Dear Editor:

Our country is vastly losing the global respect that other countries had for us. The United States is on the way to becoming a country like China. I don’t want to be owned by China or any other country.

How would you like to be told how many children you could have or would you like to be ruled by communism?

I love all of the freedom that I have been given and I love this country. We as a country must stand up for our beliefs and not be ashamed to say I am a U.S. citizen.

We must remain a Godly country. Please think of all the soldiers and civilians who gave their life for the freedoms we now have. We may not always have them. I love these United States, but I must say that lately I have been thinking of moving to another country.

We have one of the greatest countries in the world, so let’s take care of it.

If our country falls, it will never be the same again. We as a people will never be the same.

Do we want to be another Babylon or another China? Our government must not make promises they can’t keep or have no intention of keeping.

Does trust matter any more? The truth matters. We have become a corrupt country. We are only here for a little while. I am so thankful for the life that God has given to me. I am Pro-Life. God says thou shalt not kill. Oh, by the way, I am not better off now than I was four years ago. Some people are spinning more tales than a tuxedo factory. So, these are a few things to think about.
