Our political cause feels hopeless, there’s no place for true deregulation in the United States Government.
Maybe I’m reading too much lately, but there’s so few leaders who say anything close to what we’re about. Who is seriously saying “I am going to shut down entire government departments”, “I am going to take away all regulation”, “I am going to cut federal spending by 75%, and most people won’t even notice if they don’t want the news.”
It’s so stupidly simple to solve so many of our woes. But nobody in power is going to do it. The Right might try and do a tiny little amount, but it won’t be much, and left will reverse it whenever they get back in power. I don’t ever want to end up like Argentina, but that’s what it took to get some people in power to were wise to real reason were doing so badly (The Government).
Trump was rightly booed at the Lib convention, and he was also correct when he said “Fine, keep getting 3-5% of the vote”, because that’s what’s going to keep happening.
The only potential slight chance I see is if the Democratic party stays on its current course and is forced to make a huge change to stay relevant. But, that relies on the next 2-4 years going well, which it very well might not.
This is becoming important to me because the answers so many our our questions are obvious: Get rid of government. That’s it. (YouTube · Jason Headley27.4M+ views · 11 years ago <- this is what it feels like talking to both sides). Where does that leave us? IDK, penetrating the failing Democratic party feels like a long shot, and not sure what other chance there is.
Maybe this has to be more than a political movement. Could it be accomplished through a social movement? Something like what Kennedy said in his inauguration speech? “Your Country” meaning the people around you, not anything the federal, state, or even local government wants to accomplish. I truly believe this is arguably the greatest country in the world in spite of our government, and would be undoubtably the greatest country in the world without it.
