Democracy is a bad form of government that uses a massive PR campaign to convince us that a candidate should get office because he/she shares the goals and aspirations of the majority of the electorate. What we are seeing playing out in this instance and Wisconsin and elsewhere is that even as bad as Democracy may be, governance by unelected bureaucrats is worse.
The larger government gets (a DEMOCRAT PARTY GOAL), the more removed our elected officials become from the actual role of governing. The faceless bureaucrat managing other bureaucrats takes the written laws and translate them into regulations and semi-decipherable language in the law books and then enforces them.
SIZE MATTERS and in this case of our civil masters, we need to bring them to heel. Large government is almost always incompetent government because they are not spending their own money and as such they fall prey to crooks and flim-flam contractors. It is the very nature of the beast and if we don’t stop it now we will face the whirlwind.
Indeed!
They’ve gotten so fat and full of themselves on our money that they feel they can pass laws telling us how to live our daily lives — very nook and cranny of our being belongs to them now. I guess if we keep letting them, they figure we certainly can’t do it ourselves.
Elites!
Enough!
