FBI Caught Planting Microphones Under Rocks, Inside Light Fixtures, and at Bus Stops in California<\/a><\/h3>\n

When a reporter for the United States Army Training and Doctrine Command interviewed Frank Zappa for the commands news syndicate, the story was held by a superior who demanded that Zappa \u2013 who had been rather hard on the army \u2013 answer one more question: just who does he think will defend the country without the army?\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Zappa\u2019s reply: \u201cFrom what? The biggest threat to America today is it\u2019s own federal government\u2026. Will the Army protect anybody from the FBI? The IRS? The CIA? The Republican Party? The Democratic Party?\u2026.The biggest dangers we face today don\u2019t even need to sneak past our billion dollar defense system\u2026.they issue the contracts for them.\u201d The interview was not run.\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

*Note: It\u2019s uncertain\u00a0whether the above exchange ever took place, since the interview was never run. Nevertheless, the point is clear,\u00a0instructive\u00a0and serves as the perfect introduction for this post, whether the words were actually said or not.<\/em><\/p>\n

One of the greatest afflictions affecting these United States at the moment is the general public\u2019s overwhelming gullibility\u00a0when it comes to\u00a0government. You may\u00a0think this sounds insane given surveys that consistently\u00a0show Congress with a less than 10% approval rating, but I think this clouds the fact that most people have yet to accept just how completely corrupt and authoritarian government has actually become.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t mean for this to become some sort of big rant against government in general. Our founders set up a brilliant system which\u00a0has served the country well for over two centuries. What people seem to forget is our\u00a0system of government wasn\u2019t set up to create a new set of parental authority figures for the public.<\/p>\n
