OBAMA’S PARADIGM TO TYRANNY AS TOLD BY GARRY KASPAROV & AYN RAND

Dictatorships, especially the one man variety like Russia’s are unpredictable, but they do operate on logical underlying principles. They often come to power with popular support and a mandate to solve a crisis. Once a firm grip on power is achieved, the junta or supreme leader blames his predecessors for any problems, and he cracks down on rights. With democracy dead and civil society hunted to extinction, the only was left to make legitimate claim on power is confrontation and conflict. Propaganda is ratcheted up against mythical fifth columnists and usual scapegoats, like immigrants and minorities. The next and usual final phase arrives when other tricks have become stale. Domestic enemies are never threatening enough- and eventually there i no one left to persecute, as in the Soviet Union under Joseph Stalin – so the dictator looks abroad, inevitably finding a “national interest: to defend across a conventional border.  Gary Kasparov

The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.

Ayn Rand

We are fast approaching the stage of the ultimate inversion: the stage where the government is free to do anything it pleases, while the citizens may act only by permission; which is the stage of the darkest periods of human history, the stage of rule by brute force.

  58. Any INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE will never give attention with any specific extreme taxation expenses, in order that you are really taking that with the dirt bike pants by simply not necessarily altering your own tax burden monthly payments.
