‘Civics books say the U.S. is a representative democracy. But the truth is that it´s increasingly becoming a regulatory dictatorship, a trend made clear in a disturbing new report on the scale of federal rules. In his seven years in office, President Obama has signed 895 bills into law. Over the same period, federal regulators issued 24,478 rules. If you want an example of how unaccountable the federal government has become, it doesn´t get much better than that. The regulatory state is so massive that the government doesn´t even know how many regulatory agencies there are…’ Link
Another reason to view the ballot box as a farce, an empty ritual designed to maintain the illusion of participatory democracy.
Update: And this
Trump for President. That said, the contemptible volume of regulations can only be erased. Then start over. Put everything on hold for as long as possible. Clean things out. At the least halt all immigration for ten years. On and on. It will not happen but even the effort is worth the effort.
Even in the best of times with all channels greased there will be a so called “backlash” of various descriptions. Overall, if I can balance my budget ever so often, change the oil and gas up, lock my doors and trust others to do the same, how can it go wrong. Of course as we know if anything can go wrong it will and I was once told it would get worse before it gets better and it is worse than that. Regardless, I stand on my own two feet thanks to a lot of help and patience. Got to believe America can also, just needs the trash swept up.
We need American Revolution 2.0 and start all over again – and the good news is that if Trump is elected the little Leftist dweebs aren’t going accept a Republican dominated federal government – Like the Southern slave owners and Bluebloods of 1860 they will rise in bloody civil war.
…AND THEY WILL BE CRUSHED!
A state of revolutionary war is perfect time to take a meat axe at the federal bureaucracy and chop it into tiny little pieces, purge the body politic of traitors, and give the Muslims the bums’ rush to the door.
…And when the dust settles, the declaration of a strict nationalistic Commonwealth for at least ten years – and once the SS United States is made ship shape and Bristol fashion, declare the Second Republic under the original constitution of 1789 with bill of rights – and a few other amendments like a term limit for two terms for all federal politicians, etc.
GOP Establishment Preparing for a Brokered Convention Behind Closed Doors

LOL. Hey, I can’t keep up with the master of this place.
Reagan’s election was electrifying. After that it was a choice of mediocrity or treason. The total uselessness and feebleness of Boehner & co. after The Great Republican Victory of 2014 made it all clear – Reagan was a fluke, the last flicker of what had been a great experiment. What’s happening in Syria now and what happened in Libya before are examples of U.S. covert war that is unconstitutional and one giant middle finger to representative government. It’s our flag on the planes but it might as well be that of Goldman Sachs.
Same with minorities, immigration and free speech and FOI. GFY!
Ridiculous public expense and debt levels screaming “critical failure imminent”? GFY.
It doesn’t matter what actions the GOP Establishment takes to “Stop Trump” — it ain’t gonna work! Trump already has the majority of votes and “The Big Mo”!!!
…and as I predicted last summer – if the Republican Elite couldn’t stop him by Christmas – as they clearly haven’t, his popularity keeps increasing – Trump would win the nomination and the presidency in 2016.
If the GOP Elite stops Trump at the Republican Convention by some chicken shit parliamentary bullshit – Trump goes independent and wins the election that way.
So one way or another Trump will be President of the United States barring assassination….and then God help the Progressives because – thanks to Obama taking a chain saw to the forests of law in America – he will have the power of a dictator.
Always remember that a CEO of a large company is a dictator without the color of law – and Trump has had decades of dictator training and successfully built a business empire worth billions.
Also Trump makes deals by bending over the other guy and making them like it.
“It’s our flag on the planes but it might as well be that of Goldman Sachs.”
Exactly.
And won’t it be a great thing to be able to vote for a genuine Reaganesque Conservative in Ted Cruz just one more time before the whole thing collapses?
