God's Justice, Awakening
MODERN MAINSTREAM AMERICAN CONSERVATISM is largely underwritten by Charles and David Koch, who spend millions each election cycle purchasing political office for republican senators and representatives. On the day that Obama was inaugurated, a small elite group of billionaires convened in California to decide how to destroy his presidency, and they have succeeded rather well, to the extent that, having sabotaged nearly all of Obama's plans, they can now honestly accuse Obama of having accomplished little. The father Fred Koch, made his fortune by installing oil refineries for Stalinist Russia and Hitlerist Germany, then raising his sons in his own image, that of ultraconservative founding members of the John birch society. Their overarching goals are the elimination of taxes, the cancellation of all government welfare programs, and the withdrawal of the United States from the United Nations. they could be described as "libertarians", or "anarchists". Their relationship to trump is something of a mystery, but we can assume that even if they despise Trump, they will support him if only to defeat Hillary. One must bear in mind that we are talking about people who accused President Eisenhower of being a communist. Like most extreme right wingers, they considers themselves the potential saviors of America, and they consider all manifestations of government to be "creeping socialism". We may further assume that the Koch brothers would prefer privately owned for profit police and fire departments, or no police and fire protection at all. What we are up against in america is a coterie of immensely wealthy, ultra conservative operatives who are perfectly willing to spend large [arts of their fortunes to make America great again, by returning it to the society it was in the eighteen nineties, the "gilded age", when the concentration of wealth was nearly as great as it is now. We are confronted with an uneducated, gullible electorate which supports much of this, evidently entirely oblivious to its own interests. "If the people", said Jefferson, "become inattentive to the affairs of government, the legislators and magistrates shall divide the nation into two classes, wolves, and sheep". this, they ultra wealthy ultra conservative coterie has long since done. Jefferson also said: "I tremble for my country, when I reflect that god is just, and that his justice cannot sleep forever." Until we the people rise up and put people like the Koch brothers where they belong, which is on tHE sidelines of teh body politic, we will soon witness the awakening of God's justice.......THANKS FOR SHARING THIS SITE WITH OTHERS!
