointing their finger at other entities.
And while the narrative is that government may be taking away freedoms and choices ...there has been a shift, allowing choices where previously they've been excluded & excluding freedoms that previously had been widely accepted.

There has been deliberate dissension promoted in areas where there has been much improvement.  I am convinced that if Obama had not received the nomination for the 2008 election, Hillary would now be our President.  So, how does anyone say we have growing racism in our country and a war on women??

In this century we've elected twice a black President, and are probably considering a woman for 2016 ...and no time before this has this been remotely possible.  So, those statements are disingenuous, inaccurate, and divisive.

If deception is the mantra that we aspire to ...then our truism is with the untrue.  And if that is the future we are handing our children ...it is horrific and unforgiving.

So, what does the future hold??

Is it defined by Global Warming ...that has now morphed into Climate Change??

Or is that part of the deception??

Perhaps we should instead fear Global Wetness.  

After all, Global Warming warns of melting moments ...and flooding.

And with floods, would they be gradual enough where we could react ...and perhaps relocate??  Wouldn't that help our economy, by creating a building boom??

Or would we fear the flooding would be too quick to react ...flooding us with fear, equipping us with false direction, and guaranteeing that we drown in deception???

Yes, I fear Global Wetness ...and to anyone who continues to follow the deliberate division and deception, I say, "You're all wet!!"

If you want to have a promising future and one for your children ...then accept Jesus, and don't neglect to tell your children about Him. 

Don't let them be cheated out of the greatest thing they can have ...the best eternal future, with Him.
