Time to revolutionize the government without firing a shot

The world may be experiencing dangerous, threatening, chaotic times but it’s not much different to many previous centuries. It’s obvious to intelligent, rational, informed observers that politics in the USA is mere political theatre arranged and orchestrated by rich banksters, corrupt officials and enablers, to make naïve, trusting voters think their votes determine policies and economics. But in reality, money talks and voters can only choose between the devil they know and the devil they don’t know. It’s the same in most other countries. Electronic voting eliminates freedom of speech and choice because voters are forced to choose between two or three devils-in-disguise. Why should the electorate continue to be their fools and give ascent to the sham they call democracy? These rich banksters and mafia types cheat honest citizens and turn them into powerless debt slaves and poor foot soldiers who help wage economic and physical warfare on innocent countries.

It’s time to express disapproval of the oppressive political system and fraudulent debt-based economy and get rid of corrupt federal and judicial officials. Citizens should ignore the ballot and rather declare a national protest by voting with their labor and any savings they have. That means everyone must agree to show their disapproval of and distrust in the powers that be by selling their shares and government bonds on the date of the next election, withdraw all their deposits from banks and invest in their local communities with honest people and businesses they know and trust. This is something few voters are prepared to do, especially city-dwellers, but the only way to remove the illegitimate powers of the federal government and reserve bank. It’s time for US citizens to fight back with legitimate economic warfare and force the federal government and reserve bank to back down and serve the interests of the public.

To gain insight into the way people behave and experience society, we can divide people into several different categories based on two primary dimensions of human nature, namely (1) pro-social versus anti-social and (2) optimistic versus pessimistic. These two fundamental dimensions include a mid-range position for those who are neither pro-social nor anti-social but simply indifferent and a position for those who are realists.

Pro-social people are empathetic, caring, generous, responsible, honest and fair, while anti-social people are the opposite. Concepts for optimistic, realistic and pessimistic need no clarification.

Psychopaths are anti-social; and many are optimistic. These types of psychopaths might be congenial and some even generous, but the good impressions they make are usually fabricated to win and then abuse the trust of others. Optimistic psychopaths tend to be admired and often chosen as leaders. They may be creative cheats and wheeler-dealers, and some might even join religious organizations to further their own interests. 

Pessimistic anti-social people tend to be cynical and struggle to make a success of their lives. Many are shunned and as a result experience frustration, anger or emotional disorders, others use drugs or alcohol to relieve or escape from frustration or disappointment, others blame parents and authority figures for their failure and engage in chronic criminal behaviour as a way of obtaining what they believe society owes them.

Pro-social optimists respond positively to the Christian interpretation of the Bible and similar non-Christian religions which these types of people adopt for themselves because those beliefs and doctrines support their pro-social attitudes and actions. Unfortunately, their optimism makes them easy victims of psychopaths.

A good proportion of the population are pro-social and realistic. They generally ignore or dismiss religion as antiquated, unreasonable, or delusional but respond positively to social programs, institutions and individuals who work for the good of everyone.

Most people are socially indifferent. They are only consistently honest when they know they will get caught for dishonesty. They give for the sake of getting in return and only contribute enough to achieve social respectability. They demand fairness but deny their own mistakes and short-comings. Religion is not important for these types.

Pro-social pessimists are a rare type. It sounds like a contradiction in terms, but pro-social pessimists are typically those who were once realistic or optimistic, but circumstances continued to frustrate and disappoint them for many years until nothing seemed to change their expectations for the future. Their expectations become self-fulfilling and they became permanently pessimistic. They typically experience depression and may use drugs or alcohol as relief or escape but refrain from criminal behaviour.

Realistic anti-social people are typically unconventional and/or loners. They may be creative cheats and wheeler-dealers, or productive crazy scientists or explorers who cause little or no trouble for others.

Optimism versus pessimism is largely determined by experience and much can be done to change this sentiment and condition even if it has become somewhat entrenched. But the pro-social versus anti-social trait is largely determined by genetic constitution. Anti-social people usually cause problems for the rest of society. In fact, unfairness, disappointment, frustration, anxiety and depression are often the result of other people’s anti-social behaviour. This characteristic has far reaching effects but is almost impossible to treat and change. For that reason, anti-social people should be identified by accurate psychometric testing at an early stage in life and their behaviour more closely monitored than the rest of society. Selection of leaders should screen for anti-social people and highlight their trait and condition so that everyone knows what to expect from them.

A great deal of society’s problems will be solved if this policy were put into practice, but unfortunately, most leading political, judicial, financial and religious leaders are anti-social and would never agree to this policy. That should be no reason to continue allowing them to have their way. Unfortunately, most people are indifferent. They don’t care, so long as they are not seriously affected by other people’s frustrations and suffering and the psychopaths in charge love it that way. So, the frustrations and suffering which so many people have had for thousands of years is destined to continue. We don’t have to blame political, judicial, financial and religious leaders. Indifferent people are just as much to blame for tolerating the misbehaviour of anti-social people. I don’t; but I’m only one person trying to help others see the light and do the right thing to revolutionize the government.
