It was Thomas Jefferson who said:
"The issue today is the same as it has been throughout all history,
whether man shall be allowed to govern himself or be ruled by a small elite."

It appears to many that our once great REPUBLIC has been morphed into an oligarchy that incrementally has taken our government in an opposite direction; that is from being the protector of our FREEDOMS, to restoration of the feudal chains from which our forefathers escaped. This direction is "socialist", the predecessor of communist. It actually represents public interests but this direction has put big business monopolies, (such as the unconstitutional "EASY PASS" monopoly, which violates constitutional Article 83, Part II,) into rewriting laws to privatize core public institutions for private Corporate profit. Accordingly,these monopolies are in collusion with corporate government at the expense of the taxpayers. Such behavior is the betrayal of honor in regard to core Constitutional virtues "of, by and for the people". It is a scoffing at the mandates of the supreme law of the land, violations of Oaths of Office and a "Wink and a Nod" as the taxpayers pockets are being picked. It is probably best described as anti-fascist; however is this direction really "socialist"? History will attest that "fascism" was given meaning by Benito Mussolini, who is second only to Hitler in giving meaning to the word "fascism". Benito is quoted as saying;

"Fascism should more appropriately be called corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power.(see "Fascism in America”)

Well, there you have it as I see it. Comments are welcomed.
