A Frenchman, a Brit, and a Russian are admiring a painting of Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden.

The Frenchman says, "They must be French, they're naked and they're eating fruit."

The Englishman says, "Clearly, they're English; observe how politely the man is offering the woman the fruit."

The Russian notes, "They are Russian, of course. They have nothing to wear, little to eat, and they think they are in paradise."

__________________________________________________________________________

Four dogs -- Mexican, American, Polish, Russian -- are discussing their lives.

The Mexican dog says, "The servants used to leave meat out for me, but now I have to bark for it."

The American dog says, "You have servants in Mexico?"

The Polish dog says, "They feed you meat?"

The Russian dog says, "They let you bark?!"

[danielpalos]

....but not everyone learns it's lessons.


Si vis pacem, para bellum .... "If you want peace, prepare for war".

Such a simple understanding of both history and of human nature.



But....the dominant political philosophy understands neither history nor human nature.....it's adherents actually claim that disarming law-abiding citizens will reduce crime, and disarming our nation, to peace.



1. Venezuela...disarmed the citizens to insure a Socialist dictatorship.

"In Gun-Controlled Venezuela, Dictator Promises Gun to Each Socialist Militant
Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro is giving guns to upwards of 400,000 of his supporters in hopes of squashing opponents’ demands for free and fair elections."

Venezuela banned the sale of guns to private citizens in 2012 during the tenure of the late dictator Hugo Chávez.

On June 1, 2012, the BBC reported that private citizens with a license/permit to own firearms would lose their rights, their permits invalid for purchasing or keeping weapons they already owned. “Only the army, police and certain groups like security companies [would] be able to buy arms from the state-owned weapons manufacturer and importer,” the BBC noted. At that time, “Hugo Chavez’s government [said] the ultimate aim [was] to disarm all civilians.”
In Gun-Controlled Venezuela, Dictator Promises Gun to Each Socialist Militant - Breitbart



2. There was a similar call from another socialist head of government:





Government already has an army.
Why would Obama demand even a civilian army?

It could only have been due to his realization that what he planned for America might not be popular with its people.




3. Are there adults who believe a government's demands that they be disarmed?

Absolutely.

They're called Liberals.

But....it goes beyond this ignorance.



4. And here is the lesson that history has taught:

Si vis pacem, para bellum is a Latin adage translated as, "If you wish for peace, prepare for war". The source of this adage remains unknown;[1] however, it is universally believed, rightly or wrongly, to be based on a quotation from Roman military writer Publius Flavius Vegetius Renatus: Igitur qui desiderat pacem, praeparet bellum.[2] The saying is one of many from or based on his work, Epitoma rei militaris, possibly written around the year 390 AD.
Si vis pacem, para bellum - Wikipedia


And true to this day....both for nations, and for individuals.

Just lousy management. They merely need a "corp of agricultural engineers" to help them command economize their way to prosperity.

That is a recipe for disaster," she says. "These people don't think in military ways, so there's this illusion out there that people are basically nice, people are basically kind, if we're just nice and benevolent to everyone they'll be nice too. They literally don't have any sense of evil or criminality." Camille Paglia: A Feminist Defense of Masculine Virtues




In comparison with Paglia's indictment of Liberals, take a look at the military leaders that President Trump has selected.

The war we must prepare for in far more than military confrontations....it is intellectual and moral as well. Being prepared applies not merely in owning the weapons, but in the view of oneself as free men and women who aren't fooled by the promises of a so-called benevolent unlimited government.

And knowledge is power.



7. As most Democrats/Liberals/Progressives are admitted socialists, I would be remiss not to point out a truth we can learn from history... Socialism leads to dictatorship.


Close to home, we find.....

"Venezuela Reminds Us That Socialism Frequently Leads to Dictatorship

On March 29, the Supreme Court of Venezuela dissolved the country's elected legislature, allowing Venezuela's top court to write future laws. The court is filled with allies of Venezuela's socialist president,....

Last week's episode is only the latest reminder of the tendency of socialism to lead to dictatorship, as identified by the Nobel Prize-winning economist Friedrich Hayek in The Road to Serfdom.

In 1944, when he wrote his book, Hayek noted that the crimes of the German National Socialists and Soviet Communists were, in great part, the result of growing state control over the economy. As he explained, growing state interference in the economy leads to massive inefficiencies and long queues outside empty shops. A state of perpetual economic crisis then leads to calls for more planning.

...... economic planning is inimical to freedom. As there can be no agreement on a single plan in a free society, the centralization of economic decision-making has to be accompanied by centralization of political power in the hands of a small elite. When, in the end, the failure of central planning becomes undeniable, totalitarian regimes tend to silence the dissenters—sometimes through mass murder."

Now....about Obama pal and fellow socialist.....

8. "Beginning in 1999, when Maduro's predecessor, the late Hugo Chavez, became President, the government has played an ever-increasing role in the Venezuelan economy. Price and wage controls were put in place, trade was restricted, and private property was expropriated—often without compensation. Partly as a result of those economically illiterate actions (the fall in the price of oil, which Venezuela depends on, did not have such dire consequences in any other oil-rich country), Venezuela's economy tanked and public opposition to the ruling regime increased. Thus, the 2015 parliamentary election saw the opposition to Maduro's leftist policies capture a super-majority in the country's National Assembly.


Unfortunately, socialism, in spite of its manifest failings and Hayek's warnings, refuses to go away. Wannabe socialists are thus destined to learn not from history, but from their own mistakes. In the meantime, ordinary people suffer.

....when Hugo Chavez took over as President, and 2016, average per capita income in Venezuela rose by 2 percent. In the rest of Latin America and the Caribbean, it rose by 41 percent." http://reason.com/archives/2017/04/04/from-socialism-to-dictatorship


Obama, of course, did almost as badly at handling the US economy.




"Chavez to Obama: I'd vote for you, and you for me" Chavez to Obama: I'd vote for you, and you for me
Do you wonder why a representative of Hezbollah endorsed Obama, as did Hugo Chavez.

b. " A dictator dies. He’s persecuted Jews, denied basic civil libertiesand acted as a banker for the Iranian regime. What does the president say? Our president actually says something so meaningless it is impossible to decipher whether he thought Chavez was a friend or foe:

“At this challenging time of President Hugo Chavez’s passing, the United States reaffirms its support for the Venezuelan people and its interest in developing a constructive relationship with the Venezuelan government..... Obama never bothered to mention Chavez’s deplorable record of trying to meddle in and destabilize democratic governments. And then there was his support for terrorist groups. But if you didn’t know better (and perhaps you do), you’d think Obama was indifferent on the domestic and international misdeeds of the tyrant." Obama’s atrocious statement on Chavez’s death

It made capitalism and the free market the 'yellow brick road.'

But in this culture war, the Left claims that there is some perpetual '1%' oppressing the rest of us....and it seems to be quite a weapon, powerful when used on the uninformed.



b. "...economic mobility. About 60 percent of the households that were in the lowest income quintile in 1999 were in a higher quintile ten years later. During the same decade, almost 40 percent of the richest households fell to a lower quintile. This is a nation where you can rise or fall. It is a nation where you can climb the economic ladder based not on who you are born to, or what class you are born into, but based on your talents, your passion, your perseverance, and the content of your character."

Is it a shocker that millennials lean to the Left when they constantly have liberalism shoved down their throats by their schools, their favorite musicians, and Hollywood?

Collectivist governments would find people work, rather than having people be idle.

What we should really be doing is have our government funnel welfare problems into sectors of the economy that need work, like farming, construction, restaurants etc.

Kill 2 birds with 1 stone, by making Illegal immigrants obsolete by funneling our Americans into such jobs.

But, Individualists certainly would disapprove, saying it's collectivism, anti-free market, and big government.

Free Trade, not "renegotiated" trade!
