Conservative Nationalism and Devotion To The State

Statism is the history of the U.S. and to conserve the state is the conservative flaw in their devotion to the state.  Conservatives speak of “National Defense” and extol the violent aggressive militarized police state.  Their problem is that the foundation of all the government’s power is what they defend.  To conserve the power of the state is the most damning thing one can do.  There is a convoluted thought process that must be accepted to say that the power of the state is not the problem with the state.

The state claims authority and power over our lives. It does so by the initiation of force with police and military.  The conservative complains if this extends to areas they see that they do not want the state to have power over like health care or select markets.  The conservative will say that the government should stay out of some and become offended if one opposes state controls in the markets they want government control.   They do not actually question the power or “authority.”  The only way a state can claim such “authority” is by force.  It is the force the state uses to assume such powers that the conservative has an undying devotion to.  They are unwilling to see the aggressive militarized police state for what it is, a monopoly of force and most often nothing but criminal activity on a mass scale.

Sure, there are terrible consequences in government taking our liberties and in taking control of industries.  I completely agree.  But we must oppose it completely.  They continue to see some virtue in defending the state.  There is a misguided notion that if we let the state have the power it will not use it.  That is ridiculous, laughable at best.

The conservative nationalism is found in their devotion to their police, wars and migrant control.  The last thing they should be worried about is the joke that is called “social welfare” in the United States.  The downfall will not come from the poor who are given just enough to sustain life.  The downfall of the system is those who use the poor and blow hot air up our asses to claim more power with their armies of Marines, Soldiers and Police.  In eliminating the aggressive force the state uses to maintain their monopolies we will then eliminate any monopoly they hold forcing it out to a freed market. This forces any institution into a place where it must sustain itself without coercive means making any support voluntary.  This eliminates the mandates and any way they use to enforce their “laws.”  This eliminates the abstract crimes the state has invented which often boil down to not purchasing the right product or purchasing the wrong product.

We must end the power of the state.  The devotion to Washington and the power it yields is not honorable.  It is the foundation of all tyranny.  Please conservatives, reject statism.  Please conservatives embrace liberty.  Do not stand with the state and your misguided notions of nationalism. The minute someone questions the power of the state it seems that the conservatives get confused and start throwing around words like “liberal” “left” or “Democrat.”  This must be out of some confusion.  They are confused and do not see an answer outside of big government control.

The police state has become so common they do not question it.  They claim that state control is necessary.  This leads back to the old story of the two women in the USSR waiting in line for days to get bread.  One woman says “this line is terrible” the other says, yes, but in Capitalist countries they don’t even give you bread.  The same antidote applies to all the state you cling to as well.

Just as the conservative criticizes the Obamacare supporter for not seeing how we can have health care provided without government regulation and control, the conservative should begin to look at other areas in the same light.  The “Justice System” “National Defense” and many others are all state tyrannies of the worst sort.  With the state keeping the monopoly on force and the education how do you expect to ever obtain anything close to liberty?  Hospitals are the least of our worries if you look at how much power a state has with what it already has monopolized.
