Bring Back the Guillotine!
The New Political Paradigm
Why Republicans and Democrats are Obsolete
In the beginning, there was industry. And the business owners looked at the factories and said "It is Good." But the workers who were all working long hours under harsh conditions said "It's not so good." And thus were capitalism and socialism both born.
As economics and politics progressed, the workers had their own movement to counter the interest of employers. The employers, usually business owners, wanted people to keep pace with the relentless speed of the machine. They wanted a minimum of gov't interference and taxes. However, humans get tired, need food, breaks, adequate rest, healthcare, decent working conditions, etc., Therefore socialism and union organization were born to represent their interests in the capitalistic model.
Over the years the Republicans became Conservatives, representing the interests of the Business Owners and Employers. The Democrats became Liberals, representing the interests of the poor, needy and Employees. This was crystallized perfectly by the Thirties with the Great Depression and the New Deal.
Now, that model is becoming obsolete. It is a model from the Industrial Age when workers and business owners were in the same country. Now, in the Information Age, corporations span the entire globe.
OUTLINE
1. The new political paradigm is globalist versus populist or nationalist. The traditional Industrial Revolution divide between Conservatives & Liberals is obsolete. Both the Dems and Reps are globalist. They both eagerly supported the war in Iraq, a globalist policy aimed at controlling the supply of oil. We are no longer in the Industrial Economy, we are in the Globalist Economy.
2. In the Globalist Economy, both Big Gov't parties are pretty much the same. They serve lobbyists, they bail out the Big Rich, they defend Empire America internationally. Look at the New Democrats - LimoCons: Limousine Liberals turning conservative for the sake of their careers. So now we have no opposition parties in DC. All one big happy globalist family, with their cousins on K Street providing the link to America's new owners, the corporations.
3. The only real differences are the emotional, hot button issues: Guns, Gays, Burning Flags, Abortion, Religion, etc. The only way the candidates can win, while serving the Big Rich, is to get people upset about the emotional issues. Those are the only fundamental differences.
4. Ron Paul will never have real clout, as Bernie Sanders won't either. They are prophets in the wilderness, without Deep Pocket sponsors. Land of Opportunity is over, Third World Country - Coast to Coast begins.
Welcome to the 21st Century. No wonder the Mayans got disgusted and stopped counting!
FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE
In addition, we have become a New Kleptocracy. The USSR may have lost the Cold War, but in reality they just crossed the Bankruptcy Finish Line first. We are close behind with a 12 trillion dollar debt.
And like the New Russia, we have Big Gov't and the Big Rich confiscating all the wealth in the country.
There is approx. 20% real unemployment, with a Jobless Recovery leading us into a Jobless Economy. What system will exist in the New Klepto-America?
How about Neo-Feudalism? The King is replaced by a collective monarchy (Gov't, Big Business, Lobbyists, Lawyers, Cops, etc.) which will have absolute power. This is the Neo-Cons' vision for the USSA (United States of Syndicate America). Is the Democratic Party's version any different? I see the Big Rich continuing to loot the public treasury, just like they did under Bush-Cheney.
Ignore the rhetoric. Follow the money.
Have another hit of fresh air...
