ENDING POLITICAL CORRUPTION AS WE KNOW IT
The Moral Mandate to Renew Public Service
Politics in the United States are based on forms developed by the Founding Fathers,
which made it possible for them to exercise social control. The mass political parties of the modern era are not based on expressing the will of the people, as much as they are based around exercising what historically has
been called "party discipline," which means compelling the masses to conform and comply with what political deal-makers have arranged in smoke-filled rooms. Any educated person who has a real grasp of history -- which
means that they have a genuine classic education -- can
appreciate the fact that there has never been an actual opposition in the United States.
There is the APPEARANCE of opposition. There is the illusion of opposition in the permanent two-party system, but in real terms the very
idea of a permanent two-party system betrays the logic of allowing a political opposition, because permanency itself allows for agencies to fix things by collusion. The strongest evidence of the self-serving agendas of the Democratic
and the Republican Parties can be seen in their blatant efforts to slant ballot access laws, to create artificial statuses, like Majority VS. Minority Party status. It doesn't matter if a new party better embraces popular sentiments;
it doesn't matter because they will never be given a free opportunity to compete on the merits of their ideas, because the major political parties have hog-tied the process.
The entire idea of popular support as it is expressed by electoral
victory fails to relate the real nature of this kind of "support," which is ephemeral at best. Like a movie star, loved one moment and vilified the next, politicians are celebrities that are useful to the system, but who usually
wind up as sorry, pathetic has-beens, whose memories are trotted out every time politicians as a class are exposed as the spineless wretches they truly are. An excellent example is the meteoric rise of a politician who had been
dismissed as a rabble-rousing demagogue: Vice-President Dick Nixon. He had his first big break as a witch-hunter for McCarthy, but that was largely overshadowed by his election to the presidency, and his re-election in one of the
biggest landslides of US electoral history. But then the Watergate tapes led to his downfall, and the collapse of his "Public Support" overnight!
Much has been written about the checks and balances of the Federal Government, but few see any checks or balances on a system that annihilated people at Waco, Texas, or the teenager and his mother at Ruby Ridge, Idaho, and then lied,
and tried to cover it all up. Who knows if anyone would have heard anything about Ruby Ridge, had the Federal Building NOT been blown up in Oklahoma City. It forced the issue, an issue which the popular
media was more than willing to let rest. Structurally, there is nothing opposing any agency of the local, state or federal governments; the bureaucrats of these
agencies are effectively able to pursue any course of action they decide upon, and they have no end of resources with which to do so. The bureaucrats use the money of the taxpayers, to investigate the taxpayers.
The state of emergency and martial law declared in Oklahoma City, in the aftermath of the April, 1995, bombing was not for the benefit of the people there, it was for the benefit of the BUREAUCRACY, which had classified and secret documents stored there, on
investigations of American citizens in Oklahoma, which they did not want exposed. The same is true of every federal and state building: The IRS is targeting tax avoiders; the ATF is targeting people for making unlicensed liquor, or
selling illegal weapons; the Secret Service (SS) is targeting counterfeiters; the DEA is targeting everyone connected with "illegal drugs"; the FBI is targeting everyone else suspected of committing crimes. The only problem is that
in the wide sweeps of these agencies, they also deliberately set people up who are perceived of as opposing the agendas of these various agencies. Genuine opposition, that would actually cause CHANGE, is annihilated. Only SAFE
"opposition" is allowed, that can be manipulated by pressure, so that ultimately, it is not opposition at all, except in name. This nominal opposition, such as the opposition of the Democrats to the Republicans, is a game to enthrall
the masses, who never see the real bi-partisan mechanics that keep the rusty relic of the republic lurching forward.
No one will argue more vehemently that there is a difference between the
Republican and the Democratic Parties, than a
party member. They are convinced that the
only difference between a Conservative or a Liberal,
is whether one supports a Capital Gains Tax or not. The partisans of the
two major parties get involved in some of the sleaziest, time consuming,
money consuming worthless exercises of self-deception ever seen under the
sun. The only thing they seem to agree on is that we better keep the current
system, because it is the "best" in the world: Of course, they don't
acknowledge that their opinions might be deemed biased and self-serving,
since their lifestyles are supported through their support of the political
system. It's easy for someone who comes and goes by limousine to blame the
working class, or the poor, for being whiney. The partisans conveniently
ignore the rigorous black-balling they engage in, to destroy the promise
of anyone who does not agree with their two-party monopoly of power over
a single-system/two-party government, the republic, that is nothing short of a totalitarian
police state.
No one is allowed to voice any opinions that defy the flawed
logic that underlies domestic policies. The media shuts out the voices of
anyone who has a better idea. To the media, the status quo is always
best. (But of course, if you confront a member
of the media, he or she will always say, "I disagree, I think we do a pretty
good job covering the news objectively...") When opinions get through, as
sometimes they do -- even with the "journalistic standard" of sifting the "news"
to exclude un-approved personalities -- such as opposition to
the DRACONIAN drug laws, the person who dared utter them
is ridiculed and vilified, even if a few years later, they turn out to be
correct. (Then, of course, none of the big-mouths in the media have the courage or good
manners to apologize).
Americans like to attribute their freedom to the Constitution, but this
attribution is wholly wrong. The freedom of the American people
derives of ancient customs that are so strong
that the Government is unable to disturb them, for
fear of the wrath of the people. The written US Constitution
of 1787 is nothing other than the operating charter of the Federal Government;
it does not contain a SINGLE WORD that pertains
to the rights or freedom of the American people. The only reason that it
has not been repudiated entirely by the people is because it appears to operate
according to the Principles of Law that are unique to nations that share
in their origins the unwritten British constitution. The unwritten British
constitution, in its entirety, remains as the foundation of the American
legal system; it has given rise to an unwritten American version of the British
constitution, as the womb within which all legal proceedings take place today.
Furthermore, it is not limited to embracing the written Constitution of the
republic. Within the unwritten ancient constitution, there is the authority
to restore the traditional legal institutions, as they have been known since
antiquity.
In order for an opposition movement to be authentic, it must be royalist
in its aims. The biggest limitation on any political party is the Constitution
itself, and the offices it creates. NO president will EVER be able to counter
the force of the powerful bureaucracies. The institutions lie, cheat and
murder to perpetuate themselves, but inevitably, the more they violate the fundamental
moral standards of common decency, the less desireable they become to the passive citizen.
There comes a moment when a man looks up and he thinks to himself that
he must live with himself. That he cannot go on any longer accomodating
evil. There is a moment in a person's life, a defining moment, when doing
right is rewarding all by itself.
There are Americans now who cannot and
will not go on allowing the Federal Government to be deemed a legal or legitimate
institution, who want to see it legally and peacefully retired, to be succeeded
by another government, a decent government. Today, there exists the Federal
Republic of the United States of America. The aim of the Opposition is to
legally and non-violently conclude the Republic, in order to inaugurate the
Kingdom of the United States of America, under a constitutional monarchy,
with a parliamentarian system of representation. This is a REAL change, a
change that cannot be manipulated by the BELTWAY INSIDERS
of Washington, DC, which is why they HATE the
idea from the get-go. As the last chances for revival of the republic are
exhausted, and its internal corruption finally causes it to explode from
within, the ancient kingdom shall give the nation a causeway out of disaster.
The Kingdom is the only promise the nation has of ever having a legal system
of government, that upholds the ancient human rights of the people, above
those of General Motors.
