Number 814, March 22, 2015
I don't know exactly what it is, but there
is something in democracy that selects for
the very worst in humanity: the craziest,
the most stupid, and the most evil.

EDITORIAL MATTERS Once again into the spray! Or however that old saying goes. Our Mr. Smith asks that question selected as this issues Motto, "I don't know exactly what it is, but there is something in democracy that selects for the very worst in humanity: the craziest, the most stupid, and the most evil." The answer, the what-it-is, the something is just that us normal people do not want to run things. We would rather do something important, something fun, something rewarding, something that enriches our lives. This is why the "left" ("progressive," "activist," "busy-body") people end up running things. They don't have lives, apart from their "left-ness" or whatever we want to call it. They end up on all the committees, too. Normal people have no interest in the interpersonal fighting and politicking that committee members engage in. (The amount of time committee members spend working against each other is vastly greater than the time spent on whatever the committee is supposed to be doing.) Normal people gain no pleasure from dominance games. Normal people have important things to do, whereas being President or Governor is simply not important to sane, normal people. So normal people end up not running things, while the freaks end up in charge. How about that. "Well, wait," you say. "If I was President (Senator, Governor), I would change things!" Don't make me laugh. The President (Senator, Governor) can not change anything. Can change nothing. Noth-ing! Except to make things worse, of course. They can't fix anything, but they can make things worse. You know that. Worse! Anyway, welcome to issue number 814. Began reading now.
