:The positions you promulgate are interesting indeed. I have never been an ardent enthusiast of the libertarians, the major glaring error I see in their platform is the concept of open borders and the legalization of drugs. Otherwise, I can agree with many of their aspirations. These policies will result in more chaos, although I admit both parties tacitly turn a blind eye to both problems at present.
Concerning your three premises of importance, I would rate Know how to Know, as top priority.
The masters of the global plantation are doing everything in their power to "dumb us down," as you indicate. The education system is being emasculated, with top priority given to "how not to offend anyone", as opposed to the basics. Education funding and teacher salaries are dropping while on the other-hand demand for schools continues to soar as a result in part to the crippling burden placed on communities by the ever soaring amount of illegal children dumped into the communities.
Perhaps one of your earlier posts suggests the the only alternative, a decision of higher consciousness to simply shift the earth axis.
In the face these massive, seemingly unsolvable problems, the only option we have is to use every tool at our disposal in the quest for higher consciousness.
