"The part of our
social order which can or ought to be made a conscious product of human reason is only a small part of all the forces of society"
F A Hayek
Road to Serfdom, Yesterday and Today
The path to a Global Gulag is paved with failed promises and stern submission. The functions of governments change little over time.
Only the intensity of applying current techniques of crowd control evolves for making the task easier to corral the rowdy
into prisons of their minds. Force works because people allow themselves to be intimidated and government stooges are willing
to rejoice in the celebration of human misery. The police state stems from an entitlement of State tyranny, which justifies
its existence based upon an absolutism of authority.
Fear keeps people in chains. Denial maintains
the illusion that the government is worthy of respect and obedience. Self-loathing drives slobs into debasing their own dignity.
Pride in one’s own ignorance spreads the "stuck on stupid" culture. The poverty society grows with
every social welfare program. The FEMA dictatorship gives away doublewide trailers as a way to ease overcrowding in the penitentiaries.
All in the spirit of state worship for the betterment of humanity and the planet.
Does this reality strike a response or are
you so dead that nothing penetrates your own version of pathetic desperation?
Keep your loyalty fresh by recognizing
that your patriotism is often misplaced. Quartering "Red Coats" or rounding up French Quarter Cajuns, the drill
does not change. Disarm the public not just their guns, but more important their will to resist.
Reinhard Blänkner
warns that Absolutism can take different forms.
"Liberals employed the term most effectively,
asserting that an irreconcilable fight raged between two political systems since the American and the French Revolution, a
struggle of absolutism and constitutionalism. In a liberal perception, absolutism was not confined to a single governmental
form. The French Revolution demonstrated that political freedom was threatened not only by monarchical absolutism but also
by democratic absolutism".
Rally 'Round the Flag, Boys!, takes place, not just in Putnam's Landing; but in every hamlet and village. Liaison with the government,
attend every civic meeting and lobby the ranks of all those condescending politicians; but never become a boisterous constituent.
Bodacious Bohemian’s need not apply. Only lock step "sheeple" are suited for advance placement, in
the re-education camps, as jailers for the domestic terrorists. Daniel Hannan’s new book, "
"Barack
Obama born in Kenya? Pah! If anything, he was born in Brussels. The policies his administration is pursuing amount to comprehensive
Europeanisation: European carbon taxes, European foreign policy, European healthcare, European daycare, European disarmament,
European industrial intervention and, inevitably, European unemployment rates.
If there are any Americans reading, I’ve
got some bad news for you. I inhabit your future. As a Member of the European Parliament, I have spent eleven years working
in precisely the kind of system that you seem intent on creating.
I’m not saying that everything in the US is
good and everything in the EU is bad, far from it. It’s just that the aspects of Euro-politics which your rulers seem
most intent on copying are those which have demonstrably failed: the centralisation of power, higher state spending, welfare
dependency, excessive regulation".
British MEP Daniel Hannan quotes Doctor Ron Paul and understands the importance of the constitution
being a living document, watch this video.By living document,
he does not mean that "Black-Robe Tyrants" should pervert the Bill of Rights. Quite to the contrary, while the
current climate now allows, The Government Can Use
GPS to Track Your Moves, Mr. Hannan champions the best that American stands for.
"Government agents can sneak onto your property in the middle of the night, put a GPS
device on the bottom of your car and keep track of everywhere you go. This doesn't violate your Fourth Amendment rights, because
you do not have any reasonable expectation of privacy in your own driveway - and no reasonable expectation that the government
isn't tracking your movements
It is a dangerous decision - one that,
as the dissenting judges warned, could turn America into the sort of totalitarian state imagined by George Orwell".
In another
travesty of justice, an informal hearing (no court stenographer transcribing an official record) in a Rochester courtroom
of a NYS Supreme Court judge, the court exerted judicial extortion upon a town municipality. New York State has home rule, which grants broad home rule powers enabling them to provide services to
their residents and to regulate the quality of life within their jurisdictions. The case in question has a foreign developer
suing the town to grandfather a project that the voters of the district rejected in the last election.
The judge is a tool of the corporatists and a devotee of judicial absolutism.
His disdain for upholding a clear legal standard is outrageous. The proceedings are a sham. The court and attorney costs could
run well over a half a million dollars that might bankrupt the community. The town is economically distressed. It became the
target of commercial avarice, with the assistance of government subsidy. Corporate welfare trumps defending the will of the
residents.
So what is the compelling reason to respect
a legal system that makes it up as you go along? Sacrificing the liberty of citizens is sport in the home of the brave judges.
The weighted scales in favor of a higher authority of despotism, blinds the myth of justice for all. The insignificant local
borough is just another causality in the bigger scheme of regimentation.
When reciting the
Pledge of Allegiance or singing the Star Spangle Banner, recall the words of Barry Goldwater. He spoke to the ages in his acceptance speech for nomination as President back in 1964.
"Now, my fellow Americans, the tide has been running against freedom. Our people have followed false prophets.
We must, and we shall, return to proven ways-- not because they are old, but because they are true. We must, and we shall,
set the tide running again in the cause of freedom. And this party, with its every action, every word, every breath, and every
heartbeat, has but a single resolve, and that is freedom - freedom made orderly for this nation by our constitutional government;
freedom under a government limited by laws of nature and of nature's God; freedom - balanced so that liberty lacking order
will not become the slavery of the prison cell; balanced so that liberty lacking order will not become the license of the
mob and of the jungle . . .
Security from domestic violence, no less than from foreign aggression,
is the most elementary and fundamental purpose of any government, and a government that cannot fulfill that purpose is one
that cannot long command the loyalty of its citizens. History shows us - demonstrates that nothing - nothing prepares the
way for tyranny more than the failure of public officials to keep the streets from bullies and marauders".
Today, the bullies are the government storm troopers of Homeland Security, TSA and TIA. The courts protect the leviathan,
even at the expense of a lower food chain unit of government itself. The new form of the Road to Serfdom transcends the economic-terrorism
that F A Hayek revealed. The real mob consists of the enforcers that punish anyone, who defends the Bill of Rights. Their
jungle resides in the layers of bureaucratic swamps that starve the lowly citizen creatures of the savanna, because they poisoned
the water. The marauders are those who bestow an undying fidelity to a false authority.
Hannan, Paul and Goldwater all share
a correct understanding in the danger of giving aid and support to a profane system of intrusive tyranny that has destroyed
the last semblance of individual liberty. The Totalitarian Collectivism, originally imported
from across the Atlantic is now homegrown. The devalued government that Mr. Hannan cites in the UK, is a monocracy of central
government absolutism. The entire weight of the State is crushing the backs of the serfs.
Where will
the next generation of Goldwater traditionalists and Paulian liberty champions come from? If the Brits can raise a Daniel
Hannan, what is the excuse why America produces only whining cowardly trolls that suck the mother’s milk for crying
victimized infants? Grow up and start fighting or stop babbling God Bless America. The nation deserves better.
