    Default Colossal Failure of Government

    Colossal Failure of Government

    Saturday, May 16, 2020

    History is an incredible predictor of future events, but it is generally unknown or more often misunderstood. Cinco de Mayo is indicative of this misunderstanding. A lot of Americans think it is the Mexican independence day, but it's not. Cinco de Mayo is the celebration of the victory over the French Navy that arrived to collect the money owed to France, Britain and Spain. The French troops fought a battle in the city of Puebla, where they lost, providing Mexico a cause for celebration, if short-lived.

    Today, we hear of the U.S. and China arguing over money owed in one way or another, to one or the other. A lot of things can start a war, most often it is money. The rise of Hitler was due to the demand for reparations for World War I, when Germany was broke, suffering from a depression and still those owed would not give a reprieve. The resentment caused by this allowed Hitler to build an army.

    Millions of Americans are losing their livelihoods complying with stay-at-home orders. This is happening to the same people who have watched the deep state actors attempt a coup while CNN, MSNBC, CBS, NBC, ABC and the rest cheer on this government corruption, knowing deep down that the same people that stand behind them, also stand behind the petty tyrants occupying governor's mansions. Governors who vindictively impose harsher and more stringent penalties for disobedience. Make no mistake, it is not the ultimate health and well being of the people they are trying to protect, it is their power, their autocratic rule they believe to be in danger.

    The average American is just now trying to digest the reality of the bureaucratic prison they have built for themselves. At the same time, the communists are coming out in force to install their utopia. Never let a crisis go to waste. They are on the cusp of everything they have dreamed of and all it takes is for good people to do nothing, stay at home, obey the rules, fear their power. But the weakness of communism is its inability to understand economics. The true leaders of communism know the economics don't work, but they rely on slogans and faulty assumptions to inspire their minions to revolt. In fact, anyone who does understand economics cannot believe in socialism or communism as anything other than a means to obtain power. This pandemic is not the panacea they think it is, it's the warning shot across the bow to people that would otherwise never see the reality of the situation, an enlightenment of sorts.

    The most important part of this is that there is no need for this to play out in a political way. Blue states don't have to turn red. There are economics at play here that once unleashed cannot be restrained and everyone knows who unleashed them. Blue and red are irrelevant. What is relevant is that the United States Government, state governments, city and county governments are complicit in destroying the lives of many, many more than they have saved. Police forces have revealed their willingness to imprison people for cutting hair and serving food. They have all willingly sought to imprison church goers, whether social distancing, or not. The mistaken belief that "our city council is okay" has been shattered by the truth. It is fear they respond to, not the constitution, not individual rights, not right and wrong, just fear. They will not protect these values on any governmental level. None of this is news to a number of readers, but the point is that it is news to the vast majority of citizens of this prison nation.

    They are starting to see that of the $3 Trillion dollar bill put forth by the Democrats, there was money to pay illegal aliens the same as U.S. citizens (I still believe there is a difference, though many don't). Bailouts for governments that enforced the lockdowns, bankrupted citizens, destroyed their way of life and can no longer pay them their tax-slave wages, so now they want to go behind those people's backs and take it from their savings accounts, by devaluing the dollar to nearly nothing with another bailout. They don't care that someone is bankrupt by their orders, they still want their taxes. What cities don't care about that the average citizen SHOULD, is that whether the taxes come from the city or the county or the nation, there is only ONE source: people with jobs making money. They should be cutting their salaries and jobs to match the demand during a crisis, but they are using those employees to police their demands. Not right, not fair, not American. They can't own up to the fact that they have failed the people, their policies have failed, their budgets will fail and so will their promises to pay public sector pension, in time, after they raid the U.S. Treasury a few more times. Part of their bill included mail-in voting nationwide and the elimination of voter ID laws in every state. You think it isn't going to be a mugging in November?

    This is where there needs to be a distinction between being a United States citizen and an American. These are two completely different things. Americans live in America currently governed by the United States Government. A government, by the way, that has turned its back on the purpose of its creation: to protect the rights of the individual from all threats foreign and domestic. Rights that would have protected those jobs and the economy while calling on the American people to use discretion and common sense to avoid exposure. They have failed every test at every level of government. Soon, when tax receipts dry up, because no one is making a living and the debt has been doubled in less than a year, cities and counties will discover that they can no longer pay the pensions of government retirees and turn to the federal government to bail them out, something it can only do by printing money, which will devalue every dollar in existence, because it is being heaped on the top of debt the nation was unable to service with twice the tax receipts. Cities and counties will have to lay off employees and their purpose will be exposed as a lie as well. The same thing will happen on the federal level. It is a spiral downward during which the American people will have to decide what to do.

    This is the crux of my recent posts. If we decide to scrap this government in favor of one that will be faithful to their oaths, what sort of government will we design? There will be plenty of communists encouraging the dismantlement of our current system and standing in line to promote the death cult of collectivism. Who will stand in opposition? Who will provide an alternative to their anti-capitalist rants? Will any of the national celebrities on the radio do anything other than gab on endlessly under the "new" rules? Will they even be allowed the platforms they currently enjoy?

    The truth is that the 2020 election will not be an election at all, it will likely be a mugging, perhaps even at gunpoint in some locations. Just because it has never been done in America, does not mean that it won't. It has been done in one nation after the another throughout recent history and here it will be championed by the entire media establishment as the greatest achievement of all. But, even if its not and Trump wins another victory, it doesn't change the dynamic that will pull this nation apart. A Trump win might even precipitate it. We are in waters now that can only now be navigated by restructuring...of everything.

    Ask yourself, what does China gain by civil unrest in America?

    Government was NEVER designed to be a benefit to the general population.
    It was designed to benefit the Government and the people that control it.
    The roll of government taught in school turns out to be nothing but propaganda that we, in our ignorance took hook, line and sinker.
    People worship the magic parchment called the Constitution without thoroughly examining it.
    Research who authored it 6 weeks before the Convention.
    What do the proper nouns mean.
    Read ALL the exception clauses.
    RI was the only State to put the vote to the general population and it lost by an 11 to 1 margin.
    All other States voted for it through delegates and committees controlled by the Blood Line Nobility.
    In the first days of the new Congress, it voted to blockade RI to thank them for not voting for the Constitution.
    So. Under duress, RI re-voted in the magic parchment.
    EVERYTHING we were taught has turned out to be a lie.
    Question all your beliefs and you will likely find them to be false.
    In the Legal dictionaries, the word Belief means (in love with).

    We're in the deep end now. Trump has huge support but the dems still control the machine. We caught a break, we got 4 years to prepare. Have you? Because the next 4 are up for grabs, and the when/if the dems get into power they'll be going for broke.
    Europe used to have empires. They were run by emperors.
    Then we had kingdoms. They were run by kings.
    Now we have countries...

    Default The Desire To Control Others Is The Signal Pathology Of The Wicked

    The Desire To Control Others Is The Signal Pathology Of The Wicked

    BY Herschel Smith
    19 hours, 50 minutes ago Courtesy of reader Fred Tippens.

    American Thinker has related thoughts.
    At the Jacobin, an American socialist, Marxist quarterly based in New York, Ben Burgis emphasizes that
    Progressives and democratic socialists need to make the case that there’s a third alternative to business-as-usual centrists running the states Trump wants to ‘liberate’ and the cynical demagogues who want to feed low-income workers to the capitalist death machine by prematurely ending the lockouts
    [ … ]
    The coronavirus has cleared the field for communists. It is an opportune moment for the left in general, but above all, for those who already wield a certain amount of power and want to perpetuate themselves and implant their totalitarian paradise once and for all.
    There is no need to wonder about these things. Governors are taking power to themselves nowhere granted by any state or the federal constitution; rulers unilaterally declare that worshipers cannot gather; stores are shut down, businesses are closed, some forever; cops, working on taxpayer monies, take the time to enter private property without a warrant to harass and lecture people on allowing their children to play with other children; cops arrest surfers, hikers and campers who have paid for the public land they’re on with taxpayer dollars; the elderly are jailed in their facilities to perish, when the safest thing they could have done with them would have been to send them home, or else roll them out into the sun, taken them for a walk, and given them Vitamins C/D3; workers everywhere are told to wear masks so that they re-breath their own effluent and cause the mask itself to be a contaminant trap on both inside and outside surfaces, contributing to their own retrovirus loading because they can’t properly expel their own air; the FedGov prints money like monopoly paper; and communists everywhere want to see the economy fail.
    This is all designed to break the bonds of dependency and love between families and church, cause feelings of isolation, and create dependency on the government. At its root, it is the wicked desire to control other people. The tools of control are loneliness, poverty and isolation. Community becomes government.
    R.J. Rushdoony said this.
    The mainstream of Western civilization is thus apparent, the desire to control and change others as the essence of true power. This lust for power, the pathology of all fallen men, is common to cultures all over the world. It is an expression of man’s original sin, his desire to be as God (“The Death of Meaning”).
    Man’s attempt to supplant himself upon the throne of the universe never ends well.

    Thomas Jefferson is thought to have said that the tree of liberty must be watered from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants...he also suggested that the government should be turned out and trashed every 200 years or so. We're overdue. Prep and pray, the end has arrived.

    There is a lot more to Jeffersons quote that gets overlooked.

    I thought it was 20 years, not 200

    Well, I think more than any other recent President, Trump has indeed attempted to turn and trash the government. He's learning too, give him another 4 years to now take what he's learned and give them hell.


    THE END ISN'T NEAR.........IT'S HERE

    The problem is not global warming – it is moral cooling.
