The Rules of Getting What You Want...

We have let ourselves be fooled. Fooled into thinking that it was someone else's  job, into trusting that because somebody else said they would take care of it would all be okay. The problem is that we have given over the 49% share of our life to someone else. They were the people who said, vote for me and I will take care of your life. Vote for me and I will take care of your children’s education and your well being when you become old. Vote for me and I will create jobs for you and build affordable houses and take care of you when you are sick and protect you against bully's. 

So what happened? What happened was we took our eye off the ball and now those very same people have let us down when we most needed them.

Or so it would appear.

I see the problem slightly differently though. The problem is that we want to blame someone else so we blame the Government. In reality though, there is no such thing. What there is, is a set of rules, a few buildings and some people who work for those who have been voted into office, by us.

So if there is no government what is there?

Okay, so here is the basic principle of what you deserve and who owes it to you.

‘If two people are born at the same time and you are one of them and, if you have the right to a good job and you deserve a nice house and good Schooling for your children so that they can get a good education. And, after you have worked hard all your life and now need taking care of in the style to which you deserve. If you have the right to all these things, if you deserve all of these things; which person, who was born at the same time as you has the responsibility to give them to you?

Does that same person not have the right to all of these things and surely they must also deserve the same things that would make their life fuller and more complete? If so, then who is bound by duty at birth to give it to them?

The truth is that we have the Right to nothing at all, because if we did, by virtue of this quandary someone would have to be bound to give them to us.

Well I have to assume that’s is not what you want to here? The truth is though that we are all in the same boat and the state of the world at present is due in part to the thinking that there will always be some one who will give us the things we deserve. Well in fact there is and it’s you! Yes, we all have the right to many things and many of us who work hard serve our countries pay our taxes, deserve the things we say we would like to have. But in the end there is only one person who will put you first in the pecking order and that of course, is you.
