Epiphany

I'm going to lay this one up to hit out of the park for ya: I think I have had an epiphany!

It doesn't matter, right wing or left. This all a distraction - nothing but misinformation and disinformation that keeps us looking in the wrong direction. Politicians at the national level have gained celebrity status and image has trumped substance. What matters is a polished motivational message and a polished image out front. Behind the scenes its all about gathering data and processing that into information to target individual voter groups and even individual voters. That is how all national elections will be won in the future.

Governance, now that's a different matter. MO: Won't matter which celebrity is the POTUS or which group of professional politicos controls the legislature. Misinformation and disinformation will keep them distracted and dysfunctional. Day to day operation of the government will be run by the professional bureaucratic class anyway. The politicos in power for the moment will use IRS, DHS, and DoJ to further their ends.

Obama Care, the Tax Code, and Gun Control legislation is just about all that is needed. The tax code keeps the masses working so hard just to make ends meet they buy whatever the message is. They don't have time to think let alone critically think. They are bombarded by misinformation and disinformation to the point that is nearly a full time job to sort things out. The tax code makes sure that they will NEVER have the luxury of time. Indentured servants for life. Ergo, the government now controls our financial life.

Obamacare takes control of our health options. The massive data base that is created and controlled by what agency? You guessed it - the IRS! Now the government controls our financial health and our physical health and knows all they need to know about each and everyone of us.

Now add enhanced gun registration - Like that won't create a national gun registry. And just to be on the safe side, have DHS drain the supply of ammo by purchasing it all with our tax dollars. Bingo- a totalitarian state! Only we are so inundated with misinformation and disinformation and arguing over this and that in the side show that we don't realize what has happened let alone see the real enemy to do anything about it.

Fate accompli! and we did it to ourselves.
