My Bleak View And What To Do About Going Forward
We are all sinners that will be corrupted by centralized power; it is a spiritual addiction take ruins all if they stay in power long enough. Institutional living and so making one's living badly exacerbates our natural weakness to this temptation. How bad the power lust bites us, and how quickly and pervasively the process of corruption unfolds in the being of each party hack, each bureaucrat and each politician, varies from person to person, but the creeping taint is unstoppable. There is only one solution: for a people to live their lives as coequal, decentralized anarchist individualists.
All politicians, then, to varying degrees, lie, steal, cheat, deceive, abuse power, intentionally over-promise and under-deliver, take bribes, and see themselves as masters of the masses for whom they feel utter contempt. Each politician claims that she will be unique, but the longer she is in power, the more she becomes separated from the masses who are her bosses. The longer she has access to unnecessary, excessive amounts of power, she morphs into being a member of the ruling class. She will seek riches and control beyond what she deserves or merits. Her secret desire is to grow government, pass endless laws and regulations to enslave, spy upon, exploit, oppress, supervise and regulate the private lives of the citizens.
Here is our dilemma, our paradox. On one hand, we must never trust any inherently wicked politician with power despite their howls of protests that this time things will be different, for they are better people and have higher standards than those before them that sold out. They promise and in the beginning may actually believe that they will not turn on the people they serve once they get to Washington.
On the other hand, we must elect someone to lead us. We must have politicians to run things.We must put someone in power and trust with with power, for law, order and civil society do require some formal political framework under which we must all agree to obey its rules and regulations. No matter how decentralized we can, should and must live, we still need some politicians to represent in the communal, state, federal and international levels of government.
There are no guarantees. Still, terms limits, radically decentralized cantons and the elimination of almost all institutional overlays that Progressives have inflicted upon society, are hardware changes that will help.
As anarchist-individuator voters, as very high information voters, deeply informed, highly educated, politically engaged, and actively supervising each politician, who can never be trusted, and who require constant, tight supervision and instruction, we all accept that we will elect them to represent for a term or two. This uneasy, imperfect agreement and truce is our minimalist level of being governed that we settle for. It is our base line. Then the system can be as efficient and honestly run as possible, and theft, fraud, waste and abuse can be minimized.
I hope and pray the President Obama does not declare himself king. I believe the wicked Democrats would stand back and be fine with his illegal power grabs and one-man legislating, as long as he imposed upon the people, his one-party, radical Marxist agenda with the state everywhere and running everything. he is their creature and is doing exactly what they want him to do. "Nice" Amy Klobuchar and "Now Nice" Al Franken have voted with Obama with almost perfect records of saying yes. They need to be booted out.
Then Boehner, McConnell and McCain talk and act Conservative just to get reelected, and then are come out as the despicable creatures that they actually are: craven, Rino betrayers that allow Obama to run amok and install his Affordable Care Act and spend borrowed money with wanton abandon. This whole outfit needs to be fired.
