“Government is Inherently Good”?!!

Harry Reid (D-NV), Majority Leader of the United States Senate–THE FACE OF BIG GOVERNMENT  (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

The Washington Times recently reported (“Harry Reid:  ‘Government is Inherently Good’”) that,

 

“Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said he can’t understand why the tea party remains popular, given its similarity to the anarchist movement and its steadfast opposition to the ‘inherently good’ government.”

“Inherently good government”?

“Inherently good government”?! 

Are you kidding me?!!

Has Senator Reid lost his mind?  Is he becoming overwhelmed by his sense of guilt?  Or is he merely so ignorant that he doesn’t understand that this country started with the presumption that government was a “necessary evil” wherein the “necessary” was often debatable, but the “evil” was virtually certain?

George Washington implied the inherently wicked nature of government when he said, “Government, like fire, is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.”  Washington surely didn’t see government as “inherently good”.  He saw it as, at best, a dangerous servant.  At best.  Necessary, perhaps.  But always dangerous.

 

Poll: 29% of Registered Voters Believe Armed Revolution Might Be Necessary in Next Few Years

For those of you who think you’re virtually alone in your anti-government sentiments . . . for those of you who think that those of us who want a restoration of liberty are only a tiny minority . . . there’s a recent poll indicating that 29% of the American people believe that a shooting revolution may be required to protect our liberties from our own government.

29% translates into about 90 million Americans who already believe that government has gone too far–and plans to go further–down the road into a police state and overt tyranny.

Thus, 29% of Americans are aware of, or at least sympathetic to, the idea expressed in the Declaration of Independence that “. . . when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”

29%.

We are not alone.  The ideas, attitudes and concerns shared on this blog and hundreds more like it are not only proliferating but are far more common than most people imagine.  We are not the “lunatic fringe”.  We are mainstream and growing stronger.

We are winning.

 

Video Supports “False Flag” Boston Bombing Conspiracy Theory

It takes about 2 minutes for the speaker to get to the meat of this video, but after that, he makes a strong argument.

FBI Created 17 False Flag Terrorist Attacks

According to Judge Andrew Napolitano, in the past 10 years, there’ve been 20 Terrorist plots against the US.  Three of those plots were real but were discovered and stopped by private Americans.  The other 17 were created–and then stopped–by the FBI.

The apparent purpose of these false flag operations was to deceive Americans into believing we’re under attack by foreign or domestic terrorists who are fictional.  Based on the false belief that we’re being persistently attacked, Americans tend to accept and even our government’s invasions of foreign countries and our own growing police state.

If you want to fly on an airplane, you must first be x-rayed or groped based, in part, on 17 plots created by the FBI to prove the existence of terrorists who don’t actually exist.

Every government agent–right up to the President–who authorized or participated in such fraudulent terrorist attacks should be tried for treason and, if found guilty, hanged by the neck until dead.

 

Crime Causes Economic Collapse

FINANCIAL CRIMES NOW POSE “THE BIGGEST THREAT” (Photo credit: Renegade98)

At a recent economic conference at the Philadelphia Federal Reserve, academics gathered to discuss fixing the banking system, including ending fractional reserve lending. The video below is an excerpt from that conference featuring the comments of Professor Jeffrey Sachs of Columbia University. A few minutes into the recording, Professor Sachs condemns the banking system saying things like:

“The final problem is separating the politicians from the crooks–but maybe that’s the same community. . . . I believe we have a crisis of values that’s extremely deep. . . . I regard the moral environment on Wall Street as pathological. . . . They are tough, greedy and out of control. . . . We have a corrupt politics to the core. . . . The corruption is everywhere–it’s lead to a sense of impunity. . . . I’ve waited for a judge, a president, somebody to do something–but it’s not going to happen anytime soon.”

 

Democide: Mass Murder by Governments

In the 20th Century, more people were murdered by their own governments than killed by war. Governments don’t buy all those weapons merely to protect the country against foreign invaders. Governments buy those weapons in case the government has to defend itself against its own people.

Cops: America’s Baddest Street Gang?

This video below is infuriating.  It’s a collection of video-shorts on police violence.

But, these video-shorts have been “cherry-picked” to support the contention that the America’s police have become increasingly prone to committing violence against innocent Americans.  And there seems to be no doubt that the cops are dangerous to the people.  But how dangerous?  Is the growing volume of video evidence of police abuse simply the unfortunate result of a plethora of video cameras on the streets that record and post only the very rare instances of police abuse, or are the “pigs” really running wild?

•  Most Americans believe it’s tough being a cop.  Cops are portrayed as working in a dangerous world where they might be shot and killed at any moment by “bad guys”.   And they’re all heroes, of course.  So we need to give ‘em a little latitude whenever they go off the rails. After all, the stress of their highly dangerous profession could drive any of us off the edge from time to time, right?

 

US Homicide Rate A.D. 1885-2012

I received a copy of the following graph by email.  I don’t know who prepared the graph nor can I verify the numbers presented.  However, the evidence “rings true” with me so I assume it’s correct. The implications are fairly obvious and significant:

1) The “wild west”–when virtually everyone had access to firearms–had a much lower homicide rate than was ever seen under any measure of “gun control”.

2) As more guns reenter society under the guise of concealed carry, the homicide rate is declining.

3) Given that the homicide rate is already declining, the government must have an ulterior motive for promoting gun control.  Their current excuses for gun control are lies.

4) Guns save far more lives than they take.
