America needs to wake up to the fact that the Executive Branch of government is systematically making Congress impotent and in the future, the real power will be in the Executive Branch. We will elect representatives to Congress that will have very little actual authority to control what happens in our country, and the people's interests will be ignored. The President will make decisions for us!
The rights and freedoms of the Constitution are already being trod upon, and if America keeps going down the current path, the Constitution will become a historical document that has insignificant effect on our government.
Consider these actions taken by President Obama:
Government control over private financial institutions and the attempt to have the Federal Reserve be the oversight for them! The Federal Reserve is one of the least "transparent" segments of government. Does anyone know who really owns the Fed? The government doesn't own it or control it. President Obama is exerting the powers of the Executive Branch over the Fed and American financial institutions. There is no constitutional authority for these actions.
The appointment of Czars over various segments of our society, who answer only to the President and not to Congress.
The government has inserted itself into private business in collusion with the unions. Who is really running these giants of industry now? President Obama has inserted his choices of CEOs into these companies and is even telling companies what they can pay their employees! There is no constitutional authority for these actions.
The unions have made huge gains in control of the industries in which they work. The unions financially supported President Obama's campaign, so he has "paid back" with the power and control that the unions wanted.
President Obama is pushing a national health care system that gives government control over our medical care and eliminates any right to privacy in our medical care that we've had in the past. The government's track record for administering medicare, medicaid, and social security is dismal. Why would we want them handling something as critical to our well being as our health care. The President's plan would push out private medical insurance and millions of people would still remain uninsured. Is there any country in the world who has a national health care system that is satisfactory? Canadians and English citizens would not make that claim. They are coming to the United States to get the medical care they can't get in their countries! Who else in the world is an example of how this national health care system would benefit us? Let me know if you find one.
Candidate Obama promised unprecedented "transparency" in government, but he has provided less transparency than in previous administrations.
Candidate Obama promised the American people time to examine prospective bills before he signed or rejected them. This was not done for the largest spending bill in history and continues to not be done.
Beware of his rhetoric! He states statistics that have no basis in reality. He camouflages his actions with his clever phrases and his facade of concern for the American people. We are experiencing "Chicago style" politics on the federal level.
I won't state any more of the "obvious" tactics being employed by our President. President Obama has ignored the restrictions place upon his office by the Constitution. He taught Constitutional law, so he knows EXACTLY what he is doing. He is moving our country toward socialism, where government (namely the President) is in control.
As we watch the fireworks this July 4th, I hope it will be an new inspiration for the American people to speak up and object to the destruction of our Constitution and the grab for power and control by the Executive Branch of our government.
