"From Federalist 47:
'The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, selfappointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.'"
Very good.
Consider the blatant actions of this Administration to work to "accumulate" powers in the "same (Progressive) hands" and the implications of those actions for future generations.
One other implication of such action is the "hordes" of bureaucrats who accompany each elected/appointed official and who will remain in their positions long after the said officials are gone from office.
In a discussion with a Cabinet official's office during the Reagan term, the official commented that such bureaucrats work like termites to undermine and to thwart the actions of those who, like Reagan, wish to limit the size and scope of government by a return to Constitutional principles.
The Founders never envisioned such unelected and unappointed persons to possess such power to oppress "the People."
Comments?
I recall reading that then President Clinton changed some government positions from “Executive appointments” to standard full-time employment, thereby removing any possibility of change within these offices as a new party gained the Executive position.
This increased the liberals/bureaucratic hold on our government.
As the people increased their reliance on government hand-outs and power-grabs (instead of self-reliance), they will not accept government cutbacks with graciousness or understanding. They believe in having government provide to them - - and voted for more of this two years ago. They truly believe this is owed to them.
Sorry to say this, but I believe that the changes necessary to restore our republic will have some forms of violence attached. I pray that if this becomes true, it is minimal.
