The title of this piece is a question I always hear (and ask). What the fuck is happening to this country?
From listeners, neighbors, friends, family, and even those whom I despise on the opposite end of the political spectrum, it’s obvious to anyone paying attention that this country is a complete mess. The natural follow-up question is, how did we get here?
It’s not hard to answer.
It simply took 248 years for our government to bloat itself to what we are witnessing today. That’s all. Nothing more, nothing less.
Our founders understood this, and Benjamin Franklin wondered aloud when Elizabeth Willing Powell asked, “Well, Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?” Franklin famously responded, “A republic, if you can keep it.” They knew what we are experiencing today was inevitable. That government naturally evolves to seek unbridled growth and total power over the people. What no one knew was how long it would take to lose it, and here we are today, in our lifetimes, living through what may very well be the end of our constitutional form of Republic unless we decide to “keep it” and “keeping it” my friends, is not a foregone conclusion.
To understand this requires a glance back to the work of Lord Alexander Tytler, a Scottish historian who lived between 1747 and 1813. Tytler wrote what has been referred to over the centuries as the “Tytler Cycle,” outlining the eight stages of a democracy or a democratic republic such as ours. His words were prophetic indeed. He believed that every society began in bondage and progressed through the stages below:
- From bondage to spiritual faith;
- From spiritual faith to great courage;
- From courage to liberty;
- From liberty to abundance;
- From abundance to complacency;
- From complacency to apathy;
- From apathy to dependence;
- From dependence back into bondage.

Do you see a way out of this tyranny? I see only one way out and it involves a lot of bloody violence if we are to survive, what is holding us back.
STILL think you’re voting your way out of this?
Cycles. Cycles within cycles. Everything is cyclic. So, too, empires.

The majority have no clue what’s going on -- they don’t want to know. And when the SHTF, they’ll all be stumbling around, “what happened?” That’s when fear leads to pandemonium!
