Destructive Movements

There are a lot of destructive and racist things happening in our country today.  Some of them are:

 ·       Critical Race Theory – Teaching kids to hate their country and that skin color makes a difference is totally racist.

 ·       Systemic Racism – This is ludicrous as all the data shows the US is the least racist country in the world.  That is why people want to come here.

 ·       White Supremacists – Sure they exist, but are small, unorganized groups that pose little threat.  Immigrants of color know this is a lie or they wouldn’t want to come.

·       Black Lives Matter – BLM is a Marxist organization that does not give a damn about black lives. They are paid domestic terrorists.

·       ANTIFA - This is another paid domestic terrorist group.

·       Defund the Police – Stupid statistically unfounded movement that promotes crime.

·       Bail reform – Puts dangerous people back on the street to commit more felonies

·       Liberal Prosecutors – Not prosecuting criminals sends a message that crime is okay.

·       Open Boarders – Promotes crime, drugs, human traducing, sex trafficking, child abuse, sex abuse, disease, and hurts wages for lower income people of all races.

·       Political correctness and banning hate speech – Just an excuse to take away freedom of speech.  

·       Unequal justice – Conservatives are vilified and framed while the political elite of the left are never charged with anything.

·       January 6^th Investigation – This is an attempt to condemn President Trump and his supporters.  The evidence now shows the potential crimes were committed by the Left, House Speaker Pelosi, the FBI, and the Capital Police

·       Rewriting history – This is a typical Marxist tactic.  The 1619 Project is a great example to totally rewrite history in order to show the United States as a racist country.

·       Cancel Culture – This is another tool to take away our freedoms.  People lose their jobs or are ostracized socially if they don’t agree with the Left’s political agenda.

·       Climate Change – There is zero scientific proof that man can control or has affected the climate.  It is a political tool to promote a globalist economy, grow government, and redistribute wealth.

·       WOKE – This is an awakening to social or racial injustice.  It is mainly white liberal idiots trying to act informed or cool while actually being neither. American corporations are blowing WOKE smoke to cover anti-American globalism.

 “Your children’s children will live under communism, You Americans are so gullible. No, you won’t accept communism outright; but we will keep feeding you small doses of socialism until you will finally wake up and find you already have Communism.

“Government is not the solution to the problem: Government is the problem.” – Ronald Reagan Inaugural Address, January 20, 1981

         From the Founding Fathers to Donald Trump, it was clear the greatest threat to the survival of this great republic was a large federal government. 

       When Donald Trump mentioned draining the swamp it scared all the Washington DC establishment of both parties and all the bureaucrats. They could lose their power. 

        When are we going to take the power away from DC and give it back to the people?

Bureaucrat Power

         On Sunday, February 19, 2012 I posted “Government Regulations and Bureaucrats.”  Almost a decade later it is still relevant and even more critical to our future. 

 

I had to laugh at a TV news piece covering an incident where a schoolteacher or school administrator made the decision the lunch packed for a child was not healthy.  The mother had packed what sounded like a healthy lunch. 

The lunch included a turkey sandwich and several other

things that sounded healthy to me.  The child then purchased a school lunch, which included chicken nuggets.  How are chicken nuggets better than a turkey sandwich?  

It is ridiculous that a schoolteacher or school administrator had the authority to make this decision.  It was ridiculous that an incident like this made national news for several days.  But, maybe it is not so ridiculous.  Maybe this should make us aware of how easy we can lose our personal freedoms.  Sometimes we are not even aware we are losing our freedoms until it is too late. 

This incident points out in a very clear way the dangers of growing government and government regulations.  It also points out the dangers of giving low-level bureaucrats too much power. 

There is a saying, “Power Corrupts.”  Even if this is not true, power can go bureaucrat’s head.  I also feel there may be a tendency for some bureaucrats to justify their job and power.

 

Here is an example on local bureaucrats from my book, How to Find the right Business for You!

 

Once in a previous life, I was in the construction business.  When we would design a large project we would intentionally remove a couple obvious things from the plans before we submitted the plans to the appropriate planning and zoning department. 

        For example, we would remove a required sidewalk along the street from the plans.  The zoning commission could then tell us to add the sidewalk.  By leaving a couple obvious things like the sidewalk for the planning commission to find, they could do their job and everyone was happy. 

          The sidewalk was always on the master plans, but if we submitted the completed, correct plans, the planning commission would have to find something else wrong to justify their job.

It is ridiculous that we have to play games like this to work with local bureaucrats.  Unfortunately, that is the way things are today with government and business. 

As government grows larger and larger, our personal freedoms become more and more restricted.   It is easy to ignore this trend because many of these changes may not affect us personally.

The danger is that one day, expanding government will affect YOU personally, and then it will be too late.  You will have lost some of your freedom.  Get involved now. 

The 10^th Amendment specifically limits to powers of our Federal Government.  We should start to observe it, before it is too late.

 

Why do we continue to allow government bureaucrats to take away our freedoms?  Are we going to make America great again or become a Marxist country?

Lobbyists

         A couple weeks ago I said we needed to eliminate 75% of the government departments, agencies, bureaucrats, and Congressional aides.  This needs to happen, but let’s not forget about the second biggest industry in Washington DC. 

        This is a major part of the establishment.  Lobbyists wine and dine Congress. They provide free junkets and vacations all over the world.  They play a major part in campaign funding.  Much of it is only borderline legal. 

        Individuals leaving Congress have a golden parachute if they are willing to become a lobbyist, because they have the contacts and access to Congress.  No one who has ever been elected to Congress should ever be allowed to be a lobbyist or be registered as a Foreign Agent.

        Lobbyists are paid by the oligarchs, big money, big tech, labor unions, and the political elite.  The people lobbyists don’t represent are the working American people. 

        Are we going to allow Washington DC to continue to control our lives?
