The Brink of Chaos

A friend sent me this video which has an Iraq vet talking about the horrible tragedy of unnecessary war.

The enemy is at home This is what patriotism is!

Amen, brother. If only more people would "get it" that "War Is The Health of the State", . . . And Nothing Else Matters.

Like I often say, for all the conspiracy buffs out there; there would be no "preemptive" wars, no 9/11's, no Waco's, no gun-grabbers, no WTO, no UN, no Fed, no IRS, no War on Drugs, no bureaucrats with guns, . . . If only a big enough minority began to openly scoff at the idea that "we NEED government to keep us from the brink of chaos."

The truth is the quite the opposite. Contrary to what culture has been teaching children for 10,000 years : government is what brings us to the brink of chaos. That's what this Vet is talking about. When enough people scoff at the government's supposed "goodness" and "necessity", then we will have soldiers and cops who QUESTION the validity of shooting or imprisoning someone because a POLITICIAN proclaims that this will help the "Greater Good".

In school we were taught that governments have done all these good things, like ending slavery and stopping Hitler. The truth of the matter is that slavery was enabled by democratically-elected government, and Hitler was enabled by democratically-elected government. Not the other way around. We are taught to believe the reverse of the truth. The enemy is in our hearts and heads!

There's something we need to investigate more than 9/11. There's something we need to research more than Obama's birth certificate. There's something we need to audit more than the Federal Reserve. There's something we need to uncover more than government and corporate corruption. We need to explore and scrutinize our culture's insistence that society can't work without a command structure to "guide" and "protect" us. We need to uncover the connection between our childish belief in "might makes right" and the Tyranny of Democracy.

Democracy is not the same as good governance, let alone a good society.

Mistaking democracy for the good life

It doesn't take a majority to popularize an idea.

Love your country, NOT your government.
