Never understand why Richard "I am not a crook" Nixon proposed the EPA....corporations were doing a great job protecting the environment.
He was a puppet of the Rockefeller family trust.
Comprende ora??
EPA history shows they don't prevent pollution by major corporations but they are hell on wheels against the small guys, particularly land holding farmers.
The political landscape in America over the past several decades can be explained simply through the lens of the Hegelian Dialectic.
Thesis (Liberal Agenda) Anti Thesis (Republican politicians) Synthesis (Liberals along with RINOS pass statist agenda).
This is why the establishment Republicans fight tooth and nail for candidates like Mike Castle, Lisa Murkowski and John McCain; they are the ones who will help deliver the synthesis in the name of compromise which in the end strips us of more and more of our liberties.
The last thing the GOP leadership needs are more Conservatives who will make it much more difficult for them to hide their true intentions, greed, power and ideology. (Attacks on Demint perfect example).
As long as McConnell, Cornyn and Boehner have enough RINOS around they can pose as phony Conservatives while blaming the so called mavericks for voting along liberal lines.(
They do this through a RINO voting rotation). Alexander and Corker have certainly served more than their time in the barrel this year, of that there can be no doubt.
Notice that over the years you hear very little of suspended or pulled chairmanships from those who vote in direct opposition to the Constitution, constituents and party leadership on major pieces of legislation.
No, in fact during the primaries, these are the same politicians that the leadership in many cases pour millions of dollars along with other resources to defeat the same type of Conservatives they claim to be.
Here is a good example; Boehner nominated Fred Upton to be chairman of the energy and commerce committee although there were more qualified and senior representatives he could have nominated and when the vote came up it was unanimous, no one voted against him.
Upton was the rep who wrote the bill to ban incondescent light bulbs and now he will have a great deal to say about environmental policy.
I have no problem with having the EPA as an agency but what I do have a problem with is the unchecked power they have. Our police forces just enforce the law, not make them as they go. The EPA has done just that and I think it's completely wrong. No, I do not want to live in China, but for most of the EPA their vision is unrealistically in the opposite direction. They should be there to enforce laws passed by congress, not to go ahead and make up a rule that congress could not pass.
It isn't just the EPA but every agency of government is making power grabs under the present administration.
What is the Hegelian Dialectic?
In 1847 the London Communist League (Karl Marx and Frederick Engels) used Hegel's theory of the dialectic to back up their economic theory of communism. Now, in the 21st century, Hegelian-Marxist thinking affects our entire social and political structure.
The Hegelian dialectic is the framework for guiding our thoughts and actions into conflicts that lead us to a predetermined solution. If we do not understand how the Hegelian dialectic shapes our perceptions of the world, then we do not know how we are helping to implement the vision. When we remain locked into dialectical thinking, we cannot see out of the box.
Hegel's dialectic is the tool which manipulates us into a frenzied circular pattern of thought and action. Every time we fight for or defend against an ideology we are playing a necessary role in Marx and Engels' grand design to advance humanity into a dictatorship of the proletariat. The synthetic Hegelian solution to all these conflicts can't be introduced unless we all take a side that will advance the agenda. The Marxist's global agenda is moving along at breakneck speed. The only way to completely stop the privacy invasions, expanding domestic police powers, land grabs, insane wars against inanimate objects (and transient verbs), covert actions, and outright assaults on individual liberty, is to step outside the dialectic. This releases us from the limitations of controlled and guided thought.
The big lie here is that this is indeed for the proletariot and this has been the truth from the beginning.
As sated by Quigley, this world order is meant to be administered in a feudalistc manner and that is why the need to eliminate the hated bourgeoisie so that there are only two classes, and the proletariat are deceived into thinking that they are the ruler when they are not at all the rulers but are merely serfs. (or smerfs if you prefer Pilsboro dough boys.)
