Every human hero I ever had sooner or later proved the clay of their feet and fell down – some never to rise again. So I established the one and only infallible hero in time, past, present, and future. My Hero is God in the Person of His Son Jesus the Christ, who as the Son of God stood on the threshold of NOTHING and spoke into existence the entire cosmos and everything in it. After setting in motion everything he set forth an irrevocable rule of successful economy, the rule of sowing and reaping not only on the farm but in every aspect of life, spiritually, physically, mentally and in every other aspect of life. You reap what you sow and if you don’t sow you will not reap. If you want disaster, such as socialism, which involves zero sowing and reaping only what others have sowed, in socialism you will be sowing the wind and you will be reaping the disaster of the whirl wind. Somebody should share this fact with AOC and all the lesser demons of the Democrat Party, but it wouldn’t matter – they will not hear it, for they ignore another truth spoken by my Hero, “If you continue in my Word you will be my disciples and you will know the truth and the truth will make you free”.

Because we are human and thereby fail daily, we need Gods direction and a strong belief in his direction to maintain our principles. Often we start out doing good but then are corrupted by fame, money and prestige. This is the human condition. It is easy to find ourselves putting ourselves first. We need to follow Gods teachings to love your neighbor as yourself.
