Dysfunction, Cowardice, Hypocrisy: America Would be Better Served with no Federal Government
Some quotes to think about.
“The worst evils which mankind has
ever had to endure were inflicted by bad governments”. Ludwig von Mises
“In all history there is no war
which was not hatched by the governments, the governments alone, independent of
the interests of the people, to whom war is always pernicious even when
successful.” Leo Tolstoy
What is happening in Washington
today is unforgivable and extremely dangerous. Nazis are defiling our White
House. Musk and his puppet, Donald Trump,
are undoing our nation. Instead of improving the lives of all Americans and
making our nation safer, they are accomplishing the opposite.
Why do we need a federal
government? Taxpayers spend hundreds of millions of dollars each year paying on
a small group of American citizen’s lives of luxury and privilege. Why? All
three branches are corrupt and dysfunctional. The incompetence in Washington
would result in abject failure in any other corporation in our nation. Yes, I
said “any other corporation.” The United States has become a business,
controlled by 756 oligarchs/billionaires. It is no longer a country with lofty
and respected goals.
There are 12 nations which no
longer have a central government. This was both surprising and exciting for me
to learn.
Every working man and woman, every
senior on a fixed income, should join me in my distrust of anyone with power
over us in the 21st century. Our current government, the military,
law enforcement, and even the priests, ministers, Rabbis, and Imams in our
religions seek power and wealth. Nothing about America in the 21st
century is as it seems.
Trump wears the title of our
military’s “Commander-in-Chief.” His actions over the last 15 days are a slap
in the face to the more than 400,000 Americans who lost their lives in WWII, a
war with one purpose: defeat fascism and save the world from the tyranny of
autocratic rule. This is exactly what Trump and Musk are attempting today: the
end of democracy and therefore the end of the United States of America.
Call your Senators and
Representatives and demand action: don’t ask. It’s time “not to be nice.”
(Excuse the Patrick Swayze reference). Remember, “you are America.” Our nation’s
people, not buildings, or public edifices to the undeserving compose the United
States.
The dream of our Founding Fathers
did not involve physical structures dedicated to superiority, power, or wealth.
They believed what they wrote: “All men are created equal.”
Trump and Musk do not agree with
this statement.
However, Trump is not moving our
nation in the wrong direction: it is an oligarch, a South African who has hold
of the reigns. Elon Musk is an ambitious and evil man. It is he who has assumed
the presidency. Once again, Trump is the puppet and this time Musk is pulling
the strings.
Want proof that we don’t need a
government? Your co-presidents are the enemy: Congress and the Supreme Court
are your enemies: the military supports your illegitimate president, and are
therefore the enemy: all law enforcement agencies are fascist, and therefore
our enemies. The truth is, there is no one with power over us who can be
trusted.
When our Founding Fathers created
a Democratic Republic, the intent was forming a government which would serve
the needs of the people. For more than 40 years those in Washington have failed
their responsibilities. If our government no longer serves a purpose, it is an
unnecessary evil.
Unfortunately, without strong
allies, we, the people have no power. We are a necessary annoyance who are now
expected to serve the co-dictators.
Don’t give up the fight: freedom
is the only reason we exist. Without free thought, and the freedom to act as we
please without harming others, there is no reason to live. I know that I will
never serve another man. As Patrick Henry said: “Give me Liberty or Give me
Death.”
