It was in all seriousness I wrote some five years ago of the coming “Hoovervilles” once more to America. At the time I wrote about this I recalled the Economics professor many years ago who told me it wasn’t like Herbert Hoover got up one morning, looked out his window at the White House and said to himself, “My, it looks like a nice day to ruin the country.”
Well, it didn’t take prescience on my part to consider the coming ruin of America; a lot of us university types of the maverick persuasion involved with brainstorming the problems besetting our nation recognized the familiar patterns of history and knew America could not possibly immunize itself from human nature or the path of all tyrants once they gain power over the masses. But I was, and continue to be one of the few that see not only the coming Hoovervilles once more, but those concentration camps and troops guarding our borders as well. Oh, it isn’t that others don’t see these camps and troops coming but many of them are fearful of addressing the issue. I’m not more courageous than they are; I just don’t have family, fortune, or position to be threatened and as a consequence have a lot less to lose by doing so.
There can be no doubt all of us would be somewhat more settled in our minds if we believed those in our government were in their right minds. But there is little to assure us of this actually being the case; in fact, it would be easier for me to consider them being in the majority lunatics. What other group of people like those 545 having the rule over us anywhere else in the world would fail to be considered incapable of tying their own shoelaces let alone running the affairs of a nation? But in all fairness, our major problem is a collective one in which we appear to have 545 lunatics rather than just one or two calling the shots. As to conspiracies, ah, then it comes to a possible 545 lunatics being the masters of 300 million people unable to deal with the lunatics. Now that would appear to be a well developed conspiracy or just plain crazy!
Don’t you love that part of the film “Independence Day” when the admission is made that reports about Area 51 and hidden flying saucers being a fiction is “not entirely accurate.” What; a conspiracy not only to hide things of such magnitude from the Great Unwashed but from the President? Unthinkable! Well, of course, that part about the President is pretty unthinkable. Unless you factor in someone like Bush, and then you begin to believe his handlers don’t trust him with anything sharper than a rubber ball and Laura ties his shoelaces for him.
But when it comes to conspiracies, of course Tony Blankley reads The Weedpatch Gazette otherwise he wouldn’t be quoting me about the “Promised Fence” along our southern border will not be built because Republicans in Congress want the cheap (slave) labor from Mexico and Democrats want the votes of these slaves. But if Tony had really been paying attention he would have realized I had pointed out in WG the Triumvirate cabal comprised of all 545 members of the ruling class of America want all Americans to be wage slaves, and he never mentioned the Roman Church wants all those good Catholics from Mexico to bolster its numbers and coffers, which have been somewhat depleted since pervert priests are being sued by their victims.
Well, not to give either myself or Tony too much credit this whole thing about a promised fence was typical of the feather merchants in DC, and no one should have taken it seriously from the beginning. As to suggestions of a “conspiracy,” well, telling the story of the wholesale betrayal of America and selling out our nation to the highest bidder by politicians and their corporate bosses intent on globalization for power and profit has been an ongoing refrain by many including me for quite some time.
But rather than tag this betrayal of America as a conspiracy, I’ve taken the tack this bunch betraying our nation are either lunatics or servants of Satan, doing his bidding which would be the destruction of America. From my point of view, America has long been a thorn in Satan’s side since liberty and freedom are antithetical to his diabolical purposes. But then, aren’t these antithetical to all tyrants and despots throughout human history? So, what need of considering Satan when the results are the same whether or not? Well, perhaps because it makes it easier for me to name a specific protagonist rather than spread myself too thin. And, too, even for me it’s difficult to believe all 545 of our masters are in fact lunatics. All of them evil yes, all of them lunatics no.
