I've been reading a lot about different governments of all types. Different wars, different societies, different leaders, followers, and different ideologies.
The one thing in common is they all require subterfuge and violence at some level to accomplish their goals. It is inevitable. Because there are always many factions trying to rule and get the 'spoils', there will always be factions trying to TAKE AWAY from the present system.
The difference is: which system supplies the best balance of power for the average citizen of a country. It certainly isn't communism, socialism or any totalitarian type of government. If you have done your reasonable reading of history you would know this. The best system I can see is the America form of a Republic. The balance of "legislative, executive and judicial". And up to recently the freedom of speech for any citizen and for our news media.
It's scary in the late 2000nds that our news media has become basically a political tool for the socialists and our judicial, legislative and executive branches have become entwined in an apparent liberal so called progressive attempt at undoing our separations of the branches of government.
Anyone who knows anything about government should be really frightened at what the Democratic Party is trying to push on America. I certainly am.
Hopefully they are another rare thing in politics and don't further flush the country down the toilet but I don't hold out much hope. Still, glad to see some people are apparently seeing priorities that aren't even on my radar.
