Deeming your way to prosperity.

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, it would be nice to simply “deem” my daily work done, and get to the relaxation part, like they do in government today. One example is when they “deemed” Obama’s healthcare law passed, at the election of Scott Brown, so they wouldn’t have to actually vote on it. This was eye opening but today the Senate budget leader Conrad made the argument that some new debt limit law “deems” the budget passed for years to come. Then claimed the best way forward is to give today’s Elite, unlimited access to the public purse now, while passing laws that will restrain the Elite in coming years. As if the sophistry of this notion is not glaring enough the certain outcome of this bunch getting anymore power is economic ruination.

Today’s Elite seek to control tomorrow’s Elite through legislation. Moreover, to force tomorrow’s leaders to do what today’s leaders will not do, out of egoistic self aggrandizement. They seek to set the precedent of simply deeming work done and others will do the actual work later. Imagine if the septic technician did this? I can see it now… Fred leans back on a chair. He is wearing brown overalls they say, “Fred’s septic” on them. A customer calls complaining his septic has not been pumped but he has been billed for it. Fred leans forward and says, “Are you stupid or something? I said, I Deemed the tank pumped. Someone else will have to do it in the future. But I deemed it done today so I billed you.” The stubborn customer continues arguing. Fred shakes his head and retorts, “Hey, the government does it all the time, are you saying my work is more important than theirs…” In the meantime septic tanks overflow flooding playgrounds.

The Elite must think we have an absolute lack of reasoning power to believe we will fall for this. They are no more restrained by any of their predecessor’s laws then their heirs to the throne will be theirs. That is obvious. But I guess the argument keeps the ball in the air. They can pretend to defend the indefensible, as they concentrate on things other than their actual job. I do hear that hard working Obama has shaved a few strokes off his game, while deeming his job done, then relaxing in the White House. At least he is getting something accomplished.

While the Obama administration was busy taking over one third of the US economy, by deeming a law passed… they would not let anyone read, the economy was on fire. The Administration focused on a soon to be deemed unconstitutional law, instead of passing regulation and tax relief, to help the economy and the working stiff. The Command and controllers in this administration, are passing reams of new regulation, the printing of which will put ink makers in business for centuries to come.

Command and control economies have failed every time they have been tried, the only partially successful try was Nazi Germany, but that economy soon collapsed in the flames of the war it thrust onto humanity. Command and control is distributive justice by political favor. These types of economies love to deem this, and deem that, regardless of the impact those regulations have on the economy and therefore, human beings.

That is why progressives, socialists and marxists love command and control, they love to simply deem what society must do. They reason that, individuals are too unpredictable but government giveth and government taketh away… predictably. In the absence of God the Keynesian is god. Those that control the purse of government therefore can deem anyone’s money into the general pocket. It’s really too bad that the general pocket is not generally controlled, but specifically controlled. Handed out as political favor. Distribution by political favor is great if you are favored, terrible if you are not, with anonymity leading to neglect and starvation…

Sincerely,

John Pepin
