There are many claims about Republicans and Democrats that are false. However, don’t think for one second that I’m defending the Political Duopoly. The claim most often heard is either: “Democrats are ‘Socialists’!” or “Republicans are ‘Nazis’!”. Neither of these claims is acurate, both parties – actually two parts of the same “Ruling Party” – are FASCISTS! Not every member of the Republican or Democratic Party are fascists, there are a few that are freedom loving people, there are even a few avowed Socialists; but the leadership of the Ruling Party is fascists and they know it. The problem is that they don’t want YOU to know the truth.
Th fact is that the two “sides” of the Ruling Party must have the appearance of disagreement in order to keep themselves in power. It is this scam that ensures the debate about taxation of ones earnings to be a debate over a 4% difference in preferred tax rates - 35% or 39% for the highest tax-bracket. The real debate isn’t even a blip on their radar screen – taxation of ones livelyhood.
This scam also ensures the debate over fiscal policy be between “tax and spend” or “borrow and spend”; whereas the real debate should be about unconstitutional spending and a balanced budget.
It is these minute differences that allows the Ruling Party to throw out labels (Socialsts vs Nazi; conservative vs liberal) that the media pushes to the people instead allowing REAL debate. Because if a real debate of the issues were allowed with all sides being equally heard, it would be clear that Republicans and Democrats agree far more than they disagree and it would be clear they agree on Fascism, a word you hardly ever hear them mention.
But, exactly what is fascism? Mussolini described “fascism” as “Corporatism”; a blending of government and “free-market” business. One need only look back to last year to clearly see that is happening in the United States. Sure, it had been going on well before the government take-over of Chrysler or the 2008 “banking bail-out”. Look at the Savings and Loan debacle from the 80’s or even the “regulation” of certain industries to supress competition. Sure, there are several oil, gas and electric companies, but few offering REAL alternatives. That’s because the Fascist Ruling Party doesn’t want you to have an alternative. They want you to have the appearance of choice, without actually having a choice. Some have called this tactic “smoke and mirrors”, but I say it’s smoke, minus the mirrors but instead insert an orifice.
If the Ruling Party really wanted you to have a choice, they wouldn’t make it difficult for other candidates to get on the ballot, they would allow other candidates in the “debates” and they wouldn’t hide voting results inside electronic machines with no paper trail.
A comedian once joked, “We have the best politicians money can buy”. That’s no joke, sadly it’s true and could be re-worded to say “we have horrible politicians because they’ve been bought”. The Ruling Party has been bought and paid for by big business and now big government is returning the favor. Obama and the Democrats are not a Socialists, Bush and the Republicans are not Nazis; they’re all Fascists – that’s their dirty little secret.
