Amen...
I have begun a study of the French Revolution. The powers that be, the King, his court, the nobility and the church were kicked out by the people.
There were but a few strong voices like Ted Cruz and Sarah Palin, and Dr Ben Carson and Rush, and Levin that accomplished the revolution. The result was terrible, extremist overkill that eliminated the original voices.
They had no internet but they had pamphlets and hand bills printed up instantly from many many small presses. The message got out, around the strong central control.
In America, today, the quality of life is much better than in France. We do not go hungry. Women don’t stand in line forever for bread. We have a long way to go down before those conditions are present here.
Ah, but Perception is reality. The Divisive and Cruel tactics used by the left convince the folks that they can provide the basics of life to them at nominal costs or effort if they just cede the appropriate powers to the ruling elite. After all, they know what’s best for you better than you do.
It doesn’t take a majority to control the folks, just a ruthless few to make an example of just a couple who do not comply.
Don’t you feel the temperature rising? A Rational, reasonable, and logical debate can no longer be had. I hear my Conservative counterparts reaching fever pitch levels to match that of the ‘Progressives’ and it makes me very sad.
Always remember Voltaire’s words....
