I'm sure we have all seen the TV offer for those sunglasses that make everything brighter. Has anyone purchased them? I'd like to know if the advertisement is true. And so it is with life, what if everything you've been told about the following isn't what you believed it to be:
- Family
- Church
- State
- Government
- School
- Professional Organizations
- Friends
- Media
- Yourself

Aaron Russo was a businessman, movie producer, and activist. His films included Trading Places and Wise Guys. He created a provocative documentary titled Freedom to Fascism. (circa 2005) In it, he questions the requirement of United States citizens paying income tax and he breaks down the validity of several government agencies. The documentary is about two hours in length. So, please watch it when you have ample time. It is relevant with what we are experiencing today.
Do we give too much of our own power away as individuals and also as a people? Are we a culture programmed to fear by design?
So again, I ask, who is the biggest bully you've encountered? How do we stop them? Please, wake up. Remove the aviator sunglasses. Take action. Tell everyone you know about this video. Get prepared.
PEACE
