Decline of the West - Death By Fiat

There's only one thing more dangerous than a man who breaks the law - and that's a man who MAKES the law - because NO ONE is above him.

--------------

The United States economy is in steep decline.

The signs are all around us - record breaking numbers of foreclosures, jobs being exported left and right, factories shutting down, bankruptcies and homelessness on the rise, and consumer prices and healthcare costs skyrocketing.

All signals are pointing in the same direction - DOWN.

But, WHY? How did we get to where we are?

To understand HOW we got here, we must understand what RULE of LAW means and how it can be manipulated to serve only special interests such that it becomes indistinguishable from RULE by FIAT.

fi·at [fee-aht, -at; fahy-uht, -at] –noun

    1. an authoritative decree, sanction, or order: a royal fiat.
    2. a formula containing the word fiat, by which a person in authority gives sanction.
    3. an arbitrary decree or pronouncement, esp. by a person or group of persons having absolute authority to enforce it: The king ruled by fiat.

Most people think that Rule by Fiat is corrupt and objectionable while Rule of Law is exemplary and desirable, when in fact the latter can easily degenerate into the former.

If the essential characteristic of the law is the same (i.e., unjust), then the only difference between a monarchy, under which people are commonly known to be 'ruled by fiat,' and a "democracy" under which people are commonly understood to be 'ruled by law,' is simply a formality.

In other words, the democratic process underwhich we are supposedly "ruled by law" is nothing but a charade.

Take for example, the Federal Reserve Act, passed into law in 1913. The United States was not a monarchy at the time, but whether passed by Congress, "democratically" or decreed as fiat by a King, the law's common feature is that it favors one group of people to the detriment of others.

In other words, it is corrupt and UNJUST.

And just as LAWS decreed by FIAT favor one group of people over others, private MONEY created by FIAT does the same.

In fact, the reason people prefer that money be based on something tangible is so that it cannot be manipulated to favor one group over another.

Of course, many people believe that money should be based on gold or silver. I disagree, but that's the subject of a different post.

My point is that it's not just our FIAT money system that is destroying our nation - it's our FIAT legal system too.

Americans cannot remedy the problems that we face as a nation today, unless we realize that our system of democracy is seriously flawed - it enables a corrupt few to RULE by FIAT over the vast majority.

Of course, first and foremost, we must dismantle the monopoly of our FIAT money supply.

But, we must also disarm the corrupt process that enables vipers and extortionists to "legally" establish their RULE by FIAT.

AMERICANS MUST BAN LOBBYING IN CONGRESS.

WE MUST MAKE SURE THAT OUR GOVERNMENT IS BY THE PEOPLE AND FOR THE PEOPLE - REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT THEY HAVE MONEY.

If we don't, the US will be condemned to CERTAIN DEATH by FIAT.

Absolute authority in itself is not that bad.

If the absolute authority rules for his subjects and if it has enough power and wisdom to back his just actions.

The problem is that usually that leadership forgets its duty as guardian of its people and becomes a leech instead. Thats why the west has democracy to prevent this. At least that is what we are told in school.

I know zionism is based on the notion of a chosen few ruling the rest but...
just imagine for example that the zionists had even more control than they have now, however they used that power to make the world a better place or at least better for their subjects and neutral to outsiders.
Would you still try to have government for the people?
