The Historic Clash of Two Opposing [American] Geopolitical Paradigms — Matthew Ehret
History lesson. American imperialism versus American isolationism, and the British economic system versus the American economic system.
Such an anti-Darwinian system which Adams called “a community of principle” asserted that each nation had the right to sovereign banking controls over private finance, productive credit emissions tied to internal improvements with a focus on continental (rail/road) development, industrial progress and full spectrum economies. Adherants of this program included Russia’s Sergei Witte and Alexander II, Germany’s Otto von Bismarck, France’s Sadi Carnot, and leading figures within Japan’s Meiji Restoration. [bold added]
In other words, stealing from and oppressing one's own citizens is OK as long as the banking system is under national control.
However, this is contrary to the Bible (e.g. Deuteronomy 23:19-20) and is thus contrary to God too.
If you want a slim chance at isolationism, vote for Trump.
ReplyDeleteFor a guarantee of continued foreign interventions, vote Biden.
