Shut it Down – Shut it Down

5Mind. The Meme Platform

Of all the frivolous 2,000+ administrative agencies and commissions created in the wake of FDRs unconstitutional NRA (the NRA was declared as unconstitutional by the SCOTUS thrice before the end of 1934) and after 1950, the only departments of the federal government necessary for the secure functioning of the republic are the House of Representatives, the Senate, the federal courts, the Department of War, Department of State, the Treasury Department, the Department of the Interior, and the other Executive branch departments created with the origin of the federal government in 1789. No other agencies or departments were regarded as necessary then, on which the federal government depended for operation.

I just heard on a Tucker Carlson podcast from Senator Ron Johnson the truthful fact that the total yearly fiscal monetary outlay for funding all of the obscure activities of the behemoth federal government since 2010 has been more than 6 trillion dollars, give or take a few billion. That is per year! This monetary figure staggers the imagination when one realizes that the balanced budget for the operation of the federal government in the year 1890 was approximately 500,000 percent less in terms of real money backed by gold than it has been since the year 2010, financed by worthless fiat Federal Reserve note money. And the governing federal plutocrats, the multi-millionaire Democrats and Republicans in Congress say that a federal government shutdown is detrimental to the republic.  Perhaps an extended shut-down is just what the republic needs.

As I see it, every federal administrative entity that is NOT essential to the life, health, and liberty of the citizens of the USA should be shut down and ultimately eviscerated. The essential functions of government, such as the VA hospitals and clinics and the hospitals and clinics for the active-duty marines, soldiers, airmen, and sailors of the War Department, and the maintenance of the national parks should remain open and the appropriated revenue diverted from those unessential agencies to fund them.

What about the nearly two million federal employees and their exorbitant salaries that DOGE was doing such a fine job of eliminating? Fire them, lay them off, force them to get jobs in State, county, or city government or in the private sector at significantly lower wages and salaries. If these feds are as proficient as they claim they are, they should have no problem finding new jobs where they are not exorbitantly paid federal tax revenue.

When it comes to a purely socialist redistribution of other peoples’ tax money pragmatically collected by an apparently fascist and weaponized federal agency, the Infernal, or is it Internal, Revenue Service, I can see in my mind over 1.5 million hungry parasitic federal employee tics sucking the blood, or income, of 264 million hardworking U.S. citizen taxpayer voters; especially when the wise Framers made non-apportioned federal taxation unconstitutional and opposed the federal taxation of earned income for federal revenue. That was why the First Congress passed the Tariff Act of 1789, in order to provide revenue to fund the federal government. And tariff revenue was sufficient to run the limited federal government with a balanced budget until spendthrift warmongering Woodrow Wilson wanted a federal income tax in order decadently prepare the U.S. military to enter the 1914 European war, for which Wilson had conspiratorially planned. 

Since more than two-thirds of the total multi-trillion dollar yearly budget revenue for the federal government is “borrowed” revenue, there is no reason to think that a federal shut-down would negatively affect the pay status of the two-million-plus marines, soldiers, airmen, and sailors of the War Department.  If the care for veterans is prefunded and secure, the pay for active-duty service men and women should also be securely prefunded.  With the bulk of over six trillion dollars of total federal salary revenue being properly diverted from unessential employees to essential employees, all needful payments should be secure.  If the Federal Reserve is ultimately abolished and repealed before 2028, and the gold standard restored, the U.S. dollar will again be worth what it was worth in 1950, as trillions of dollars will diminutively become millions, millions will become thousands, and thousands will become hundreds with a thoroughly restored Congressional valuation system, according to the U.S. Constitution, in Article 1, Section 8, Clause 5.
