As a former US Army Captain and Greet Beret (WIA Nam ’67) I understand National Security better than most. My “expert” opinion (I have multiple degrees and studied political Philosophy) is that that the biggest threat to our constitution and our way of life is the uncontrolled spying on American citizens which were authorized by the Patriot Act and wording added in the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). Edward Snowden was right in what he did to warn us and I consider him a Patriot for that act. What the NAS is doing is the biggest threat to our liberty that there is today not the ISIS or Ebola or a president that only play golf.

Benjamin Franklin is quoted as saying …

Those who would give up Essential Liberty
to purchase a little Temporary Safety,
deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.

They are teaching in all the schools (k-12 and college) that capitalism just transfers money from the poor to the rich, and that capitalism must be turned into socialism so that jobs can be created inset of making rick richer.

The destruction of the middle class is a part of this strategy and the progressive claim this is a result of big business and Republicans. The truth is it is a result of control control of the markets from those in power i.e. the progressives that are in both parties.

Since the progressives are boomers (not all but most) they are in all the positions of power by simple demographics. The boomers were born between 1944 and 1966 (my definition) which makes the oldest 70 and the youngest 48 which means they run the country and will for another ten years plus or minus!

Hillary, too, says: "you didn't build that!".
