Extreme Concepts Worth Considering for the Benefit of the Individual

 Chuck Marshall's Humble Opinion on Freeing the Mind of Humanity 

By Charles Eldridge Marshall 





     Dear readers-  I'm often frustrated by the lack of action or effectiveness of the government regarding defense of individual rights and effective governing.  There are all kinds of concepts that have been tried to "help" situations for groups but they never work because they're watered down by herd mentality and the never- ending political circus between the "right" and the "left".  

Truth be told,  if we want results then we need bold action to enable the individual to succeed, not any particular group.  If life is good for all individuals, then it's good for us all, right ?  

For example;

Controlled Gun Control  -  Instead of "controlling" guns, they should be legislated only as far as who gets them- restricting persons with a tendency towards violence, insanity, lack of intelligence to learn to handle them.  To truly control guns they should be provided to ALL people that want one and all people that want one should be educated in their handling.  The goal is that only intelligent, capable people are carrying guns and those with a tendency to mishandle them would not carry them.  The results would be far fewer lunatic shooting binges since he (probably a he) would think twice to take out grocery store or a school.  In addition,  I would think violent crime would take a "nose-dive" because  the potential victim would be more likely capable of defending themselves, regardless of their gender.  How could a potential rapist or thief know if his victim  knows how to handle a gun ?  If it's likely she can, he's not going to try.  

No more bricks and mortar Schools   The petri dishes for our children known as "Public schools" are a complete failure and have lead to mostly incapable population of adults that don't know basic history or practical understanding of finance or many adult necessities of modern life.  They  lead frustrating lives working at jobs they hate and/or are not appropriate for them.  They vote for incompetent and incapable politicians because they never learned what to look for in leadership other than the vitriol you see in today's MSM. Get rid of the cattle boxes and enable children to learn from home or in a virtual school environment.  This would be massively less expensive and you could have the best teachers instructing a much higher number of students all at once.  Kids that need the extra attention could get it in "question and answer sessions" with "virtual questions" and the brats that disrupt the setting of the virtual room would be simply muted by the teacher/monitor.  No more expensive buses and greenhouse emissions from them which I'm sure is massive on a daily basis.  No more school clothes to reveal a social background at early ages.  No more sexual signals lurking beneath tight fitting clothes amidst all the hormones of the creatures known as "teenagers".  Just learning.  

Government Assistance for all.... with one "catch" -  I think the government should be there to help people who are down on their luck and/or need an avenue to gain independence through self sufficiency.  The problem is certain political groups have gotten very good at promising all kinds of things to specific groups of people and their enablers (enablers- well meaning liberal minded citizens that want to help the downtrodden but lack the energy or interest to actually DO anything about it other than vote.)  I think this assistance should be there for food, shelter, and medical care through government subsidies and tax breaks.  Even welfare has its purpose in certain extreme circumstances.  Tuition or tuition debt relief ?  No problem !  But there is  a catch to this government assistance.  If you take government assistance you CANNOT vote while you're taking that government assistance.  It's obvious those who want or need government assistance would be very motivated to continue voting for the politician that promises more "goodies" to them.  Remove that possibility altogether.  This would have the additional advantage of motivating them to get back to being contributors to society and participants in the democratic process.  The individual need no longer feel the frustration of supporting people who don't want to work but then get a say in leadership that will enable this laziness.  

Of course there are details to be worked out., but this seems a good foundation for establishing an avenue to happiness for all while protecting the rights of the individual.  

In My Humble Opinion.

The Mainstream Media- Rulers of the Modern World

 Chuck Marshall's Humble Opinion on Society's Mendacity 

By Charles Eldridge Marshall 

         Seeking the truth in all matters is the same as seeking God.  I  like to consider Truths of any matter because in the Truth is God and in God is purpose and reason for this life.  Whatever way you see God,  it must be admitted that there is nothing in self at the end of life.  That is why it's so empty to live life for the self.  At the end of it all, there's nothing there.   People ask "Is God real?"  A more appropriate question would be "Is mankind real?".   So much of what we do is empty and self serving.   Like a bad comic book character.   It would make more sense,  if at the end of it all,  we're the fake beings living in the reality of a living God.  He's the only true reality and we're simply figments of His imagination.  When people die they are wadded up like a bad sketch and He discards them for lack of substance.  Perhaps, though, some He saves. 

     As my heading states;  Wise Government delivers Truth, Justice and Liberty.  I feel that the three are intertwined and you can't have one without the other.  If the truth is spoken and allowed to be spoken then Justice and Liberty will naturally follow.  

     My first big "Truth Be Told" is that our enormous government is largely influenced by the Mainstream Media  (which, for the purpose of this blog includes the large internet  players;  Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Google) who are not too familiar with Truth.  Our enormous government is to the point of existing for it's own purpose and it stays there through media support.  The lack of truth in government and leadership has flowed from the Mainstream Media.  Government is to the point of existing for itself and profit only.  It's no longer for the people, it's for the ruling class.   Flowing from the media are those who benefit from their approval;   academia, corporations,  entertainment, the three branches of government (enrobed by a massively bloated bureaucracy).  These groups decide our laws and in large part they decide our elections.  They are mostly entrenched in their own survival much like the scribes and pharisees from the days of old.  They preen around pronouncing to us how great they are while they rob us of the Truth through their lies and self aggrandizement.  They insist we admire them and all their good works while the good works benefit mostly themselves.  We're treated as little children that are incapable of ruling ourselves.   Such suspicions of the rule of mankind are similar to the royals of centuries ago.  Those days are not over, they just have a different face.  

     Witness the media as it dictates to us what to think and how to vote.  Open discussion and debate is long gone in all arenas and each news entity has its own agenda.  Every news article is clothed in opinions but naked of facts.  The Truth is last on their list.  You cannot vote for the person best qualified for the job because you have no idea what is the Truth.  This lack of clarity keeps them in power.  Like the Kings and Queens of old Europe, they see themselves as innately superior to the common man.   But why do so few people stand up to ask "From what authority did that come?".   How could God choose a particular person or group to rule over mankind  when we're all equal in His eyes ?  The only way for the Truth to rule is for the people themselves to vote freely as fully informed citizens.  In addition, there cannot be any hidden agendas lurking in the corners of our media as is common place today.  In today's world,  all of that is impossible.  

       The true power comes from the ones that control information.  The government cannot control all information, as much as it would like to, but it can influence and buy the favor of the media to manipulate elections in the favor of those who want more of their own control over the government.  Today, all powerful groups and people must win the favor of the media to maintain or gain power.  It all flows from the media and those that own and operate it.  The last thing they want to see is the average citizen having any significant influence on "how things are run" because they, the media and all their cronies in ruling class are the ones to call the shots.  We are incapable, as far as they are concerned.  So they manipulate and are the puppeteers of the government,  entertainment, business, and as a consequence  - the elections.  That is why the mainstream media are the rulers of today's world.
