America...Still Going David R Bailly

What has happened to America? The baby boomers were taught by the Greatest Generation about a country that no longer exists. The principles about equality, justice, and fairness seem to have been discarded by subsequent generations, leading toward a selfish and lawless society in which our young people now embrace philosophies and ideals that are a great distance from the paths created by our founding fathers and the modest adjustments made over the past 240-plus years. This story started with "AMERICA Going, Going..." and continues in "AMERICA... Still Going". Can we or, indeed, should we return to some of our roots as a country, or are we destined to build for a much different future than many of us ever imagined was possible? Some of my fellow Conservatives and I believe that America is in trouble but are still confident that with the correct actions we can prevent our "ship of state" from capsizing and sinking. And then along came a worldwide pandemic. Will we return to some of the important basics while learning from the mistakes of our past, or will we continue in a downward spiral toward decay and destruction? Decisions need to be made now, and together we can once again make this amazing country a beacon of liberty and hope to shine around a world in confusion and disarray. Where we go from here is the ultimate question that needs to be answered before it is too late.
