The other day, I was watching some TV and caught a little bit of "E", that show where they talk about movie stars and who's fat and who got caught driving intoxicated, etc, etc. And they happened to run a special on Michelle Obama and everyone they interviewed simply raved about how great she is for Women's Rights and how wonderful the Obama's are. And more than before, it occurred to me that everybody's blind with Obama-rama. Everybody except Christians (and gun owners) that is.
This concerns me. Because whenever the majority of the public starts to do something, I begin wondering how they're being suckered. Take the big housing boom for instance. I literally heard something along the lines of, "You should buy the biggest house you can possibly afford because homes never lose their value and its the single best investment you can make."
The problem with mass public beliefs like this is the public becomes blind to the dangers and easily falls prey to sharks looking to exploit their belief. The housing bust easily demonstrates this with all the folks who got in over their head and not to mention the consequences our country is now suffering due to it.
So what concerns me now is our country thinks Obama is this great hope for change and that he's the best thing to ever happen to this country.
Immediately I begin wondering if we've been suckered and what the potential fallout could be. Considering the fact that Christians seem to be the only folks who don't think he's the best thing, doubly concerns me. What divisive issue is going to arise to exploit this difference of opinion and what's the fallout going to be?
Just something to think about...
Also, if you're wanting a newer, bigger house, just wait 15 years. (A friend of mine pointed this out to me) Take a look around at all the hospitals being built. Why are they being built? Is it because we're experiencing a great population boom? Partially, but more so its because the baby boomers are getting old and they're going to need some serious health care in the next 5 years onward. They'll be dying off and with it they'll be leaving behind all the big homes they've accumulated. I'm thinking there's going to be a surplus of these big homes and one will find a big home is suddenly a lot more affordable than it used to be. Well shoot, right now big homes are suddenly a lot more affordable than they used to be...
