Election in the Rear View

Two weeks gone by and the outcome of the election is starting to come into focus.

I really had hoped that there would be a significant mandate for the Tea Party and its candidates...not that there wasn't an effect...the Tea Party raised the level of change from that of a typical mid-term election to historic numbers.

Unfortunately, the real impact was a bit muted by the fact that the few truly outstanding, consistently conservative candidates mostly lost and nearly all of the hard-core statists won. Most of the changes occurred in the middle where dozens of moderate dems were defeated by dozens of moderate republicans.

The result is that Nancy Pelosi has a smaller but more cohesive leftist bloc and the republican majority is still lacking the necessary fire and steel needed for a revolutionary term.

What needs to be understood here is that the outcome of the congressional elections are nearly meaningless: no vetos can be overidden, no legislation can be passed (without compromise), there will be gridlock.

If the President was a normal politician this would be a good position for the people's sake. But, sadly, the chief executive is not a normal politician.

The fact that all the republicans can do is say no leaves the nation virtually naked in the face of the bureaucratic onslaught we are about to experience.

Obama will now begin to show his true statist colors and rule by fiat through executive orders and regulation - and the republicans can't stop him.

How do we counter this War of Federal Aggression? Two ways: through our state and local governments and by our refusal to participate in the system.

Conspiracy and Consensus

Conspiracy research is exciting, stimulating, infuriating and exhausting.

The world operates on conspracy...oh yes it does. For those of you now rolling your eyes, your skepticism merely reveals a lack of thorough consideration because it is not a matter of whether or not you believe in conspiracies - it is a matter of which conspiracies you believe.

For example, nearly everyone believes World War Two was the result of a conspiracy. Most view the conspiracy as including the Axis powers and a plan to dominate Europe, Asia and perhaps the world. Far fewer see the war as a result of machinations of a cabal of bankers, politicians, and the like who manipulated and then profited from the carnage.

Even in the case of this example, what is deemed historical "fact" and what is conspiracy "theory" is determined by consensus reality - and consensus reality is shaped by the information available and a cultural pressure to conform.

Still, even mainstream, pop culture history, reveals the heretofor hidden information that should move the consensus reality to another position and yet, more often than not, there is no movement.

Eventually, a lot of the nuggets unearthed by conspracy researchers make it into the mainstream, sometimes even become consensus reality, and yet nothing seems to change.

Why is that?

Perhaps it is because there is another consensus which overrides even an understanding that all is not right: consensus conformity.

Consensus conformity is the recognition that truth is irrelevant to success and achievement within the world system. This is the essence of the game, the darkest of the conspiracies, the road to hell.

In order to gain acceptance it is necessary to willingly suspend knowledge and promote, defend, publish what is self-evidently untrue. See this is the soul sacrifice, because an innocent cannot be turned until he is aware and voluntarily rejects what he knows to be true.

Does this help explain why grass roots movements fail?

Separation

The purpose for writing what I do here is not to instruct or lecture but to express myself on select issues and to make public my search, our search, for a way for my family, friends and me to navigate The Way while residing physically in a foreign land.

I know that there is an answer to the question.

Much time has been invested in researching how to remove, or more correctly separate, from the world. Many schemes to rescind numbers, certificates and liscenses have been reviewed. Dozens of legal strategies for overcoming the state with tricks and avoiding traps have been heard.

All of the propositions have one major flaw: they use they system to subvert the system or to defeat the system. Going to one part of the secular government to try to win immunity from another part of the secular government is akin to a chicken going to KFC to be protected from Tyson...you are still gonna be dinner.

If you use a process, designed into the system, to escape the world, what is there about that process that makes you believe you are free?

It seems to me that there are only three ways to separate completely from the world:

1. Leave the territory under their control,
2. Overthrow the rulers,
3. Be set free.

Since the entire world is under the control of the usurper and his forces, there is no where to go.

There are few, a remnant as it were, who seek this liberty, Rebellion is neither possible nor acceptable. I can find no-where where we are instructed by God or true Apostles to engage in an overthrow of any government of the world - locally, nationally or internationally. In fact, i can't even find a suggestion, much less a command, to engage with the world system to modify it. This precludes a dominionist concept of rule on the part of believers.

That leaves liberty by release. Either the slavemasters must voluntarily free us or our price must be paid (i.e. our debt satisfied).

The idea of redemption, Christ as kinsman redeemer, would have to come into play here.

Read and listen.

Come back and talk with...and with them. Clever tricks and word games are not enough. We have other work to do.

P.S. Apologies for the roughness of the post. It was written in one pass. I will edit and expand in the coming days. This is the point of all of it.

Some Advice to Immigrants

Americans think they are free men living in a nation with a tradition of upholding liberty. Unfortunately the freedom is illusory and the institutional liberty is a fable.

We are servants of the state - slaves if you will. We have to be licensed to travel, to marry, to trade, to work and to defend ourselves. We rent our property from the state, pay taxes on income we never received and register our children with the state.

There are some living on this land who are free...if they choose to be: the so-called illegal immigrants.

Those who have migrated here without using the system have the most liberty of anyone anywhere in America.

Of course I am aware that there are many horror stories about the exploitation of some of these good people: sweat shops; dishonest smugglers; forced prostitution and more. These are horrific events and those who are victimized by the evil ones deserve our prayers and assistance.

The vast majority who come here sans documentation, however, are not in these circumstances (nor are they gang members, reconquistas or welfare cheats). The greater majority are people just like us who want to have a home, a family and a decent life.

But they have an advantage we don't have: they are outside the matrix.

Recently there has been talk about an amnesty for the millions who are here without benefit of the the immigration system and it is this talk which is prompting my advice.

DON'T DO IT!! Don't let them put you in the system.

Stay free.

Don't register your children. Don't sign up for benefits. Don't get a social security number. Work for cash; pay in cash. Don't take the citizenship.

Preserve your liberty and reject their offer to become like the rest of us here.
