You've alluded to this before - and you aren't the only one.

 

It's what I call the Wizard of Oz view of politics; i.e., that there is someone, somewhere, behind a wall pulling the strings. Of course, we're never shown any sensible information as to who these "elites" are. I think I've counted 196 groups or individuals over the years that are the "real" power. 

 

I understand that when you are uncertain and afraid of the future you want some worldview that makes it all ok, or at least understandable. Isn't that what Communism and Nazism did? Make things understandable to "the people"? And no, I'm not calling you a Communist or Nazi. They are just the most stark examples of an ideology that existed to "explain" to the masses that there were great mysterious forces at work. People pulling the strings of the puppet.

 

I think you're pushing an anti-democratic worldview that has shown over and over again to be a failure. It invites demagogues and dictators and at heart is truly un-American. 

 

There's nothing mysterious about it, it's called Agenda 21. It's also been refereed to as a New World Order by both major political parties in the United States and just about every other established government in the world.

 

You're right I am anti-democratic, I believe in the representative government that was originally founded, we are a Constitutional Republic not a Democracy.

 

Benjamin Franklin — 'Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.'
