"Equal Rights NOT Equal Stuff"
April 15th, I decided that the kids needed to understand the role of government, why we became a nation and what we can do to protect our nation "as stated under the Constitution". I have always agreed with the Tea Party movement and believe that it is not just over taxation that is making Americans mad, but the way the government spends the money and the way the government has grown so large that basic civil and Constitutional rights are being violated. Ella feels very passionately about this, probably from watching me, and Eli is understanding what sacrifices were made by our forefathers when creating this great Nation. To say the least, we are living in a time where our children need to know what the Constitution says, so we and they can make sure their rights are protected and they do not have to know what it is like to live where the government controls the people, instead of "We the People" as stated in the Constitution.
