The debt religion and some exciting Southern activism

Something just happened for the n-hundredth time. A link has been received in which an earnest, brilliant young spokesman makes an incisive declaration on the national situation -- a presentation that my sender guilelessly endorsed as being the real transcendent thing everybody and their friends need to get hip to.

The speaker himself (yes, this one's avideo) says the same thing: "This will only take up three minutes of your time, but you've got to hear it":

Brother, can you spare a trillion?

Everything's right and good and perfect with the video except the same problem you've got with the whole debt-ceiling extravaganza and in fact 99.9% of stuff on the subject for the past century of Federal Reserve garbage: no mention of repudiation in regard to the portion of "money" we owe ourselves in the form of the Fed.

The speaker in the video, Blaise Ingoglia, refers to debt owed to foreign countries as "a lot" of the overall debt. That is accurate and more power to him for his work -- but when it comes to the domestic debt, why go for only the bronze when the gold medal is sitting right in front of you waiting to be grabbed? We'll get into the foreign debt aspect another time -- similar rules no doubt apply there.)

Did you know that this wild, smelly "national debt" animal is at least three totally contradictory things?

Insofar as it's become one of the biggest subjects on earth and a primary focus of ameriKa's existence, I'll admit it's a huge problem -- quite possibly the hugest that's ever existed on paper (in digits).

But I also maintain that it's a religion. In fact, it's part of ameriKa's national faith -- the politics of banality at large, as ideated through the mass media's crooked, twisted, subversive lens. Don't shoot the messenger, but I think the sheeple and even some of our own best minds actually enjoy (at least subconsciously) having such drama going on: greatest/richest country in the world, etc.; our very ability to rack up impossible heights of indebtedness; the hugeness of our own Constitutional vision and its ability to slay the dragon, etc.

Thirdly and most importantly I say the "debt" in question is a delusion. More precisely, I beg to point out afresh that it's an illusion, a case of totally pointless and meaningless emotional neurosis. No, not only the crime of Congress creating and maintaining the Fed all this time and the "good" politicians having noised up the need to get it under control, but THE PURELY IMAGINARY NATURE OF THE DEBT and people's stupidity in speaking, living and voting as if it existed.

That's how it is in Mr. Ingoglia's talk. That's how it's been in Washington and the national media (and around every office water cooler) as the holy bugaboo date of August 2 came and went. But why?

You and I are paleo-conservatives and Constitutional tax patriots. We're supposed to be guiding society back to first principles. I hope I haven't reified the debt myself during the latest brouhaha -- have you? What could possibly be more stupid?

Just as the bottom line with income taxes is the fact that they're voluntary, the real deal here is that the domestic national debt is owed to ourselves, and by a matter of the simplest arithmetic, that cancels it out right there. Never mind math, arithmetic will do fine. Either we are the Fed and it's even-steven (duh!) or the Fed is a cancerous growth and needs to be destroyed. THIS, if anything, is what needs to be shouted from the housetops about Washington's addiction to borrowing -- not that some way needs to be found to pay it!

The Great One, our founder Dr. Robert Clarkson, covered this subject in an article I prepared for the Spotlight newspaper years ago, where it appeared as a two-page spread. REPUDIATE is the word, he said. I like the online dictionary's definitions:

1. to reject as having no authority or binding force: to repudiate a claim.

2. to cast off or disown: to repudiate a son.

3. to reject with disapproval or condemnation: to repudiate a new doctrine.

4. to reject with denial: to repudiate a charge as untrue.

5. to refuse to acknowledge and pay (a debt), as a state, municipality, etc.

Yeah! "TO REJECT AS HAVING NO AUTHORITY OR BINDING FORCE" -- that's all the Federal Reserve deserves from the fedgov. But to denounce and destroy would be even better.

It is absolutely no use doing politics if people are going to accept the devil's terminology and the enemy's matrix of rules and concepts. How dumb can people be? The American people, our people, good people, bad people, they all have in common that they are sleepwalking in matters like this.

REPUDIATE. That's the only word that will do! If the "debt" in question actually exists, then everybody has to pay their "fair share" of income taxes, it was a Civil War, and the most important person on earth is Lady Gaga.

............One of you sent this story which shows in living color our stupidity and knavery from another angle -- our inability to learn from even very recent history:

Congress Can Learn From 1995-96 Debt-Ceiling Debate

............In other news, I was pleasantly surprised to read of this organization's work in Southern Heritage News and Views this morning:

Upcoming Flag March in Aiken, SC

What a shame I didn't know of it earlier and that it conflicts with the first-Saturday PN meeting in Simpsonville (see you there). This group appears to know the meaning of symbols, effect, and memory.
