COVID-19 PROVES COLLECTIVISM IS A UTOPIAN MYTH

During this COVID-19 pandemic, one must notice the stark contrast of ideology, playing out in society. More than just the antagonism between those that love Trump, or hate Trump, more than just the socialists versus the free marketers, more than just the Democrats and Republican divide, we are experiencing the “BRAVE NEW WORLD” experiment, as the social sea changes overnight.

We have all become “savages” as we face a mystical world, where playgrounds designed for a city’s trove of rambunctious joyful children, sit eerily quiet. A new world where waves, bows, nods and winks have become the new salutation. A suspicious world, where strangers ringing the doorbell, cause panic, and uneasy curiosity, as to whom might be invaded one’s cone of viral protection. A dystopian world, where fear and freedom collide like emotional ions, to form a paralytic reaction of inaction, which leaves all Americans once living life with liberty, now caught in a societal puzzle. 

COVID-19 is an unseen killer, indiscriminate in infecting its victims, and rendering our future interactions in society as a people, extinct. We know we will be experiencing a new normal, once the immediate danger passes. Close talkers and those that wish to hug without asking, will be asked to back away, as we step back. Spitting at someone might be re-considered by state legislatures and changed to battery, rather than simple assault, as it currently is most states, with exceptions for spitting on police officers.  

 Moreover, this virus portends to be the tipping point of change that might finally bring the world back, to healthy, sane and reasonable interactions, while finally erasing leftist myths. 

In essence, all that the left has been preaching about, demanding and desiring when it comes to altering society is back on the table for discussion. Everything from using mass transit, to promoting unisex bathrooms, to redefining family values is about to be re-evaluated, by a society in fear of intimate interactions with strangers.

Gathering in large groups is currently being banned and forbidden, because of a microscopic virus, yet this COVID-19 germ is not an isolated threat. Many other viruses and bacteria are just itching to conquer our anti-bacterial and anti-viral medication treatments and seek to become a pandemic killer. Indeed, medical science has been warning for years against the overuse of anti-viral and antibiotics, that creates antibiotic-resistant strains of germs free to ravage our bodies and rendering vaccines useless.

Once again, although we live in a modern world, sometimes the “Savage” old fashioned ways of keeping healthy, such as washing hands, coughing into our inner elbows, turning our heads to the ground when sneezing, and staying home from work, not going out to dinner at a restaurant or to a party with an illness, is societal respectful thing to do.

One should be able to socialize without drooling all over one another other, but some public places take away the space to be healthy. Airlines have been packing people up like sardines and taking away travelers space for 30 years. Sports arenas have become food mosh pits or should we say nosh pits. So many people chomping down food and bumping their elbow into your nacho cheese fries, whenever a run is scored, can be, well, very unpleasant indeed.  

The good news is that it might make all these public catering travel companies and event operators, compete for your privacy and comfort in the future. Now wouldn’t that be refreshing? Airline seats spaced further apart with flip up side panels to couch you from neighbor to the left and right. Stadiums could do the same, and concessions might just marry the old peanuts throwing concession, to a food order app and a seat running track, that allows your gourmet hot dog to be delivered right to you, without missing a pitch.

Well, using the public restrooms anywhere, but especially at stadiums, would still need to be solved. Because these horse trough open urinals in public men’s rooms are an intrusion of privacy for men, and for women with young boys. Yes most good Moms take their very young and naive male children into the woman’s room. I never did understand why men’s public restrooms, aren’t afforded the same privacy as women. However, I’ll let others try and solve that cesspool of both germs and pervert potential.     

  

If this virus shows the American people anything dispositive and concretely realistic, it shows that government is not a god, nor a panacea of salvation. Ultimately, consumers should demand that we not be treated as cattle by those that want our business.

While the left has been pushing for an expansion of government power, conservatives and libertarians have been calling that expansion both unconstitutional, and a utopian myth of reliance. COVID-19 reminds us, that as humans dealing with life and death issues, we alone must manage our protection.

Government guidelines are being followed by Americans who already morally understand the need to both protect their families and respect their neighbor’s right to be protected. Individually morality and fear are guiding most Americans to shelter in place and self quarantine if they pose a risk to others, not Big Nanny Government.

In fact, the group of citizens that are ignoring the unspoken code of conduct during the pandemic, have been who? Yes, you guessed it; some of our radical leftist indoctrinated “woke” millennial generation, which has been raised to not practice, what they screech, to the rest of us.

We are learning many lessons during this pandemic. For instance, private cars are safer than public transportation during a viral outbreak. Handshaking and close interaction with strangers has always been a germ passing risky business. The need to shop in brick and mortar businesses is waning because of the ease of ordering your goods online. Politicians (Nancy Pelosi) becoming infused with larger egos and less brain power has also been on vivid display. 

  

Telecommuting or working remotely from home needs to be optimized in a technological society that has the capacity to implement it more broadly. Early socialization of our children in Day Care and Nursery school should be avoided, especially if not necessary. Teaching our children how to cook, has become a lost art and yet a very necessary skill in these times. 

Independent private thinkers, builders, and tinkerers are such an important resource in times that require innovation and re-invention. Indeed, all skilled trades over professorial propaganda is needed during times of crises, because those that can actually repair, fix or retrofit a solution to a problem, become more prized, than an eloquent thesis paper, on the sex lives of gnats.

Yes, we are learning why our borders are important. We are learning why manufacturing our necessary consumer products at home, is essential. We are discovering that our past political leadership, left us ill prepared to face domestic crises. We are witnessing the ever important need to protect our Bill of Rights especially the 2^nd Amendment.

The left continues to try and destroy our Constitution, and the protections it affords to every individual, by ceding more and more control to government. In these times especially, we see politicians misusing their power to score political favoritism and it should both frighten us, more than this virus, as well as awaken our renewed efforts, to stop leftist ideology from diminishing America’s unique protection of individual rights.

“Everyone belongs to everyone else.” (Brave New World Aldous Huxley)

The left’s ideology of “We are the world” globalism, political correctness, and social justice, believe in this collective sense of society, which renders the individual and individuality, obsolete.

However, patriotic Americans know our Constitution wasn’t designed to destroy individuality, in order to form “a more perfect union” but rather, to “secure the blessings of liberty” for Americans and future generations.

THE NATION IS NOT DIVIDED, IT IS UNDER LEFTIST ASSAULT

The people that hate Trump talk about his style, but not his policies. The people that hate Trump invoke fake media stories, (Charlottesville, Virginia), to call him racists, but fall short of using the truth as their evidence. The people, who hate Trump, completely blame him for the mean spirited political rhetoric in the country, but refuse to acknowledge any wrongdoing, guilt or responsibility for their hate laced words, spoken each and every day.

The people on the left are not just hypocrites they are dangerous agitators, unhinged by the fact, that all their prior dastardly attempts to alter Trump’s popularity among voters, have failed. Many of those on the left are entitled, selfish, spoiled brats, which remind us of the little girl character, Veruca Salt, in Willie Wonka’s Chocolate Factory. 

 They want President Trump removed from office and they “want it now!” 

Worse than just lies, leaks and threats, our American media and the Democrat Party are one echo chamber of propaganda, insisting daily that if you are a supporter of Trump you are; stupid, racists, fascist, unsophisticated, ill-educated, un-refined, boorish, homophobic, Islama-phobic, science deniers, goose-stepping Nazis, dirty, smelly and deplorable Wal-Mart shopping voters.

Without going through the agonizingly long list of leftist crimes, and conduct unbecoming, that is crude and downright treasonous, let’s just say, the left is responsible for all the divisiveness in the country.

It isn’t divisive to want a President that keeps his promises, Trump does. It isn’t bigoted, to want to exclude people into this country that are known criminals, and live off the taxpayers’ expense. It isn’t racist, to know that 4 groups were at Charlottesville Virginia, KKK, ANTIFA, Monument protectors and Monument destroyers, and that Trump defamed the KKK and when asked about the Monument protestors claimed “there were good people on both sides.”.

It isn’t fascist to want American workers to have jobs, and American products to be made in America. It isn’t unsophisticated to understand that violence isn’t a byproduct of a weapon, but rather a cultural and human condition that causes some people to do horrific, evil acts. It isn’t stupid, to understand that American capitalism has lifted the living standard of people and given rise to an upwardly mobile population.  

It isn’t smelly and deplorable to shop at Wal-Mart and love your country. It isn’t ill-educated to shout for justice to be fair and equal, when chanting “Hillary for Prison” in a campaign rally. It isn’t homophobic or trans-phobic to declare that heterosexual marriage and a functional family is the best environment to raise children. It isn’t science denying, to note that there is more that is not known than “settled science”, in the new study of earth’s temperature, and its degrees of fluctuation, let alone the evidence, that man-made activity has caused an alteration, to that unknown natural balance.

 It isn’t Islam-a-phobic to state that terrorism is mostly a product of Muslim extremism. It isn’t unsophisticated or boorish to want America to remain wedded to her Constitution, and not have any of the Bills Of Rights distorted and or usurped by the Federal government.

Finally, it isn’t goose stepping Nazism , to support a President that hits back at his political enemies, that constantly use their media privileges to distort, contort and flat out lie to the American people, instead of reporting facts, truth and honest representations of Trump’s leadership of the country.

The only divisive group in this country, are those that hate America, hate our Constitutional Republic, hate free markets, hate our Judeo-Christian values, hate being required to work hard, hate not being in power, hate the courts that rule based on the Constitution, hate honest politicians, oh and yes, hate President Trump.

America is not divided, it is contending with an ever growing group of malcontents, influenced by our indoctrinating schools, lathered up by media, and harvested by the Democrat party, to support socialism, collectivism, atheism and omnipotent federal control.

Now they have stooped so low as to try and use a viral pandemic, to defame Trump, even though the swamp’s globalism, one-sided trade deals, and over-regulation and taxation, caused the shipping of factories overseas, making America more dependent on nations like China, and therefore, more vulnerable. The fact that China produces most of the world’s Antibiotics is unconscionable. Trump was right; China was ripping off our economy. Moreover, instead of Trump and the Russian hoax, the Democrat’s presidential candidate Joe Biden, is the true Manchurian candidate, who claims China is not our enemy.

   

God help us in the future from these Fabian, Rousseauian, social justice warriors, that have been unleashed by liberals lusting for power, and will create a civil war in our future, if we don’t take heed, to halt the left’s constant anti-American whispers, into ears of our youth. It is time for every American to calmly, civilly, and plainly explain to agitators, why America is a great country. Kindness is the only antidote to hostile ignorance, willful blindness,and a closed mind.  

AMERICAN HIGHER EDUCATION IS BERN-ING

As we approach the 2020 elections and we cast our attention on the Democrat primary, we see the harvest of liberal progressive education, seeded many decades ago, culminating in a “woke”, or should would we say “joke”, generation of misinformed malcontents.

Our liberal college professors have twisted American history, tortured world history and have encouraged America’s youth to be a selfish, short-sighted political militia, armed with combative slogans and belligerent ignorant views. 

Bernie Sanders has captured these walking Robotrons, programmed to be anti-capitalistic, anti-self reliant, anti-religious, anti-business and most significantly anti-American, into his camp of socialist promotion.

It is frightening and yet unsurprising, that America realizes the fruits of years and years of liberal propaganda, indoctrinating our children against patriotism, finally emerge as staunch Bernie Sander’s followers that hold socialism in adoration. It is discouraging to watch a generational assault on our constitutional Republic, by ungrateful and ill-taught bashers of patriotism, seeking to be tucked into bed, by an expansive tyranny of big government.

It is shameful; to see so many leftists, embrace a big government socialist’s slavery, over an individual liberty and self promotional goals. It is horrid, to think that so many Americans are willing to enslave themselves, in a dystopia that kills ambition, while wishing to be a parasite living off the wealthy.

 It however was inevitable, that as Democrats lusted for political power, and reached down lower and lower into the grade school level, to preach their anti-American message, rather than teach, the true information of capitalism versus socialism, that their sinister plot has been exposed.

What is the difference between what Bernie Sanders is preaching, versus the Democrat party and its candidates? Is it an ideological difference? No, there are only two correct answers to define the difference between Bernie’s Communism, and the Democrat’s social welfare, big government handout message.

One, Bernie Sanders is being genuine and honest; earnestly calling out the leftist’s ideology for what it is, while Democrats continue to lie to the American people, claiming their big government plan, isn’t socialism.

Or two, Bernie Sanders knows that the Democrats have been lying to voters for decades in order to harvest their votes and Sanders is using the useful idiots, that the DNC cultivated, in our radical education system, in his desire, to rise in power, and be the new leader of the left.

Both answers are correct and both realities have come to fruition. 

Democrats, and indeed, all politicians, promise the moon, but instead, deliver their bare backsides, to the voting public, once in office. Politicians have their multiple excuses as to why they were unsuccessful delivering these promises, even before they make them. It is a game. It is the game of politics that has been played for centuries, by charlatans and con artists, in order to win elections. 

 

Democrats have been offering big federal government solutions for decades. They have waged a class war against successful businesses and wealthy Americans by blaming the wealthy for stagnant Middle Class wages and poverty. They have preached a moronic economic pie theory of wealth, in which as the rich get richer, (eating more of the static money pie) thereby leaving little money left for everyone else, so the poor gets get poorer, as the money pie gets smaller.

 Not only is this economic metaphor dumb, (okay really dumb), money is not static and its supply is limitless, but it doesn’t apply to capitalism that grows and contracts, depending on entrepreneurship, investment and consumerism. However, their pie theory does fit the Ponzi scheme, called socialism.

Socialism starts out with a lot of other people’s money (big pie) and then as the money is spent, and investment and entrepreneurship dries up, and the only consumer is government, well then yes, the pie in the sky, is all gone. Yes, the poor get poorer, the rich gets poor and chaos follows as the elite bureaucrats hoarding their money, rule with thugs and goons.

Democrats claim shock at Bernie Sanders popularity among their groomed electorate, but this is what they have been incubating in our education system for years. They are not shocked, they are angry, that comrade Senator Bernie Sanders is not couching their socialistic, anti-constitution, anti-capitalism and anti-American rhetoric with spoken lies and denials that Democrats have fooled their voters with for decades.

Democrats believe in systematic destruction of our American society from capitalism to socialism, from States’ Rights to universal Federal control, from a Republic to pure democracy, from sovereignty to globalism, from laws based on the Constitution to laws undoing the Bill of Rights, from a Judeo-Christian culture to an atheistic Hades.

They don’t like Bernie because he is letting the cat out of the bag. Bernie is plainly and honestly bringing the Democrats message out openly to the public. No longer is the DNC able to use talking points to deny their sinister traitorous ideology, Bernie Sanders is their communist socialist poster boy.

The jig is up. The lies have jumped the shark. The slow walk by liberal Democrats to radical leftist ideology has become a lurching leap into the extreme political abyss where independents, moderate Democrats and liberal Republicans and even mainstream liberals, don’t live. Only radicals live in that abyss. Only treacherous coup plotters, live in that abyss. Only a matter of time before the Democrats caught in the cult of communist Bernie, splinter off and form a new party, and we will just have to wait and see if they have learned their lesson.

 

In the meantime however, Americans need to heed Bernie’s message, a vote for him, a vote for any Democrat, is a vote for those, hell-bent, on destroying our nation, and actualizing Nikita Khrushchev threat.

     “We do not have to invade the United States, we will destroy you from within.”

SEPARATION OF POWERS HUNGRY PARTY POLITICS

The separation of powers is a strategic foundation, in our tri-cameral form of Republic. It allows both equality of power, between the branches, and an oversight responsibility, over the others as well.

The Democrat Party apparently has lost its ability to, not only understand our Constitution, but they fail to respect, either the Judiciary or the Executive branch, especially, if Democrats don’t own the power, in all three branches.

The Tenure of office act was a law passed by Congress in 1867 that required the Executive branch to win Senate approval, of the firing of any cabinet position in the White House. In other words, Congress usurped the constitutional powers of a president to fire his cabinet appointees. They reasoned that because the Senate was allowed, per the Constitution to approve of presidential choices, it was unwritten yet implied, that Congress had the right to approve or disapprove any dismissals, by the Executive branch. This liberal progressive seer-like logic interpretation, of our framers words, has led to a number of wayward walks, off our Constitution’s clear path. 

Congress impeached Andrew Johnson over their unconstitutional grab of power, until the Tenor of Office Act was repealed in 1887, however, it wasn’t officially ruled unconstitutional by the Supreme Court, until 1926. (Myers v. United States) 

The Senate had constitutional authority to approve cabinet nominees but no expressed power beyond that, to require a President, to check in with Congress when firing a cabinet officer.

Democrats and Republicans that do not understand the Constitution and infer powers not expressly stated in our Constitution, have been playing fast and loose with Americans rights, creating unconstitutional government bureaucracies (Department of Education) and distorting the power of the majority versus minority, in our three branches of government.

The Trump impeachment by the House of Representatives was a partisan, dangerous and complete political treachery of our system, stepping on the separation of powers, which was expressly designed, to keep the corruption of one branch from infecting all other branches and the country as a whole.

Congress has no authority to suggest that the exercise of executive privilege, by Trump’s cabinet officials to not testify, to an impaneled witch hunting committee, using invalid subpoenas, was, is, or would ever be, an admission of obstruction of Congress. Nor, does the asking by Trump of a foreign leader, (Ukraine Zelensky), to investigate a public statement by a former vice-President (Joe Biden), that he extorted Ukraine’s previous administration, to fire a prosecutor undertaking an investigation, of a company (Burisma) where the vice-President son (Hunter Biden) was receiving inflated financial gain, constitute abuse of power.

The absurdity of the charges actually makes the impeachment of Andrew Johnson based on the Office of Tenure Act, seem more legitimate. 

As Americans watch the impeachment proceedings three things become exceedingly clear and frightfully painful to discover.

One, the complete lack of comprehension on the part of our so-called representatives to understand our Constitution, as exampled in Maxine Waters statement that, “Impeachment is, what Congress says, it is.”

Two, the argument by the House Managers, Schiff and Nadler especially, that Trump officials exercising their rights, granted in the Constitution, to have a judge decide whether they should uphold the Executive branch privilege or submit to Congress’s subpoena to testify, proves guilt on the part of Trump and his administration. Put in other terms, these men have flipped the jurisprudence script to one that reads, you are guilty, until you prove and protest your innocence.  

Three that the impeachment charges brought before the Senate, should have been quickly, and summarily thrown out on multiple grounds, if we truly had smart, fair and constitutional loyal representatives in our government. 

There were no “high crimes and misdemeanors” in the House’s case. There was no evidence of Trump seeking personal gain. There is no blanket immunity given any presidential primary candidate (Joe Biden) from investigation into corruption of office. Otherwise every criminal would run for office to escape questions about their crimes. There can’t be abuse of Congress for exercising privilege not to testify, (Separation of Power) especially when the subpoenas issued by Congress were in fact, invalid.

The fact that Americans endured a torturous defaming of Trump by politically motivated party members, publically smearing his name and by default snubbing the electorate that support his presidency, shows how dangerously off the rails, the political left has become in this country.

Our government has yet to punish those that rigged the 2016 election, spied on private citizens, obtained warrants through lies and fraudulent means and handcuffed the first two years of the electorate choice for Commander in Chief, with a phony criminally engineered Russian conspiracy sham.

 

Americans were not fooled in 2016, and Americans are not being fooled in 2020, but will three times be a charm?

Unless the electorate makes the Democrats and never-Trumpers, pay for their lies and abuse of government power, this will continue to strain our Republic. And given the utter ignorance of some of our members of Congress, can we entrust them with the future of our Republic? 

If these Congress men and women are dumb as rocks, then vote them out, they are dangerous. If instead, you view them as corrupt and power hungry, then again vote them out, because our Republic’s fate, our country’s legacy, our children’s freedom, should never be in the hands of evil morons.
