REBELLION BREWING [UPDATED]
...What we are seeing in Minnesota, and elsewhere around the country, is not a sane approach to public policy, but rather the manifestation of a proto-fascist urge to exercise total control over everyone’s life. In this regard, Tim Walz is certainly among the worst, but he is not alone. The sad reality is that millions of Americans have happily dispensed with just about every known freedom–you can’t leave your house without government permission!–in hopes of avoiding a respiratory virus that is dangerous to the elderly whose health is already severely compromised, but not noticed by most under the age of 70 who contract it. Home of the brave, indeed.

The 2 dollar dictators are relying on two pronounced human weaknesses or flaws that exist in a great many people. The first flaw is that many people lack any real sense of meaning in their lives. I know this is perverse, but way too many people gain a sense of personal importance by snitching on their fellow human beings. This helps to temporarily alleviate their lack of true self-esteem which is gained by genuine personal accomplishment. The snitch feels he or she is accomplishing something by tattling on a fellow human being. The second flaw in a great many of today's Americans is their lack of understanding of the concept and philosophy of structured liberty. They see nothing wrong with government mandating that healthy people must stay at home, or wear masks in public. Washington. Jefferson, and Madison all realized there are places government must not go, if men are to live in liberty. They would be aghast at both what is being done at the state and local government levels in regards to this pandemic, AND to the ACCEPTANCE of the state and local governments' dictatorial actions by a large segment of the citizenry.
