Politicians invariably respond to crises â that in most cases they themselves created â by spawning new government programs, laws and regulations. These, in turn, generate more havoc and poverty, which inspires the politicians to create more programs and the downward spiral repeats itself until the productive sectors of the economy collapse under the collective weight of taxes and other burdens imposed in the name of fairness, equality and do-goodism.
Maybe the brown population is growing because the elites support illegal immigrants and refugees and welfare.
Maybe the white population is decreasing because whites are weak and don't resist immorality, welfare, tyranny, debt, and wars.
What thinking person would ever want to bring up a kid in a police state or in an immoral world where work is punished with taxes and regulations and laziness is rewarded with welfare?
Wow.
Americans scream tyranny is wonderful because the US has always been a police state, but what if the USA used to have freedom and lost it?
If Americans hate freedom then why did Americans fight the British?
If the US was always a police state then why did the founding fathers support free speech, protesting, religious freedom, gun rights, the right to silence, and property rights while opposing warrantless searches, civil forfeiture, torture, and extrajudicial assassinations?
Even if the US never had freedom, does that mean liberty is bad?
Did the USA have curfews, NSA wiretapping, checkpoints, forfeiture, the end to the right to silence, free speech bans, torture, kill lists, no fly lists, searches without warrants, private prisons, mandatory minimums, 3 strikes laws, DNA databases, CISPA, SOPA, NDAA, IMBRA, FBAR, FATCA, TSA groping, secret FISA courts, redlight cameras, license plate readers, and Jade Helm in 1980?
Did Americans have gun bans, business licenses, Social Security numbers, sales, income, or property taxes in 1890?
Were drugs, alcohol, smoking, gambling, and prostitution illegal in 1880?
Living in a police state changes your views.
Those who might have supported the government arresting drug users in the past, now might see this as just more tyranny.
Wow.
Nazis who scream a wall and a trade war will make the USA safe and rich don't sound any different from the Commies who scream that banning guns and raising the minimum wage will make the US secure and wealthy.
Fascists who hate free speech and scream flag burning must be banned don't sound any different from Commies who hate free speech and scream hate speech must be outlawed.
The answer to US problems today is what the USA did to solve problems 100 years ago.
The government is not your daddy. The government is not your mommy.
