Equality is not Sharing with your Brother what you have. Equality is working and be self-sufficient.

The Founding Fathers of this republic we call, The United States of America created a nation unequal in the annals of time. They formed a country of freedom and personal responsibility for the individual. Their model was
based on three basic tenets:

Freedom of assembly, freedom of religion and freedom to work.

They envisioned a society where each individual had the maximum amount of freedom and flexibility to enjoy among other things, the three inalienable rights of Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness endowed by our creator.

These rights were so important to the founders that they included them in the Bill of Rights of our constitution so that each man, woman and child could enjoy the fruits of their labor free from infringement from government.

Those were the basic ideals of the men and women who fought long and hard in the American Revolution against the tyrannical policies of King George in 1776 to form the most perfect union the world has ever known, the last best hope for mankind on earth.

The United States was, has been and must continue to be the beacon of freedom and hope not only for the people of America but also for all the people around the globe who look to this country for guidance and hope. Yes, this is how my father and many Europeans in the 1950's and the 1960's viewed this country. America was for them, the best hope for a better life. This was also the reason for my coming to America so many years ago.

Sixty years ago when my oldest brother 20 years my senior could not find work in my native Sicily, my father planned to take his family to the United States so that my brother could find work and be self-sufficient.

Note that I said self-sufficient, I did not say dependent on the government for assistance and help. My father never thought of coming to the United States to become a freeloader. My father believed in opportunity and that is how he viewed the United States, a country that offered anyone and everyone willing to work, the chance for a better life through hard work and personal responsibility.

Fifty years ago, a Democratic president in the name of John F Kennedy said it best to describe the ideals that made this country great, the ideals my father believed in.

President Kennedy said, "...Ask not what your country can do for you; ask
what you can do for your country." In other words, what anyone should
expect from government is an avenue for growth and opportunity to work, a free society that enables anyone with ambition, motivation and perseverance to do the best for him or herself free of obstacles and other impediments from the government.

Well, look at what we have today under President Obama. Since he became president, he has engaged in the largest social agenda in our nation’s history. Mr. Obama wants to erase 200 years of free-enterprise history with socialism. In fact, Obama’s collectivism as it can be called (the distribution of wealth) is exactly what
he has done in the past four years as president.

He wants to distribute the wealth of others to those able-body individuals of this country who have never worked and who continue to live on the shoulders of working Americans. Collectivism is the idea that if you have $1, you should share that $1 with another so that both of you can have 50 cents.

This is Obama’s new equality for this country and if we give Mr. Obama another four years in the White House, this is exactly what we will get. Goodbye to the free-enterprise system, goodbye to entrepreneurships and goodbye to motivation and innovation.

The new Obama’s America will be a country of collectivists, the sharing of wealth instead of a country that creates wealth.

For more than 200 years, through Democrat and Republican presidents, this country has been a giant among nations with the highest standards of living of any country in the world.

I can say that because I am an authority. I know first-hand what it is like living outside the United States when one has to practically beg for a days’ work, where amenities are few, running water scarce, basic necessities had to get if one can get them at all, freedom is nonexistent etc. etc.

Yes, America today is on the threshold of success or failure. If we are to be
successful, change must come to Washington this November. We can no longer
sustain unprecedented trillion dollar deficits, 23 million American unemployed, skyrocketing health care costs, government regulations that stifles businesses’ ability to hire new workers and innovate by bringing new products to the free market.

Doing less will plunge this nation to the depths of despair and we will surely end up as another failed socialist country.

This November, the United States needs and demands a new leader to save this country from total annihilation. In 1980 when this country was in dire straits economically, morally and financially, Ronald Reagan came to the rescue.

Today, just as then, a new leader is in the wings to take this country back to the heights of yesterday. 

This time we have Mitt Romney.
