We are about to enter the final phase of the 2024 election. Before we vote, we need foundational values and truths. My great friend Dean Kunicki sent these to me to share. Whether you are a Republican, Democrat or no Party, these are truths.
Share them with your friends, post on social media. The election is not about Republican vs. Democrat. It is about Freedom vs. totalitarian socialism. Do you want to have the opportunity to be successful in the future or do you want government to run your life?
Your future is in your hands. The choice is yours.

Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys. — P.J. O’Rourke, Civil Libertarian 8.

The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. 4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. 5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work, because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work, because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that is the beginning of the end of any nation! Can you think of a reason for not sharing this? Neither could I. |
The book “Personal Opinions of One Common Man” gives us up dated versions of what ails America. The book tells us “One of the biggest challenges America faces today is accepting the fact that circumstances have not changed. What has changed is the interpretation of these circumstances.” Great Truths and Five Best Sentences above would have fit perfectly in the book. The book is available online from Amazon, Barnes & Noble and Walmart.
