There Are Only Two Political Doctrines
By Chas Holloway
Politicians argue endlessly. Republicans want lower taxes and homeland security. Democrats want universal health care and civil rights. Conservatives want to fight terrorism and preserve traditional marriage. Liberals want energy independence and a controlled economy. The right wants this, the left wants that, and all the agendas become gridlocked worse than the freeway traffic in Los Angeles on a holiday weekend.
Who’s right? Who’s wrong? Which policies are progressive? Which ones are retrogressive? The fact is, in all of politics, there are really only two possible points of view.
The first is centralized control, the idea that society should be managed by an strong hand at the top. Leaders are the supreme authority and the people are forced to obey. An elite group controls everything, similar to an aristocracy, that TV commentator and best selling author, Glen Beck, calls “The Political Class.” If you or I break the rules – and get caught – we pay the consequences.
Well known examples of central control include the Church of the Dark Ages, Nazi Germany under Hitler, the Soviet Union under Stalin and China under Mao. In its extreme form, this type of government is called “tyranny.”
The second philosophy is that people in society should be free. Instead of a few “elite” individuals using police to control everyone else, people should be left alone to interact with each other voluntarily. As voluntary relationships branch out and grow, a diverse civilization is created based on contractual relationships. In such a society there’s no need for a central authority, at all. This was the idea behind the Declaration of Independence, and a modern example of such a voluntary society is the internet.
These two philosophies are opposed ways of organizing a society; they are at opposite ends of a spectrum.
Today, in the 21st century, all political philosophies – republican, democrat, the independent party, the Green party, the Reform party – are shifted far towards the centralized control model of society. They don’t argue whether or not a central authority should control the people; that’s a given. They only argue about how. There is one exception: the Libertarian party. Libertarians want to move in the direction of freedom. But, unfortunately, few have successful methods for doing so. This is because they lack the critical science, which is explained in the V-50 course.
The V-50 Discoveries explain how society can be moved away from tyranny. However, it’s important you realize that this is not a political program. It is a scientific set of ideas that are 100% outside the domain of politics.
