A Corrupted Nation

How does a nation that is the most powerful in the world have poverty issues? How is it that the rich get richer and yet the poor continue to stay poor? If the government fulfills all of it's promises then these wouldn't be issues. But the people that make up the government supply the public with words they think we want to hear rather then actual results. Tomas Sowell describes these people and their words in his book "The Vision of The Anointed". Sowell's ideas, my not be targeting the government in particular, but in my opinion his ideas reflect those actions made by the U.S. government. I have developed my opinions in relation to Sowell's ideas, and examples. In the book there are such chapter's titled, "Flattering Unction", "By The Numbers", "The Irrelevance of Evidence", and "Optional Reality", all of which I will use in this essay to further support my ideas. Also, I will use many points given by John Stossel, in his video "Stossel Goes to Washington". Stossel, questions actions which were wrongfully made, brings about ideas and points that most people wouldn't dare, and recognizes lies and deceit. The government takes our loyalty and trust, for stupidity and ignorance, power is their number o


ne priority, and they have no integrity and are hypocritical. These are all characteristics of corruption. The characteristics are not always recognized for the simple fact that "we the people" trust our government to protect us, but where do we turn for protection from our government?

I believe Power is the number one priority amongst the anointed. They want to make sure that we are lower then them in order to assure their safety. By "safety", I mean that every being in the anointed is well off. They have nice cars, they are financially stable, and they have more power over your life then you do. They decided how much to charge you in taxes. They jack up tax prices and give bogus statements that these taxes are for the "good of the country". They make us think that we benefit from them taking our money. Taxpayers give so much of their hard working money to the government to support these programs, yet there is still no evident improvement. Take teen pregnancies for example, According to the website http://members.tripod.com/teenbirth/, (A site dedicated to helping lower the number of teen pregnancies) Every 26 seconds a US teen becomes pregnant, and every hour 56 babies are born to teen mothers. These numbers are horrifyingly true, as I have seen many of my friends struggle with this issue. There are thousands of dollars given to programs to help lower the numbers, but the rates of teen pregnancies are only raising. Thomas Sowell describes this situation in Chapter 2, "The Pattern". From pages 17 thru 21, Sowell describes the stages. First "The Crisis" (venereal diseases, pregnancies before marriage, and the emotionally disastrous results of irresponsible sexual behavior amongst teens). This "crisis" was actually not so much of a crisis after all. Sowell writes that the fertility rate among teen girls had been declining for more then a decade, and venereal disease was also declining. A decline in our society's negative issues is what the government calls a crisis? Of course, because this is just another excuse to take taxpayer's money! There is nothing wrong with having taxes for bettering our country, but the amount Americans spend on taxes each year is outrageous. According to a graph, on "john Stossel Goes to Washington", taxpaying has gone from 20 dollars over the years to what it is now, (Over 10,000 dollars a year). One woman said that each year Americans pay more for taxes then they do for food, clothes and shelter combined. Once again, the numbers are outrageous. The reason for this
