I've Been Told, When the Horse Don't Pull You Have to Carry the Load

Below is a transcript of Glenn’s monologue 

You begin to feel invisible. The average person, and this is Americans left, right, center, but not the people who are centered in politics. Those who are driven by politics will not feel this way because they will be trying to grab power. This is the average Democrat, the average Republican, the average independent, who are not geared towards politics. They have just let the parties dictate who they are, but soon they will see that neither party is telling them the truth.

And so those people who are just the regular neighbors that we had, not the politicians or the people who are in the parties, they will begin to feel invisible – nobody’s listening to me, nobody sees my plight. They will work harder for less. We’re all probably doing that already. They’ll begin to wonder why. Why am I doing any of this? Our kids will wonder why am I going to school, and I’m going to rack up all these bills? Why?

Most importantly, the next one, they will see others not abiding by the rule of law. When that one happens, it’s trouble, because this, why am I doing that when I could just steal it, when I could just take it, when I can just play the party game, and I’ll just take it? I’ll control others. That’s when things really come out of control, a crisis hits, and we will look for something or someone to unify. This is what’s coming now. This is the new chalkboard.

So what is the answer? Here comes the controversial answer, and I don’t think it’s really, shouldn’t be all that controversial. Have to have faith, and you add to faith virtue and to virtue knowledge and to knowledge moderation, moderation patience, patience reverence, reverence kindness into charity. This comes from 2 Peter, and this is the path.
