Why I am worried?

Why I am worried?

       Because so many things, foreign and domestic, appear to be spiraling out of control

As I tell one of my quasi-liberal friends, around age 27, my priorities have changed. Now all I want to be able to do is make some electricity, and grow some food. That's it. That's a practical result of what I do and plan for when I get extra worried.

And boy am I worried enough to actually work on implementing  all my priorities as best I can.  Thank goodness I have the time and money and land to help me along.  At least I hope I have time.

Back to the subject of being worried. Mostly I am much more worried than normal because I can perceive bad things happening to me, my Family, and my friends. That's it.

Here's some examples of why I am worried more than the usual.

Our Federal President Obama comes across as "out of touch with reality", maybe even being dumb and poorly educated, though he did have a bunch of good opportunities in his past.  This implies he may, in fact be a disinterested leader, and other shadow governments and speech writers are now ruling the USA using him and his national political party as a fig leaf. I don't know for sure, but  I also know I worry mostly for my Family.

We have elected officials who actually vote on bills without having read them and understanding them. But somebody is still writing them. We even had a Speaker of the House who said to do this. Now that is an absurd idea, and worries me

Lying to rule and using propaganda to rule, is just both immoral and an ineffective way to rule for more than a few months.

Houses of cards, buildings constructed on sand, and communes, all eventually fail, like 100%. It is when me, my Family, and my friends get drug into these failures that I worry. So here we go again with the latest bunch  who believe they have finally broken the code, so to speak.

Dumbing down our populations is now having profound negative impacts most people don't like in the effects it has on them, and now their children. Education, vice indoctrination, is a profound way for we humans to progress, assuming we even still want to.

The USA is unilaterally disarming without any real discussion or public debate. That the all volunteer military is being ended (death by a thousand slices is the method) without any public discussion is simply astounding to me. The consequences of all this is pretty profound to a lot of people, too. Only time will tell, for sure.

Now I don't expect all our leaders to be experts on everything. That is not reasonable to me. But I do expect them to be honest and straight forward (about their strengths and weaknesses) to those who elected them, and to be acquiescent to the hard decisions that are always required to be made. I worry that won't happen, at least in any kind of timely manner. Now it seems I will have to suffer just for this to even happen. Even if a candidate is savvy about his honesty, and his opponent exploits even that, then that in itself is a cause for extra worry.

I perceive a police state of sorts is emerging in the USA that is coming under the control of some kind of shadow governments that vary all over the place. Said another way the function of the various governments (like local, state, and federal) seems to be gravitating towards treating the common people as servants to work and pay taxes, vice being the citizens who elect them in the first place.

It seems a form of McCarthyism of the left is coming back all over.

The media can no longer be counted to report the news to many people used to learning their news through the traditional news medias.  Has this gone on in the past, probably. Is it worse now, I would say most definitely yes.

I worry about  the probably of a foreign war, and the typical reactions of those presently in political power throughout the world.  Good leaders would already be acting to prevent the circumstances that might prompt such a foreign war, usually started by crazy people, or those reacting to them. Now I believe this kind of situation often exists, but these days  it comes across as more intense and amateurish than "historically usual".

And I worry our National Defense is already suffering, too. That's pretty basic; and our Federal President even took an oath during his two inaugurations to profess so, also.

Last, the end of the liberal/progressive era is having  more profound negative impacts on me, my Family, and my friends than I had planned for. Now I know dinosaurs don't go down easily  (like their status quo will go on forever), but the possibility that the those who believe in their cause might take a lot of us down with them truly disturbs and worries me.

One worry is about how many will now have to die earlier and more miserably than they planned on. The possibilities continue to grow in my mind.

So maybe like chicken little who alarmed so many when he declared the sky is falling, that much applies to this common citizen, too.  But then, maybe there are underlying reasons to be worried.  As for me, I am worried.  I suspect I am more than a worry wort who is just over reacting.  So back to the basics to act, like checking on my making some electricity past initiatives and work; both today and tomorrow, weather permitting. Mostly I need to change out some bearing on my micro turbo plant. And it is too cold to grow some food right now.
