Entry: From the Rubble Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/from_the_rubble#23082 Post contents: We can sit around and discuss the details of economic theory of this new movement all day but in the end it will have no impact unless we figure out how to address the real cause of our decline: Power. We have none and it isn't going to come from a small cadre of sign waving libertarians. The left took over this country with money, the media and to a lesser extent, control of the universities. You cannot compete with that using grass roots enthusiasm, the so called internet revolution, or by just speaking the plain truth. The power our enemies have is almost beyond comprehension, which is why we so often miss the point. We do however win all the online polls. Hurrah! The rabble can be made to believe and support anything. The establishment know this. It is done with psychology through technology. It is why the Republican rabble of the 70s and 80s, who lipped all the right stuff about free markets, less government, blah blah blah, now support bigger government, socialism, etc etc. and these dolts don't even realize the change. Ideas are no match for power. Nice post though, Mr. Zmirak, and I agree with you. Sent at: 2008 07 08
