“The Left never gives in, never tires, never wavers, always presses on.”
This article is superficial blah blah BS. This statement is only true if the “Left” is changed to federal bureaucracies. We are being dominated via hyper regulation and surveillance by the technocratic state. All we say is being monitored and if someone puts down something hyperbolic to blow off steam (I’m being nice), that can be used as corroborating evidence against them. The federal register is so voluminous that no one individual can possibly know what’s in it even in their field, and the rules are created by bureaucrats.
We need to get back to the idea of real federalism, ie states rights if not then break up the nation. No more federal police state and big fat regulatory agencies consuming hundreds of billions. States should do most if not all of the policing and most business regulation. If a state wants abortion, let them. We can have prohibition, death sentences for drug dealers in one state and decrimilization of drugs in another. I doubt we will have wild extremes, but we will have more approaches. Citizens will gravitate to what suits them.
Sure we would have wacky states, but the differences between well run and poorly run states would be do great that people would vote with their feet at a rate of double or triple than they do right now.
It's a succinct essay recapping how we got where we are. It's been a slow, incremental journey of 60 or 70 years, but it is accelerating. What do you find to be BS?
