In this world of absurd comfort & abundance, they pour enormous resources into finding or inventing problems (but that is same thing), particularly preferring those which are intractable & will last forever, because these justify indefinite expansions to the permanent bureaucracy

Right now their highest aspirations involve absurdities like changing the weather or ending disease, things that can obviously never happen, but that can become more or less permanent fixations for generations of mediocre career bureaucrats and ‚scientists‘

As much as I want Corona to end - & believe me, I want this - I am deeply terrified about what this cadre of clown-car lunatics will alight upon as the next cause, now that they know this degree of interference & disruption is open to them.

Yes. This is the subject of my new book, "Dragonslayers: Six Presidents and their War with the Swamp." Of the six, only Lincoln and TR had good success; Cleveland some. By JFK's time, the bureaucracy/CIA/agencies were so much in charge a president's will was mostly meaningless.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Great take as always. The role supranational NGOs play adds another dimension to this. While the democratic governments function as the source of legitimacy, most of the "solving" of the intractable problems is outsourced to the globalist technocrats.

The technocrats are usually more effective and pernicious than innocently parasitic bureaucracies staffed by unproductive middle aged women.
