Are people really surprised that a centralized political authority not only does what it was intended to do, but seeks to expand its importance, influence, and budget?
@PerBylund Not sure it does what it was intended to do: protect individual rights in a Constitutional Republic, not a democracy… You can’t majority vote/gang rule my rights away.😉
@PerBylund Lysander Spooner was not surprised. People should read more of his work, especially "No Treason."
@PerBylund Surprise is only for the alert; most will never allow themselves to see it, and precious few who can may then reflect on it, and only the rarest of those may change course.
@PerBylund The evolutionary imperative is to grow strong and reproduce, to pass on your DNA
@PerBylund Very few people knows what this means, and fewer realized there is a problem.
