Mahilena's Debunking Libertarianism/Conservatism ...

Limited Government is not the same as a non-benevolent "small Government"

THE SIZE OF GOVERNMENT is not inscribed into the CONSTITUTION.. Limited Government is not the same as small government. Yes Limited Government means decision making is distributed somewhat, but the Founders never talked about "small" or "big" government, yet they INSTITUTED CONSITUTIONAL SOCIALISM which is Article I section 8 THE STAND ALONE power not subjected by the other enumerated powers to TAX FOR THE GENERAL WELFARE AND NATIONAL DEFENSE
Americans like Government programs, Conservatism lost all wars on small government, besides losing the American Revolution and the Confederacy, they lost on the New Deal, The Great Society, the Gold Standard...Americans like the notion of LIMITED GOVERNMENT, they confuse this with small government which was never any idea the founders had. With Sociocultural Evolution and increasing complexity, Government has no choice but to grow but with our independence from the Gold Standard and having the great Central Banking system we have we can never either go bankrupt, so Americans only uneducated and in the rural areas where they only have access to rightwing media are those who support the Small Government Bull

The history of our nation has many rich and vibrant hues—some of them red.

Leeches and Moochers - The spirit of Capitalism dating back to Calvin protestantism

Concept of Makers and Takers dates back to Calvinism Predestination - God chose some people for salvation and others for damnation

In Calvinism Worldly success became one measure of that self-confidence and Salvation...which was no longer the Catholic sacrament

In Calvinism being poor was perceived as laziness, burdening others, and an affront to God; by not working, one failed to glorify God.

The Republican Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism

Free market principles, individual liberty, and limited government are memes for a culture of corporatism, greed, selfishness and death

 

Gun, Bible, God and Country are the cover up meme's of a culture of hate, deception and death

Conservative Hating the Poor but Loving Jesus? http://www.redletterchristians.org/hating-poor-loving-jesus/ …

By contrast here is the constitutional reality

Article 1 section 8 Taxing for the General Welfare >Full Constitutionality of Federal spending http://bit.ly/SSPV63 

 AND SO THIS IS WHY CONSERVATIVES PREFER THE CONFEDERATE CONSTITUTION SINCE IT ELIMINATED THE GENERAL WELFARE CLAUSE, ADHERED TO PROPERTY RIGHTS OF SLAVE OWNERS, AND STATE RIGHTS

"One grave weakness in the U.S. Constitution is the "general welfare" clause, which the Confederate Constitution eliminated." http://mises.org/freemarket_detail.aspx?control=353

No wonder conservatives attack our constitution i.e., the US Constitution as if it was theirs!!!

In a Libertarian's mind: Articles of Confederation are preferable over the Constitution...

Anyways, here is the Libertarian, TEAPARTY CONFEDERATE view..

"We continually hear about restoring the meaning, intent and spirit of the Constitution. Few know that we had a far preferable blueprint for a federation before the 1789 U.S. Constitution. It was called the Articles of Confederation. Have you ever read it? If not you should. At the outset it’s opening declaration has - Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union Between the States. Some may want to misconstrue that perpetual means subordinate. In Article II, the basis for union is stated with total clarity - Each state retains its sovereignty, freedom and independence, and every power, jurisdiction and right which is not by this Confederation expressly delegated to the United States in Congress assembled.

Concern for national defense, diplomacy and treaties, assumption of war debt, extradition to state courts, unencumbered travel and commerce, coinage and adjudicator of disputes between states are subjects of mention. Prohibitions on specific areas for states are listed, while the few sections of administration by "a Committee of the States" are noted.

No doubt the U.S. Constitution, added valuable protections against a tyrannical central government in the Bill of Rights. But, the nature of the expanded roles for the executive and judicial branches in that same - U.S. Constitution - elevating them to a theoretical and dubious co-equal status, created the inevitable usurpation of the legitimate power of the independent states. We all know the tragic history of the unimpeded executive despotism in America. Far fewer understand the catastrophic precedent in the decision of Chief Justice John Marshall in Marbury vs Madison - placing the Supreme Court as the arbiter of the constitutionality of congressional legislation. The mere restoration to the constraints in the 1789 U.S. Constitution will not revive the Republic from its demise into an absolutist oppressor. Only a systemic dismantling of that central government, returning primacy back to individual states will restore the vision of the American Revolution."
