Seems to me there IS no wheel.

Lack of conspiracy theories aside, the depressing fact about all of this is that if there really isn’t anyone identifiable entity that ‘runs’ the country, there certainly one or more people that can destroy it. I know this because it is happening before our eyes.

God is in control. But Jonah is right. We are free.

Me? I like knowing no one is running things because, for starters, it means I’m free.

Oh, Lord ...

No pilot is required when you are in free-fall and headed for the bottom.

The country is not being “run.” The functions of government are being run.
Big difference.

FTA: "Civil-service laws and union rules make it darn near impossible to fire even grossly incompetent employees for anything short of pederasty or murder."

Jonah, you're usually more alert than this. Please don't try to fire anybody for pederasty, or you may be surprised by the outcome.
