How Many Layers of Government? (‘Polylegalism’)

    ‘govern . . . transitive verb:

    to exercise continuous sovereign authority over . . . especially to control and direct the making and administration of policy in . . .

    to rule without sovereign power . . . ’

     

    Most of our material, readers, is not new. But powerful political arguments come from the slick exposition of theory and examples of that theory. (‘Street-corner politics’ coming soon.)

     

    Once upon a time, Australia and the U.S. had only local, state, and federal levels of government. The addition of the U.N. – a ‘supra-national’ body – made it four.

    The later addition of tribal law in the U.S., and Indigenous-community provisions in Australia, made it five.

     

    Of course, all that time there were concerns about a ‘deep state.’ Personally, I don’t think the moon landing was filmed in an aircraft hangar in the Nevada desert; but I will not argue against the notion that very powerful political forces have their finger in our governmental pie.

     

    Now check the definition above. Note that the definitions of ‘govern’ include both with and without sovereign power.

    So, are these Behind-The-Scenes Guys a sixth level?

     

    Now Google ‘polylegalism.’

     

    Our point here today is that the more levels (bureaucracies) you have, the less democracy you have.

     

    Ask left-wingers point blank: ‘How many levels of government do you advocate?’

     

    Next, Christianity has been secularized for centuries; but Islam maintains – as the French are finding out to their cost – a significant theocratic drive.

     

    And we mentioned in ‘More on Re-Defining The Left’ that woke capitalism has come out of left field. It’s not behind the scenes; it’s in public alliance with governments. There is a lot to discuss here.* (Look up ‘corporatism.’)

     

    This puts us, globally, in a stark position. The UN and the EU and tribal/Indigenous law and woke capitalism are all left-friendly, are all anti-nation. The left’s open-borders ploy is weakening nation states.

     

    And the left is quite crazy enough to open the door to Sharia law.

     

    In closing, discussions of this subject overall are bested ‘framed’ as polylegalism.


     

    *There’s a minor difficulty here for me, readers. I have long long avoided any interaction with ‘conspiracy theories.’ But the WEF? Who are these creeps?!
