You choose your own destiny

When you choose your government that is your right as a free people. However, as a free nation ourselves, we choose who to do business with and who not to do business with. Who to give charity to and who not to. It's our money and we are not obligated to give it to anyone. Can you not understand that the choices you make effect the choices your neighbors make. We don't have the right to tell any country who they should elect as their leader; however, you must live with the consequences of who you elect.

Look at the USA. Many people hate George Bush but must live with their nations decision. The world stands poised to give you all the help you need, but you must prove willingly to live in peace. You do that through actions not words. Your vote constitutes your belief in what and who you think are best for your nation. All the world judges each country by who they elect as their leader to represent them on the world stage. It is not a game. It's your life and the lives of your children. The Law of Conservation of energy states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Choose your future well my friends.
