Do Voters Really Want "Change" or "Comfort"?

Today is primary day in Pennsylvania and analysts expect that the result of today's vote will more clearly define who the Democratic Presidential candidate will be. In the end, will it even matter who runs? Both candidates and their supporters are chanting "Change" when in reality what they really want is to feel "Comfort". They feel that by ignoring certain facts and only looking at how they can target the blame for the world's problems on the desk of the current administration, they will effect "Change" because "we can do it better". Do what better?

While this President has done more than the rest of the free world, combined, to help fight AIDS and malaria in Africa, hardly anybody in the mainstream media has covered this as "news" because it makes Americans "uncomfortable". The same goes with the good things that the United States has been able to do for Iraqis in the midst of the ongoing war with Al Qaeda and their Iranian (and other) supporters. None of these works of charity and humanity seem to command the media attention because they go against the grain of the negative reporting that sells more newspapers. Good news just does not sell as well as bad news because when people are "comfortable" they go about their business in a kind of ignorant bliss that politicians would kill for (and sometimes do).

Do people really want change or do they just want to feel comfortable again? Do they really think the President can drop gas prices to any level that would bring them comfort? Do they really think anybody can do anything to change natural disasters like hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, fires, new strains of viral diseases, terrorist attacks, droughts, etc...?

There's only ONE entity known to man that can do such things and He has tried to warn us about what is coming. He tried so hard to warn us, He sent his own Son to help save us. When that didn't work, He sent His Son's Mother to ask us to listen to what it was Her Son said and make a "change". If we haven't done it in all these years, what makes a few politicians think they can do it?

Think about this:
China is using more resources than the entire North American continent these days. They are polluting the environment with more toxic waste than one could imagine. Their peasant class (farm workers) have had their drinking waters poisoned by industrialists. They are getting sick and it will not be long before they realize why it is and who it was that brought this on. There are more people in China drinking deadly polluted water than there are in the entire United States. This isn't to say that the USA is not contributing to this same problem, but just imagine if this were the case in New Jersey or California. How long before civil revolt would occur on both coasts?

Japan ran out of butter in its grocery stores yesterday. This has caused a minor crisis...and it's just butter. Wait until they run out of rice and other main staples that their culture relies on. Crop failures are being reported all over Asia...it won't be long before supplies are gone.

Do you wonder why bread has shot up in price here in the USA? Try buying produce this week and compare it to last month's prices. Even the outlet stores' prices are up...and that's for the old stuff.

People can talk about whether or not the USA is in a recession. It doesn't matter because the real problem facing this country and the entire world is a food shortage. Soon, it will be water.

Everyone likes to think that they are somehow more benevolent and intelligent than those who might rebel, but how long could you go without water? If your neighbors would not share their water with you and your family, how long would it be before you would get violent? Be honest.

Financial woes can usually take care of themselves with time and effort. People get uncomfortable, but they usually don't go into massive rebellions. Starvation, on the other hand, usually only takes a few short weeks before people rebel. Few of the voters casting ballots today are thinking about this. They are mostly thinking about their own comfort. Are they going to be willing to share their wealth for the benefit of others or are they going to vote for "Change" again when the time comes so they can maintain their "Comfort"?

When you hear voters talk about "Change", they typically go on about how they don't want to be involved in wars and the dirty business of being the world's police force. Well, all they will have to do is vote for their "Change" and wait in "Comfort" while the rest of the world starts rebelling...because the "Change" is on its way and you can be assured of that. God has told us so and now He is showing us He means it.
