Wow, it’s encouraging to see how many people support the Jeffersonian notion of “altering or abolishing” the national government...now we’re getting somewhere!
I started reading your articles this morning and will continue this weekend. Thanks
For those who would like, please join us on air today from 12:00 - 2:00 pm on AM 930, WFDM (or by going to our website www.forgottenmen.com and click “Listen Live”). Also, on the Forgotten Men website, you can join our chat room which is live during the show.
Like I said, I’m encouraged that so many are willing to think outside the box that the two-party system has most locked in. As Dr. Phil is famous for saying; “how’s that working out for you?” Our response must be, if we’re at all intellectually honest, not too well. And then my response on air, along with my co-host Joshua who wrote this piece, is “ok, then let’s get to the business of real change, not the sophomoric change offered by the national campaigns.”
Hope to see many in the chat room today.
It is ironic, that the Federal Government has grown too big for us to effectily alter, and unless we get smart perhaps too big to abolish as well.
Jeffersonian ideas are not well liked by people & governments with dreams of empire. They are consequently quite difficult to defend from the same empires. If we are to decide to take down the Federal Government it will not go down quietly. Indeed with respect to history(1861) we would almost certantly have to device a large number of very clever political tricks & long term political maneuvering designed to trick the gigantic monster into tripping over its own feet.
It is not impossible to slay such a beast, it simply requires we uses its own unwieldy bulk, and incompetendets to our advantage.
