ISSUES, ISSUES, ISSUES
Issues, issues, issues, always there are issues. And there never will be a time when there are no issues. However, there are no issues that are as important as the basis upon which America was founded. The basis of Freedom for every individual American is the foundation that the Founders used to restrict the power of the people in government. The Founders knew very well that the people in government could not be believed nor trusted. No matter the intention when entering office they knew that government people are very quickly corrupted by feeling the power of office. They knew that it is an extremely rare individual who has morals strong enough to resist the temptations that come their way on a daily basis. These temptations come in the form of issues. Big issues, little issues, nonsense issues but always issues that government people (all of them) cannot seem to ignore or avoid even when they are not authorized to do anything about them. They will find a way. In the earlier years of the country when their morals, virtues and memories were stronger it was easier for government people to be forced to revert to the Constitution for guidance. The guidance of the Constitution was always for the Freedom of all Americans, equally, without any authorization to allow the government people to take any Freedom, or property from the citizenry, no matter how justifiable the reason. There were enough Founders with strong enough virtues who could overcome most of the requests or demands on the Federal government by citizens as well as by fellow government officials. Those morals, virtue, honesty and protection of Freedom are no longer there as they have been ground into the dirt by ill gotten power (usurped power). A very small percentage (less than 10%) of what the government people do today is authorized in the Constitution.
Government is a scam. It is normally thought that governments are formed for the protection of the citizenry. At least that is what the citizen thinks. The people who are in the government, though they always talk of the benefit to the citizenry, many, if not all have a different beneficiary in mind. Even if their thoughts were honorable at first, their thoughts soon turn to their own individual aggrandizement, re-election being at the top of the list, all at the expense of the citizenry. And the citizenry soon thinks of ways to get the government to give them "free stuff" so this becomes a very cozy affair. Then it is all downhill from there. So, even if government is not a scam to begin with it soon becomes a scam and remains a scam until something major stops it.
The tactics of the people in government are always based on issues and force in order to manipulate the citizenry into supporting the continuation of government evil. An issue comes up and the government people convince the citizenry that it is more important than Freedom. The people are usually duped into allowing the scam. Then a law is made that puts every American under the control of the law that always threatens those who do not comply with viscous fines, incarceration or other evil punishments. All of this because of issues that are often nonsense. All issues are subordinate to Freedom. Government people always speak of a false Freedom when actually they are making the citizenry less Free with every law that is passed. The evil of the people in the Federal government is that they were not authorized to make crime laws. Crime is always local and is in the domain of the cities and the states. It is a power grab, plain and simple, by the criminals in the Federal government. Avoid all issues, they are toxic to Freedom.
