Americans' Constitution Obsession
As is the case with all great philosophical thinkers, my thoughts have come to rest on a single item, and in my case it is the Constitution. I see it clearly as the cause of all the problems in America. Because it is running America. And how is America running these days? well slower and slower, interspersed with campaigns of killing sprees - which I approve of but they rarely solve anything - so, like i say, American is running slower and slower, interspersed with campaigns of killing sprees in lands not our own.
Here on the homefront however, while the soldiers are off in distant lands killing non Americans, local police and law enforcement agencies maintain a continuing warfare of quiet and continuous incursion into the liberty of Americans via jail, or kidnapping, and the confiscation of personal belongings of Americans via fines and confiscations.
The Constitution was created in the narcissistic belief that a handful of councilors could direct the human inhabitants of the newly independent American colonies better than the inhabitants themselves could. The councilors then drafted some paperwork, or a very long essay or proclamation as if from the King that proclaimed "a loftiness" exists among these here framers of this here proclamation: a loftiness as defined by the councilors. This loftiness, these men continued, is an essay that comes from the mind and heart of the Supreme Architect of the Universe, who we, as Mastor Masons, are united with via the mysteries of the ages which you do not know. They continued, this paper, this essay, this term paper, this book report, this thing we will call a Constitution written by writers unable to find an audience via fiction or journalistic capability, is filled with dozens of unwarranted assumptions and proclamations of validity and sweeping generalizations assumed to be true without testing or validation. It is a godlike presentation declaring that the Constitution is the way things are done when things are done properly. The Constitution is narcissism by committee rather than by demagogue. This is called "an advancement in human government" by the people who call things things. It is, actually, however, not an advancement in human government, it is only the latest version of the "normal human government" - Which is always socialist, and always and onerous to everyone but the people actually IN the government. To the people IN the government it is not onerous at all, no no, it is, rather, organized raiding parties with no resistance, the seizure and confiscation of other peoples' things, the seizure and confiscation of other people entirely, and it is all very profitable and not at all onerous.
