Today Joseph Robinette Biden gave a speech and said the government shouldn’t be telling us what to do with our lives.
Of course after he’s spent about a year and a half trying to determine how to use the government to tell folks how to live their lives.
The inconsistency isn’t lost on us.
But he isn’t the only one.
There are many other elected officials that lack consistency too.
Simply words don’t match actions.
And the risk of this increases when voters vote based on politicians statements on specific issues rather than on principle.
We need to understand the VALUES of our elected officials.
What they say on this or that isn’t enough.
We need to understand how they will handle all of the issues.
And we have to watch them and make sure they are consistent.
If more people were watching more politicians on values and consistency we’d be in a really different place today.
