"When the law no longer protects you from the corrupt, but protects the corrupt from you - you know your nation is doomed." --Ayn Rand
Being sick at heart is a terrible thing to be when it is every day, day after day. I am sick at heart watching my country descend into a sort of hellish, and mindless agitation and turmoil. I’m asked to watch and comment on the millions of fellow Americans buying into this mindset of endless tribal wars instigated by those no better than vipers whispering into their ears that America is no longer worthy of their allegiance.
Why is that those in government can be completly ignorant of economics and constitution, incompetent and in constant dereliction of duty with no manner of qualification process or even a clue on what it means to be a representative.
When ALL of your elected and appointed ignore the Constitution and swear in an ineligible usurper, you know your country is doomed.
Kudos to the author - this is short, to the point, and captures it perfectly!
The ones giving the test in an election are the voters. Most voters are either ignorant, easily bribed, apathetic or all three. Thus the people that end up winning elections are no better than the people who elect them.
As a Frenchman once correctly observed, “People get the government they deserve”.
“All grandeur, all power, all subordination to authority rests on the executioner: he is the horror and the bond of human association. Remove this incomprehensible agent from the world and at that very moment order gives way to chaos, thrones topple and society disappears.”
Joseph De Maistre
“,,,Order gives way to Chaos!”
I like That.
We should NOT give in to cynicism while we have the greatest President since Ronald Reagan leading, impervious to the constant attacks upon his character, dishing it back out and making snowflakes cry. Seems the cure to these flakes isn’t Head & Shoulders - it’s plowing through with the truth backed by verifiable facts.
I personally witnessed massive voter fraud in California, now I am in Oregon and they have mandatory mail in ballots ONLY, very,very easy way to cheat vote results.
I do believe there is a lot of voter fraud in the USA. However it has to be close to matter, they can only cheat so much.
“now I am in Oregon and they have mandatory mail in ballots ONLY, “
But before that they had regular voting, and the people themselves voted overwhelmingly for that proposition.
“The U.S. state of Oregon established vote-by-mail as the standard mechanism for voting with Ballot Measure 60, a citizen’s initiative, in 1998. The measure made Oregon the first state in the United States to conduct its elections exclusively by mail. The measure passed on November 3, 1998, by a margin of 69.4% to 30.6%.”
I stand by my assertion.
