Happy election day.
I wanted to give my American friends something to ponder as they vote today in the hopes of choosing the so-called "Leader of the Free World".
The fact is, the President of the United States of America is not the leader of the free world in 2024. They aren't even the leader of a free country.
In fact, The United States Government is probably the single most evil entity that has existed in the history of the world.
The country was created based on values that I still identify with.
The United States was founded on the ideal that in order to live in a truly free society, the rights of the individual have to be respected before anything else.
The United States Constitution is the greatest attempt to enshrine the rights of the individual into law.
It was a nation founded by men who felt that the infringements upon their rights, perpetrated by the state, had gone too far.
Behind this lies the insidious truth that the founders realized, the individual needs to be protected from the state.
The reason for that is that since the creation of the nation state, those in power have relentlessly sought to increase that power.
My favorite quote, from the book The Moon is a Harsh Mistress is as follows:
"What I fear most are affirmative actions of sober and well-intentioned men granting to Government the powers to do something that appears to need doing."
Since it's invention, the state has sought not only to justify its existence and the resources that it consumes, but to increase its scope and power and consume and control more of our world.
In the 20th century, we saw the rise of Communism. This structure allowed the state to seize even more resources by controlling the entire economy.
But this came with a big problem. The Government is always terrible at everything.
And so inevitably, these Government managed economies failed spectacularly.
This brings us to the rise of America's home grown version of Communism, central banking.
In the USA, the state allows its cattle to manage and grow their own wealth, only to steal a massive % of that wealth through money printing.
This brand of Communism is uniquely insidious because it masquerades as freedom. This allows the state to pretend some kind of moral righteousness while profoundly undermining the original individualistic intentions of the founding fathers.
If I were American, I'd probably vote for Donald Trump because it would likely be better for my own short term best interests.
I'd also really like to see Ross free.
But you won't vote your way out of this problem.
The choice between two cartoonishly absurd, megalomaniac tyrants makes a mockery of the concept of representative democracy as it was intended.
Couldn’t either side have found someone without any ties to Epstein or Diddy?
The legitimacy of these elites, and the structures that they’ve created is at its end. America, like virtually every other country in the world, is no longer a country that a rational person can take seriously.
The Empire has Fallen.
