what's best

  I feel empowered! Yesterday I fought the power and did not observe the eclipse at all. Despite the urging, the hype, the "once in a lifetime" event I avoided the danger! You can mark me safe from the eclipse. It was a touch and go situation, but I made it. I'm a survivor.

 So now I'm waiting for the next big thing to be concerned or upset about. I mean I heard that Trumps' request for a delay in his trial has been rejected and his motion to move the trial also. That doesn't really upset me or cause any great concern. The agenda is clear enough for anyone to see, get Trump at any cost, on any charge or accusation. Back in 1934 John Dillinger was named as public enemy number one and Trump is apparently number two in some circles. I don't begrudge others for endorsing the candidate of their choice, that's the backbone of our republic but your support should be more than, I hate the other person. That I do find a bit concerning. When your entire campaign really just revolves around, we hate Trump. 

 I'm wondering what the media will focus their attention on now. It won't be Biden refusing to resupply the oil reserves or the border crisis that much is certain. With summer coming on it could be that dreaded climate change/global warming thing. See, it's getting warmer outside I told you so! Could be the student loan debt. Bidens hope for buying that demographic is fading fast, but we can still talk about it. Maybe it won't all be forgiven but we could offer other options, especially to those that have suffered from systemic issues. After all, it isn't their fault, it's the system! If everyone just paid into the system equally, those that are in the minority could benefit from the majority. And that is the only way equality can be achieved! When the 2% is fully supported by the 98%, the 2% become equal. 

 Majority rule only applies when the minority wins. If the majority wins that's systemic. You do understand that logic, right? It's what is being taught at our colleges and universities. Some call that CRT. The premise being that government, our republic, is rife with racism. The whole system benefits white people. Well, currently white people are in the majority. White people have always been in the majority in this country. According to some predictions that will change in 2045 and white people will no longer be in the majority. Then the white folks can complain about racism. And that is the complaint. CRT teaches that all white people are simply racists! White people established a republic, enslaved black people and created a system to benefit only themselves. Globally white people comprise 72% of the world population. Asians are at 14% and blacks come in third at 6% of the world population. 

 Now most people agree that the majority should rule. It's the only reasonable way to run an organization of any kind. You can't just have everyone doing their own thing. Yes, everyone should be represented, everyone gets their say, but in the end the majority has to rule. In a simple democracy the 51 overrule the 49. That's why we created a republic, to sort of even the odds you might say. If we went with a simple democracy globally what are the chances the blacks or Asian people will ever achieve a majority?

 So far it isn't looking good. Does that make all the white people in the world racists? That's the jest of critical race theory. Well at least in our republic it is, and the thinking is we should just go with a simple democracy because well, that's fair. Yes, as a white person I would like that very much because I'm going to win every single time. Well, that's if all white people share the same beliefs, the same ideology and all agree on the issue being voted on. And all the white folks think alike, right? Yeah, those folks in NYC have the same values, the same concerns and the same philosophy as those in Lincoln, Nebraska. And that is why our republic incorporated an electoral college. 

 So, my concern is the loss of the republic. I won't be hearing that on the news though. No all I'm going to hear is a bunch of rhetoric about our "democracy." Keep saying that word enough and you can change the meaning of it. That's something the media has become quite adept at doing. When you start calling abortion on demand healthcare, I'd say you have changed the meaning. When democracy means, the minority gets their way, I'd say you have changed the meaning. I'd go as far as saying you have erased the word republic from the political dialogue. The majority has to rule. That doesn't make the majority racists. 

 The majority will generally vote for whatever they feel is of benefit to them. That is the saddest testament of humanity. Regardless of all our grandiose ideals and promises, despite any profession and confessions of religious beliefs and doing the right thing, we will vote for what benefits us. When something no longer benefits us, we reject that, we abandon that and declare it obsolete. It's old fashioned, out of date and needs to be changed. That is how that goes and how it will always go. The race or creed of the majority will not affect that. Race and creed are not systemic in our republic. They never have been. It has always been, what's best for business. It always will be.
