In a laudatory piece on the Biden economic policy #NeverTrumper Michael Gerson cautions, between the lines, that Biden must not only propose solutions but also make them work.
Oh sure, writes Reagan administration alum Donald Devine; like anyone in Washington cares about that.
Expecting policies to work may seem an obvious requirement, but my half-century of experience in Washington taught me that this [is] a rare concern among policy experts. The goal in these environs is to spend more money on problems, not to worry about results.
Really? But we have been taught to believe that government only works when the gap-toothed Republicans are replaced by suave educated Democratic experts. What gives?
The answer is given by my simple understanding of government, according to the Einsteinian principle to “make things as simple as possible but no simpler.”
Job One for government is to go to war. It might be war on Nazis or war on Commies. Why? Because that’s what real rulers do. Remember President Clinton regretting that he never went to war? If you can’t find an external enemy, an internal enemy will do.
So what are the Bidenoids doing? They are mobilizing for a global war on climate change and an internal war on “systemic racism.” A two-front war for a warrior president.
As with all wars, from fighting the bloody Brits in 1776 to fighting the bloody Commies in the Cold War, the Biden wars are all about the morality: the immorality of eeevil fossil fuels and the morality of making war on systemic racists.

War against your own economic basis and citizens is not what “go to war” means for the results intended.
It will work to destroy the country, which is their goal.
I sooo loathe these aholes.
You can get elected and re-elected with good campaign promises.
You can control money if you tell people that you need to fix problems.
Actually solving problems works directly against these core principles. Politicians never fix anything. Why would they??
This is precisely what I have observed about the Deep State.
It happens because most of the Media, Bureaucrats, and Leftists have no actual moral principles; most have no significant understanding of history or physical reality.
What they understand is power, wealth, and their never ending desire to fulfill themselves in an endless orgy of meaningless pleasure-seeking. They understand manipulation, cheating, lying, and how to get elected by those methods.
This comes from rejecting God, rejecting moral absolutes, and from a bottomless well of hatred, disgust, and contempt for most Americans in the middle class.
I agree 100% and as much as I despise these evil pricks we must wait as the founders did. They are growing impatient and soon we will have no choice but defend ourselves.
After Biden? There won’t be a country after Biden. We don’t even a functioning country now.
Biden is finishing the job that the Kenyan from Indonesia started.
The Indo-Jamaican takes over when Joe is used up.
Biden is finishing the job that the Woodrow Wilson started. /fixed
