Big Companies Are Predatory, Big Governments Do Dumb Things

Mankind faces a toxic mix when it comes to protecting our freedom. Big companies are predatory, big governments are stupid. The thing they have in common is they both want more control and power. China is a good example of trying to combine both, this experiment seems to be crumbling before our eyes

The whole concept of people power or that the masses have at any time the ability to just say no is constructed around the optimistic view that people can agree on what is in their self-interest

  • In truth, history shows that the so-called masses are seldom able to come together on anything.
  • True improvement tends to flow from evolution rather than revelation.

The power of the people is at a strong disadvantage when it comes to reforming society

  • The idea that a large government hanging above us to regulate our lives will solve our problems has proven to be a fallacy
  • Throughout history, monopolies of any kind have demonstrated a natural propensity to abuse the people, and governments have exhibited the ability to do dumb things that benefit the few rather than the masses
  • As they have gained power it seems these powerful global entities often lead governments around by the nose and have taken to placing people in a position of servitude
