Henry David Thoreau said, in his classic essay Civil Disobedience, 'That government is best which governs least.'
How far we've come from any kind of gov which resembles that statement. The American Gov today is an incredibly invasive force. It purports to tell us how to live every aspect of our daily lives. It is Judge, Jury and Savior on every issue. It is our State Religion.
The Separation of Church and State is a joke. The Gov has it's Official Religion: Humanism. And there is no Separation between the State and Humanism.
When we see the levels of corruption rising so fast in the Government, unchecked. Those most responsible for the lies and corruption, escaping justice and walking into the sunset with their Net worth in the hundreds of millions.
Our Foreign Invasions don't seem to be slowing either: There's talk of invading Iran, we're still in Iraq, Afghanistan, we may go into Syria, Venezuela....
Those who profit off these Regime Changes are in Washington, they are financed by globalists, by lobbyists, by wealthy billionaires. They have no desire to keep American soldiers home. They lie on the Campaign trail and tell us they will end 'endless wars' and then vote FOR Invasion when we vote them into office.
When do we reach the point when voting isn't enough? When the tools the Founding Fathers gave us for change aren't effective any longer?
As time goes on, more and more Americans will ask these questions, I think.
How will we answer?
