Getting a Grip on Reality




"When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion - when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - when you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - when you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don't protect you against them, but protect them against you - when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - you may know that your society is doomed." ~ Ayn Rand

Like America’s Founding Fathers, Ayn Rand understood human nature and those who desire power over others. In the mid-20th century, she foresaw exactly what America and the world is experiencing today.

When you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work

"Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely." ~ Lord Acton 

In our world today, the minions of the evil World Economic Forum wield  the power of unlimited dark money, and that dark money corrupts the powerful government officials absolutely. Do you doubt my observation?  I give you the Biden crime family and many in the United States Congress who somehow got filthy rich on their government salaries. To paraphrase Ayn Rand, we can evade the truth, but we cannot evade the consequences of evading the truth.

 In order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing

 

"If a society is to be free, its government has to be controlled." ~ Ayn Rand

 Herein lies the very description of government bureaucrats worldwide.  In America alone there are literally tons of administrative regulations created by bureaucrats that produce nothing.  As often as not, these bureaucrats know little or nothing about what they are regulating and have no concern about the cost of their edicts or even if the edicts make sense.  More often than not, these edicts conflict with the edicts of some other ignorant bureaucrat in some other agency.  This is simply the product of a massively bloated government, of which the United States of America is a prime example.

 When a government has too many bureaucrats, the result is the creation of more rules and regulations.  These creations are not to improve the system; they are for the bureaucrats to justify their existence and pay check.  That is a form of soft corruption.  Too often these creations are treated as if they were laws passed through the legislative process.  Wake up people; they are not laws.  But for more than a half century, We the People have allowed them to get away with it. Once again to paraphrase Rand, we can evade the reality that we allowed government to get out of control, but we cannot evade the reality of the consequences of evading the reality of our out of control government.

When you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice

"An honest man is one who knows that he can't consume more than he has produced." ~ Ayn Rand

When governments refuse to protect their citizens and government officials are publically revealed as corrupt, the only possible result is lawless chaos. Governments that advertise they will no longer enforce the laws that protects citizens and businesses are sanctioning the low life thugs who are going to come out of the woodwork and steal everything they can. In American Democrat controlled jurisdictions, we see that every day. When there are no consequences for dishonesty, then honesty indeed becomes self-sacrifice or even a liability. In plain Any Rand fashion, you can evade the reality that lawlessness is occurring, but you cannot evade the consequences of evading the reality of that lawlessness.

"When you have made evil the means of survival, do not expect men to remain good. Do not expect them to stay moral and lose their lives for the purpose of becoming the fodder of the immoral. Do not expect them to produce, when production is punished and looting rewarded. Do not ask, "Who is destroying the world?" You are." ~ Ayn Rand

You can evade reality, but you can’t evade the consequences of evading reality. Reality is an unforgiving and relentless taskmaster. Get a grip on reality or pay the terrible price.
