We’ve heard of Saul Alinsky’s Rules for
Radicals. The Mises Institute published
The Seven Rules for Bureaucracy. Here is
the general outline. Click the link
below to read the article.
Rule #1: Maintain the
problem at all costs! The problem is the basis of power, perks, privileges, and
security.
Rule #2: Use crisis
and perceived crisis to increase your power and control.
Rule #3: If there are
not enough crises, manufacture them, even from nature, where none exist
Rule #4: Control the
flow and release of information while feigning openness.
Rule #5: Maximize
public-relations exposure by creating a cover story that appeals to the
universal need to help people.
Rule #6: Create
vested support groups by distributing concentrated benefits and/or entitlements
to these special interests, while distributing the costs broadly to one's
political opponents.
Rule #7: Demonize the
truth tellers who have the temerity to say, "The emperor has no
clothes."
Americans are finally
waking up to this whole charade. Hopefully, we’ll be able to throw off our
shackles and dismantle this slave ship.
