It has been 30 years since Americans last came together to throw out a tyrannical government who, with Marxist lies and unabridged arrogance, stole our treasure

A Tea Party Tribute: The Age of Reagan and the Tyranny of the Elite



Sometimes there comes a time when a free people of a free nation must stand together and choose their fate. Sometimes it comes through war, sometimes famine, sometimes from of a fleet of planes marked by the rising sun crossing the horizon.

For our generation, in this great nation, it will come with a vote this November. The enemy never changes, for it is always the tyranny of the elite, those few whose arrogance and thirst for power necessitate revolt by the masses so that the many may retake control of their lives to build a better future for themselves and their families, free from government interference. It is no different this time than it has been for many others before us, and the choice we face could not be clearer. We will choose to stand by our forefathers and put our trust in the American individual, we whose rights are guaranteed not by man, but by our creator? Will we reaffirm our commitment to government of the people, by the people, for the people and remain united against those few elite whose thirst for influence and power will not be satiated until they control not only our banks, our healthcare, and our industries, but our very lives as well? It has been 30 years since Americans last came together to throw out a tyrannical government who, with Marxist lies and unabridged arrogance, stole our treasure with sky high tax rates and laws written for a utopian society that did not exist. Millions lost their homes, their savings and their sense of self-worth. Poverty swept the nation and hopelessness reigned. They said this was the price for progress, that this was our destiny. But then there came a man, a great communicator, who could put into words what many felt, but lacked the vocabulary to express. He said we were an honorable people with an honorable past. He said we were a great nation, the best the world had ever known, and our future was filled with promise. Ronald Reagan said we need not live in fear. He knew where the problem lay, not with the people of a blessed nation, but a government grown bloated and corrupt, ruled by few, consuming everything and returning nothing, but poor trinkets and empty words. Liberals would have us believe history provides no path to follow, no solution to our problems, but it does. We know what can happen when a principled leader pushes aside government to propel the individual. Letting people keep their wealth with promise of reward without end should they work hard and follow their dreams. We live in this time, the Age of Reagan, an age of enlightenment that has lasted uninterrupted for three decades. It has accompanied the greatest increase in personal wealth the world has ever known with most rising out of poverty than any other time in human history. While we have no great leader to guide us, only reminders of a gone, but not forgotten man, we must act this November to continue Reagan’s legacy against those who would dismantle it for their own selfish gain.

The Tyranny of the Elite

We cannot allow the Washington elite, the few who use economic tyranny to steal our wealth only to leave us with a debt we can never repay, remain in power. It is the road to serfdom, and for those who would scoff that this cannot happen in America, I say to you it already has. It took decades to end the welfare cycle that impoverished millions and destroyed so many lives, and yet in only a few short years in power, liberals have once again brought this plague back to our shores. Record numbers of Americans now rely on food stamps, public housing and welfare in order to meet their most basic needs, and their numbers grow with each passing day. Poverty and unemployment have reached heights not known for a generation. If economic prosperity is not soon returned to our nation, many of our fellow citizens will remain forever cut off from the American dream, as will their descendants, for all their lives. It has happened before and it can happen again. Either this nation will stand together and affirm that our rights come from our creator, and not those privileged few who inhabit the halls of power, or some day we too will be forced down the path to servitude, slaves to a government and debt that we did not want and did not ask for. This November we face not simply the choice between conservative or liberal, but freedom or servitude. Will we allow those who care nothing for our dreams, our guns, or our religion determine our future and squander America’s prosperity, or will we stand together to send a message that it is our country, not theirs. That our wealth and our lives are ours to do with what we choose, free from the tyranny of the elite.
