The State Loves you

This 2 year old child is chained to a lamp post while his father works, as a (unlicensed richshaw cyclist in Bejijing. His mother is disabled an collects rubbish at the roadside. His father says he must do this to prevent his child from being stolen. Two months ago his 4 year old daughter was stolen.
He doesn't live in the right province to qualify for child care, he only makes f4.50 per day.

"I don't even have a picture of my daughter to use for a missing-person poster. I cannot lose my son as well"













This image and the story that goes with it breaks your heart. If you have children or love children and know the special bond between parents and children, you can imagine what it must be like to be in this position.

In China the state controls where you can live, how many children you can have, how much money you can make, when and if you will receive health care or child care. The profits of a hard working productive people goes to the state and a few rich elite. God Bless America and the freedom we have. Don't let anyone tell you that the state loves your family and knows what's best for them better than you. Pray for our nation and it's future.
2 Chronicles 7:14
