What Do You Want From Me?

While I was at CPAC, I had some people ask me questions about how I would handle things as 'Your Choice for Libertarian Dictator in 2016'. I answered them then, but I thought I should let you, the citizens of these United States, know what is being asked of me. I'm also doing this to open dialogue.

What would you do about pot?

I would legalize marijuana. I see it as a renewable resource. It grows fairly fast, which leads to quick turn over and harvesting. The plants can then be used for medicine, paper, rope, oil, and canvas material. It would be good for America's economy. 

How about the Department of Education?

I would dissolve it. I truly believe that education should be decided at the state and local level. Here's one of the reasons why. I grew up in a farming community. The high school I attended had a FFA barn. Should every school have a FFA chapter or a barn? No. It made sense in my community. Every community, every state is different and should be treated as such. I don't believe people who have never been to your state should decide how you learn or what you teach. That's why we elect school boards.

Obamacare and Health Care? 

I would repeal the Affordable Care Act. It's full of mathematical errors. It doesn't make sense. Any bill that's over 50 pages should be marked TL;DR, then never voted on. Also, I would downsize the FDA. I believe it has grown too big and has become corrupt. 
I believe that health care should only be between the patient and their provider. No one else. If I want to live without man-made medicine, that should be my choice. If someone does not want to receive a blood transfusion, their choice. If someone doesn't want to buy insurance that doesn't fit their lifestyle, they shouldn't have to. 

Let's get back our freedom, America!

Do you have a question about how I would run the federal government when I'm elected dictator? Feel free to leave it in the comment section & I will answer it. 

Testing Your Heart

"Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this," says the Lord Almighty, "and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessings that there will not be room enough to store it."   Malachi 3:10

 I was reading through my Duck Commander devotional and Al Robertson decided to use and meditate on this verse. Al talked about how he used to preach this. I grew up going to church and I have heard SO many sermons on tithing. How I should tithe to the church, or whoever was 'feeding' me. How I'm planting seeds in faith. On the other hand, I was raised my parents, who always said it was the Lord's money. Sometimes the tithing/offering money went to who they were led to give it to. Sometimes it was the church. Sometimes other ministries or missionaries. Sometimes to a friend who needs financial help. 

But I love how Al describes what this verse is God is saying 'Try to out give me! Think that giving all that you have in the world will leave with nothing? Try me. I will bless you with everything you gave and more!' 

All too often today, we as Christians lose where our focus should be. We get caught up in language, people's lifestyles, or church politics. This is not what we were made for! We were made to give.

Giving isn't just about money. Though if you listen to some churches preach about it, that's where their focus is and that's wrong. We are to give all of ourselves. Time. Love. Talent. Friendship. Whatever you have, give it with a thankful heart. If you do this, you will notice an awesome and radical change in your life!!
