THE MAX ALLEN REPORT
DANGERS OF A POLITICAL
PARTY
THE NEED FOR RICO ACTION
NOT EVERY COIN HAS TWO SIDES
What’s good for the
goose isn’t always good for the gander.
Perhaps it was the ancient philosopher, Confucius, who said, “Every coin has two sides.” Maybe someone else has claimed credit, but I digress. Certainly the meaning of this ancient quote is that there are advantages [pros] and disadvantages [cons] to every decision, thing, and even thought. As we’ll see later, such is not always the case.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOT EVERY COIN HAS TWO SIDES
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For example: I own an electric hybrid car. That’s a car which runs on pure electricity, pure gasoline, or a combination of both simply by pushing a button on the dashboard. Surely my car is similar to that ‘coin with two sides’.
I do most of my commuting and run most of my errands in the electric mode. In my part of the country electricity costs 8 cents per kilowatt hour which means I can drive my car 20 miles on 48 cents worth of electricity. When I venture farther from home and my car uses up its electricity it goes into the ‘auto’ [hybrid] mode. With an enjoyable duty cycle of 50/50 [the car switches from gasoline to electricity and back every 5 highway miles] which gives me terrific mileage. In this mode I get about 70mpg.
Okay, these are the pros of owning this car. Let’s get to the cons: As cars and trucks have become ‘computers on wheels’ my car surely stands at the head of the line for being complex, over-engineered, and potentially nightmarishly expensive to repair in case of failure or break down. Electric motors, laser beams, mini-slave computers, a hi-tech 4 cylinder fuel injected twin turbo gasoline engine, sensors galore, and a fairly hostile learning curve for the driver make this car a frightening prospect in the event of repair.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MY CAR ‘THE COIN’
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let’s sum up ‘the coin’ of my car. It’s a pleasure to drive and handles well. It has plenty of power and costs pennies a day to run. I probably put in a gallon of gasoline a month to keep the car topped off. Con: I must use only premium grade gasoline [$5.60 per gallon] because only it stores well in the tank. As long as my car behaves I have the very best of all worlds especially with gasoline at an all time ‘Biden-induced’ high of over $5 a gallon.
So I’ve rambled on and on about my car, let’s get down to the brass tacks of this discussion today. I see political parties as heavily-weighted cons in American life. The very existence of political parties endangers the American political system.
Both of our major political parties are corrupt beyond belief and those who register with these political parties generally have no idea of just what they’re letting themselves in for.

It’s the nature of man to be lazy whenever occasion provides. It’s the nature of man to let others do the heavy lifting whenever occasion provides. It’s the nature of man to live with his head in the sand leaving virtually every decision of life to others whenever occasion provides. This nature is as much our enemy as the political parties themselves. Political parties prey on the nature of man as described in the previous paragraphs.

POLITICAL PARTIES HAVE BECOME
MINI-GOVERNMENTS
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Following human nature as described earlier, the existence of a political party allows the voter to delegate responsibility to the party without even a second thought. The voter steps into the booth on Election Day looking for the letter [D] or [R] so they can colour in ‘the right boxes’ or flip ‘the right levers’. They have no idea of the character or record of the person they are voting for, but simply vote by party as their parents, grandparents, great grandparents, and so have done. For them, voting by party has become a tradition, even an ingrained behaviour pattern.

BY AND LARGE, WE DESERVE WHAT
WE GET
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, with political parties dominating the elections of the nation and people bleating like sheep, what can we do in order to raise the quality of those people in elected office? The answer is simple: Ban Political Parties.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BAN ALL POLITICAL
PARTIES/ORGANIZATIONS
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Legal punishments should exist for anyone engaging in organized political activities such as Democrat or Republican Conventions. The very existence of these erstwhile criminal organizations should be prosecuted under RICO [Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act] statute. This would bring about a marvellous turn of events, those being that those who vote would now have to give some thought [however little] to whom it is they will vote for.
No longer would Cletus and Bobby Jo be able to zoom through a ballot sheet in a matter of seconds. They would be forced to read at a level above that which simply allows them to see a single letter. They would have to search the ballot sheet for someone they trust or at least believe to be the ‘least worst’ of choices. Wow!
Certainly such a world would eliminate untold thousands [millions?] from voting, but that would be a good thing. I mean, if you’re too lazy or too stupid to become even slightly vetted in your knowledge of those running for office you really needn’t pollute our system of government with your lazy or moronically simplistic outlook on life. If you’re that stupid, ignorant, or lazy then nobody cares what you want or think! Elections would naturally begin to lean in the direction of those who give even an iota of thought to whom they should choose to lead.

What you are looking at here is a man who openly challenged the intellect, memory, and needs of the people aware of their ineptness, apathy, and ignorance, and swept into office because people voted for a letter, not a man. This ‘man of the letter’ was able to run for office, and now re-election, backed by a ‘RICO-like’ political party. With them as his backers the corruption of government in this small and relatively insignificant state will most assuredly continue to grow like a virus and further infect the lives and livelihoods of the people in that doomed state.
Presidents, Senators, Congressmen, Governors, Sheriffs, Mayors and more have found their way to the top of the heap through affiliation with these political parties. As long as parties rule the roost, the chickens will vote for them, and all will suffer.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THIS COIN HAS ONLY ONE SIDE
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strong evidence would suggest this pertaining to federal, even presidential, elections as well. An ignorant, apathetic, and lazy electorate are quite probably what brought ‘Bumbling Joe Biden’ into office as President of the world’s most powerful nation. We must ban and criminalize all political organizations. In challenge to the idea of Confucius, this coin has only one side!
I’m Max, and that’s the way I see it!
