America, the land of the free and the home of the brave, has long been celebrated for its unique blend of freedom, opportunity, and prosperity. From its founding principles to its indomitable spirit, America's greatness has been a source of inspiration for generations. I wanted to remind all Americans some of the key aspects that contribute to the unparalleled greatness of America.
One of the pillars of America's greatness lies in its founding principles and the Constitution. The American perspective deeply values the Constitution as the bedrock of American society. The Founding Fathers crafted a document that emphasized individual rights, limited government, and a system of checks and balances. The First Amendment, in particular, enshrines the freedom of speech, religion, and assembly, allowing Americans to express their opinions without fear of persecution.
America's economic system, based on the principles of capitalism and free enterprise, has been instrumental in fostering innovation, entrepreneurship, and economic growth. The American viewpoint champions the idea that a free market allows individuals to pursue their dreams, create wealth, and achieve prosperity through hard work and innovation. This economic system has attracted people from all over the world, seeking to participate in the American Dream.
Americans emphasize the importance of limited government intervention in individuals' lives. This approach encourages personal responsibility, self-reliance, and a sense of accountability. By allowing individuals to make their own choices and reap the rewards of their efforts, America's unique model empowers its citizens to achieve success on their own terms.
A strong national defense is a cornerstone of the American perspective, ensuring the safety and security of American citizens. The men and women in uniform, who dedicate their lives to protecting the nation, embody the values of courage, sacrifice, and patriotism. The Republican viewpoint celebrates these individuals and their commitment to preserving American freedoms.
Religious freedom has played a pivotal role in shaping the American identity. From the Pilgrims seeking refuge to modern-day believers, the ability to practice one's faith without fear of persecution is central to the American view. This perspective also places importance on traditional moral values that have guided the nation's development, fostering a sense of community and shared purpose.
America's greatness is further underscored by its emphasis on individual liberty and limited regulation. Americans argue that individuals should have the freedom to make decisions about their lives and businesses without excessive government interference. This approach not only encourages innovation but also preserves the unique character of American society.
The United States has long been a melting pot of cultures, where individuals from diverse backgrounds come together to create a vibrant and dynamic society. Americans celebrate legal immigration as a means of enriching the nation's tapestry while maintaining the rule of law. This perspective values the contributions of immigrants who come to America seeking a better life and a chance to contribute to the country's success.
America's commitment to innovation, research, and technological advancement has propelled it to the forefront of global progress. From the space race to medical breakthroughs, American ingenuity has continuously pushed the boundaries of what is possible. Americans believe that fostering an environment that encourages innovation is key to maintaining America's position as a leader on the world stage.
The greatness of America is rooted in its founding principles, economic opportunities, limited government, strong national defense, religious freedom, individual liberty, immigration, and commitment to innovation. These core values have allowed America to flourish as a land of boundless opportunity and freedom.

On 3 February, a Norfolk Southern freight train derailed in East Palestine, Ohio. The train was carrying 11 harmful chemicals including vinyl chloride, butyl acrylate, benzene, ethyl hexyl acrylate and ethylene glycol monobutyl ether. Although these chemicals are known to have detrimental, and sometimes deadly, effects to one's health no one knows what effects they have once they are burned and become a gas as was the case in Palestine. Yet the President and VP have not been there to meet with the residents of this area or give any major announcements and it took the Transportation Secretary a couple of weeks to arrive.

Today's food for thought - would love your thoughts as well :)
Regardless if one agrees with former Governor Mario Cuomo's politics or not, it is worth mentioning that he had done much in his life to be worthy of a bridge or a street to be named after him. Just as anyone of note, who has worked to leave a positive imprint on our State is worthy of such naming. But is the renaming of the Tappan Zee Bridge to be the Mario Cuomo Bridge the right fit? Listen to the podcast as I and Tommy chat about our own feelings on the matter. We would love to have you leave comments or write us at pr@informedny.com to request to be a guest.

All of us know where we were when the Towers were hit. I had friends and co-workers at the World Trade Center that thankfully made it out alive. One co-worker in particular, was a doctor, who stayed to help those injured and in need. He was not alone. Through tragedy and chaos the world came together to help in whatever way they could. And I, like all other Americans, can not thank those enough for their help during our time of need. But is this bill that AOC introduced the right way to thank those who helped. It is designed to give illegal aliens who helped after 9/11 full citizenship. But it has some open language in it that can create problems. Listen to the podcast and then let me know what you think.

The attack at the Pelosi home was a horrific event that can never be tolerated. Sadly this event is not an isolated one as recent history shows other attacks or potential for attacks on the person or name of those in elected office, regardless of their political affiliation. In this episode I ask for prayers to be extended to everyone who has suffered injury to their person or their name as well as giving a broad stroke blueprint on how America can pull itself out of this downward spiral of violence toward one another.

This is part 2 of the discussion on the regulaiton that NYS Supreme Court Judge Ronald Ploetz found invalid.
Learn more on the regulation and hear the primary source documents such as the wording in the Public Health Law, the State bill the regulation is said to have similarities to and more. And then you voice your opinion on whether you would have sided with the position of the Judge or if you believe the regulation was well crafted and a necessary step.
And remember this is a safe place to voice your opinion without anyone judging as this site does not take a position on this issue but rather want to provide some resources so you can think critically on the matter and learn to discuss it in your own words rather than in the narrative of others be that the Governor, Cox or anyone else in between. And remember what Attorney Cox did is what this podcast asks everyone to do - let your voices be heard when you believe something is not right. We at Tell Me What You Really Think believe that all in elected office work hard to craft regulations and legislation that they believe are in the best interest of their constituents but they cannot do it alone. If you disagree with something they have penned let them or others know. Only by working with each other can we create a better world in which to live.
Oh and if you find issue with any of the sources we provide or can give more clarity on the matter please write knowtheissueswithlisavallone@gmail.com and voice your opinion. We are learning just as you are and welcome the chance to elevate our own understanding of the issues at hand.

Its time to educate ourselves more fully on the bills before the State and Federal government and let our voices be heard. After all, we Americans need more than broad stroke concepts with no real meat of the issue for us to digest. I welcome you to be a guest on my podcast by writing me at knowtheissueswithlisavallone@gmail.com
On this podcast I have a guest from Binghamton NY and one from Albany NY. Neither knows who the Representative is who presented the bill nor do they know the political party the person belongs to - they only know the contents of the bill and therefore can only talk on the merits of the bill. It is so important for all Americans to stop the mudslinging or the support or opposition of a bill based on the Party that introduced it. Let's get real conversations going so we can make a more perfect union.
In this podcast we talk about devocalization of pets, free college for senior citizens, and more. Please have a listen.
