I am just a simple man from very hard working parents who taught me right from wrong and the importance of helping out those less fortunate. Although I have long just coasted along in this great county, I have recently begun voraciously getting up to speed on who we are as a country and how we have behaved around the world since our inception but especially since the late 1800's. We preach honor and fair play but our actions are full of greed, manipulation, and an inability to let people truly be free and to make their own mistakes in life. The rich and powerful ruling elite refuse to play by anything resembling fair and open rules and consistently crush any ideas and anyone who threatens them.
