Have You Ever Noticed?

Have you ever noticed that folks who promote socialism are usually the extremely rich folks? (here is a list). For example, Nancy Pelosi's net worth is $120 million (see here); Kamala Harris' net worth is $4 million (see here), and Karen Bass' net worth is $11 million (see here).

In looking at socialism, an interesting question might be, "Does the Bible promote socialism?" In reading this article, note the key words, "freedom" (see here) and "responsibility." Then note the scripture references provided (cf. Acts 17:10-11), then note the following quoted conclusion: "Again, the purpose of this article is not to advocate some political position, but to examine the claim that socialism is rooted in the Bible. As we have seen, it is not."

Have you ever noticed that socialism has never worked and never will (see article).  Also note the results of socialism in Venezuela (see article and see Breitbart pictures).

Have you ever noticed that rich elite folks are many times involved in biased schemes via bribery, by which to gain advantage over folks who are not rich, but try to follow the rule of law and do what they know is right? (see USA Today articlethis article, and this article).

Have you ever noticed that folks who are fiscally irresponsible and spend themselves into oblivion can never dig themselves out of the financial hole they have created for themselves? (see here). Trying to keep up with the Joneses is an impossible task (see #2), plus the fact that many of the Joneses are dead broke.

After reading and thinking about all of the above, perhaps we should slow down the pace, and start noticing things (if we haven't already - see here).
