Most know the story of England’s heroic and singular stand against the rising tide of Nazism. Winston Churchill’s solo voice persistently heralded Hitler’s treachery and reversed the course of appeasement taken by so many. Due to England’s defiant stance Nazism’s high water mark was laid at their shores. So to, for those who pay attention to recent events, there is a prescience of two futures; either a high water mark or a slow inexorable march towards lesser freedoms both social and economic.
Whereas we do not face a corporeal invading army, there is, nonetheless, equal threat. It lies within the hovering enticements of benefits and restrictive regulations, of taxations and enumerations of Rights which heretofore remained unalienable not subjected to legal wrangling. The resultant will be a rapid pyrolytic catalysis of ineffable freedoms an unending precession of legalist’s interpretation of all that is divinely human and munificent.
We who have experience and have shed the naïve allusions of vapid idealism comprehend, share the company of those who founded this expedient, yet sometimes imperfect and contradictory American experiment; know that solutions are to be made at the moment of necessity and not caged by bureaucratic entanglements. All this is under threat.
Standing now at Frost's epithetic road, we must ask ourselves the inevitable: Should we stand or should we slink and continue to appease? In full prophetic knowledge as to the consequences of such apathy, can we afford to be a bystander or engage, to whatever small or large extent we can, to possibly alter the course so many others have set for us?
As with everything in life it will remain an unknown in all but the most resolute to this cause.
