As yet another Presidential election season has come due, it is well worth noting that "change" has become a constantly recurring campaign slogan in American elections. Those intellectuals who opt to continue onward with such a tired refrain are well aware that very little will change for the betterment of the American public-at-large, in spite of the media-controlled flood of campaign rhetoric on behalf of the respective nominees.
Many Americans may well wonder, "Why is it that we desire change in the first place?"
Whereas the Constitution of the United States was originally fabricated in order to give the American citizens a simple guideline for their representative government, more than two- hundred years of incessant Legislation has produced a miasma of orders, acts, statues and laws that are repugnant to the Constitution - each time these ideas have been merged into public policy in the name of change.
Human beings often have a difficult time accepting realities of life. When people are unhappy with that which is in accordance with natural law, instead of accepting the realities placed before them, they are inclined to call for the government to "change" things. For more than two centuries, American politicians have led the citizens down a path that may have been tread with the best of intentions, but leads to the exact despotism the Founding Fathers of this country had went to great lengths to avoid.
We cannot change that which is fact. To attempt to do so is the most futile of endeavors, having no respect whatsoever for the boundaries of Logic and Reason. If we humans do not like the direction in which the Earth spins, should we make effort to change the rotation, masking our dislike for reality in the name of change? Would we be so foolish to endeavor to alter such basic realities of this world in which we exist? A notion such as this is indicitive of the utter worst in the psychology of mankind.
Now, in these days of the American Republic, intellectuals have bound the political arguments with illusions and fallacies. Certainly, many a modern American has a lust for change, because the condition of the great many has been segregated into artificial social classes through private control of the value of our currency. Those men who labor and toil diligently, only to be rewarded with the lowest standards of living in this Nation, have been placed into serfdom by a parasitic ruling class that performs little of actual benefit to society. The value of hard work has been thus perverted in antithesis to the principles on which this Nation was originally founded.
Self-determination and effort ought to be the qualities rewarded in a just and moral society, not the ability to deceive the masses through programming and manipulative devices.
This incessant drumbeat for change is a psychological attempt to make Americans believe that the Government has an interest in making the everyday lives of American citizens better, and the public has been buying into the deception for such a great period that they've come to wholeheartedly believe the ruse.
Use of Hegel's dialectic allows Democrats and Republicans alike to endlessly cause social and economic harm to the populace and evade just oversight by blame-shifting upon the other. What most Americans fail to realize is that as this subtle intellectual game of cat and mouse continues, the actual change that is desired becomes even more elusive.
It is well known that the State shall always act in the best interest of itself, regardless of the will of the people. The Constitution was designed to limit the power of the State to act in its own best interest at the expense of those represented. However, using instruments set outside the context of the framework of the State such as Religion and Banking, politicians have allowed exterior forces to usurp the intent of the Constitution. Whensoever an institution places misery upon the People, that is recognized by the many to be an entity separated from the State, it offers the State the opportunity to intervene in order that things be "changed."
Thusly, cartels working with the highest and most influential entities, may injure the public trust without responsibility. Government has placed us at the mercy of interests outside the limits of the Constitution. Is there no doubt the masses clamor for change? Is it notable that this theme is allowed to reoccur in our political discourse time and time again without question from the American public?
The change that is required for this Nation to enjoy true Liberty is a return to the very principles America was founded upon. When vigilance is called for, it ought rightly to be vigilance of the people of America in ensuring their political servants follow closely that framework which was provided to them for governance. Our attention must be turned from false paradoxes and paradigms and toward that which is completely and wholly self-evident truth. Those who wish not to adhere to the limitations put upon the government by the Constitution and the people of the United States should be expelled from public office without the benefit of argument. What the United States of America truly requires is a provision unthought of by our Founders. A method must be developed in which the people place corrupted leaders on trial by referendum, outside the context of the controlled court system. Recall is not an option with enough power to rectify the widespread corruption which now exists, instead a process of affirmation of Confidence ought to be adopted on a regular basis for any public servant at any level of Government. Such affirmation should rightly occur as often as quarterly, to hold politician's corruption in check. If corrupt politicians were removed from office in this manner, on a regular basis, it would make it vastly more difficult for the majority of politicians to become corruptible.
The idea of "change" as resolution to pre-fabricated ills upon the people is one that must be ignored by the American public. Those who tout such political positions must be construed as nothing more than snake-oil salespersons who wish to further pervert this Nation's principles for their own selfish ends. Those who no longer wish to see America as a soverign with a strong Constitution behave exactly as spoken above. Persons such as this have no tolerance of the fact that the mass of humanity lives not for their whims, desires and profit - but the true and natural state of mankind rightly belongs nestled deeply in the arms of Liberty.

Well put. I think Mr. Paine and your founding fathers would be pleased with your efforts. The world needs much more of this kind of Common Sense.
I say that as a Canadian, and we face the same situation tho our country was founded differently, obviously.
