Bin Laden planned decline of the American dream is working?
After a two month hiatus it is time to express opinions again for those that followed my blogs over the years. Developing a program for publishing and marketing my novels as affordable indie ebooks over the past few weeks was a herculean chore. Anyone interested in purchasing a well written exciting adventure novel by a Canadian published author will soon be able to access all six of my novels on Amazon.ca by accessing author Robert J. Gordon. A description of the novels can be seen on www.robertgordon.ca
I have been watching the plight of the USA battling recessionary forces and financial terrorism while dealing primarily with the threat from physical terrorism. I was always been tuned in to the North American political scene as a newswspaper owner/publisher, and a myriad of other careers in the private and public sector, including 14 years as an alien property owner in Florida. I have never witnessed turmoil resulting from such a wide split in American national solidarity. From a distance at least it appears that both sides are inflexible closing the door on compromise. It seems the byword for both political parties, if the media can be believed, is do it our way or suffer the consequences regardless of the eventual outcome. We even have a report in the media in this neighboring nation stating the American religious right recently announced that the storms, earthquakes and other natural disasters plaguing America is a warning from God that the Democrats must be purged from the White House. If I remember Sunday School lessons God if there is such an entity is the savior of all the people regardless of religious affiliation. I don't remember during any in-depth study of the bible that God supported any political agenda. But the bible is a large complicated record of the peoples of the world and maybe we missed the passage.
With Russia still in mark-time mode, Europe on the verge of political collapse similar to the conditions that spawned the Hitler Nazi movement, China and India expanding population base to such and extent the numbers will be unsustainable, America and its dysfunctional UN allies are about the only hope for G40 nation sustainably.
Watching the rise of South American nations mostly at the expense of the free world's need for a soaring bottom line at any expense is troubling. Some of us in Canada watch as the right flexes its recently won majority spinning off our national mining, forestry, and energy sectors formerly co-owned and operated by Canadian/American investors into the hands of foreign ownership in South America and Asia. The side effect of the acquisitions usually means shipping many management and administrative jobs to other countries while posing control over the way our resources are managed.
With America in decline as leaders of free enterprise and democracy, is the end of the society built for our children in jeopardy? Did the Bin Laden orchestrated 9-11 attack cripple the American juggernaut as planned? Will Americans consolidate their differences and once more set the example for strength and leadership or will the forces of change and even evil in the minds of some create the circumstances to end the great post World War II industrial experience led by the United States? If history is any indication all dynasties whether for good or evil eventually fade into oblivion. Is America at the crossroads and will their political differences tearing at the country's very foundation succeed in creating the divisions that the terrorists envisioned by attacking the financial stability of the strongest nation in the world? Are there positive answers to these questions while America divides along political lines?
