“Beck is the bamsters TRANSPARENCY CZAR .”
That’s it!
I think that old school Hamiltonianism is so associated with traditional morality in the minds of the northeastern establishment that they will never readopt it in an unvarnished form.
However, Hamilton (like Jefferson) saw morality as the purview of civil society, not government.
The typical northeastern GOPer is a "fiscal conservative/social liberal" - and I would argue that Scott Brown has a neohamiltonian quality to him.
My point is that the northeastern establishment was originally "old school Hamiltonian"--in fact, it is their "native" ideology and they were its original champions. Why (and when) do you suppose they abandoned this ideology in the first place, and why do you think they will never readopt it?
What is your opinion of the right populist concept of the Old American Establishment being the people "secretly behind Communism," of the New Deal being the brainchild of Bernard Swope of the US Chamber of Commerce, etc.?
Do you insist that Jeffersonian conservatism is the only true conservatism?
But sure, go ahead and follow these secret society kooks and socialist dorks depopulating the planet to make the world safe for golf courses. Who died and left them to play God? It's not a "theory" this is happening. They convict themselves by their own words, actions, and Malthusian roundtables. It's sad that Deweyite education has dumbed people down to the point they think this is a debate.
No more skeptical posts. It's not a debate.
Secret societies and power cabals pull Obama's puppet strings to impose socialism, population control, and dumbed-down statist education in an immoral, anti-Christian, and criminal conspiracy. The destruction of Christian civilization will lead to worse evils wherever the sick atheist dorks doing it come from originally.
Good grief; I hope that's not directed at me. I was reading about the Illuminati over thirty years ago.
Go back to your TV serfdom and dhimini. Beck is a stooge for the Saudis who are owners in Fox. He and O have the same booses in Riyad.
Beck is all radio DJ entertainment. He gets rich off suckers who think he is making a difference.
Why there is a link connecting such ideas from Thomas Malthus, Social Darwinism, Karl Marx, and progressives in the northeast, sociologists and historians can speculate. Plenty of Californians and Southerners have joined in along the way. Bill Clinton, John Edwards, Jimmy Carter, Al Gore. More of a gradual process of the expansion of Big Goverment ideas. Footnote to Karl Wittfogel, Hannah Arendt, and Norman Cohn.
Obama is certainly also a reflection of the Midwestern Chicago version in part with its own peculiar one-party rule and confusion of realms. There is a point at which progressivist centralized planning, liberal guilt, eco-socialists, and Malthusian Illuminati secret society sociopaths all meet and come together. What links an Obama with a George Soros and other population control freaks are not necessarily the same psychological reasons. How much of the agenda Obama actually understands clearly in his own mind, who knows. But it's not nearly as mundane as just the Hamiltonian tradition of federalist patriarchy.
Beck is brilliant. People who question his patriotism, his motives, etc., are probably jealous of his success. Go, Glenn!!
As a Hamiltonian conservative, I’m still here. Unfortunately, Hamilton has been so misrepresented (thinking of DiLorenzo) that many conservatives do not see him as a conservative.
The entire JBS/palaeolibertarian complex has taken aim at Hamilton and the Federalists (and their Whig and Republican successors), basically blaming contemporary Leftism on them. Thomas Jefferson's strict construction is now the "one true official" Constitutional interpretation.
So, what do you think of abolishing the Fed and replacing it with a bank such as Hamilton created in 1791? Most conservatives today are rabidly anti-bank and so far as I know the only person who advocates this is the nut Lyndon LaRouche (who also considers FDR to be a Hamiltonian hero).
I haven’t really given much thought to abolishing the Fed and replacing it.
So, as a Hamiltonian you don't have the objections to the Fed that so many contemporary conservatives do?
We stopped watching TV news and orchestrated TV talk shows long ago when it become clear 95 percent of it was absolute slanted state run bull sh*t.
Not really. I think they do make mistakes, but the Fed is not the only way to control inflation, and they don’t have a lot of help on the fiscal front.
So much contemporary conservatism is Jeffersonian/Jacksonian/populism (with a little whiff of anti-Semitism now and then) that I often wonder what genuine Hamiltonians think of the Fed.
Of course, I don't think Buchanan's Hamiltonianism extends to the central bank (we all "know" who runs the central banks, don't we? [/sarc]).
I notice though that the "Hamiltonian" Buchanan seems to get along just swimmingly with Jeffersonian palaeolibertarians like DiLorenzo, Rockwell, Sobran, and the JBS. I guess the destruction of Israel outranks all other considerations for some people.
