Why did Kant, Hegel, Kierkegaard, and all the great philosophers know so little about the real world? Ever heard of Eddie Levert, Sammy Strain, Frank Little, Jr., and Walter Williams? The philosophizing soul brothers—the O’Jays crooned these words in For the Love of Money:
Money, money, money, money, money
Some people got to have it
Some people really need it
Listen to me, y’all
Do things, do things, do things—bad things—with it
You want to do things, do things, do things—good things—with it
Talk about cash money, money
Talk about cash money, dollar bills, y’all—come on now
Yeah, yeah…
Money can do good things. Money can do bad things. Those chasing good seldom consider the damage the love of money causes. Money is the ultimate aphrodisiac because it buys all other aphrodisiacs—the deadliest of which is power.
Years ago, I owned a chain of retail stores. One underperformed. I knew someone—likely the manager—was stealing. I sent my team to audit, take inventory, review tapes, and check cameras. Each time, they reported the store clean. I said, “Boys, I know that manager is stealing. Go again.” I was right. How could I know without stepping foot in the store? BECAUSE IT WAS MY DAMN MONEY!
The federal government faces the same problem. It belongs to no one, yet millions leech off it. Good people fail to see how bad bad people really are. Thankfully, dear Reader, you have me—a man of erudite wisdom and experience who is always right.
The U.S. government is being pilfered, looted, robbed, pillaged, and plundered. Why? Bad people crave power. Money buys power. In politics, power buys money. The sneaky bastards of the Left have manipulated government coffers for decades. Unlike you—honest and charitable citizen—these people are predators. Wolves in wolves clothing.
Sant-Just, Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Castro, Bernie Sanders—none had jobs. These “Jobless Snits,” the Sniterati, produced nothing voluntarily bought—not even a widget. They were clever, yes, but also lechers, manipulators, and thieves. However, they produced one product in great abundance. Useful idiots! Under Lucifer’s influence, they were experts at radicalizing the envious and weak-minded.
Federal workers once passed civil service exams. Competent but unambitious, they earned less than private-sector peers, content with 9-to-4:30 security. DEI candidates failed the exams, so they were scrapped. Today, federal workers are dumber than bags of rocks yet paid out of the wazoo. The Sniterati built a patronage machine spanning all levels. AI and private-sector efficiency could eliminate 80% of these jobs and double efficiencies. Over 90% vote Democratic. Machiavellian: vote for us, gain power, earn big money for worthless, needless work. I know the truth hurts, dear Reader—but my job is to be an oracle of truth.
The Sniterati funneled massive tax dollars into education, capturing academia. Teachers’ unions bankroll pinko causes. Universities have become laundering machines, funneling government funds to “friends” who indoctrinate students and advance Leftist agendas.
They expanded government into illegitimate functions, cloaked in benign names, part of a wash–rinse–spin cash cycle. DOGE exposed hundreds of billions flowing to friendly nonprofits—fronts laundering money back to benefit the Sniterati. Recall Judge Boasberg, the Trump-hating activist. His wife, daughter, sister, and relatives are all on the left-wing nonprofit “fake jobs” program. A fine racket for people who can’t change a lightbulb.
Nick Shirley, a 23-year-old high-school graduate, exposed nearly $19 billion in Minnesota daycare, healthcare, and transportation fraud. Funny how politicians and media never pondered how Somalis could be driving Rolls-Royces and Lamborghinis? How did the Somalis outsmart Minnesota officials—or were they taught how to milk the system by the Sniteratis?
Where does the money come from to pay the unhinged Brownshirts rioting in Minnesota or frumpy, ugly, histrionic women to scratch Teslas or wave pre-printed “No Kings” signs? Litigation is expensive, yet every time Trump sneezes, the Left sues. In Virginia, Democrat Abigail SNITberger outspent her Republican rival ten-to-one. Guess where the money originated? Your pockets!
Dark foreign funds? The Democrat laundering mafia is so well oiled, only fools could deny that money from nefarious foreign enemies help fuel their radicalization campaign.
What is to be done? I could list reforms. I’m a fiduciary: if I waste a client’s money, I’m liable. Beneficiaries can sue. Government officials with check-writing authority should face the same standard. Total transparency. Criminal penalties too. Yet these remedies, while necessary will never give the needed relief—the federal and state governments are simply too big to police.
Two real solutions exist: cut the money spigot off. Massive cuts. No Grace Commissions, no policy wonk conferences, no white papers—just slash and burn baby.
Yet politicians seldom restrain themselves when spending other people’s money. The ultimate fix: cut revenue.
A good old-fashioned taxpayer revolt might do just the trick. A little tar and feathering would heighten the likelihood of success.
America is likely rich enough to survive the current looting. The real danger: the Sniterati are megalomaniacal nihilists who, Dear Reader, are using your money to destroy your country and turn it into Cuba.
I suggest Dear Reader before going to the chicken coup to gather feathers and tar from your local Home Depot, read Thomas Paine’s essay The American Crisis. It will motivate you to action, perhaps even more than this enlightened article from your humble author.
