Praying for Japan, In God We Trust

So I woke up this morning to hearing about the devastating tsunami and earthquake that hit the northern coast of Japan. And my prayers go out to the Japanese people, for their welfare, safety and for their families.

I also noticed one trend in twitter was pray for Japan. And I thought that with all the anti God garbage on social networking sites, it is great, that pray for Japan is one of the top tweets right now.

However I think it is too bad that the whole feeling for whats in style right now is In God We Trust, but when a crisis has been tended to and is not front page news anymore. Well the style's outdated. And its time to be politically correct again. I think it just verifies that some people do not know where to turn during times of crisis, because they have no foundation or principals to adhere to, and that little divine spark in all of us says, there is a God.

The Hypocrisy Of Unions

Dear Anti Walker Protester,

You are standing on a real hypocritical platform pointing a finger at Walker and Koch Industries, considering the number one contributor to public policy Actblue contributes to Democrats. Not to mention that three out of the four richest men in the world endorse the Democratic party. Warren Buffet backed Hillary Clinton in her bid for Senator. Larry Ellison contributed to Howard Dean's campaign. Bill Gates has contributed more to Democrats then Republicans. But do you see us pointing a finger at you or at them saying that they are insidiously evil? I mean we could get on a high horse and rant all day about how certain union organizations remain at the top of the list of political contributors. But we don't.

Unions once served a purpose and were given the privilege to collectively bargain. They abused that privilege profusely. Can you honestly tell me that someone whose history went from helping to end child labor to associating itself with Jimmy Hoffa and the thugocracy called the Teamsters is not corrupt? Or that Unions have not hurt our country? Take a look at Detroit. How well did the unionized city do? Chrysler? GM? Ford? How well are they doing? How can you be okay working for a unionized business? A business that pays based on seniority rather than work ethic! All Walker did was what was best for the people of WI. The fact that they tried to interrupt the legislative process shows how much they really care about working together; not to mention those Senators who fled and are still AWOL.

Really think about it. You know your state is broke, so is the rest of the country. Trying to tell me otherwise would be ignorant.
