America under enemy rule and the world as it is
VII. Freedom layers & freedom lovers. Meaningful classification of participants in the politics
Here again we shall use the same universal criterion:
The degree of freedom
I am an extremely rational person, and to me the discussion how to vote on the election day would be over as soon as I learned that the freedom, the free market is the only way for a nation to survive both demographically and economically while all the totalitarian distributionist societies (Eurosocialism, communism and fascism) kill the society, they all die out in front of our eyes. It's a dead end of human civilization. If you are at the crossroad between free market (a.k.a. freedom) and totalitarianism, (specifically in America– between conservatism =classic liberalism and leftist "progressive" liberalism) then you have only 2 choices: to survive with the free market or to perish with the totalitarianism. It's like "He had 78 possible causes of death, including decapitation", to which I'd respond: "Stop right there– I don't need any more causes! Decapitation is enough!" There is no single redistributive Nanny-State survivable society in the world, they all are doomed, they all literally die out– Europe, Russia, Japan, and aging China will join them shortly. Their demographic crisis will be compunded by the inevitable fiscal crisis, and their weakened by the Almighty Nanny State societies, populated by the castrated zombies, will put up no fight to the coming islamofascism, to jihad. On Aug.27, 10 NPR announced that during last 2 years since Obama was elected in 2008, America had its deepest fall in the birth rate ever. Obamunism kills the nation the same way any other redistributionist society (socialism, national socialism, communism and the like) kill any given nation that it infects. There are many factors, starting with the government taking over the retirement system, general uncertainty in the future under totalitarian government, destructive effects of totalitarian redistributive policies on the business and free market– you name it. How many mechanisms are at work, how exactly the Big Government and the obamunism kill America is much less important, the end result is the only thing that matters. Too much governments kills a nation, too much government is a path to self-destruction and any step empowering government under any excuse is a step on the slippery slope to the national suicide. Redistributionism, including Euro-socialism or the American democratic socialism is a dead end of civilization. Only based on the free market, on freedom society can survive and prosper.
However, it seems that majority of the people tend to ignore unpleasant Big Truth about inevitable death sentence to a nation when they vote for the "progressive" Democrats (or for any other brand of totalitarians) and about choosing Free Market as THE ONLY WAY TO SURVIVE for a nation. They instead focus on tiny pleasant details of European way of national suicide, which means we have to have further discussion. Alas, then we have to go into the details as well, in order TO TRY to show to the ignorant ones that "two times two equals four", even if we don't like this result.
To start discussion, let's first look on the simple one dimensional graph, where on the left is absolute slavery with no freedom, and on the right there is an ideal absolute freedom. In reality it can't achieve it just as the absolute zero by Kelvin = minus 273.16 cannot be achieved (even crystallized Helium gets only -273.09) or the light speed, but we shall use approximation.
Absolute slavery X Absolute freedom
X, for the sake of discussion, represents the current equilibrium, today's state of freedom, say, in America. All the individuals, political parties, states and any other entities on the right side from the X that pull the balance point towards "More freedom", represent The freedom lovers camp, while all the entities to the left of the X represent The freedom haters camp , and they pull the balance of powers point towards "Absolute slavery" respectively. As more freedom– as better: freedom is the most productive economic power and the main goal in the pursuit of happiness. Entities on the right extreme of the graph are pretty much pure good, while those on the extreme left are pure evil. Some political forces around the X point might fluctuate both in the short term (usually around election time) and in a long term (due to the societal changes with the shift of the X point or because of the entity's itself shifting elsewhere).
As freer the system is as more productive it is in any sense because then you work for the person you love– YOU. Respectively, the absolute slavery is the least productive system because you work for the person you likely to hate– for your master. The freedom, the free market does not make you smarter, but it gives you the motivation, the incentives to be the best possible you that you can be, so you are likely to realize your full potential.
Forces of good:
Everything that increases individual liberties, personal choices, free will, individual decision making powers, free market and private property does increase the degree of freedom and,thus, does improve the feedback loop function in the self-regulation, hence, improving outcomes of all positive processes in a society.
Forces of evil:
Everything that negatively impacts individual liberties, personal choices, free will, individual decision making powersm free market and private properties, automatically worsens the feed back loop function in the self-regulation processes, thus, worsening the outcomes in a society. This negative shift of power is commited whether by a government or a by a totalitarian ideology. Totalitarianism is a definition of a system that takes away aforementioned rights and powers from individuals and gives it to the system, to the authority, to the individual, oligarchy or collective dictatorship. Natural evolution of totalitarianism in the beginning may be slow worsening (as in the European Union), or a fast deterioration (as a result of coup or revolution, as in Russia, Hitler's Germany), but it always gets worse. Totalitarianism is characterized by the authoritarian government where citizens don't have much say, pervasive totalitarian ideology and propaganda, personal cults, control over the economy, mass surveillance, disrespect for privacy & private property, regulation and restriction of speech, usually disarmament of the people– well, you get the picture, it's exactly was is happening today here in the US. European soft tyranny was gradually shifting to the more totalitarianism, and the process typically accelerates. As more powers the government has– as easier and faster it can grab even more power.
For the freedom haters' camp I will use the term totalitarians interchangably because totalitarians do hate freedom.
Today's common (but misleading, not just meaningless) classification of the political forces as the "left, right and centrist moderates", based on historic accidental bench seats location, is a nonsense and serves only one purpose: to confuse public and to blurr the lines between right and wrong. It promotes false assumption that "the truth lies in the middle". Really? So, if a criminal raped a girl and then denies it, then what is "the middle ground"? That he raped her "just a little bit"? "Only" once? The facts of life repeatedly show that in politics those classic liberals who are in favor of freedom, free will, individual choices, free market with ensuing prosperity are friends of the people. Those totalitarians ("progressive" liberals included) who take away people's right to make decisions for themselves and free will, who hate and destroy freemarket (because it exposes their uselessness as it creates free and prosperous population that does not need those "noble anointed elite") wuth ensuing poverty are the enemies of people, of freedom. "The moderates", the "middle ground" false notion is an eclectic mixture that is neither faul nor fish, neither friends nor overt enemies of the people, but by highjacking rightousness from the classic liberals and occupying their place in the public mind they actually assist to the totalitarian enemies of the people. That's why I propose functionally much better classification based on the degree of feedom criteria.
The aforementioned single dimension freedom vs slavery graph is acceptable simplification althoug I personally prefer my 4 dimensional classification where the 4th dimension is a time, since the reality is not in a static state, there's always dynamic change. What is happening in Euro-Zoo is a staged process– soft totalitarianism of the Nanny State worsens when the power structures are infiltrated by the leftist Eurosocialists, and eventually the Euro-Zoo is being infiltrated and eliminated by the worst totalitarians, the islamofascists. You want to save the civilization? It's possible, it's even easy theoretically : Power to the people! Europeans must gain the popular sovereignty, fire FOR GOOD 99.99% of the government, abolish ALL government run programs– from retirement and welfare to the healthcare, and after several years of turmoil invisible almighty hand of the Free Market, of self-regulation, will solve as much as it is feasible the problems of Europe– the demographics, economy, finances. Theoretically not only possible, but quite easy. However, try to convince the Euro-zombies, brainwashed by their ruling elites in governments and MSM, to leave the cozy cages of the Euro-Zoo and go live in a wild…Domesticated and castrated animals of Europe are afraid even to fart without explicit permission from their masters in the government and MSM. I almost totally gave up on the Europeans– there are so few true freedom lovers such as Geert Wilders! Well, I got sidetracked, let's go back to the discussion:
To imagine the 4 D classification in a visual form, let's recall the Shrek movie.
Remember, as Shreck said: " Layers! Ogres have layers!" Well, freedom also has layers, and the analysis of the world according to the layers of freedom (you can call them also the freedom rings) is the most truthful, simple and practical analysis with tremendous prediction powers. It works at any level of the society structure. You can explain and predict behaviour and actions of a person, party, movement, government, country or civilization. Prediction power is most important feature of this analysis both as a proof if its correctness and in practical terms to be pro-active to the tactics, strategy and future actions by the freedom-haters camp.
The core freedom layer in a political sense is comprised of the libertarians, conservatives, objectivists, individualists– all those who are closer to the core freedom than today's freedom balance (the X point on the single dimension line). It encompasses all those who want to push today's freedom equilibrium point towards "more freedom!" direction. In a societal sense, the best approximation to this ideal core freedom layer was achieved by the American Founding Fathers, who established ruled by the law Republic where we, the people, are the sovereign (while the government can have only as much power as we give to it), where individual liberties and rights are the highest priority while the rights of the "total" (collective, society, government) are secondary because they are always used and abused by the totalitarians as an excuse to diminish freedom, thus, to hurt the society. Free and prosperous society can consist only of free and prosperous people. When Founding Fathers created the freest country in the world, it inevitably became the greatest and most prosperous country in the world. The totalitarians since 1913 have continuosly eroded the Republic, the Constitution, the people's sovereignty, decision making powers, freedoms for the sake of grabbing more power and more money under the smoke of demagoguery of "protecting the unfortunate ones". Short 8 years of Reagan were the only period in 20th centary when the degree of freedom has somewhat improved, and it was good enough to save the country from the worst since 1929 crisis. Reagan inherited the US from the Democrats with the worst "misery index" since Great Depression (even though Obama falsely claims that Obama's starting point was worse). Unfortunately, Reagan was limited in his efforts to save America by the Democrats controlled Congress. Nevertheless, he managed to partially remove some of the Big Government's shackles from the Free Market, then the ensuing freedom caused an explosive growth of wealth as well: with the same resources America created extra goods and services worth $ 30 trillion! It's not a secret at all– as less government as more freedom, and more freedom right away translates into more prosperity for every one (and especially for the poor because the rich already living in luxury cannot personally consume much more) . Despite whining of the totalitarians, Free Market as the only origin of progress and prosperity made American "poor" richer than "rich" in many countries around the world. So, whatever was good in America is due to Free Market, while whatever is bad is due to the narcissistic totalitarians (statists first and now "progressive" Democrats). That's why totalitarians hate Free Market and try to discredit and to destroy it -because it proves time after time that totalitarians are the forces of evil, that all good comes from the un-personified Free Market, not from those narcissistic elitists who only cause harm.
Then there is a thin layers of the divide, of the membrane, that represents today's equilibrium point, whose location on the line differs significantly in different societies, countries, regions and world-wide. Unfortunately, today's trend is towards "less freedom", as the West's transition from the soft tyranny of Nanny State to the harder totalitarianism accelerates and the islamization of the world imposes the worst kind of totalitarianism on the humanity. So, the core freedom volume is shrinking and we must reverse this dire trend. Just like in the nesting doll structure, the next layer away from the core freedom is statism, followed by the Eurosocialism, "progressive" Democrats' socialism, communism, national socialism (classic fascism) and the worst kind– based on the Shariah law islamofascism. In today's Islam religion is just a mask, a beard that conceals the totalitarian system of Shariah laws, totalitarian ideology and practice that waged eternal war named jihad against the humanity since medieval ages and it goes on now. So, Islam is not a true religion because unlike true religions it contains an all-encompassing system where religion is only a part of the totalitarian system, a camouflauge. As long as Shariah law stays an integral part of islam– Islam is incompatible with any other civilization. American Muslims have only 2 choices: whether to be a good American (thus, a bad Muslim) or to be a good Muslim (which means, a bad American). One can have only one master– whether freedom or submission, whether American Constitution– or antihumane Shariah laws. If by joint efforts of Muslims (who live by the law of the country, not by the Shariah law), and by efforts of other freedom-lovers Islam will be purified from the filth of the Sharia laws, then all Muslims will have the same chance of getting along with others as anybody else. Until then Sharia-based Islam is the worst enemy of the mankind because it is hellbent on one thing– to take over the world and to destroy all other religions, all other law systems, all other civilizations.
As of today, as islamist Turkish PM Erdogan correctly noted, "there is no such thing as moderate or extremist islam– there is only one islam". And sadly, the whole this "the only one Islam" is extreme, so as of today there are good Muslims but there is no such thing as "good Islam".
FREEDOM LOVERS CAMP a.k.a. people's friends:
Since the degree of freedom directly correlates with the degree of prosperity of the society, all freedom lovers by default are friends of the people.
That encompasses all potential allies that are located close to the core freedom than today's equilibrium point in any givern society between absolute freedom and absolute slavery. Their instinctive or articulated views and visions are representation of the classic liberalism, embedded in the original American Constitution. They feel or know that if we are free to make our choices then we prosper in every sense, and if someone or something (a government) makes choices for us then we are in trouble. The freedom lovers as of today make effort to shift the equilibrium point towards more individual liberties, more free will, more free market and, thus, more happiness. Freedom lovers' productive goal is a united in the pursuit of individual success and happiness people that generate new individual wealth that translates into the wealth of the society as whole under conditions of individual liberties, free market and minimal influence of the people's enemy government. In the US it's conservative and libertarian movement. The sum of individual successes equals success of the society. "Progressive" enemies of the people try to denigrate Free Market calling it a "greed" based. If it is a "greed" for individual success, for the fruits of their own hard labor – then it is the extremely productive "greed" that brings about 100% of American prosperity.
Unlike that, the freedom-haters (mainly “progressives” in the US) are just opposite: they all share destructive greed for somebody's else money, powers and benefits that they didn't earn, they break down society into as many as possible special interests factions/groups that fight with each other for redistribution of the already existing wealth, using coercive powers of the evergrowing in the degree of totalitarianism, size, scope and budget Big Government. In the US it is the "progressive" Democ-rats gang. The ultimate result is a societal collective failure.) So, it is the "progressive" Democrats who are greedy, they try to rob Peter to pay Paul, while conservatives just want to keep theirs, the fruits of their own hard labor.
Freedom camp unites the nation in the "greed" for individual success while totalitarian camp divides the society using collective greed and resulting in collective failure– just compare North and South Korea, East and West Germany, UK before and under Tatcher, thriving Reaganomics and failing Obamunism).
There is some element of the buffer system: if the equlibrium point moves towards "more slavery", then the bigger segment of the society finds itself in the freedom-lovers camp and thus they join efforts to free the people from the government. The government counteracts by making more beggers and slaves out of the people by giving them "free lunches" handouts and, hence, shifting them back to the freedom-haters camp. Some swing voters fluctuate around the equilibrium point due the subjective factors (such as tiredness of professional politicians of the ruling party) and chaotically push the equilibrium point back and forth. That's what happened in 2006 and 2008, when independants moved from lesser totalitarianism of the GOP statists to much worse totalitarianism of the leftist "progressives". Now when the enemies of America in Washington, DC pushed the equilibrium point so hard and so fast towards totalitarian socialism and pro-Muslim dictatorship that many Americans found themselves in Tea party movement, which is a bitter opposition to the massive frontal attack of the Obama's regime on liberties, free market and prosperity. Silent majority woke up to realize the truthfulness of old saying that if you leave the dirty business of politics to the dirty professional politicians then you must expect to be ruled by your inferiors. Here we are– all the Washington, DC is permeated now by the totalitarian "progressive" filth. The swing voters, the independants before voting for the Democrats must realize that for the Democrats making America more prosperous is like shooting to their leg. Same is for the statists in the both parties. RINOs in GOP just like also want "to solve" the problems through increasing powers, scope and the budget of the governtment, which is exactly opposite from what needs to be done to solve the problems. The "progessives" are delusional, but even delusional ones know that decreasing their voting base means kicking themselves out of the feeding ground in Washington, DC. It is the Democrats' direct and vested interest to increase theirs and to decrease the opposition's electorate. Oh, the family guys and the faithful vote conservative? Then the Dems destroy families and religion: by moral relativity theory, encouraging promuscuity and sexual perversions, welfare, discrediting influence of family and religion and by thousand of other mean means. Oh, hardworking, independant and prosperous Americans vote conservative? Then the Dems make as many Americans lazy taxpayor money recipients as they can, inflating the entitlement programs until the fiscal catasrtophe ensues. As the free market proponents vote against the Democ-rats, then the Dems regulate free market to death, to today's crisis. Free souls oppose totalitarian progressives? Then the statists and "progressives" will gradually take away all you individual liberties, replacing it with the federal dictatorship. Remember, it is against the Democrats' interests to make you free, independant and prosperous person in the pursuit of happiness. Same holds true for all totalitarians directly proportionally to the degree of their totalitarianism. They want to make you a serf, a ward of the government, a subject to them, a sheep under "enlightened" elite rule, just like the happily bleating castrated by the political correctness animals in the EuroZoo and then your own government will bring you to the Jihadists' slaughter houses, which occurs in UK and Scandinavia as we speak.
So, again, the core freedom layer comprised largely by the self-described conservatives (43% of Americans) who love their freedoms, guns and the Bible. This is the "instinctive" freedom lovers. They might not be highly educated, but, unlike the university professors, journalists, Hollywood trash or any other intelligentsia, they do have common sense.
Libertarians are tiny manority of the freedom camp, but they are extremely important because they not just feel, but know why the freedom is the key to prosperity and happiness and because they can eloquently articulate, summurize and publicly defend in the remaining 4% of non-totalitarian MSM the case for liberty. In addition, a lot of them matured through the stages of personal development that included leftist totalitarians. Some of them used to be leftis "progressive" totalitarians themselves, twhile they were young, stupid, irresponsible and relebblious. Now they matured into healthy freedom-lovers, but they do know the totalitarian enemies of the people inside out, which makes them even more valuable to the cause of freedom.
Objectivists, individualists, free market proponents, such as the followers of Ayn Rand and the like, are valuable allies of the freedom cause amongst the intelligentsia and art communities too. There are decent freedom lovers amongst these communities too, even though majority of the them are totalitarian "progressive" enemies of the people: entertainment trash, lazy speculative Wall Street billionaires that produce only hot air ballons (in distinction to the hard-working Main street business people that produce 100% of the civilizaition goods we enjoy), journalists, writers, leftist brainwashing "educators" and the like.
Internet pro-freedom bloggers: in the age of information monopolization by "progressives" it is virtually impossible to obtain the whole picture of any process or event from big information outlets (well, may be with the exception of Fox TV that presents both conservative friends and "progressive" enemies of America on the screen). So, now we have to fish for the other details of the puzzle in a tumultous turmoil of internet. There's whole spectrum of opinions on internet from the "progressive" crap of moveon.org and Huffington to the best source of information in blogosphere by Pamela Geller (atlasshrugs.com). She is emotional, but frequently the she is the only source of hidden ideologically and politically charged information in media. Pamela alone as a source of valuable information is worth combined MSNBC, NBC, CNN and all other "progressive" leftist TV monopolies. Jihadwatch and similar sites expose islamofascism as the most urgent threat all world's civilization while the liberal TV monopolies just hush it.
Individual enterprises and small business owners: Nearly all of them support freedom, and freedom from the coercive government is the most important component of freedom. Economy thrives when small business florish, and this is possible only under free market conditions (because it's governned by the only capable of optimizing outcome self-regulation with feed-back loop), and free market automatically means individual liberties. Free market means freedom of choices which is equivalent to individual liberties. That's one of the reasons that the totalitarian freedom-haters hate free market too. Basically, there is direct proportion between prosperity, successes of ecnonmy and the degree of freedom on the market place. As freer the market is as more productive the country is. Obviously, there is and inverse proportion between government intervention, mandates, regulation and usual coercion on one hand and the outcomes. Again, we should keep telling our enemy government :"Do us a favor– don't do us favors!!"
Mid-size business and big corporations: As bigger the business, as more the bureaucratic structures it creates and more rigid, inflexlible it is. In addition, as bigger it is an easier target for the government it becomes. Statists and "progressive" Democ-rats gang commit regular shakedowns of the big businesses, forcing them to subsidize anti-American totalitarian machine. This proportional to the size of the company political and ideological pressure shifts these companies from the core freedom layers to the totalitarian side. Besides, it depends how easy the money is: hard working industrial Main Street is still somewhat supportive of freedom while speculators of the Wall Street were second biggest donor (after socialist pabor unions) to America's Enemy-in-Chief Obama. Some big corporations (such as GE and BP) openly side with the government enemies of the people, creating cronies capitalism instead of the free market. They donate money to the statists and leftists in the government, and they pay them back by doing favors in the unfair competition. GE gets taxpayor's money from our pockets to subsidize otherwise unsustainable "green crap". Google filters out pro-freedom forces, controlling the information gate to internet. AP (frequently feels like it stands for "Associated Palestinians") and Reuter distort the information flow to fit the totalitarian political correctnes, basically reducing themselves to totalitarian propaganda machine, the misinformators and disinformators of the public. Instead of informing public, they effectively form the public opinion for their ideological ends. It's true about 100% of European propaganda machine and about 96% of American information outlets.
Occasional temporary allies: On a particular issues occasionally one might find some allies even in the Democ-rat party elites, and the freedom lovers definitely should use them as temporary allies. Of course, now it's the age of political polarization, now we clearly see not just a line, but a fast growing gap between conservative friends of the people and totalitarian enemies of the people, so the fiscally conservative or pro-life Democrats are on the brink of extinction. There is virtually no common ground between freedom loving friends of America and freedom-hating enemies, between conservatives and "progressives". Subjective exceptions happen, but objectively "bipartisanship" idea is dead, unless after 2010 defeat the Democ-rats will start listen to the American people and purge the party elite of totalitarian enemies of America. However, when we find such pleasant surprises, we should accept the help from any sorse as long as it advances the cause of the freedom without any castrating freedom compromises. That's the way of compromising with some rare reasonable Democrats– as a compromise, we can accept their assistance in advancing particular freedom initiative. What the Obama's regime "bipartisanship" actually means is pretty bad: enemies of the people, the leftist "progressives" in Obama's regime interpret "bipartisanship" as when everybody agrees with their killing America policies. In general, "bipartisanship" in today's politics is totally impossible just as a compromise between the criminal and his victim, between a plague germs and humans, or between the assassin's knife and our heart.
THE FREEDOM-HATERS CAMP a.k.a. enemies of the people:
Since any deterioration in the degree of freedom (individual liberties, free market) inevitably worsens the prosperity, quality of life and the pursuit of happeness in the society, then all the freedom-haters are automatically enemies of the people, whether they realize this or not. All the freedom-haters are natural allies in their fight against the people. Now we see more evidence as this trends develops in Europe: during stillstand of the freedom-loving EDL people in UK and in similar events in Scandinavia all the enemies of the people combine and cooperate: socialist government's police, "black" fascists and red "antifascist" communists, pirple labor union anarchist wing, pink socialists, green environmentalist extremists and green islamofascists. Police breaks peaceful unarmed freedomlovers into small groups, misguiding some of them to go in circles while taking other small groups (that include women and children) and dropping them off in front of hudnreds of violent islamofascists or pink / red activists and then police coldbloodedly watches the insueing carnage. Don't expect your enemy, totalitarian socialist government, to protect you against other totalitarians: as a totalitarian entity, the state, the governments aligns and allies itself with other freedom-haters camp dwellers. People have a united front of totalitarians against them, including the government that takes taxes from their pockets reportedly to protect the people but in fact to suppress them, to silence them, to push them back into the sheep barns.
