The Daily Bell discusses the increasing gap between what citizens believe and what its government wants them to believe:
To say that the US has become a dysfunctional society is an understatement. The main narratives of the nation’s social compact are illegitimate and the result is a growing divide between the citizenry and its leaders.
This can be seen in the feedback queues of articles that report on the war on terror and the economy. The vitriol and anger of Americans are expressed endlessly in responses to articles posted at major, national publications and media sites such as ABV, AOL and even the Wall Street Journal.
Seldom has the gap between leaders and the led been so large in modern, democratic history. This would be dangerous at any time, but especially so during the era of the Internet.
One can deprive people of an authentic national conversation when they have no outlet to discuss it, no venue to debunk it. But that is not the case within the context of the unrolling Internet Reformation.
The dominant social themes of Anglospherepower elite continue to collapse despite their endless repetition by the elite-owned mainstream press. Many Americans are not behind the war on terror either domestically or abroad. And even if Americans believe that government can provide jobs, they are not confident that it will do so.
There are of course plenty of other dominant social themes spread by the elite in their endless quest to frighten people into considering globalist solutions to phony crises. But many of these are suffering as well.
Global warming has been subject to a strong pushback; the Afghan war has led to stalemate at best; even the questionable narrative of 9/11 continues to receive criticism.
At the beginning of this article, I wrote there was good news regarding the phony concept of government initiated employment and economic stimulation. It comes in the form of disbelief. US citizens seem increasingly put off by the empire that has been created around them. Perhaps it will lead to a reversal in the way society perceives “rights” and initiate a return to an America as perceived by its Founding Fathers and architected in the US Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Perhaps people will realize TANSTAAFL.
