The Coming Global Administrative State

Western bureaucracies have spewed to the public the belief that the administrative state safeguards liberal democracies. Good-willed and law-abiding citizens who have traditionally viewed the state as a rather benign, albeit necessary evil, have accepted this belief.

The state exists as a “social safety net,” we have been told for about eight decades now. That assertion began to turn sinister – indicative of things to come in democratic governments – after WWII, with the infiltration of Marxist fifth columnists into the governments of Western democracies.

Westerners have taken comfort in the mistaken idea that the state creates social/political cohesion and a high standard of living. In reality, the administrative state is a colossal bureaucratic machine that feeds itself by expanding infinitely, if left unchecked.

The high standards of living that Westerners have come to enjoy are the result, not of bloated government programs, rather the conscientious exercise of free will by individual persons. This means personal responsibility, creativity and ingenuity.

The Covid-19 authoritarian government mandates have drastically altered people’s trust in governmental institutions, thus creating permanent distrust and disdain for the administrative state.

Around the world, level-headed people of goodwill have given up on institutions like the CDC, federal, state and local governmental bodies, and the World Health Organization.

Most “administrators” are non-essential, excepting to themselves and their fiefdoms. Interestingly to consider during the pandemonium of this Davos-Gates-China-19 pandemic how many actually non-essential government and media types declared that so many individuals in society were "non-essential."

The true revolution will come as we recognize that so much of government is non-essential for most of a populace.

Bureaucracies are an essential element of dictatorships. Bureaucracies allow the creation of laws by unelected and unaccountable individuals, which is a primary feature of all psychopathic governments.

The one flaw in this arrangement for tyrants surfaces when people realize that they have no legal or political means to remove unelected bureaucratic tyrants and must resort to summary tactics to cancel them.
