Pappy O’Daniel, Warm Up The Biscuits For The GOP And Its Disappearing ‘Constituency’

What happens if you are a major political party, and wake up one day to find out you "ain't got a constituency?"

  • The GOP's "constituency" is presumably working, taxpaying Americans. The Democrats? Americans dependent on government for their livelihoods and sustenance, of course (native and imported).
  • And the Biden administration is determined to grow that constituency.

Job 1: Get people hooked on programs that gradually increase the level of government involvement and then take over altogether, while increasing the cost of private goods and services

  • Obamacare repeal was wiped out in a revenge vote by John McCain
  • The COVID-driven acceleration of expansion of Medicaid and federal exchanges are a stealth takeover of health care

What about Inflation Reduction Act initiatives to further boost "green" energy?

  • They're about eliminating businesses and jobs that don't need government help (read: control) in favor of those that do
  • Shut down the abundantly productive U.S. fossil fuel sector and grow industries that are born nationalized, sucking at the government **** and so unfeasible they can never let go

Student loan forgiveness?

  • Suppose one wanted upper-income elites to be dependent on government? Might one not start off with free college educations, implying, as in Europe, authority over to who gets in and what they study
  • Or, perhaps, employ aid programs driving cost-push inflation to the extent that they become unaffordable for all but the wealthiest families, forcing others into loans
  • Then, enter into limited forgiveness when costs (and repayments) you helped inflate get overwhelming
  • Doesn't that start to look a lot like another "stealth" government takeover
