True, and we can't blame it on public or private schooling. Emotive reactionary actions evolves from a lack of discipline.
 
Using terms such as the right, the left, liberal, conservative is an attempt to stereotype people by putting them in nice little boxes that we can understand, no grey areas, no ambiguity, and no doubts. Labels are used by people who are trying to divide people. However, a person can be a strong supporter of 2nd amendment rights, pro-choice, be completely neutral on gay marriage, support prayer in schools, and believe single payer health insurance is the best option.

Yes, indeed.

They both want a dictatorship.

Every politically controlled educational system will inculcate the doctrine of state supremacy sooner or later. . . . Once that doctrine has been accepted, it becomes an almost superhuman task to break the stranglehold of the political power over the life of the citizen. It has had his body, property and mind in its clutches from infancy. An octopus would sooner release its prey. A tax-supported, compulsory educational system is the complete model of the totalitarian state."

–Isabel Paterson, The God of the Machine (1943)

Something strange has happened since the end of the Cold War at the very least. Many former right-winger rugged individualists have shifted leftwards in terms of cultural and moral nihilism since they're sick and tired of fellow right-wingers who believe in universal idealistic principles justifying the dignity behind humanity.

Likewise, many former left-wingers have shifted rightwards in opposing hedonist consumerism because they believe in a sustainable society which people can relate with.

The dichotomy is obsolete, but it just hasn't been publicly recognized yet. We are on the cusp of a new political system.
 
Basically, it is still the Federalists of New England versus the Jeffersonians in the Heartland.

The Federalists are winning because they understand the tendency toward Decline of Societies.

They have mastered the art of borrowing money to give out free stuff in exchange for votes; and so have gained control of such groups as are happy on the Federal Plantation.

But, they couldn't borrow enough to fully fund ObamaCare, and they wound up sending the Middle Class a bill---due and payable now.

So, the Jeffersonians may do pretty well in the next election.

The Left wants the government to run their lives cradle to grave, while the right wants to have individual freedom to make our own choices.

Yeah, if you squint real hard they're identical.

Incorrect.

It is the same repressive tyrannical political system which was in effect for 1700 years prior to the adoption of the Constitution (1787)

They are two sides of the same coin. They simply take turns at the trough (Washington, DC) then retire to a *cough* "job" provided for by their backers (the banksters; who just so happen to be owners of the Fed, on wall st) see- Geithner & a plethora of others before him.

No public financing of campaigns = no difference in the parties

The Political Compass

You can test yourself to see where you stand. :idea:

The chart isn't obsolete it is just that the Globalists are controlling the so called conservative-Republicans and the so called liberal-Democrats. Both parties are authoritarian in nature it is just they fight over what kind of authoritarianism and how best to use it for Globalist purposes.

26 Tenets of the New World Order:

1) Men are inclined to evil rather than good.

2) Preach Liberalism.

3) Use ideals of freedom to bring about class wars.

4) Any and all means necessary should be used to reach their goals as they are justified.

5) Believe their rights lie in force.

6) The power of their resources must remain invisible until the very moment that they have gained the strength so that no group or force can undermine it.

7) Advocates a mob psychology to obtain control of the masses

8 ) Promotes the use of alcohol, drugs, moral corruption, and all forms of vice to systematically corrupt the youth of the nation.

9) Seize citizens’ private property by any means necessary.

10) The use of slogans such as equity, liberty, and fraternity are used on the masses as psychological warfare.

11) War should be directed so that the nations on both sides are placed further in debt and peace conferences are designed so that neither combatant retain territory rights.

12) Members must use their wealth to have candidates chosen to public office who would be obedient to their demands, and would be used as pawns in the game by the men behind the scenes. The advisors will have been bred, reared, and trained from childhood to rule the affairs of the world.

13) Control the press, and hence most of the information the public receives.

14) Agents and provocateurs will come forward after creating traumatic situations, and appear to be the saviors of the masses, when they are actually interested in just the opposite, the reduction of the population.

15) Create industrial depression and financial panic, unemployment, hunger, shortage of food, use these events to control the masses and mobs, and use them to wipe out those who stand in the way.

16) Infiltrate Freemasonry which is to be used to conceal and further objectives.

17) Expound the value of systematic deception, use high sounding slogans and phrases, advocate lavish sounding promises to the masses even though they can’t be kept.

18) The art of street fighting is necessary to bring the population into subjection.

19) Use agents as provocateurs and advisers behind the scenes, and after wars use secret diplomacy talks to gain control.

20) Establish huge monopolies towards world government control.

21) Use high taxes and unfair competition to bring about economic ruin by controlling raw materials, organized agitation among the workers, and subsidizing competitors.

22) Build up armaments with police and soldiers who can protect and further the New World Order's interests.

23) Members and leaders of the one world government will be appointed by the director of the New World Order.

24) Infiltrate into all classes and levels of society and government for the purpose of teaching the youth in the schools theories and principles known to be false.

25) Create and use national and international laws to destroy civilization.

26) Use estrogens & femicals to drive males gay and the female population insane thereby insuring the destruction of the family, hence more governmental dependency.

See both parties engage in the same agenda and go to the same Bilderberg meetings.

That's why I back the Constitution Party.

Constitution Party > Home

We don't take orders from Bilderberg or any other Globalist.

I agree in the sense that you describe elected officials, and they are not restricted to Wash. D.C.; most in fact serve on City/County Councils and State Legislatures. The idea that they represent anyone but themselves and those who provide them the resources to run and stay elected, describes the few not the many of those we elect.
