Do You Wish For America To Fail?

I would make it socially acceptable to take one's own life, and invent machines to make it convenient;

I would cheapen human life as much as possible so that life of animals are valued more than human beings;

I would take God out of the schools, where even the mention of His name was grounds for a lawsuit;

I would come up with drugs that sedate the mind and target the young, and I would get sports heroes to advertise them;

I would get control of the media, so that every night I could pollute the minds of every family member for my agenda;

I would attack then family, the backbone of any nation. I would
make divorce acceptable and easy, even fashionable. If the family
crumbles, so does the nation;

I would compel people to express their most depraved fantasies on canvas and movies screens, and I would call it art;

I would convince the world that people are born homosexuals, and that their lifestyles should be accepted and marveled;

I would convince the people that right and wrong are determined
by a few who call themselves authorities and refer to their agendas as
politically correct;

I would persuade people that the church is irrelevant and out of date, the Bible is for the naive;

I would dull the minds of Christians, and make them
believe that prayer is not important, and that faithfulness and
obedience are optional;

I GUESS I WOULD LEAVE THINGS PRETTY MUCH THE WAY THEY ARE!

So how does this approach to understanding give us insights on how
American life has changed under a Barack Obama presidency and have us
understand the power of progressive thought as it is applied to our
every day lives?

If I wanted America to fail (video)
By Ryan Houck

If I wanted America to fail …

To follow, not lead; to suffer, not prosper; to despair, not dream — I’d start with energy.

I’d cut off America’s supply of cheap, abundant energy. Of
course, I couldn’t take it by force. So, I’d make Americans feel guilty
for using the energy that heats their homes, fuels their cars, runs
their businesses, and powers their economy.

I’d make cheap energy expensive, so that expensive energy would seem cheap.

I would empower unelected bureaucrats to all-but-outlaw America’s
most abundant sources of energy. And after banning its use in America,
I’d make it illegal for American companies to ship it overseas.

If I wanted America to fail …

I’d use our schools to teach one generation of Americans that our
factories and our cars will cause a new Ice Age, and I’d muster a
straight face so I could teach the next generation that they’re causing
Global Warming.

And when it’s cold out, I’d call it Climate Change instead.

I’d imply that America’s cities and factories could run on wind
power and wishes. I’d teach children how to ignore the hypocrisy of
condemning logging, mining and farming — while having roofs over their
heads, heat in their homes and food on their tables.

I would never teach children that the free market is the only
force in human history to uplift the poor, establish the middle class
and create lasting prosperity. Instead, I’d demonize prosperity itself,
so that they will not miss what they will never have.

If I wanted America to fail …

I would create countless new regulations and seldom cancel old
ones. They would be so complicated that only bureaucrats, lawyers and
lobbyists could understand them. That way small businesses with big
ideas wouldn’t stand a chance — and I would never have to worry about
another Thomas Edison, Henry Ford or Steve Jobs.

I would ridicule as “Flat Earthers” those who urge us to lower
energy costs by increasing supply. And when the evangelists of
commonsense try to remind people about the law of supply and demand, I’d
enlist a sympathetic media to drown them out.

If I wanted America to fail …

I would empower unaccountable bureaucracies seated in a distant
capitol to bully Americans out of their dreams and their property
rights. I’d send federal agents to raid guitar factories for using the
wrong kind of wood; I’d force homeowners to tear down the homes they
built on their own land.

I’d make it almost impossible for farmers to farm, miners to
mine, loggers to log, and builders to build. And because I don’t
believe in free markets, I’d invent false ones. I’d devise fictitious
products — like carbon credits — and trade them in imaginary markets.
I’d convince people that this would create jobs and be good for the
economy.

If I wanted America to fail …

For every concern, I’d invent a crisis; and for every crisis, I’d
invent the cause. Like shutting down entire industries and killing tens
of thousands of jobs in the name of saving spotted owls. When everyone
learned the stunning irony that the owls were victims of their larger
cousins — and not people — it would already be decades too late.

If I wanted America to fail …

I’d make it easier to stop commerce than start it — easier to
kill jobs than create them — more fashionable to resent success than to
seek it. When industries seek to create jobs, I’d file lawsuits to stop
them. And then I’d make taxpayers pay for my lawyers.

If I wanted America to fail …

I would transform the environmental agenda from a document of
conservation to an economic suicide pact. I would concede entire
industries to our economic rivals by imposing regulations that cost
trillions.

I would celebrate those who preach environmental austerity in
public while indulging a lavish lifestyle in private. I’d convince
Americans that Europe has it right, and America has it wrong.

If I wanted America to fail …

I would prey on the goodness and decency of ordinary Americans. I
would only need to convince them … that all of this is for the greater
good.

If I wanted America to fail, I suppose I wouldn’t change a thing.
