President Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society of Government Assistance and Entitlements

Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society of Government Assistance and EntitlementsSocieties evolve, and with them so do the tactics of would-be dictators. Government has figured out they no longer have to subject people and destroy liberty through direct edict or law. Tyrannical rule of this fashion is so medieval. It is more fun to covertly implement your objectives, to put the frog in the pot and gently boil him. This carefully orchestrated destruction of your liberties accomplishes the same end as brute force, but does so a bit at a time. The end result, if all goes according to plan, is an unarmed, poor populace, beholden to the government and pacified by need.

In turn, what do you do if you have a segment of the population that is causing trouble for you? You give them enough rope to hang themselves. If you think Lyndon Johnson’s “Great Society” was about helping people, I’ve got a billion rounds of ammunition I can sell you at a low price. In fact, here are two quotes by the former President:

    “These Negroes, they’re getting pretty uppity these days and that’s a problem for us since they’ve got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we’ve got to do something about this, we’ve got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference. For if we don’t move at all, then their allies will line up against us and there’ll be no way of stopping them, we’ll lose the filibuster and there’ll be no way of putting a brake on all sorts of wild legislation. It’ll be Reconstruction all over again.”

My personal favorite quote from this tenderhearted progressive liberal:

    “I’ll have those niggers voting Democratic for the next 200 years.”

We’ve seen the rotten maggot infested “fruits” of the “Great Society”; trillions of dollars wasted, the enslavement of a portion of our population for generations, and the destruction of families and culture in a carefully orchestrated illusion. The plan was never benevolent, it was always to further enslave people. To boot, it was designed to trick people into thinking someone cared. Every time an election rolls around, what do you hear? “So and so is going to take away your benefits, so vote for me. I will continue to give you your pittance”. The problem is, it is spreading like a stage four cancer. Taking a look at one government program, SNAP, we see an increase of almost 70% in the past six years, outpacing job creation by 10 times! A look even further back, to the turn of the century, “participation in benefits” has risen a staggering 177%. It is estimated that over 49% of the population is now receiving “entitlements”. What are the folks who receive these benefits going to do when they are threatened? They will conform.

According to the beliefs of our founders and penned in our founding documents, government’s sole responsibility is to ensure liberty and protect our enumerated rights. Nothing about the above is protecting liberty, in fact, it only serves to destroy it. This facade may appear benevolent on the surface, but carefully re-read the words of Lyndon Johnson again. Government has become more sophisticated and covert in the last 50 years.

  1. Black children born without a father in the home rate before LBJ’s “Great Society” welfare system in 1964 is 7 percent.

    Black children born without a father in the home rate post LBJ’s “Great Society” in 2014 is 73 percent.

    Hey liberals, how’s your “Great Society” working out for the black family?

    • Blacks (approximately 13% of the U.S. population) commit nearly half of all murders in this country, 31.8% of arrests for forcible rape, 33.5% of arrests for aggravated assault, and 55% of arrests for robbery. Also the black poverty rate was 27.4% (about 3 times higher than the white rate), meaning that 11.5 million blacks in the U.S. were living in poverty.

    • Nothing will change for the good until people take off their rose color glasses and see the real problems caused by the liberals in both political parties.

  2. We all suffer from those that vote for the Democratic Party.

  3. All of this is alright but the most important part of all is what was done to education in the process. Even before we took GOD out of the equation, The 1st
    Amendment was being eroded by hundreds of years of lying Journalists. Keeping “only 1” rhetoric going for 100 years about a multi-faceted turbulent time (that of both Anti- and Post- Bellum America) only continues to fuel to current hatred that
    plagues a country that once lived by “GOD is love”. Truth must be revived in America.

  4. You people are way too relaxed to allow the government to brake the Constitution. You need to realize that the same people in power that brake the Constitution are the same that are making Nanny States, they are the same that broke the Costitution everywhere in the world where there is democracy. In Italy they broke the art. 27 with the excuse of terrorism. Art. 41-bis was born that allows the gov. to resctrict personal freedom, put a person into isolation for years. They can put a prisoner into a room with nothing into it, not even a bathroom, with glasses around as if it is an animal while a guard is watching him from the outside. The gov. is now braking art. 3 of the Constitution by causing harm to anyone that want to grow as citizen, by using money and taxes as a wepon. Remember that a gov. that brakes the Constitution is not driven by a religion nor by social values, they also make money in the stock market when making a mandatory law that require the use of a particular product for safety reasons or for a tax purpose. You guys fight only the law for taxes over the personal property however whoever fights such tax is often prone to make wars. It is not the only tax that need to be fought. The dictator, quite likely coming for the NWO is almost in control of America. They want such control and they got it already with mandatory laws for vehicle insurance, with car anti-theft, with seat-belts while driving a vehicle, with many other laws. If you are cooked will all are cooked. Taxes on gas in Europe are 3 folds higher, the same is for electricity. It’s illegal profit, it’s profit that looks like being invented by Judah that strike always three times. Just wake up and ask to make many states unified that have the power to stop any attack against the Constitution. This is the only way you can fight them without blood shed.
