The colonists originated from all parts of Western Europe, and China and Africa too. They were sentenced to be colonists in a strange land found to be abundant in natural resources. Some were objects of religious persecution. Others were English criminals and debtors expelled from their parent country to establish cities in the new world. Some were adventurers and mercenaries who sought to glean as much wealth as they could from a different, new land. Whatever the case, the best and the brightest bonded together to be the founding fathers of a country, under God destined to be one of the greatest powers in the world. The English kings and queens were a rough bunch not content with the king’s fifth of ransom from the settlers. They wanted more. The English levied taxes with no recourse as to why. The English commanded that soldiers be given quartering at individual homes. The English demanded that male youth of the poor be conscripted to life as a sailor in the English Navy. The best and the brightest of the colonists obtained the Magna Carta of France and amended it to be the constitution of the land. Napoleon in his funny hat and hand in his coat financed the American Revolution. Firearms, food, armament, and logistics provided by the government of France, made the impossible come to pass. The patriots established the United States of America. The American public has a short memory. It is for this reason only that the US entered World War 2. France ousted the royal family and was overrun. The French queen spent the rest of her life as a commoner working in a dress store.
Monarchy and elitism do not produce a viable political system. The strong, valiant, courageous, ethical royalists slowly become evil, corrupt weaklings. Over time criminals, reprobates, and defectives move close to the royalty, intermarry, and weaken the line. What happens is a sorry reminder of past greatness. In a monarchy, only the royal family and their friends get educated and ply good jobs. The rest are commoners and toil in labor for the duration of their lives. The other class hopes and prays every generation that one of their children will be good-looking enough or smart enough to marry into the royal family. The line and the system degrade. Ultimately the people cried out of their misery, as the colonists did, and formed a communist takeover. Then the cycle begins anew.
The dialectic communists are no better. They run around with black Manchurian automatic pistols and assassinate other communists stealing from the treasury. Violence prevails and to obtain an education or a good job a citizen must have a red communist card. For a while, the system functions adequately. Then the ruling communists begin to interbreed, criminals obtain red cards and the ruling communists become a communist monarchy, the people cry out in anguish, and few take up weapons but the unrest is quashed. The want to be king is just plain old human nature. There are intercene civil wars and the ruling electorate establishes themselves as the privileged few and becomes a monarchy. Remember they still keep the name as a communist.
The most stupid, inane, wasteful, slow, and expensive political system is a capitalist democracy. In a democracy, the people choose the economic policies of the nation and Malthusian economics prevail. Democracy is stupid because the wealthy can never agree. A plurality is unknown and the electorate fights daily for a majority. A democracy is wasteful. Elections cost enormous sums of money and the criminals try to rig the ballot box. Democracy is slow because the electorate once they agree takes time to implement public policy. It took the United States two years to enter World War 2 and if the attack at Pearl Harbor, if it never happened, Europe would have been speaking German. Democracy is incredibly expensive. All the electorate, once elected command high salaries and must be housed in proximity to govern the land. Elections are incredibly expensive and the reason our founding fathers chose a four-year term was to get the inept out of office before they ruined the economy or if the president did not want to do it anymore. A one-six-year term is better and cheaper. People are people and they can’t agree, and they steal from one another, and eventually try to be king. In a democracy, once an incumbent finishes a term, the wealthy know whether they are proficient competent, and ethical and whether they choose to re-elect them. This is the worst political system, BUT IT IS THE ONLY ONE THAT IS HALF WAY FAIR. Everyone who plays their card right and has the right connections goes to church, and has a family has the potential to become the president of the United States of America. In God we trust. Long live the republic.
