Why the US Federal Government is a Tyranny and a Threat

Why the US Federal Government is a Tyranny and a Threat in Today's World

The United States of America were a geopolitical  weapon against a foreign threat of global proportions to begin with. Initially it was the British Empire that had threatened the existence of the free, independent American states. Later, the united states had to give up part of their freedom and independence so that they, streamlined by the federal centralized power in Washington, could become a unified power against The British Empire.

In the 19th century, the united states, governed as a military unit by the federal government, became increasingly militarized both economically and politically. Mostly due to corrupt practices of the politicians in the ever bigger federal government, an ever increasing range of political and economic freedoms of the states had been sacrificed to placate the growing appetites of the federal center.

By the time the WWI began, the US economy had already been war-oriented and serving the needs of the US war industry interests. That is when the federal government became an instrument of federal tyranny, aimed at usurping in a centralized way the resources of the individual states rather than protecting the latter from external threat. Wars became a pretext and a prerequisite for the legitimization of the federal government and its corrupt practices with the lobbying interests of the growing military-industrial complex and foreign bankers.

Recurrent overseas wars became a necessary, indispensable component of the US economy, run by the oligarchy-controlled government in Washington, DC. Peaceful American democracy was being turned into an ever increasing federal tyranny of constantly war-mongering sell-out politicians, who no longer served the interests of the united states' peace and prosperity but the interests of a limited group of super-rich families that controlled the federal government in Washington.

The economy of such a union thrived in the preparation for and during the WWII, as well as in the post-war years. The war-based economy of misled American states expanded during the Cold War period, and it continued to rely on fathomed global threats after the fall of the Soviet Union.

The corrupted federal government became a misleading force in domestic politics that would lead the American states further away from true federalism and democracy and ever so closer to a disguised form of centralized dictatorship by the most powerful corporations, including those from oil and heavy industry, and central banks. Even in the absence of any rational ground, the military-industrial complex of the United States of America continued to expand through the expansion of NATO finding justification for its existence in ever expanding range of false global threats, including the threat of "global terrorism".

The US federal government became a tyranny to American people and all the peoples of the world. The forces behind the expansion of America's federal government powers and the military might of its demoralized Armed Forces, including through its NATO partnership, rely heavily on the ongoing unjustified and unjustifiable war conflicts throughout the world. It is those forces that are most interested in reviving their global confrontation with Russia and/or China, regardless of the foreign policies of the latter.

The future of America as a free union of independent states is at stake! Global peace, development, and prosperity are at stake! The key problem is not the policies of Russia, China, European Union or the American united states. The problem is the existence of the US federal government as we know it, which is constraining the peaceful efforts of the states and relying on the NATO alliance as a global war instrument, which has a military might that makes the temptation of its use irresistible to some people in Washington and which maintenance has already become so expensive that it makes its eventual use all but economically inevitable.

Moreover, the existence of America as a militarist union aimed at thwarting any global threat whatsoever has become irrelevant in today's world of mutually dependent economic and political subjects of international relations. In the absence of true imperial global threats, the existence of NATO and war-oriented economic and political systems of the united states in North America, serving as the pivot of the military alliance, become obsolete both morally and economically.

The United States as a military machine that had been designed to resist existential threats to separate states and groups of nations has become too expensive to maintain and too outdated to navigate the seas of modern global politics. The US/NATO military machine has lost its efficiency! It became a burden rather than a remedy.

It is time to scrap the outdated union of the American states, as that centralized federal government has proved largely ineffective in addressing most of the pressing needs of the peoples of the states. The burden of the federal government of the US on the states has become too heavy and pronounced. Whereas the existence of the union and the sacrifices that the states have to make in order to support it have become unjustified, no matter how hard the corrupted politicians in Washington, DC try to prove otherwise by pouring lies and deceptive propaganda on American people.

There is no evidence that the existence of such a draconian centralized power of Washington, DC is justified. The States of America would certainly be  better off without that constraining power of the federal center. All the resources that are used to support the military machine that is obsolete and too expensive could be used to solve home economic problems of the states. Instead, they are being used to support the dysfunctional federal legislature and corrupt judiciary apparatus while keeping up the appearances of the democratic process that no one believes any more.

It is time to think about easing the power grip of Washington, DC and giving all autonomy and independent status to the states that find it more lucrative to secede from the union. This would make the American states, freed from the burden of the federal center, even more prosperous. It would free enormous resources. The US should stop playing the outdated role of a military stalwart at the expense of the individual states. It is not justified and it causes more problems than it can resolve in the modern-day world.
