Our present woke government is attempting to replace the traditional value system of the USA. In the past, people from all over the world came here not for handouts but for the opportunity to climb the economic ladder. Opportunity, not phony communist propaganda, attracted people to these faraway shores.
Our present administration is attempting to increase our national population by providing incentives to immigrants including food, transportation, housing, cell phones, and debit cards worth a lot of money. Most of the people entering America illegally are not arrested or even detained or deported but many are housed in 5-star hotels with three meals a day. Even known criminals appear to be welcomed since they are not being refused entry into the USA.
If we continue down this path of weakening our once strong moral values, we deserve the increase in crime, violence, and a large segment of people rejecting viable employment. The work ethic is being rejected along with not correcting our children in school for neglecting to do their assignments or not behaving in a reasonable manner. Our once high education standards for living a God-fearing and virtuous life have dwindled to just trying to keep students safe in school.
Our woke culture is an attempt to replace our traditional American values with communist-socialist ones. Our schools and media are preaching that everyone is a victim who deserves a third or fourth chance without any punishing consequences. The rationale for this is ridiculous. Punishment has become “violence against any transgressor” who deserves unlimited chances. Obviously, this lack of punishment only increases repeat offenders.
‘In school, punishment is for other out-of-control people, just not my child.’ This sentiment is pervasive. Consequences for misbehavior are appropriate for other parent’s children.
America appears weak and is getting weaker. We have forgotten that appropriate punishment keeps everyone on the straight and narrow track. For this woke president, the press, teachers, and even parents, American fundamental values are being replaced with woke ones. These are nothing more than camouflaged communist values that sound humane but bring havoc to social order in homes, schools, communities, and our nation.
On his first day in office, President Biden removed all the restrictive laws protecting our border that kept illegal immigrants out of our country. Allowing all illegal immigrants into our nation is a policy of destruction. The same goes for allowing negative behavior to be overlooked by school authorities which will end in chaos and harming many innocent students and teachers as well as the reputation of the institution.
We have to screen these people who want to enter our schools and other institutions to maintain control and safety. We must refuse people who have a history of destructive behavior, which is very difficult to determine for people who do not have to present any identification when they enter our country.
When we open our institutions to all comers without excluding those with a history of psychopathic behavior, we are risking the safety of others. We no longer have a screening process for mental and physical health. The incidents of diseases we thought were eradicated, like tuberculosis and measles, are recurring.
It is better to be safe than sorry for American citizens. Let us return to carefully screening anyone attempting to enter the United States and secure our borders.
