What is patriotism, its kinda like the guy who said he could not define pornography but he recognized it when he saw it. I would like to say I can define what is not patriotism. The most unpatriotic act I can think of is to dissipate the dollar. Any Politian who tells you how patriotic they are and then spends money above the budget is in effect destroying our dollar. The dollar is being attacked and savaged more than ever in our history, when a countries currency is destroyed, it destroys a country. All my life I have saved and invested money, this is what the American striving building class does, if our currency is destroyed there would be no purpose in saving investing, actually there would be no purpose in working, planning and really what would we have to defend? Currency destruction is the greatest current threat, this is my opinion, I await your rebuttals, attacks, and agreements.
