State of Control

State of Control
http://www.darkgovernment.com/news/state-of-control/

America has been overrun by control freaks.  Once upon a time the United States
was considered to be "the land of the free and the home of the brave", but today
there are millions of laws, rules and regulations that tightly regulate our
daily lives.  Most of these laws, rules and regulations were established by
people who believed that they had "good intentions", but at this point the nanny
state has become so oppressive that it is strangling the life out of us.

If you look back throughout history, the societies that have really thrived have
had a very high degree of liberty and freedom.  When the bureaucrats get the
upper hand, it can suck the life out of any economy.  Unfortunately, our
political system seems to be a magnet for control freaks.  These control freaks
truly believe that they know better than the rest of us and they are
systematically moving toward taking total control of our lives.

Our rights are being stripped away a little bit more with each passing day, and
we are being told that we need a "permit" or a "license" for almost
everything.  Many younger Americans have been living this kind of "straight
jacket existence" for so long that they don't even remember what real liberty
and freedom are.  We are steamrolling down the road toward totalitarianism, and
most Americans don't even realize what is happening

Sadly, there are many Americans that actually agree that the state should
regulate nearly every detail of our lives.  There are many Americans that
actually believe that life is better when there are millions of rules that we
all have to follow.  There are many Americans that actually believe that too
much liberty and freedom is a bad thing.

If we are not careful the control freaks are going to destroy this nation.
They always tell us that the rules that they are imposing upon us are "for our
own good", but every time they lay another burden on our backs they just suck a
little bit more life out of us all.

The following are 18 examples of the nanny state gone wild....

#1 New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg has announced that he wants to ban the
sale of all large sodas and sugary drinks in order to fight obesity.
Personally I don't have any sodas in my refrigerator, but I certainly do not
want the government telling me that I am banned from drinking large sodas.
Every American should have the freedom to decide if they want to drink soda or
not.
