The American public clearly does not understand the relationship between democracy and "money," or what passes for money. In the same way that fiat, paper money passes for genuine wealth and value, democracy passes for the original and best form of American government. The two — democracy and fiat paper — are intrinsically connected.
Democracy and fiat money are the twin towers of public deception. Both are required to deceive Americans concerning their own affairs. Both are empty, so far as individual liberty and the common good are concerned. The common wealth of the people has been perverted into a collective "public good," or disguised socialism, which is used as the primary appeal to advance both democracy and the love of money.
Democracy and fiat money both thrive on the darkest sins of man's heart: greed and guilt manipulation. Fiat money appeals to the greed of men by asserting that it is possible to be wealthy without hard work and creativity — that one can create wealth merely by accumulating paper that has been arbitrarily numbered and assigned a fictitious value. As the Bible says, such love of money is the root of all evil. Democracy supports this wickedness by permitting the populace to vote itself the largess of the public trough. The big lie is that all can become wealthy in this system of unlimited paper money and unlimited paper money redistribution programs. The widespread guilt created by these sins of greed and deception is then used to manipulate the public into supporting social welfare programs.
The system regenerates itself: The public relieves its guilt for having loved money so much that it allowed the creation of lots and lots of worthless "money." The illusion is that there is widespread wealth. The illusion is that there is self-government and freedom.
At the head of this deception is the so-called "democratic" government. If it is so democratic, why are the same people always at its helm? Why are the same "government professionals" always in key positions of power and influence? Their lie fusing democracy and the greedy pursuit of unlimited "money" is made possible by their various bureaucratic confiscation programs. After all, if the IRS and other taxing and fee powers appear to really want those paper dollars, they must be valuable stuff! To some degree, we are all compelled to participate. The system is too large to avoid altogether. Also, regular media whippings and constant legislation of new "laws" compel people to believe in democracy and the love of money.
To the degree that individuals avoid the system, they avoid the pending, utter collapse. For now, the payoff to avoiding the system is a clear conscience and greater personal and family liberty.
Most of you are already informed enough to know that the American nation was founded as a republic, not a democracy. A republic is a limited, representative, participatory government. A republic is the almost natural result of public order built upon the love of God, the individual, the family and business and many, many private associations and relations. Democracy is not necessarily a representative government, but it is an illusory participatory government. People tend to think that democracy is evolved or modern republicanism. Democracy is truly a veil for a wicked government that places all matters, including personal and private ones, into the public view, for public legislation.
In a democracy, the vote becomes the single, all-important symbol of citizen participation in government. The brilliant Frenchman, Alexis de Tocqueville, described in his Democracy in America, the danger facing all Americans should they become deceived into believing that their mere, sole vote constituted all the duties of a good citizen. He warned that when this development came about, we should become slaves to the real, elitist and plutocratic powers operating behind the veil of democracy. The problem was obvious more than 175 years ago, when Tocqueville wrote his book.
Democracy flourishes where the hard-working, creative middle class perishes, or is not allowed to develop. Its days, however, are numbered. For many reasons, the individual vote today is actually meaningless.
So few people vote today that the illusion is breaking down. Some folks say I am a pessimist, but here you see that I am really an optimist. The middle class is opting out of the illusory democratic system. As a result, they are being herded into supporting the paper money system, which is less and less reliant on the dollar and more and more reliant on the stock market. This too shall pass.
