Transition to Meritocracy 06 03 2012

When I was a boy I thought that a democracy was a meritocracy.  But as I get older I see it is really a Republic.  In a Republic wealth rules regardless of talent.

In a meritocracy those with skills and integrity rule.

Our Democracy is indeed failing because of the negative influence of the false Republic.

The initial Republic meant a brotherhood of founding fathers with strong minds and idealisms they could turn into reality.  This is indeed the meaning of a Meritocracy.  Merit is the key word.

It will never happen in the history of the world again.

So what has been the cause of the failing?  Those who have the skills in our economy are defeated.  Who you ask?  A cadre of the satanic false religious who use Scott Walker as their poster boy?

The Parable of the Talents is a real horror to some of us.  Why?  You will be there at that job until that no good s4i7 kid son learns how to do everything about the business form you rather than his father.  Then you will be fired.  Congratulations! 

“They have just made a son and husband.  That money could buy.  From the fragments of your eye.”

Normal and well adjusted people do not bother others.  Nor were they ever lead to believe that they should.  They were raised to be self reliant, independent and responsible thinkers who act out of love and care for others.  When such individuals are confronted with a different class, ones that thrive on bothering people, the good are powerless and defeated. 

Hence our economy is overflowing with those who can talk the talk but cannot think the new thought.  This is the demise of a strong Republic. That is why we are faced with a stagnation rather than growth and vitality. 

But there is indeed hope for salvation.  The Dead Sea Scrolls (an ancient Hebrew writing) has a passage in it that deals with just this kind of situation; it goes something like this paraphrase from memory “Those who believe in the evil way will suffer from confusion long before the end of their days.”

The founding fathers fear was that if it was to be a Meritocracy that this same cadre would define the standard of what warrants merit to a lower level.  They believed the Constitution would protect the democracy and Republic that they created.  It’s failed to.
