We talk of freedom all the time, but what freedom other than the freedom of speech do we really have individually? In some places in America we don’t even have that unless you do as society dictates and mandates, is that freedom?
You are free to worship your God so long as you abandon any ideas of living within your beliefs! If you don’t believe in the use of medicine and you have children they will be removed from your home, you will be jailed and in all likelihood be labeled a felon child neglect; if you teach your children to abstain from sex until after marriage the school instructors pass out condoms and teach all children they can get abortions without telling their parents who are supposedly responsible for the children under eighteen years of age; if you teach your children respect and obedience the school instructors teach them it is ok to disrespect and disobey if they disagree with their elders, feel they are being disrespected or feel they are being abused; if you teach your children to be responsible for decisions they make the school instructors teach them to blame it on their Genes, diseases made up by the Surgeon General to reduce stigma that doesn’t actually exist, other people or companies or on your home life and family; if you teach your children certain lifestyles are wrong for you and your family under your beliefs the school instructors teach them their parents are racists and why all types of lifestyles are acceptable to all people and then in some cases encourages them to try it sometime then mark your whole family for potential hate crimes regardless of the fact you teach peace and tolerance; we are forbidden to smoke cigarettes because someone determined it was bad for our health; other neighbors decides what an individual may have and not have in their own yard and even inside of a home they pay their own money to live in.
we are not teaching our children to do and be their best but teaching them how to beat the system, find and exploit the loop-wholes, lie, cheat, steal from one another and how to be whiney, greedy, manipulative, suspicious beings. We even emphasize that negotiations doesn’t mean to compromise anymore but to force ones will upon another using fear to obtain your goals as is depicted in all of William Shatner’s commercials for Priceline, constantly aired on CNN channel twenty nine in California.
According to the INDC Journal issued February 28, 2005 posted by Bill “36% say Roe VS Wade should be overturned, 66% believe first term abortions should be legal, 70% are against late term abortions and 90% of abortions take place in the first trimester.” I heard Senator Obama say “I don’t want my girls to have to pay for a mistake,” during one of his recent talks on abortion. I don’t think anyone likes paying for mistakes they make but its called responsibility and accountability to which everyone should be held for the choices they make good or bad, or as Senator Obama put it “mistakes.” I find their analysis hard to believe since most Christians and Catholics are against abortions and supposedly America has more Christians and Catholics then anything else here. Abortions should not be necessary with all of the people wanting to adopt waiting in line which could provide good homes to children they do want. But most all boys and girls know right from wrong by the time they are twelve years of age today so there should be no real excuse for not being responsible and accountable. One of the major problems we have today is that no one wants to be responsible or accountable for their own mistakes and as long as we continue to enable this attitude in people nothing can ever change because this epidemic stems from the Presidency all the way down to the poorest person in America today.
Responsibility and accountability is a state of mind and it is in the knowing that you are responsible and accountable to someone somewhere. The American leaders have a great responsibility first and foremost to its people and are accountable to the people of America; just as every individual is accountable to their deity first, if they have one, their family second and all else next as well as responsible for the provision, care and teachings of their family members. The one responsibility every American citizen seems to forget is to hold their leaders accountable each and every quarter or every three months a currant report should be demanded to be made public.
But the fact remains that the world is under the impression that we Americans live a harmonious life with true freedom while the reality is we won’t ever achieve true freedom until we can be responsible, accountable and accept as well as respect every difference and shortcoming yet work together for the same common goals. Then and only then shall we have true freedom.

Good article highlighting the hypocritic standards of American morality and social behaviour.
Slight correction….the world is NOT under the impression that Americans live a harmonious life nor do they have FREEDOM; the only ones that believe in such a hopeless fantasy are Americans themselves!; witness the widespread use to words like Freedom, American dream, etc..
Funny how Americans use these words when they are within the borders of the USA but pretend to be Canadian when traveling abroad (oh yes, I have run into these shoddy imitations by the American tourist….).
You would think that they would want to broadcast those sentiments when they were outside the country unless they knew within themselves that it was a fantasy…hmmmm…
The problem is that your news media is so censored that you will never really see what the rest of the world thinks about you…
