The Good Citizen



 I heard some conservative pundit on talk radio yesterday point out, eloquently, that the American, traditional political model posited that the citizens were the boss, and that the constitutional republic was run from the bottom up. The elected local, state and federal officials ideally--not always--obey and serve their employers the people.

We need to end the Administrative state, the Deep state, and radically downsize big government by wipe out or radically downsize and reduce the clout and scope of influence by whole departments like education, ATF, the FBI.

There is no large, bloated government of huge departments of unelected, lifetime appointments and civil service protection for legions of public employees, oligarchs and experts directing the people, the culture, the public space, and the economy.

The Leftist and Fascist models of governance are where oligarchs and elites of all kinds rely on their institutional rank and status to lord it over the masses, and society is run on a corrupt, inefficient, wasteful, tyrannical model from the top down.

The common people need the say, and the Legislator is to be the most powerful branch of our government. Once we restore our constitutional republic under limited government, and the people are the boss, individuating, anarchist supercitizens, then America will hum like a well-oiled machine.
