Thanks for posting this video F. I watched it two times and the second time hit pause and actually took some notes. He's very insightful. I'm all ears when it comes to turning this behemoth around.
He's right about us living in a culture that does not consent to being ruled by good laws. That Obama's actions are illegal does not impress. We are being opposed by liberals who want to impose their will on others. Duh, he's right. They really don't care about the law. That's the rebellion we are facing.

Our culture has consented to Obama over Romney and the people rejected being ruled by good law in favor of being promised free stuff. This statism bordering on totalitarianism is the real cultural problem that we must address. Once their mind is made up that 'government can provide me with more', then there is no argument to deter this culture from voting FOR "institutionalized selfishness."

I look forward to hearing more from him.

Several KEY concepts.

"We" voted AGAINST rule by "good law" when Zero beat Romney.

And we're voting FOR "institutionalized selfishness"

those make for TWO good starting points for recognizing what we should do next

"This fatal desire has its origin in the very nature of man --"

There it is again, the very reason for the checks and balances established in the three branches of government.

We've culturally shifted to thinking man is very good!

But we don't win this war by stating and re-stating these truths, that's what Zo is saying.

That's what peaked my interest because I fear he is right. I wish he weren't

Gotta disagree with you on this one, TM: "We've culturally shifted to thinking man is very good!"

There is a small segment of our population which believes they themselves are good because they all share similar values. They are primarily located in our leading educational institutions, like Harvard, Yale, etc., and pay lip service to man's inherent goodness; but really think most people other than themselves are selfish, stupid, backward, uncultured, and hopelessly reactionary. The kind of people who "cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations."

They, otoh, form the core of an enlightened humanity destined to lead the rest of us into a better world, their world. Much like shepherds leading a herd of sheep. Their arrogance is leading to our undoing.
