Stock market gains shifted Wednesday from Operation Prison Camp to small caps. For the past two years, 90% of the gains have been digital because of the over-arching green-fascist plan to wrench man into an enhanced-human experience in 15 minute cities. The shift is significant because it is a sharp move to the positive. Small caps have massive under-utilized capacity and it is there, and only there that real growth can happen. Since Covid, multinationals, the wedded partners of Agenda 2030, have lost the confidence of the public. No one trusts Big Pharma, Big Ag, Big Government any more. The WEF, UN and WHO are hated and rightly distrusted. The digital titans building a digital prison, 15 minute cities and Agenda 2030/50/90, are widely seen as demonic, destructive.
The inexorable repression, the slow squeezing of the human into more a malleable, vegan, bug eating, docile, collectivist robot will not work. We aren’t accepting it. The rage, the anger, the mockery, the ascendance of Trump, of MAGA, of right-wing, anti-government populism all across the world is all down to this. The ideas don’t work. All they do is create anger, rebellion, division, and crime. And depression, drug addiction, women refusing to marry and have children, the direct end of humanity. Why have children when the rest of your life means being squeezed into a smaller and broker version of yourself?
The glitch is here: the polite left, the Ivy educated, the ones who think they know better, have circumvented the constitution, the balance of powers, and created a super-state, an entirely Prussian monster, a throwback to the days of Kings, the Star Chamber and tyranny, an abrogation of all power to themselves. They judge themselves, they never suffer consequences for their failures. Across the board, they have placed themselves above the law.
Their fate will be the same as Charles 1, who tried the same thing, beheaded in public.
Philip Hamburger, America’s acknowledged expert on the Administrative State, and the man who brought down Chevron, points out, “the gain in popular suffrage has been accompanied by disdain for the choices made through a representative system and a corresponding shift of legislative power out of Congress.”
The overturning of Chevron came in the most humble of clothing. In the Atlantic fishery, the government wants to make sure, correctly, that the fishery isn’t being depleted by over-fishing. So the government forced all boats to have a government official on board at all times. This cost $700 a day, paid by the boat owner, and for many it eliminated any profit they might make. The statute was silent as to who paid that bill, and so the government said the fisher paid. No recourse. No other solution.
If the statute is silent or ambiguous, the bureaucrat decides. Law deference. This translated to near everything. Agencies could decide what they wanted to do. They could create law, enforce it, and if challenged and brought before a judge, could cite Chevron Deference. In the absence of clear direction from Congress, the bureaucrat was all-powerful. And when it came to the facts of the case, the bureaucrat decided what facts were the real facts. Fact deference.
Chevron, brought and won in 1984 by the Rockefeller-founded Natural Resource Defence Council, (NDRC) was all about the Rockefeller push to sequester resources from “the people” and de-develop the earth in order to “save” it. Chevron morphed fast into destroying the economy in order to “save” it. It was the first incursion into American governance in the plan to create a World Government, a massive over-arching Administrative State that would control everything not nailed down.
The knock-on effects were legion, literally demonic and beyond counting. It moved power into the homogenized class of Ivy Leaguers who think they know better and actually know nothing about real life. It severely threatened civil liberties, it gutted the judiciary, it gutted Congress, it put all the power in the executive, the office of the President who directed the agencies. It made Congressmen and women into fundraisers and stripped them of their primary duty to collaborate while writing statutes. It made them trivial showmen. It stripped the will of the people from their government.
And it was deliberate. Peter Orszag, Obama’s Director of the Office of Management and Budget stated that “America needs to overcome the resulting “gridlock of our political institutions by making them a bit less democratic”.
The foundational idea that humans need to be restricted, the population drawn down because of resources, is dead wrong. It is the stated purpose of every tyrant who ever lived, afraid of the power of his or her people. It flies in the face of reality. Every single problem man experiences can be solved, given enough self-determination which leads to creativity. And accountability. That doesn’t work? Fine, let’s try this. Until something works. Creative destruction is necessary.
But today, there is no accountability. No one has suffered for the failures of Covid, the Russia Hoax, the Afghanistan withdrawal. No investigation ever turns up a culprit. Nothing is fixed. Everyone guilty is quietly cashed out and vanishes into a life of ease. Agency bureaucrats are more powerful than the most autocratic rulers who ever lived. And everything they do turns to crap. They succeed at nothing. They have almost bankrupted the entire world with their debt. We need MOAR. MOAR TAX MONEY NOW. SHUT UP SHUT UP OR WE WILL JAIL YOU. They are monkeys throwing excrement, frantic as everything they try, fails. Even the attempt to assassinate Trump failed.
Chevron Deference started all this. It was an artful, sleazy, triumph for the enemies of democracy. It meant that in any situation the government always won. If you questioned the statement by government that there is no water for your housing development, your ranch, your farm, asserting that it hadn’t been investigated properly, any politician or judge would shrug and say, “The Department of Interior’s hydrologists say so”.
As wearingly repeated in Absurdistan, in the 1970’s the Ministries under the Department of Interior were twisted towards preventing growth. This followed on from the formal policy introduced by Henry Kissinger, a Rockefeller pet and puppet, and formally adopted by Richard Nixon, that the American population must be drawn down otherwise we would run out of resources. From then on, all science asserted by Interior’s scientists and engineers bolstered the policy that we were using too many of the earth’s resources and had to be stopped. If you questioned the science, your local councillor or representative would have to shrug and say, sorry. Fact deference. The government decides the facts. You don’t.
If you took them to court, judges were forced to say, the government is right. Law deference. Which gave all the power to the administrative state. Not to elected representatives or elected judges.
It’s not that the government moves to laboriously, it’s that the left tries to do things with the government it was not intended to do or be involved in. Democrats keep trying to push their far left agenda and the genius of the Constitution keeps preserving the constitutional republic.
