i'm always entertained by those who decide there must be some favored choices to be made, indicating that there's a nirvana somewhere we must find and inhabit. here the writer shows you some of the reality behind: you take sally and i'll take sue, cause there ain't no difference tween the two. big brother is coming closer and won't be stopped by mere words;
This week and next, we’re tackling some of the biggest threats our country faces today.
From the omnipresent “surveillance state” to the
threat of political correctness in America, it seems we’re going
backwards in most areas of personal freedom… And it’s only a matter of
time before we go over the edge.
Drastic times call for drastic measures, as the saying goes. And so this week, we’re not holding back.
In fact, we’re going full-on “Totally Incorrect.”
In today’s essay from Doug, we ask the question: Is
America currently a police state? Doug Casey believes so… and that it’s
only going to get worse.
And while no one can predict exactly when it will
happen, Doug says “the real catalyst is going to be the next 9/11-type
event.” Read on to see why…
Is a police state in the U.S. possible? Absolutely.
That’s because people are essentially the same the
world over, regardless of their culture, religion, race, or
what-have-you. A certain percentage of them are sociopaths.
There is a standard distribution of sociopaths across
time and space. It’s a function of Pareto’s Law, better known as the
80-20 rule. 20% of the people do 80% of the work. Another 20% are
responsible for 80% of the crime. 20% of the population always winds up
with 80% of the wealth. And so forth, through all areas of human
endeavor. This observation can be represented by a bell-shaped curve – a
“standard distribution” – with a small minority at each extreme, but
the large majority in the middle. The people who will take us to a
police state are sociopaths – criminal personalities who don’t respect
the liberty or property of others. And sociopaths gravitate towards
government, and eventually come to control it.
My view is that 80% of human beings are basically
decent, get along, go along types. 20% are what you might call potential
trouble sources, that can go either way. But then you take 20% of that
20% and you’re dealing with the sociopaths........http://www.silverbearcafe.com/private/03.19/happens.html
