September 15, 2008 ![]() Can we afford to live in America?
I don't mean to be negative here but it
seems that almost everybody I know, is not only feeling the
pinch but living pinched to the point of punching back. There is an
uneasiness in the massive tide of dissatisfaction with the government.
Add to this the gravity of disallusionment in the Good Old American
Dream and the powerful sucking undertow of over-taxation and we find
ourselves bracing for a Perfect Storm, a Perfect Storm of Change.
A Perfect Storm is where all factors come
together, improbably but perfectly timed, to raise the crescendo of
power. The power of the storm can cripple and destroy. The power of the
storm can change the shape and profile of the land. The power of the
storm can cleanse and make new again.
America is the Perfect Storm. Can you feel it
churning, gaining power, rising in its common voice? Of the People, by
the People and For the People ... We the People ARE the ocean and the
water. We the People have the Power to cripple and destroy, the Power
to change the shape and profile of our land and We the People possess
the Power to cleanse and make new again.
Can we afford to live in America?
It's been a very long time since the government
was of, by and for the people. It has become a Sea of Red Tide in and
to itself. Red Tide is an algae, a parasitic growth that chokes the
ocean of life-giving oxygen, leaving nothing but toxic waste in its
wake. Unfortunately, we just sit here, watching satellite images of the
Red Tide come and go and consume and I bet you, most of us don't even
ask the question, "Is there something I could do?"
Same with the government.
It has become a paracitic growth that chokes
our lives, milks our money and paints us, THE VERY BREAD AND BUTTER OF
ITS EXISTANCE, the bad guys. Hey, Uncle Sam! We're not the bad
guys. We're the guys this place called America is all about. The
People.
CastleRock Texas is about We the People. This
is where the American Dream is still be Lived Out Loud. CastleRock
is a place where community trumps subdivision, where the Little
Guy has the same shots as anybody else ... where it's possible to own a
truly affordable home, to have land enough for a garden, to live more
sustainably, to be more of a part of nature and neighoborhood.
We the People ARE the ocean and the water. We
the People have the Power to change the shape and profile of our land
and to cleanse and make new again.
We CAN afford to live in America and America can afford to live in US.
Come on up and talk to Jaime Townson, President
of CastleRock Marketing. He'll show you just how incredibly affordable
America can be. (New homes from under $100,000 to over a million. You
see, we're all people. We all fit. We're OUTRAGEOUSLY inclusive. If you
breath and you give a Shinola, you're welcome here in CastleRock Texas.)
