Land of the Free????

America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.

Abraham Lincoln

I believe that this country is bordering on self destruction. The population is becomming increasingly dependent on government. Businesses are now becomming dependent upon the government. The next generation is less knowledgeable about everything but entertainment. Why have we become so lazy. Sure, there are many people who are self-reliant. Lately, I've been paying attention to the people who are not. I've lived through hurricanes Camille and Andrew, both were catagory 5 storms. After Katrina, no one can seem to survive without the government's help. No one hears about Katrina and Mississippi or Alabama, no--New Orleans--where so many of the people that were seen on the tv were wards of the government. They learned early on that they didn't have to make it on their own, the government gave them stuff. Now it's their right to receive handouts. Wake-up!!!!! Take care of yourselves. Our way of life is at risk.........
