At the State Capitol where I went to my hearing there's this copy of "The Gettysburg Address". Wish they'd read it. They denied my case and I have to appeal it and they suggest I get an Attorney due to the complexity of the case. The evidence was all there but they didn't look at it.
The Gettysburg Address, 1863
Fourscore and seven* years ago our fa¬thers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a por¬tion of that field as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate—we cannot consecrate—we cannot hallow—this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us, the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task re¬maining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased de¬votion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion; that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain; that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom; and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

Our State does not follow or rule by this Address. They seem to have forgotten their vows and oaths to uphold fairness in doctrine. Then we all wonder how and why our markets have been manipulated for so long. The answer is the elected officials are all about getting their name on a poster or some award than the truth. Finding an Attorney in this town that will help me is next to impossible. They don't want to rock the boat. FWIW...at least we get to read what the intent was for. It's too bad the intent got lost in politics. JMO, MYW |
