SABOTAGE OF THE SOCIAL CONTRACT

Hello, this is Darrell Castle with today’s Castle Report. This is Friday the 18th day of August in the year of our Lord 2023. I will be talking about the social contract or the agreement between the government and the people that holds the system we call civilization together. I argue today that the social contract has been deliberately damaged or destroyed perhaps permanently and with its destruction comes the destruction of the republic and civilization itself.

What exactly is the social contract between citizens and government? In simplified terms the people, by and through their elected representatives, formulate laws and they agree to abide by those laws. They also agree to pay taxes to the government for physical protection individually and collectively by the government through its agents. The government agrees to force everyone to abide by the laws, not just timid, nice people or those out of favor with the powers that be. My argument today is that the government has so deliberately failed in its obligations that the social contract is no longer valid. In addition to breaking the contract the government has symbolically spit in the faces of the people whom it obviously considers powerless.

The most amazing thing about the allegation I just made is that the people, by a majority, repeatedly vote into office those officials who have just broken the contract and laughed about it. The most recent and perhaps best series of examples comes to us from the state of California. Armed with bear spray which they used to neutralize the already ineffective guards, a group of 50 or more people swarmed a Los Angeles mall and made off with an estimated $100,000 worth of luxury merchandise. The Nordstrom store was at the Topanga Mall in Woodland Hills. Topanga police were on the scene quickly and have numerous “leads” the LAPD said in its statement. There were, however, no arrests and the thieves fled in a probably stolen BMW and other luxury vehicles.

This case is evidence that American society is broken because it has been destroyed by barbaric savages and by that I don’t mean just the thieves. The government, at all levels, refuses to enforce its side of the contract and protect people. This means that the social contract has been abolished so why should we pay taxes anymore or fulfill any part of the contract. The government unilaterally abolished the contract the same way it unilaterally abolished the border. The answer to my question is that the government has more and bigger guns than we do. Perhaps that is why there is a constant effort by government to disarm law abiding citizens but not the criminals.

The American social contract is more binding and extensive than that perhaps of any other country because of the US Constitution, which is supposed to be the supreme law of the land, but now is apparently just a piece of ancient parchment, but I digress so let me continue. The second example comes again from the golden state of California. That state is apparently what the destroyers of civilization have in mind for the rest of us sane people. The federal government built a new federal building in the heart of San Francisco at a cost of hundreds of millions. It is, of course, surrounded by other federal buildings to serve the employees who work in the federal building. This is a typical set up that is found in cities across the country as the feds have been on a campaign to rebuild and update federal structures.

The building in San Francisco is named for former speaker of the house Nancy Pelosi. The difference between the Nancy Pelosi Federal Building and others across the country is that the federal government has directed its San...
