2. A Lot Of Young Families That Have Kids - Subscribe To Disney.......

The parents are busy and into trying to make a home for the kids - and the Disney Channel provides them with some relief - when the kids are into watching Disney Programs.

At the same time - it is those young families doing everything to keep up their homes and lifestyles - that keep them away from listening to the news or understanding what's going on politically. They're busy taking their kids to swimming, gymnastics, baseball, hockey, piano and getting them to and from school every day.

At home they are into feeding their kids, going shopping for food and paying their bills.

Bottom line - many families are so busy - that they don't have time to get into politics to see how are elected officials are supposedly taking care of us.

Somehow - those young families need to be made aware of how - on a day to day basis - our elected officials in Washington and even in their own states are working against these young families.

This - Kimmel (First Amendment) Issue - is not in the best interest of these young families.

Do they want their children and grand-children to grow up in the world where all their rights have been usurped? I don't think so.

Bottom line we have to get to these young families and make them understand that they would be doing their children a service - if they cancelled their Disney Channel subscription - cause it would make companies like Disney - not take them for granted and it would hurt those companies financially. It would make those companies think twice about Country over Profits.

I've been trying to do my part to reach many of those young families to help them understand what's going on around them. Those that I have contact with I've been trying to make them see that that they need to become more politically aware and involved - if they want their children to grow up in a country that has Freedoms and a Democracy.

Please - if you know families like what I've described above - do everything possible to get them to understand to pay attention to what's going on in the world around them.

When you begin to see all the financial entities and companies and ties that exist between Disney and their vast empire and how those tentacles reach into people lives….

And all the people who have taken a cut and earn money every second on everyone….
