The Socialist Democrats have it right, there are two Americas. The America that works and the America that doesn’t. The America that contributes and the America that doesn’t. It’s not the simpleton Alinskyite drivel of the “haves” verses the “have nots,” it’s the accomplished verses the unaccomplished. The simple truth is there are Americans who do their duty, obey the law, support themselves, contribute to society, and others who don’t. That’s the divide in America. It’s not about income inequality, at all, it’s about civic irresponsibility.
It’s about a political
party incessantly preaching hatred, greed and victimization in order to win
elective office. It’s about a political party that loves power more than
it loves its country. It’s about a party that has now taken to employing
the apparatus of the State (government) to do its bidding and we have allowed
it!
That’s not an invective,
it’s the truth, and it’s about time someone said it.
The politics of envy was
on display when the sitting Socialist-of-the-Chair (SOTC) pledged the rest of
his term would be dedicated to fighting “income inequality.” He and his
administrative State have noted some people make more than others, some people
have higher incomes than others, and he says that’s unjust. This is the
rationale for thievery it is the rationale of all Socialists. The
other guy has it, you want it and the SOTC will steal it for you using the
auspices of the State to take it. Vote Democrat (socialism). Who said the syndicate was dead?
This is the same
philosophy that produced Detroit and all the other islands of socialism dotting
the landscape from Boston to Los Angeles from Miami to Seattle. It is a
philosophy that is methodically transforming the nation while destroying the
political and economic foundations of this country. The liberty-based systems that once defined
this great nation and made it exceptional are slowly but systematically
disappearing because ‘We the People’
are allowing it.
It is an electoral
philosophy that is destroying America. It is an electoral philosophy that
surreptitiously laundries (redistributes) taxpayer’s dollars through
legislative actions that selectively fund groups and programs in the name of
compassion and other rationalizations. It is an electoral philosophy
whose purpose is anything but compassion – the real purpose of this philosophy
is the acquisition, maintenance, consolidation and extension of political power
with the ultimate aim of establishing a one-party State in America. It is
an electoral philosophy that attempts to purposely deceive the American people
by manipulating them toward a fundamental deviation from American values and
common sense. It is an electoral philosophy that does not benefit those
it says it will but betrays both the nation and the people as a whole.
Socialist Democrats have
not empowered their followers; they have enslaved them to a culture of
dependence and entitlement, of victimhood and anger instead of ability and
hope. By making them dependent they have established themselves as the
despotic ruling class who benefits most, all the while, using the “masses” as
little more than a means.
The SOTC’s premise – is
little more than a repackaging of a tired old philosophy, as old as time itself
and always part of the despots drive to consolidate power unto himself or his
party (faction). It is the trite socialist (statist) argument that you
reduce income inequality by debasing the successful. What happens is that
socialist tyranny and control seeks to deny both the successful and the
unsuccessful the consequences of their choices (actions and ideas).
The socialists does not
understand basic economics 101: income variations are the direct result of the
choices we all make and the efforts we put into our actions that lead to
different consequences or outcomes. It
is human actions that produce different outcomes.
For example, in a
liberty-base system, those who choose wisely and responsibility have a far greater
likelihood of success, than those who choose foolishly and irresponsibly.
Success and failure generally manifest themselves in personal and family
income. If one chooses to drop out of high school or to skip
college, then they are more apt to have a different outcome than someone who
gets a diploma and pushes on with purposeful education. If one
chooses to have children out of wedlock, then life is apt to take another
course for both the person making the choice and, unfortunately, for their
children. Generally speaking if one chooses to have their children within
the frame work of the little platoon (marriage) then life is apt to take
another course for the person making that choice and their’ children.
The station one obtains
in life is directly determined by the decisions made along the way. It is
important for people to understand the relationship between effort and reward
(outcome). For example within a liberty-based system, a doctor
(professional) makes far more than the average Joe. That is, there is
income inequality between the doctor and the average Joe based on the effort
each individual put into their profession or job. An inequality of outcome is reflective of an inequality of effort.
While the doctor went to college and devoted his young adulthood to medical
school and residency, the average Joe might be satisfied to have worked in a
warehouse. The doctor made a choice, the person going to work in a
warehouse made a choice, and it is this choice leading to different outcomes.
The doctor’s outcome (reward) pays a lot better than the warehouseman’s outcome
and there is nothing wrong with the choice made by either of these
individuals. The reward-effort
catallactics define a true market place.
Are we to begrudge the
doctor for his choices? Did the doctor cheat to arrive at his/her level
of reward and is it right for the sitting SOTC and his comrades to take away
(steal) his wealth? Is it the job of the
State to isolate, smear, vilify and then destroy the doctor because of his human
actions?
In a liberty-based
system, the answer is absolutely NOT! In a free society, it is the
choices we make combined with our effort that ultimately define the reward
(outcome) we earn and enjoy.
But it is not inequality
that the sitting SOTC and his faction intends to take away, it is the
liberty-based systems gifted to us from our forefathers and mothers.
These systems were paid for by our ancestors and it is they who made the
America we grew up in possible, not the socialist. We enjoy freedom and
the remaining vestiges of liberty-based systems because our parents stood up,
fought and earned it for themselves and they passed them on to us for safe
keeping and protection.
Given the
current situation, ‘We the People’
apparently do not want to uphold, defend and earn that same America for our
children. I say that because apparently we suffer from a lack of
conviction, as a people, we are willing to allow the long march into a thousand
years of darkness to commence on our watch without so much as a word or a
whimper. We sit back as we watch with our own eyes a tyrant, a thug
socialist and his party of thugs deliberately stifle and destroy our nation and
its liberty-based systems.
We have apparently lost
our convictions and if that is true then we are, indeed, condemning our progeny
to that long march into the darkness. In effect, we are betraying our
ancestors, our heritage and all they fought and gifted to us. Worst of
all, we are betraying our legacy, our children and children’s children.
With our lack of effort politically and economically, we are condemning them to
a despotic socialist State rather than the liberty-based systems they deserve.
In America, we have
always had the freedom to succeed and the freedom to fail; but apparently, we
have chosen failure as the preferred option.
The pursuit of happiness
(i.e., freedom to choice and act) means nothing in the face of State-based
coercion and compulsion. The heavy hand of the State destroys not only
freedom but choice and ultimately any form of happiness in society. The
man who sits at home drawing a check from the State is equally as “happy,”
perhaps more so, as the engineer who is paying 60 percent of his income to some
form of government (local, state and federal) to fund the man sitting at home
doing nothing.
The socialist Democrat
who preaches equality of outcome as a right demonstrates his/her total and
complete ignorance of the relationship between effort and reward and the
liberty-based systems that makes this catallactic possible. And in their
ignorance, they have sought to manipulate the masses into believing this
ignorance (using envy) and convincing the masses to follow them down the path
to ruination and socialist poverty, for that is where all socialist schemes end
up. Socialism is the darkest of philosophies leaving in its wake a
tradition of death, destruction and poverty. Its rudiments flow directly
from the desire for totalitarian control by the State over the individual - be
it monarchic or socialistic in nature.
Unfortunately, the nation
has forgotten the sowing principle, “you
reap what you sow, more than you sow and later than you sow.”
The socialists or
statists has always sought to destroy that principle through vain deceits
(lies) using legislative mechanisms and the promises of a future utopia.
In the United States of America, they have been trying systematically to
destroy the successful for over a century through the electoral philosophy of
socialism by relentlessly empowering the punishing hand of the State. They
have destroyed the relationship between effort and reward, they have worn down
the convictions of a majority of Americas and the nation’s obedience to the
sowing principle is all but forgotten. In its place, we have the new
godhead of the State where entitlement has replaced effort, confusion has
replaced conviction and socialism has destroyed the principle of sowing and
reaping.
The SOTC and his party
have waged a highly successful war against the nation, its people and the
liberty-based systems gifted to us. They seek to make American just
another outpost of despotism where the State can be used as the despots see
fit, openly punishing the successful and productive to foster some utopian
mythology under the rubric of “equality” and their “visionary leadership.”
The SOTC and his party
keep telling us there are two Americas and they are correct because they have
fostered this segregation, just like their predecessors and “Democrat” brethren
- the Ku Klux Klan, fascists, syndicalists and communists. They have successfully
employed the apparatus of the State to seize power and now they are using it as
a means of perpetuating themselves in power and at the same time create the
disparity they so conveniently exploit. The government of the United
States is being administered by political gangsters and bullies. The
government under this regime is the most corrupt institution on the face of the
earth.
At present, the
government of the United States systematically and purposely employs tax
dollars taken from the productive (givers) to purchase the votes of the
takers. ‘We the people’ are not
divided by the differences in our outcomes or incomes, we are divided by a
corrupt government and ruling class who are engaged in marketing
(propagandizing) a false philosophy of despotic socialism through deceitful
means with the purpose of destroying liberty-based systems while installing
their state-based (socialist) systems. Understand, this is a government
(Administrative State) under the administration of an avoid Alinskyite
socialist and socialist party.
In a liberty-based system
people are honestly divided by the difference in their efforts and choices
within the market; in a state-based system the masses are arbitrarily divided
based on the decisions of some deceitful despot and the bureaucrats loyal to
him or the State. It is a travesty, no a tragedy, for the government of
the United States to be used in an effort to market (propagandize) and
implementation a false philosophy which maintains that one man’s success is the
direct result of the victimization of another. It is pure ignorance, it
is pure socialism and it is un-American.
What the SOTC and his
party offer is not a solution at all; what they seek is a means to carry out
and implement a wholesale discrimination sanctioned through (or under the cover
of) some “legislative” action. They seek the authoritarian power to
openly discriminate against one group while rewarding another. They seek
the power to arbitrarily apply the law as they see fit, they do not want to be
hindered by some antiquated document - like the Constitution - or held
accountable by another faction they disagree with. They seek totalitarian
control so they may steal (confiscate) from one group and give it to another in
order to purchase votes. They do not seek a democratic solution, far from
it; for what they truly seek is “their solution.” Their solution is
absolute political power.
The SOTC as a community
organizers and agitator is doing his job - he is fomenting division, strife and
confusion so he and his minions can more easily bring about more confusion and
a further fragmentation of the society pitting Americans against each another
for the socialist's own aggrandizement. This fragmentation allows
them to buy off (pick off) different groups in their drive to consolidate
power. This is what the SOTC and his minions offer the nation – a
totalitarian vision of order. What is most frightening is that they are
now in control of the levers of State power.
The great deception is
that the utopian promises they espouse are pure mythology, what they seek – is
the Marxist class warfare that empowers their despotic leader (dictatorship),
despotic administrators (ruling class) and their miserable despotic party.
Two Americas?
Absolutely, it is a reality, it is a reality because ‘We the People’ have allowed it to happen, we have allowed our
nation to be overrun by the enemy, and yes they are our enemy, and they (this
socialist faction) have managed to get elected and re-elected (consolidate
their power) based on these failed promises of utopianism because they are
constantly engaged in an unrelenting campaign of blaming the failure of these
programs and schemes on liberty-based systems and individuals. These campaigns are designed to wear down the
people by producing frustration with the “polarization” in Washington or
division among the people. If only they
(the socialists) did not have to deal with this uninformed, backward faction of
people who actually believe in the Bible and the Constitution, all would be
utopia, all would work seamlessly.
The question becomes,
have we gone too far? That is, have we
Americans lost our will and our conviction to uphold, defend and gift to our
children and our children’s children the liberty-based, God-centered systems
gifted to us? Or are we simply going to fold our tents and join the long
march into the darkness in a total betrayal of our past and a condemnation of
our progeny?
