Limits or no limits?
There are two vastly different perspectives on how the people of America should live their lives. One seeks to control our every action and limit freedom. The other seeks to create an environment where, if you so choose to, you can be a success and also provide a way for others to succeed.
We have one side that presents a world view of doom and gloom. They push ideas such as climate change and class envy, and demagogue anyone who disagrees with their ideas or policies, and have an inclination to divide us amongst color, gender and success.
Another side believes people are inherently good, and if allowed the environment to do so will in most cases do the right thing. They believe that greed is someone envying someone else’s money, and not the intent to keep what you earn. They want less government control and only want to be allowed to succeed on their own.
On one hand, we can choose government control and be limited by it and also be enslaved to a few, or we can choose to limit government and be limited only by ourselves.
You decide what side Republicans and Democrats represent.
