We are at a crossroads here in America. Overview: The Point of Choice Our opposition is using every bit of our natural compassion and belief, our sensitive Christian tenets of faith that call us to volunteer and help the downtrodden, and by political measures take that very noble belief system, regulate and mandate our compassion into something that only serves to empower their own political positions. The mandates do make them more powerful, but they do not make them more righteous, and these mandates do not make us less righteous in our honest intent, but they do make us less powerful as a people.
Lets go back to the beginnings of the Communist party before Lenin, before Trotsky, actually to the origins before Marx and Engels codified it into what it was to become. The very beginnings of communism were based on Jewish tradition. A religion and a life style. Traditions that willingly embraced in the hearts of the faithful that seek out means to help the community unselfishly as a whole, through the personal responsibility that every member embraced and dedicated to the well being of every other member, that being the life style. Granted that is a major over simplification, but it gives us the perspective of a starting point. It also illustrates the importance of keeping our religions and our politics separate and apart. The authorities that source to both are separate and apart. One speaks to the earthy workings of man, the other to the spiritual and a Higher Authority and that higher authorities natural laws.
The traditions and high ideals that were basically forwarded at the beginning of socialism/communism, were noble and therefore invited no room for criticism from a noble people claiming to want to live noble lives. They preyed upon our natural good natures. Voluntarily and with willing heart the noble tenants that were already embraced lured people into the political psychology. The Socialist dogma that grew at a slow pace, sourced from the writings of the Talmudic, infiltrated and infected just about every human endeavor. Trotsky in 1927 even coined a word that was intended to discredit and ostracize and brow beat those who questioned the Socialist agenda,that term was 'Racist'
From a worthy beginning, slowly the political polluted the faith based movement into a non-volunteer but a mandated collective system. The Jewish traditions became the door through which the willing walked into the politic of socialism/to a deeper degree communism where benevolent choice was set aside, and conformity was mandated. Volunteering to shelter and love your fellow man was not achieved through a love and following the admonitions of the Almighty, but by and only by, the authority of the State.....eventually the belief in the Almighty was abandoned. Strong socialist states today have no official affection for a Higher Power. Only pockets of 'the religious' can be found in these societies, there exists much atheism in socialist countries today.
Then came The American Revolution The American Revolution, gave us the first dynamic introduction, on a nation sized scale of the experiment of self rule, shook the foundations of what had through the ages of time, in every historical society and nations that had risen and fell, the challenge to the "The Divine Rights of Kings". No longer could that ruling paradigm that created, manipulated, rewarded and abused the classes in the societies they ruled, claim as a leadership the divine right to rule over a common folk. No longer must a common folk be dictated to, concerning what they were going to do and how they were going to live.
I will grant to the argument, that the Iron Rule had been somewhat challenged successfully before at Runnymede when the king was forced to sign the Magna Carta. While that instrument did infringe on the totalitarian rule of Kings, it only affected the Peerage of Nobles. We have seen through the times where Liberty has flourished the continuance of the wealthy, those with and inherited position, those who have accumulated wealth to create for themselves a class of their own, some label them today as the Rich and powerful Crony Capitalists. History will always record groups that morph into the Robber barons who strive to be a ruling class, and those who seek to rule will always adapt.
But in this new America, The spark was lit....and it was a dangerous idea. The original revolutionaries had done something that no other nation or great society had done before in the history of the world, they created a Republic that incorporated Democratic principles, and those self same principles were to be constrained by a document we know as the Constitution. The Constitution was to be our guide, our mooring, our launch to every aspect of a sovereign future.
No more in a new nation common folk fought for and won their own freedom to create and dwell within, could any right of any king claim dominion in this new land and there was to be no High,Middle, or Low justice meted out at such a hand or carried out upon a king's whim. but the seed of individual freedom, and the concept that no earthly authority granted us our positions as sovereigns over our existence was born in the lands of America and in the hearts of her citizens with the unique psychology of fundamental belief in "God given Rights". The words of the Declaration of Independence held the power to free not only ourselves but to spread such hope to the rest of the world. That basic tenet and cornerstone of our experiment in self rule enshrined in the Constitution is now under attack from within and without by self serving detractors
Today we have a declared socialist running on the Democratic ticket for the highest office in our land. He enjoys some strong popular support, he is polling in the lead in some primary states. This man leads the democratic socialist caucus in our Congress, it is said to have over 70 members. These people have been elected to their positions by us. How do socialists have such support in a free and sovereign nation that emphasizes the individual as exceptional, the State's as sovereigns in their own right, and not the collective as principle? Last week's democratic debate was a contest between who could collectively gift our society with more 'free entitlements'. Entitlements that we are to believe we are born with has replaced the 'natural rights' we were endowed with. The State has become the benefactor, not Our Creator. I ask you, how have we arrived at this place in American political dogma today? Why have we accepted it mostly without question?
THE PATH to the CROSSROAD There are stages on the politic scale, Ideologies of government. According to Wiki They are:
- Anarchism, Anarchism is anti-state, asserting that all hierarchical power structures are corrupt
- Absolutism, A form of government in which the ruler is an absolute dictator (not restricted by a constitution or laws).
- Communism, The Labor Theory Of Value best represents this, as if you are lost and alone, you cannot live off capital, currency, and it does not matter to your class, but if you live off your labor then you will continue to live. No one should privately own anything so everyone will be equal. Stalin, Lennon, and Marx all took the theory to dictatorship. Marx forwarded this change through revolution.
- Conservatism, Conservatism emphasized a 'natural order' based on tradition and slow evolutionary change.
- Environmentalism, Environmentalism (or ecologism) is an ideology which rejects the human-centered core of other political theories, and emphasizes instead the priorities of the planet Earth.
- Fascism, is less a rational or logical theory of ideas than it is a recipe for power and political opportunism. The ideology is nationalist, authoritarian, militaristic, (somewhat) socialist and action-based rather than theory-based.
- Liberalism, Three sub-sections
- Individualism - individual freedoms, in a civil society.
- Classic Liberalism - Including natural rights, utilitarianism, economic liberalism and social Darwinism. Emerged alongside the rise of capitalism to reflect the political interests of the burgeoning middle classes. During the transition between absolute monarchies to constitutional governments, liberalism articulated the rights of those outside the traditional power structure to freedom from arbitrary rule and economic restrictions.
- Modern Liberalism - Including Freedom, Welfarism, and Keynesianism. Liberalism first developed a welfare agenda in response to the rampant social inequality and misery that emerged in the wake of the industrial revolution and in response to the articulation of rival ideologies such as socialism.
- Nationalism, Nationalism is a belief, creed or political ideology that involves an individual identifying with, or becoming attached to, one's nation. Nationalism involves national identity, by contrast with the related construct of patriotism, which involves the social conditioning and personal behaviors that support a state's decisions and actions.
- Socialism, Socialism is concerned with welfare of the people, and as such is concerned with providing healthcare and education and the provision of other necessities of a healthy life in order to create a more 'level' society. Socialism seeks these changes through nationalization, mandates of government and social engineering. (Peaceful revolution)

America, a truly unique creation, a democratic-representative-republic. It was an unprecedented, novel concept we began with, it was immature and grew as it would without example. A strong and healthy, righteous and willful, trembling and vulnerable, determined and courageous government/nation.
Today the opposition to embrace our founding doctrine has bluffed us into believing we are a Democracy (
absent the republic part) which has evolved to a higher plain and abandoned the republic having found it to be of little consequence. All of the ideologies of government listed above have had their erosive or diminishing influence on the Democratic Republican Foundations we began with.
FROM THE EARLIEST DAYS In the Colonial days it was an accepted practice to emulate the English pattern they were familiar with, of the rich running everything and the common people doing what they were told/expected to do. Before the Revolution, what made it different in America from European models, was the abundance of land that could be farmed for sustenance, survival, and individual profit. Opportunity to make a better life.
In Europe, parcels passed down from generation to generation in Europe gave the individuals the mindset they could do for themselves and could Control/Rule themselves on their own lands. The people living on their lands did so with their good graces, subject to their dictates, thrived or did not thrive according to the benevolence or lack thereof of the ruler over these lands.
Our strong belief in the Creator (America was founded on Christian principles) and the failed history of serving kings and landlords became the basis for our removing and rejecting the Foreign rule of Kings.
OUR NATION BEGAN ADVANCE DOWN THE SLIPPERY SLOPE Advance American history to the time after our next major conflict, The Civil War. The cause against Slavery was minor as catalyst that precipitated the war, and more importantly to the people of that era, was the supremacy of States Rights over Federal Rights. To that effect a Civil war had been fought, and the proponents of Federal Rights supreme over the Peoples and States Rights took root. That was the larger government role, there was a personal role taking place in society.
Human nature being what it is, those maintaining their richness after the war wanted to maintain their control over and profit from what they still considered the lower classes, and those who wanted to become rich and advantage themselves in the reconstruction chaos that followed the war all sought their opportunity. That gave rise to the Robber Barons of the 1800's
In the Mid 1800's the Robber Barons were mainly situated in the Northern States and held title through many private banks liens on Southern landowners real property and were charging what we would call usurious rates of interest. The Robber Barons reverted to what the old Liege Lords of previous centuries were prone to do, namely abusing their workers. This phenomenon was not only happening in America, but it was gaining a resurgence world wide.
That was the original impetus and lure of Socialism to the downtrodden common folk everywhere. It travelled to America with European immigrants. However, the common folk - the immigrant, did not discern that it was in fact the old order reasserting itself under the False Flag of "an experiment to liberate the workers of the world from the tyranny of the rich", when in fact it was just another way to have the people voluntarily place the twin yokes of oppression and exploitation around their necks again in a free land, while believing that they themselves could still remain free and self directed. A man/woman cannot serve two masters.
THE SLOPE...ON STEROIDS Introduce another 'ism'. This is what is happening today under another False Flag called Progressivism.
It is the same co-mingled ideologies, repackaged as something grand and new, sold to a more sophisticated public. Lipstick on a pig, does not change the reality of the animal. The Traditional Abusive Ruling Class is still trying to retain their control, and are gaining inroads to that old time total control because the people have been politically asleep for over 115 years.
The tenants of socialism and communism immigrated to America and have gradually and incrementally morphed to 'the progressive' theology enhanced through revisionist historical telling. Under the guise of again "Helping The Downtrodden", they are again seeking to enslave and drag us backward into the old age-old world ways. If they succeed We The People will again suffer as subjects while they maintain their strangle hold on all the political and monetary power that there is in our Nation, advanced with their own ties to the world. Much has been done in broad and in fine to advance globalization, the prize for them is enormous. They decry the 1%, pointing fingers at all but themselves. How ironic that they are the self-same, but if you are not member to their portion of extreme wealth and protected clique, you are the wealthy they scapegoat to advance class envy. They wish us to completely miss the FACT that they are the rich they are so easily and publicly condemning.
This Treatise started out as Americans being at a cross roads, it was meant to convey that we are actually at the tipping point where we will either go toward and restore our original Revolutionary Freedoms, understand, embrace and restore our original Constitution, reject the old world Politics of Progressivism for ourselves and most importantly our children? Or, will we silently and quietly slip back into the condition of servitude, slide into the grand abyss of history as a beautiful-magnificent-failed experiment, where the common man could not rise and remain standing.
Has the reign of Kings, many kings, in many lands with self appointed - ignorantly anointed Rulers returned/began once again? I pray not.
THE CROSSROADS It's up to us individually and in concert with each other.
So many of us do the arduous work of seeking to speak to and expose the lies and subterfuges of the progressives. We work to keep pushing back the darkness. We know that we live in a critical time requiring critical action, and how easily our country can slip back into servitude. Truly examine your lives, how much freedom to you realize? How much servitude do you suffer? Honestly seek and then find the truth for yourself, embrace it and share it with your children. Our educational systems from top to bottom revise, sanitize, and re-invent the truth, revise our true history to suit their dogma, and indoctrinate the same to our young and fertile minds.
We must succeed in maintaining this knowledge, we must succeed in sharing it to offer honest counter to the progressive doctrines that blind and twist our children toward their mold and psychology. What they teach is not new, it is old, it wants to take us backward to an Old Order of Servitude while calling it the new age of progressive/collective thought.
The corrupting of the educational systems, since the days of Lenin and Trotsky have found fertile field in our so-called American institutions of higher learning. They are the breeding grounds of modern day socialism/communism/progressivism. Not new ideas....just a new generation of minds. Liberal progressive instructors are harbingers of darkness and oppression, not superior in thought speaking of the promise of a new age full of freedom and light. It is the fear of many that they have almost completely succeeded in the corruption of our children. We must bring an end to that process.
If we are to survive as a free people we must remember our history, make our strongest stand against the progressive misbegotten power advocates, starting now and continuing onward with determination, for the next generation, on to the next, and the next, sticking steadfast to the foundation on which we were stood up, and doing all that we can to return/remain to it, so that we never lose sight of what it is to be free - where we must get back to, to be truly free once again.
