02/16/2005: "The Fix to the Social Security Crisis and Immigration Crisis"

Lately I have been hearing so much about the social security crisis and the immigration crisis. President Bush is spending much of his “political capital” on his attempt to fix the social security crisis. Bill Bennet on his radio show Morning in America has spent almost two weeks discussing the issue of the immigration crisis.

While I agree with both that we do in deed have problems in these areas, none of the discussions that I hear seem to get back to the root cause of the problem and hence have no real chance of coming up with a good solution.

I know my analysis is going to be very unpopular, and I know that I am going to get trashed for saying it, but I have learned to do and say (and write about) what the little voice in my head tells me to do.

In the standard analyses of these problems we hear of a shift in the demographics as a cause for the social security crisis. We have fewer and fewer people paying into the system. But the analysis never goes any farther. Why do we have fewer people paying into the system? Because we have aborted 42 million babies since Roe V. Wade. This seems so simple and clear to me, yet it is never discussed. We are reaping what we have sowed. We want things our way, and now we are seeing the consequences.

In the immigration debate we hear that we need workers that will take all of these low paying jobs. Believe it or not again the abortion issue comes in. We have killed 42 million babies. Out of that population of babies, some of them would have taken these low paying jobs. I know that thought sounds just terrible to our politically correct society, but it is indeed true. Yes, it is true some would have lawyers, some would have been Doctors, some would have been factory workers and some would have been laborers. It is just a fact of life.

So how did we get to where we are? I think the bottom line is this; man is by his very nature evil. We want what we want and we want it now! We wanted no fault divorce so that when my fancy burned for someone else I could easily get out of my obligation. Hence destroying the fabric of the family. I wanted to have sex with whoever I wanted to have sex with without any consequences hence we want easy access to abortion with no shame attached.

We have sowed the wind and we are reaping the whirlwind.

What is the solution?

2 Chronicles 7:14
“if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”

The real solution is healthy God-fearing families having healthy God-fearing children. This is not rocket science.

According to your logic, the reason is also the pill. How many babies have not been born because of the pill?

Yes indeed, I am consistent. I would indeed include the pill. Especially because the pill is abortifacient, purposefully killing a fertilized egg.

Your logic is impressive,
You made such a great point, I could not have said it better myself. We live in a society that completely honors personal freedom (at all costs) and so totally disreguards life that even my thinking was corrupted.

I did not even consider all those lost to other forms of "birth control".

I know those little ones would be such a bother and such a huge ecomomic drain on us. And I know, money and personal freedom are our gods.

Thank you for clarifying my thinking.
