The powers that run everything are not going to downsize/reform government EVER. Have they ever since you have been alive? It is how they fleece us. The Fed loans money to the gubmint at interest rates we are not allowed to know. The principal is never paid, only the interest. If the gubmint doesn’t spend then the FED can’t lend at unknown interest rates. The wheels on the bus go round and round.
The FED will never be audited. The powers have intentionally dumbed down Americans so they can’t think independently and realize how bad they are getting screwed.
They keep us all wrapped around the axle with race, ethnicity, gender and financial wars so we cannot mount a counter offensive.
They appear to give us a choice to vote for every four years. It is only the appearance of a CHOICE. This exercise in futility is to work out the aggressions in the underclasses so we don’t march down Pennsylvania with pitchforks and tar buckets. But post election we are expected to settle down, be quiet, accept the person placed in the office and pay the taxation without representation.
I basically agree with all of that. I just truly believe Ted Cruz thinks more like you and me than most politicians and truly does want to downsize government. The idea of shrinking government is a very specific philosophy that does not come naturally, it has to be taught and learned. It’s not a value that Trump has ever suggested that he holds. He’s talked about making some random cuts, but he doesn’t have that driving philosophy of shrinking government that Cruz does and Reagan did. Difference between Cruz and Reagan, Cruz will have a better shot at getting a GOP Congress to go along with him than Reagan did with a Democrat Congress.
