To be governed

To be GOVERNED is to be watched, inspected, spied upon, directed, law-driven, numbered, regulated, enrolled, indoctrinated, preached at, controlled, checked, estimated, valued, censured, commanded, by creatures who have neither the right nor the wisdom nor the virtue to do so. To be GOVERNED is to be at every operation, at every transaction noted, registered, counted, taxed, stamped, measured, numbered, assessed, licensed, authorised, admonished, prevented, forbidden, reformed, corrected, punished. It is, under pretext of public utility, and in the name of the general interest, to be placed under contribution, drilled, fleeced, exploited, monopolised, extorted from, squeezed, hoaxed, robbed; then at the slightest resistance, the first word of complaint, to be repressed, fined, vilified, harassed, hunted down, abused, clubbed, disarmed, bound, choked, imprisoned, judged, condemned, shot, deported, sacrificed, sold, betrayed, and to crown all, mocked, ridiculed, derided, outraged, dishonoured. That is government; that is its justice; that is its morality.

This is where we are now, democracy has given us all of the above and we think we are free! We are not, we are governed by people like David Cameron, Ed Miliband, Harriet Harman and that strange creature Theresa May. What is scary, is that most people are fine with this, they don’t demand that immigration be stopped or reversed, they don’t mind that the already expansive government we have, expands again and again at their expense. Indeed it is demanded!

What better way to institute a dictatorship? A dictatorship in all but name!
