While we were ghting for our very lives during the Revolution, E Pluribus Unum, might just be a more important concept

today than it was then. The ght for freedom bound us together and it was our “oneness” that kept us ghting for a common

goal. Today that “oneness” has virtually left our culture. We have become a nation where individual failures should somehow

be placated by government. We are spoiled and believe success and an easy life is some sort of American birth right. When

we talk of freedom we seem to think we have unfettered license to indulge in any hedonistic activity regardless of its effects

on our neighbors and ultimately our culture. It is impossible to attain the lofty ideal of “From many, one” when our own selsh

pursuits are put in front of any measured and responsible respect we must have for our fellow citizens.

If we do not make it the central theme of our culture to value the concepts our Founders so diligently fought for, the great

wealth and good fortune our nation enjoys will be squandered. Ultimately, the left will get what it wants, a society that can no

longer provide for its own, spreading desperation among the least successful in our society and empowering a very small

number of people at the highest levels of government to establish policy where freedoms are curtailed and individual

excellence is no longer the most important quality required to succeed in our nation.

E Pluribus Unum will no longer be.

From many, one, shall become…From many, many suffer.
