A politician is a man who will double cross that bridge when he comes to it.
– Oscar Levant
I have enough money to last me the rest of my life… unless I buy something.
– Jackie Mason
- richer? (keep reading to see why we really should be anywhere from 10 to 100 times richer).
- living in a crime free neighborhood and in a better house or apartment.
- able to spend more time with our family and less at work.
- be employed, if we are unemployed.
- much further ahead with our career and not stuck in a dead end Job.
- less tired and having a better love life.
- much less worried and stressed, and not losing our health!
- more time for exercise, sports, hobbies and leisure.
- a secure retirement nest egg.
If you give me a little of your time and keep an open mind, I'll explain how they're doing it and how to fix it.
Why do I mention keeping an open mind?
In the last decade we have been heavily conditioned by Political Correctness and propaganda into believing that listening to contrary views is wrong, stupid and maybe even immoral or evil.
“All active mass movements strive to interpose a fact-proof screen between the faithful and the realities of the world. ” – Eric Hoffer
"Liberty is the right to live free, not live for free." – Dr. Society
The root of most problems in society is corruption due to too much power, concentrated in too few hands. The solution for government – limit power only to what is absolutely necessary and, even then, divide and balance that limited power. The solution for society – a set of common, proven, foundational ethics, values and principles, based on natural rights and their associated responsibilities/duties, by which individuals govern their behavior. Human beings do not have societal instincts pre-programmed into us, as animals do. We only have the most primitive "fight or flight" mechanism necessary to survive, built in. That lack of total pre-programming, though, allows us free choice. With no built in boundaries, we must choose an external standard.
There are many ways to structure a society but only one way that works to preserve the maximum amount of individual Freedom/Liberty and equality. Our Founders structured our society based on that foundation; that all Human Beings are equally endowed with Natural Rights and their associated responsibilities/duties that go along with rights, by a higher authority (the Creator and Nature) and therefore inalienable and immune from usurpation by any power or authority assembled by human beings such as government.
The people constitute government and they delegate a limited amount of their natural powers to government for the purpose of protecting the people's inherent rights, facilitating the responsibilities/duties associated with those rights, and keeping the people safe and free.
The end [goal] of all Political associations is the preservation of the Natural and imprescriptable [inalienable, unassailable] rights of man; and these rights are liberty, property, security and resistance of oppression." – Thomas Paine "Rights of Man"
The Government is a tool given existence and delegated power by the people. It has no rights and therefore, the government has no authority to grant or deny people's natural rights. The government has only duties, to perform a limited set of tasks – and constraints on infringing, interfering or denying the people's natural rights and their associated responsibilities/duties.
“Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts. ”― Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan
"It is a capital mistake to theorize before one has data. Insensibly, one begins to twist facts to suit theories instead of theories to suit facts." – Sherlock Holmes
Please suspend your belief in Political myths and propaganda about Republicans or Democrats, Liberals or Conservative so that you can take in the data we will be presenting and hopefully adjust your pre-conceptions based on further enlightenment.
Politically, the author has walked in many peoples shoes.
Those of the poor, rich, middle class, religious, atheist, agnostic, Democrat, Republican, Independent, Environmentalist, Liberal, Conservative, Libertarian and more. The author endeavors to understand people's concerns, problems and needs from many points of view and come up with solutions that span the differences.
The author is not presenting an impractical pie in the sky utopia. Rather a concrete way to fix our governmental systems and remove the moral hazards and incentive to corruption they foster.
No Society will ever be perfect but it can be formed to encourage perfection. – Dr. Society
Keep these quotes in mind should you mistakenly think the goal is too difficult.
"What the mind of man can conceive, and believe, the mind of man can achieve." -Napoleon Hill
"Yes we can, if we imagine the so-called "impossible" and make a plan." – Dr. Society
"Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen." – Ralph Waldo Emerson
Many thousands of men gave their lives, and their widows and orphans suffered, as a price to create this society. It is far easier to use the amendment process of the Constitution to take back America than it was to create it with citizen's blood. Let us not let the deterioration continue to the point that we have to bear arms against tyranny as they had to.
Learn and Act before it is too late. Let their sacrifice not be in vain.
