Where Have All the Cowboys Gone?
What made this country great was and is the individual being allowed to use his/her God given freedom to explore, expand, and experiment to find a way. The American spirit is the can do attitude. Never give up, never stop trying, never say die: These are the phrases that built this country and allowed humanity to raise its collective standard of living while increasing world wide economic growth. The American Cowboy, the American Solder, the American Hero, the American Entrepreneur: these are the people that fueled the engine of prosperity and freedom.
Skateboarders are the Cowboys of the 21st century:
Never say die, never give up, never stop, take a chance, try again, get up off of the ground and go get ‘em. Yes, there are others: young strong adventurous risk taking youth that are the future of American excellence, but for now I will use the skaters as my example. If we do not suppress their intrinsic desire to be better, stronger, faster, and adventurous we will have a great future. Unfortunately the tendency of our country is leading towards suppressing the American go-get-em attitude. We are gearing up for mediocrity and decline through our schools and in our collective defeatist brainwash. We need to harness this energy and direct it, praise it, use it for good, not suppress it, blame it, and shut it down. We should be teaching our energetic youth to believe in the American traditional culture and how it is good, and quit teaching them that we are the evil of the world. It’s not an accident that many of our kids are self-destructive and defeatist; we are choking our youth!

Think of the possibilities for our Country, if we can grow and cultivate this determination, this drive, this devotion, this heart!

Reckless? Yes, but:
How many Americans died winning the West? How many Americans died trying to invent, create, and grow their wealth? How many Americans have given their lives to keep our country free? Reckless? Yes, but maybe we need a little more recklessness to keep our country moving and growing which, despite conventional collectivist wisdom, I believe is a good thing for humanity.
