Ulysses is sad. Even Roissy – er, Citizen Renegade – seems a bit sad. Professor Boudreaux wants to vomit. The Paulistas are getting fired up. Alternative Right thinks we’re going to be exterminated. Vox thinks we’re the third world. Heck, even Jim Cramer is turning bearish. Health care stocks are set to open higher as they prepare to reap the rewards that the Democrats have sewn – no doubt campaign contributions will follow (they have to come up with something to replace the contributions they’ve lost now that Fannie and Freddie are no more). Mr Lyles says:
Progressivism, with its short-term rewards and long-term consequences, is an ideology that is difficult to beat back at the ballot box. America is home to the Western world’s only effective anti-progressive movement. And it is currently in retreat.
I say it’s time to celebrate. The chances of a true election just skyrocketed. Ferdinand may be on the same page – though he still seems sad about it. The ugly mask on the American system of government is slipping. No one can seriously assert that we live in a democracy (even the mainstream, ever-moderate pundits). Even a fool then understands that the next question is: what form of government do we live under? The answer can’t remain obscure much longer and no one but the bureaucrats like the answer.
