Government cannot be fixed by anyone, anywhere

By Donna Walker Mancini

“Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it everywhere, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedies.” - Groucho Marx

Enough has been said about the government being corrupt and dishonest. It has become a cliché. Many people focus on one aspect of the government or the other. Currently the war is a hot topic for discussion, bureaucrats thinking the “system” (read government) could work if their group of folks were in charge. Then, “We the People” could ride off into the sunset and live happily ever after! I have no such interest or faith in trying to fix an evil system.

We need to dismantle about ninety-nine percent of the system, the sooner the better, and return to doing things ourselves.

Alas, government cannot be fixed because it is a system of force and plunder. A system which denies that human beings are unique individuals who have independent wills and minds of their own with different likes and dislikes. That is fact and should be celebrated; as it is the way we were made. Who am I, or anyone else for that matter, to try to change the natural scheme of things, also known as: Reality!

Our arrogant central planners are psychopathic control freaks! They are human aberrations; they are the worst of the worst. In matters of government, just as in a stagnant pond, the scum rises to the top! Only an abnormal, insecure, power-hungry nut, without a real life of their own, would want to try to run the lives of millions of total strangers. Normal people get tired of taking care of even their own children in time and want them to grow up, get a job, earn some money and become self sufficient. Normal happy people want to live, laugh and love, and see others do the same!

Government nannies have orgasms taking care of dependent crybabies; thus, keeping people frightened, feeling inadequate and needy. Government representatives want to be above you, not on an equal level as an adult with you! They want to lord power over you. They do not want to sell you their product, like sellers in the marketplace. Government wants to force you to obey their rules and buy their “services.” In my opinion, this is not a quality of a nice and well-balanced person. That is a bully, a thug who has a deep-rooted inferiority complex and harbors anger and bitterness at the rest of the world for perceived injustices.

All human beings who worship “authority,” on the ground or in the sky, are irresponsible, lazy and refuse to accept reality, in my humble opinion. They are the problem and not the solution in the world today and everyday.

Anyone with even a handful of brain cells can see that you cannot make anyone do anything “successfully” nor should you even try! It is the height of arrogance to assume you know what is good for another person.

Anyone whose memory is functioning well enough to know what happened even yesterday knows that government “solutions” always backfire and make matters worse.

I have lived 56 years and have seen government programs and “solutions” destroy public education, medical care, the family unit, the monetary system, the retirement system, and lives of many of our children via the ghastly wars, at home and abroad, just to name a few!

Why is the answer to the basic “problems” of mankind always more tax money and more bureaucrats, alias MORE GOVERNMENT? It is not obvious that the government doesn’t work?

Surely people are not really this stupid; after all they know how to program the clicker and their cell phones.

Maybe it has nothing to do with stupidity. Maybe they just don’t care.

Maybe they just want to eat, drink and be merry; and, like little children let someone else think for them and take care of things.

Maybe the sleeping masses, otherwise known as “society,” wants an omnipotent Parent and an evil Scapegoat.

Heavenly God and Earthly Government…

The answer to everything: Bombs AWAY!
