As Robert Arvay expresses it in today’s American Thinker: “In the George Orwell novel 1984, a scenario is presented in which nations go to war against each other not to win, but simply by agreement, to keep their populations subjugated.”
“It has been suggested that the Democrats and Republicans are doing a version of the same thing, not with military warfare, but politically. While some of their differences are genuine, and some of the conflicts between them are real, there is a tacit agreement between the two major parties that neither side will destroy the other. It is far too important to keep the public distracted while maintaining the power, perquisites, and privileges the ruling class enjoys.”
“Thus it is that both parties make promises they seem never to keep. Power almost never devolves to the people, but rather, instead, it is nearly always the government that gets more of it.”
“Power is a zero-sum game. The more of it the government has, the less of it the people have.” [end]
Which reminds yours truly of something said by the greatest orator since Lincoln, perhaps Churchill, perhaps even as far back as Cicero or maybe even Jesus of Nazareth [sarc] – one, Obama the Clown Prince of Fools, who famously read from the ever-present teleprompter early in his administration, “You cannot hate your government and still love your country”.
Profound as that may be to the smartest man in the room (another one of his empty boasts), who has been wrong about virtually everything in his life, has never been more wrong.
America has always had a corruption problem. Andrew Jackson in 1832 allowed states to force march Indians off their land in order to have his people buy the land and profit from the resources.
The difference now, due to people like Obama the Clown Prince of Fools and his bureaucratic apparatchiks, is that the federal government is in our everyday lives. Now the corruption that affected only a few back before FDR, now affects the total population (think IRS, Obamacare, EPA, DOE, TSA, BATF, the alphabet-soup list goes on, and on, and on). We the People can’t escape or ignore the impact that all government interlopers have on our lives.
Think of any field we operate in; education, business, health, even sports, and the feds are sticking their greedy and grimy hands in it. Why don’t small business start up? Regulations, healthcare, liability. A Christian baker is run out of business over a dust up with a gay couple? Government. Two Christian schools pray before a football game and are told to quit by the association? Government. You feel a lump somewhere and you hesitate to go to your doctor, due to poor health insurance you are forced to buy and can’t afford? Government.
I could go on, but I think you get the drift, and also because over forty percent will still vote for HRC knowing, through common sense, that she’s the worst, and definitely one of the most corrupt people out there.
And with that, on to the rest of Robert Arvay’s piece…
While we argue and bicker among ourselves about whatever events dictate the headlines, we see at most only the tip of the social iceberg – if even that much. Deep down in the basements and bowels of the government, the dirty deals are made, the crimes are committed, and corruption flourishes unabated.
Perhaps for the first time in history, some of the curtains have momentarily been pushed aside, if only a tiny bit. We have caught a glimpse of just how vile and devious those in power have become. It should be no surprise to us. For many years we have witnessed men of modest means get elected to office and then, after a brief stint, become millionaires – and not from their salaries.
Along comes Donald Trump, and for the first time in decades, the establishment feels truly threatened, both Democrats and Republicans alike. They now face a common enemy, a wrecking ball who, if elected, will not follow the rules of decorum and appeasement, but will actually do what the people demand. He promises secure borders, safer streets, foreign policy that serves the nation, and a free-market economy instead of the increasingly socialist one that stifles growth and costs jobs.
It remains to be seen whether this uncouth, boorish egomaniac can wrest power from the kleptocrats who rule over us. Maybe he is not the ideal man for the job – but he is all we have.
Even if Trump fails, the revolution has already begun. It may falter and sputter, and in the end, it may never find the Reaganesque leader we dream of. Then again, maybe we don’t need one.[end]
The following video currently has over 19 million combined views and proves that Donald Trump never aspired to be president. For him it was always going to be a step down, yet he has been hoping for 30 years that a strong leader would emerge who would save this country from its leftward drift. He finally accepted the fact that, “If it is to be, it is up to me.”
