Diversity Makes Greatness
Thinking about America, it's a challenge to remain positive about our future. (But I do.)
Sadly, most Americans only care about what happens to themselves, and could hardly give two figs about what happens to the country. That part is perplexing. Don't these people have children and grandchildren? Or at least dream of having such? Don't they want their own descendants to have a good country to live in? They don't want to see it improved? That seems like the sentiment behind 'maga,' but the dedication to that is as shallow and ambiguous as the slogan itself. And so many Democrats only seem to be motivated by hatred of the right.
Where is the dedication to what IS right?
So many before us have given so much that we might enjoy this wonderful life. And how do we forward that effort? Most Americans blow it off. The collective selfishness in America is pathetic. It's all me, me, me, and I want it now, now, now.
Where are the people who value delayed gratification? Precious little of that sentiment is displayed here at JPP.
People have discounted the actual professional main stream media; and instead get their information basically from rumors on social media. The popular view these days is that institutions cannot be trusted to perform their task, and that rumors are to be more trusted. SMH!
What do we do to get people to believe in America?
Sure. Institutions have corruption. But it is not absolute. We can trust our institutions to be reliable in what they do. They have irreplaceable value. It is a huge mistake to simply shun the main stream media, or to think that government is 'the enemy.'
Our country has as much potential as any for greatness.
We have to work with what we have, make it better. It ain't perfect. There's lots to do. Don't just criticize and pooh pooh. Pick an area of interest, roll up the shirt sleeves and get to work!
