Collectivist Leadership Paranoia

The thing that keeps collectivist leaders up at night and paranoia all their waking hours is maintaining support from enough groups to keep power. Like pharaohs they can bestow tribute on favored groups in grand public ceremonies but make the punished groups who will pay for it do so out of view. It's a balancing act built upon public ignorance. As long as the collectivist leader can convince you that you are getting something for nothing or at least less than market value then you will tolerate his leadership.

The collectivist leadership deflects responsibility as well. For example, American collectivist leaders and media pundits assert daily that oil prices are going through the roof because those darn Chinese in China and Hindus in India are using so much of it now. Poppycock!!! The amount of gas you can buy for an ounce of gold has remained constant for a very long time. However, when you have to use those Federal Reserve notes that are being printed up and floated as fast as the ink can dry then naturally it is going to cost you more and more of them to fill up. The pattern always is the same when the collectivist leadership is printing up way too much money in order to run their collectivist programs on us. First the gasoline, heating oil, electric and natural gas costs rise as the economy is flooded with dollars. It is these cartel commodities that are owned by the few that can be raised across the board to compensate the cartel for declining currency value. This is followed by a hodge podge of price increases that spiral throughout the economy until the Federal Reserve slows money supply growth to stabilize prices again but at a higher plateau than before the spurt of funny money. Sadly, incomes always lag behind for most people who are just happy to keep their jobs during these banker cartel induced economic downturns.

The most important thing to remember is these collectivist leaders always make things worse but blame this on others, circumstances or just plain bad luck. The prescription is always the same for the disease of collectivism - more collectivism. That means you get less personal freedom, privacy and use of the fruits of your own labor. The collectivist leader on the other hand always has more power over these areas. Fidel went directly for totalitarianism and convinced the Cuban people that he alone could tell them what to do and make them rich. Now it is obvious that the more collectivism that is inflicted on a people the poorer they will become. But my question to you is why do you accept any collectivism whatsoever? Even if we in America are freer than Cubans it does not impress me for I know how much better we would all be if not for our collectivist American ways. I hope one day to own my time, body and money. I want the same for you all as well. A society of wealthy individuals free to control their own lives and the fruits of their own labor are always busy and peaceful. A society that steals from one group to reward other groups is always a paranoid, dangerous place of decline and decadence.
