Since the revolt against gods in Sumeria, humans have been on a long and never-ending journey of figuring out how to break down the shackles. How do you be completely free? They would pin down the root cause of tyranny, like gods, demigods, pharoahs, kings and emperors, dictators, and so-called elected officials. However, they still need to figure out as a species the common factor in all those identified foci of tyranny. It is because tyranny never gave up and is not giving up. After every epic failure, all the forces of tyranny and all of its allies picked up the best available weapons to trick us back into the same old. Every time they renamed, rebranded, and repackaged their shit and threw it back on us, telling us that it is fixed now and will work.
They trick us into the insanity of doing the same and expecting different results. Repolishing the same failed institutions of power, control, and tyranny does not make those modern, contemporary, and new. We must realize that trying the same old has never fixed the problem in thousands of years anywhere in the world and will not do so in the future. To successfully end the problem, we must eliminate the same old and build something new from the bottom up. When Columbus rediscovered the new world, it was an exceptional opportunity for humans to build something like that ocean away from outdated systems.
And humans did. They built very Anarchist societies in the new world with minimum influence from the power structure of the same old, and they did miracles. With the help of this newly attained and incredible freedom, they did what was unimaginable and impossible in the old world of slavery. They laid the foundations of an economy from the bottom up that, within the blink of an eye, i.e., within two hundred years, became the most prominent and most affluent economy ever, had the largest and most prosperous middle class ever, and achieved the fastest declines in poverty rate ever. People who virtually started from zero became leaders and role models for the world.
In this society, wealth, creativity, innovation, invention, entrepreneurship, and hard work were incredible within a very short period. America soon became the bastion of freedom and wealth. But, of course, tyranny never gave up. Incredible Infiltration of The US Revolution and freedom movement by British agents was pronounced right from the beginning. Among its leaders were people like Alexander Hamilton, who wanted to import the rotening English system into the New World. Lifetime president, central bank, corruption, centralized power, and every weak and evil feature of the English system were dear to him. These people were unhappy with the Declaration of Independence and started the movement to replace it with another document.
The Articles of Confederation replaced the DOI. Unfortunately, even those were too radical for flag bearers of the system of tyranny. The Continental Congress passed a constitution. It was so tyrannical that virtually no state was ready to rectify it. So, Congress convened again, and ten amendments were added to the Constitution by the Continental Congress. Still, there were many controversies and hesitations. Unfortunately, the Constitution was left open for wildly different interpretations by design. After lengthy discussions, Congress agreed only to take the words’ literal meaning. Still, many loopholes, like the commerce clause, were broadly open to various interpretations. The founders who favored the British system limited themselves to only one target at the moment, got DOI replaced by something more mallow-like Constitution, and left the rest for the future.
The tyrannical minds started working immediately under the leadership of Alexander Hamilton, soon after replacing the DOI with the Constitution. Their top priority was the establishment of the central bank. Without a central bank, the centralization of power, massive corruption, and big government would have been impossible. In short, the founders paved the way to tyranny from the very beginning. As always, the government accumulated a monopoly on massive centralized powers. Soon, the world’s largest and most prosperous economy was burdened and dragged by the ever-growing most prominent government in human history. A government that was supposed to be small and limited acquired all kinds of powers and authority with the help of loopholes in the Constitution or by completely ignoring the Constitution.
There is an unending array of regulations and ever-increasing taxation. There are now thousands of pages of regulation at every level of the government, and you virtually cannot do anything in America without paying taxes on it. Most of the tax money goes into useless, baseless, and endless wars and ever-growing welfare systems. The economy that generated the wealth and creativity capital of the world is increasingly stagnant. More than 20% of generated wealth is ending up dead in government. The Fed is inflating the world’s most prosperous and largest economy and reserve currency by printing incredible amounts. The cost of living is rising while the economy cannot keep up with population growth.
Democracy and choice are limited to two parties: a welfare party and a war party. The party of welfare and the party of warfare does not mean that one party is against welfare and the other is against warfare. Both are 100 percent for warfare and welfare. The only difference is that one party uses welfare to get votes while the other uses warfare. One is supposedly the party of a small government, but the size of the government increases every time it gets in power. The other party is supposed to be the party of “unfortunate people.” Still, it now receives a lot more money from big crony corporations, and corporate welfare increases when it is in power. None of them wants to touch the burning and complicated issues.
So, the focus is mainly on made-up issues like China stealing our wealth by providing us affordable products or all the problems of women are rooted in restrictions on abortions. Identity politics, i.e., divide, conquer, and rule, is the dominating ideology of the day.
