“Madison,1795…Of all the enemies to public liberty war is, perhaps, the most to be dreaded, because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes; and armies, and debts, and taxes are the known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few. In war, too, the discretionary power of the Executive is extended; its influence in dealing out offices, honors, and emoluments is multiplied; and all the means of seducing the minds, are added to those of subduing the force, of the people. The same malignant aspect in republicanism may be traced in the inequality of fortunes, and the opportunities of fraud, growing out of a state of war, and in the degeneracy of manners and of morals engendered by both. No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare.”
You are spot on! However, as I have as my study has progressed I am starting to come to the conclusion that perhaps its that way on purpose. I mean, think about the massive, generational grift and transfer of wealth from the states united? The entire realm, everyone, "eats off of us."
The dollar amount is incalculable. So I believe while people like us opine about who, what, when, where and how, the devils already "know" the plot, and they have been telling the people "anything else" while they fulfill it.
Secular religion. They represent the "Priest Class" of such. The people are just mind washed to the fullest degree. They "need" a savior, someone to Shepard them. Sad.
....same as it ever was!

Look at those idiots clapping. As he talks abot non-existent problems that MUST be solved.
Perhaps he is simply communicating with his choir.
You are right, I am appalled. And this is the best that Congress can do? God help us.
"God help us." He has. He has given us eyes to see the evil. We can manage the rest.
