“The race card” the final arrow in the government’s quiver! With the government losing credibility by printing FERNs like they are going out of style. Racial equality moves to the forefront. Although I don’t believe that race should ever be an issue in life it seems the shameless US Government will use race when it sees a crisis in its credibility. The world is looking for a savior, but the savior they are being handed is an big government insider! Sorry Obama supporters, that’s how I see it.
I hate to burst more bubbles in peoples brains. Obama being touted as a savior could in reality be just more of the same. Obama could be the savior for the establishment who will be able to maintain control just long enough to get through this on-going economic crisis. Obama’s solutions are sophisticated and intelligent enough that he could make things better. Unfortunately the other bubble besides the housing bubble that needs to be burst is the one that says that Obama is going to change Washington so that it truly benefits all of us. Although I don’t question his good intentions, I am a bit skeptical of his values and the implications of his “do good” government philosophy.
The Democratic philosophy is such that Democrats actually believe that government is the cure to all of societies ills. In these times of economic uncertainty my worry is that citizens are constantly looking to government to solve their problems. Although I believe in having a social safety net in place it is extremely important that government be constrained. Obama seems to miss the essential element that will keep government from running amok. That is real money which will foster truly free markets. The current credit based monetary system that involves central planning on a grand scale, will only contribute to furthering of the inevitable. That being the failure of the United States itself.
I fear that government is not there to enforce economic justice or justice in general against the growing number of fascists in the world. Because of its over-arching authority corruption is endemic and is growing in our governing bodies. This is because of one of the Democratic parties underlying assumptions is that government is the answer to many of the problems. When in actuality government it is the root-cause of many of them. A better way to constrain government power is to have the government to police itself.
So… how do you create a system where government polices itself? The answer is an economic system based on the use of “real money” not “credit”. Our government was formed with the idea of a separation of powers. This separation is really at the heart of why real money must be re-introduced to our governing bodies. Lately you can see how the credit based system has created bubbles. Huge trade imbalances with China and Japan that distort reality. It even invades our sense of right and wrong. This is at the heart of why we must return to real money. Of course we need government and we need a social safety net. However, we also need to have constraints on government spending. Without this constraint in place we will continue on with the creation of huge bubbles. Bubbles of thought, bubbles of philosophy, bubbles of ideology, bubbles of economy, and most frightening of all… bubbles of socialism.
When these bubbles burst they explode leaving the ideology of justice, liberty and freedom behind. Instead of personal responsibility we allow our hopes to be absorbed by an all encompassing huge bubble that has been deliberately created in our government. As that bubble bursts we must be there with the correct ideology we must demand justice and fight for freedom. We must unplug the bubble maker. It may seem difficult to imagine, but it could be as easy as simply pulling the plug. But with the human fascination with bubbles being as it is, we cannot allow our judgment to be clouded by new bubbles that are being created by the machine itself. My personal fear is that Obama could be just another bubble created by the machine that is distracting us from the real solution which is at the plug.
