The Ruling Generation

 As adults in the ruling generation, it is our public duty, our responsibility to leave the country in better shape than when we inherited from our foreparents. We today let the Envirostate grow in power and reach, bankrupting the entire economy as the government, at several levels, consumes ever more of the GDP.

This criticism is the one that Mark Levin levels against the current generation of mature American citizens and it is tough to hear, but it is medicine that we need to ingest. This is his criticism on Page 3 of Plunder and Deceit: "History confirms Burke's observation. To embrace the moral order as parents nurturing their children, yet to abandon the moral order as members of the ruling generation, thereby contributing to predictably deleterious public policies with prospectively calamitous outcomes, is a decadence that leads to unstable and potentially oppressive or even tyrannical conditions which, in the end degrade and disassemble the civil society and consume their children's generation and generations beyond."

We need to stand up to Progressives and limit the size of government, set the people free, and turn the free market loose.
