Syndicalism

I have been likening the Obama Administration to Mussolini and fascism in general, and there are some similarities, but I now see that this is not a terribly good reference. The fascists were sort of part of the rightist movement in Europe. Now before I get chastised for including 'national socialists' with the right, I have to say right here, right now, that our country is like no other country on earth. The right wing in Europe is nothing like the right wing here. Any direct comparison between political spectrums anywhere else and the U.S. will break down because no one else has a country like ours. Never have, never will.

I have, however discovered a new classification of government types that seems to fit the recent news of the Chrysler stuff; Syndicalism. Check out the definition, especially the use of labor unions.

I don't know what to call the current events, except that it is not good. Government is too powerful and intrusive. A free people need to be free. I am drifting farther from the GOP now. Our Federal government is simply too big to be managed by anyone and the frustration is going to build until the last guy to hold the stick when the shinola hits the fan is going to create a monster from his oppostion that will take over in a tyrannical way.

Obama is a good example. Bush drove the left insane. Literally insane. Now they have elected a guy that is over-reacting in the other direction and driving the right insane. I can feel it in myself. The only answer is smaller government. I thought that was what the GOP stood for. Now I don't know where my allegience lays.

I believe that the will of American citizens is to be free. They have been lulled to sleep by affluence and I don't think anyone can predict what would happen once the liberty genie is let out of the bottle. I need more reading material from 100 years ago. There are some lessons there...
