It is essential to inform young children about the dangers of lying behaviour and statism.

| Clinton's statist tiranny |
And speaking of liars, consider the meaning of what most people think of Bill Clinton. Polls show that nearly two-third's of voters in this country think Clinton is a liar, yet only a third of that number holds this against him, apparently not wanting to discriminate against a liar. If these polls are accurate, as I fear they are, this country is in far deeper trouble than anyone can imagine. This means we have now reached the point in this country where only about 20% of the adult population morally disapproves of a liar and holds it against him.
Most children are aware of what their parents think of Clinton, so what kind of message does this send to the children of these parents who don't discriminate against liars? That it is okay to lie, that some of the most "successful" people in this country are liars and there is nothing wrong with lying.
Few realize the connection between those adults who don't discriminate against liars, such as Clinton, and the rise of crime in America. You need only remember the following to understand the connection: a person must first become a liar in order to transform himself into a criminal. Lying is an absolute prerequisite to the development of a criminal: it is one of the first steps involved in the creation of a criminal. To morally sanction lying is to sanction the very activity which is essential to creating more criminals and, therefore, bring us only more of the carnage of crime. With the rise in the number of liars in this country, we have seen a rise in crime - and this is no coincidence. |
In a free society, there would still be some crime, but it would virtually be non-existent since there wouldn't be the example of statism around to fertilize the minds of children, turning them into criminals. When I was a youngster, few people in my community ever locked the doors to their homes, not even at night when they were asleep, and people routinely left their unlocked cars parked on the street with the keys in it. While I lived there, there wasn't a single murder or armed robbery. However, 50 years of statism has now changed the life even in small towns. Now, in these towns, doors are locked and crime has now spread to these communities, bringing terror to its residents.
If you wish to do something about crime, you must fight against the ideas that create criminals, you must fight against statism and reclaim your right to live in freedom. If you don't, a harsh sentence will be handed down to you if totalitarianism takes hold of this land: terror and misery - and you may even be given the penalty of death, as it has been given to millions in this century at the hands of tyrants. | |
