Reset Government

American values include love of liberty and responsibility, independence, self reliance, self determination, hard work, thrift, trust in God, fairness and skepticism. Missouri is the ‘show me’ state. We coined adages like ‘figures don’t lie, but liars figure’. Our values do not include environmentalism, socialism, communism, globalism, collectivism, bribery, graft or corruption.

The Federal Government has lost its credibility little by little over the past 100 years until we are convinced of the necessity to reset our government back to a date when it worked, just like we would reset a computer that had been corrupted with worms and viruses.

The judiciary made major decisions that are clearly wrong and based on twisted interpretations of the law. They invented case law to allow judges to build on the errors of past decisions. They led the way to encourage government to totally ignore the Constitution as written.

The legislature found ways to put the will of the people and the common good aside to serve special interests They allow themselves to deal in bribery and extortion. They have conspired to hide corrupt Bills, that would never pass on their own, to be buried instead in amendments to Omnibus Bills. They have engaged in ‘horse trading’ and gaming with no regard for the damage the build-up of bad law and malinvestment would create. This is not what we had in mind for Congress. The Congress delegated its powers away to the extent that it cannot find its way back to its own responsibilities. The Federal Reserve coins whatever money it wants with no regard for sound money. The infiltration of global socialists have made foreign aid a sacred cow. The regulators in the Executive Branch make up whatever regulations they want, with no regard to the intent of the laws passed by Congress. The Congress is paid by special interests to make no attempt to correct these abuses.

The Executive has routinely abused its power to support the whims of the courts, the special interests, the globalists and the destructive path we’ve been on for 100 years. We have evolved into an insolvent socialist state and are heading for a communist world government. Presidents are not obliged to sign Omnibus Spending Bills stuffed with corrupt amendments and bad law, but they have all caved in to the process. Presidents should not be free to issue Executive Orders to create laws that would not have passed the Congress.

Together, all three branches have conspired to bribe scientists to support unlikely theories to support political objectives. They have over-subsidized and totally ruined healthcare and education by making it unaffordable. They have assumed unsustainable liabilities from bank and insurance bailouts and codified it in Dodd Frank.

The Federal Reserve bought $1 trillion in toxic student loans and $4 trillion in toxic securities with printed money. They have made loans and loan guarantees for another $20 trillion in global toxic assets. They’ve leveraged our liabilities to the point that further spending, borrowing and printing money must be reversed substantially, driving unemployment higher.

They are allowing federal agencies to dismantle our ability to grow food and are attempting to undermine our right to private property and our right to secure affordable energy in the name of environmentalism. They have entered into a pact with communist globalists to sell us down the river and they’re trying to be very quiet about it. Our distain for the errors of our government over the past 100 years has accumulated and we want the damage stopped and reversed.

They have obstructed our ability to be productive. They conspired to remove manufacturing from the States. They shut down timber harvesting, mining, oil and gas exploration. They have given away vast amounts of our money to corrupt foreign governments and organizations.

All of our founding documents describe a government whose sole purpose is to preserve our freedom and support a free enterprise system to sustain our security, prosperity and independence. That meritocracy is being dismantled by the very government sworn to protect it.

If we object loudly, they will retreat and cease the destruction of our free market system and our prosperity...for a while. Then, if we haven’t dismantled the corrupt infrastructure they have built, they will try again. Modern global communists are very patient. We need to reset the government back to 1900 to make it a little harder for this evil to resurrect itself.

It is absolutely necessary to restrict campaign contributions to registered voters who would be allowed to make contributions only to those candidates who appear on their ballot. This needs to happen NOW.
