The Totalitarian State

FED Hiding money because foreign nations are smarter than the U.S. Politicians and have figured out  that lending us money is a bad idea.   Also More BIG BROTHER crap   h/t Bayou Renaissance Man

Apparently not to be out done, Cities are getting into the act - rather than shutting down businesses, they go after kids doing public service.    What kind of moron would do this? Easy: They're called Bureaucrats - they come in all sizes (FED,STATE, COUNTY,CITY,TOWN, and even your local CC&R board of 'No you can't do that on your own property')  They all share one basic characteristic - the view themselves as superior to you.  Heinlein was right:

"In a mature society, 'civil servant' is semantically equal to 'civil master.'"

Because we let it happen, well some of you let it happen - I kept voting against it  - I basically got stuck with it - thanks for nothing.   No, that's not quite right - some of you BEGGED for it, you  berated and demonized the rest of us because we didn't want it - weird - it's starting to eat your children and you're still begging for it.  I suspect you'll be begging for it even as it collapses on your heads and kills you.

I suppose the share another characteristic - they think if they turn everyone into a slave, they'll be happier.   They never get around to the question - happier than what?
