The irony of headlines… one for preventing birth, one promoting.  Nancy Pelosi will likely regret the faulty logic she’s employing to suggest birthcontrol will help the economy.  A proponent of big huge government, Pelosi seems to forget or ignores the fact that socialism needs lots of new little producers (read: taxpayersandpayersandpayers) to support the regime.

The Canon corporation in Japan sees the negative result of low birthrate and is scrambling to reverse the trend of negative population numbers.  Simple economics reveals the crisis of a pregressive nations’ aging population and low birthrate (to support that aged population).  Same thing will happen in the US.  Speaking in strictly econmic terms, if government programs — free to all, citizen or no, continue to multiply out of control and if this nation loses ‘workers’ or revenue generators in the next few generations, this nation will never survive.  It can’t at the current rate, and it certainly won’t in the future.

And people are protesting a fence along the US border??  Do you suppose the US would be able to handle DNA testing on the estimated ten million illegals in this country?!?!  In an attempt to curb or expel illegals, the French government is proposing to do such testing.  O, and for the record, I’m not anti-immigration.  Actually, quite the opposite — I’d say welcome home — honestly and lawfully come in the front door.

  A prayer from the Word for today:

And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment; That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ;  Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.”  — philippians 1.9-11
