What is a Flatlander? A
typical Flatlander cannot see beyond their own limited
experience to envision how things work beyond the horizon of their own
limited realm. Flatlanders have little useful understanding or
appreciation of how things fit together to create a functional moral
and prosperous society. For one reason or another, there appears to be
many flatlanders in our world. If this is you, the Flatlanders Blog just might be for you. Here you will find perspectives that might just allow you to exit Flatland into the real world beyond.

| Flatlander politics are
based upon the practice of organizing groups of Flatlanders into little
pens with fences high enough so those in one pen cannot see (and
ideally have no desire to see) from their little pen into their
neighbors pen. The PRESSident (aka liberal PRESS) teaches these groups to live happily
within their little 'pen'. |
|
| The Flatlander Politician retains their power by tossing a few tidbits of fairness
into each pen as they make their political rounds. When Flatlander
problems arise, everyone is trained to quickly point blame at the self
reliant freedom loving folks living outside the pens as the cause of
all Flatlander problems -- Haleluhayh and Amen... Pitting one or more
penned up group of Flatlanders against the self reliant in our society
is what passes for Flatlander "leadership". |

Flatlander Sermon of Fear
|
|
'If you sail out of the Bay of Compassion across the ocean of public
debt in search of self reliance and fiscal responsibility, you, your
family, friends and country will fall off the edge of the earth before
reaching the mythical realm of freedom and personal responsibility. |
|
|
It's better to stay in your comfortable little Flatlander pen where
I, the almighty Flatlander politician, will take care of you.' |
|
|
|
Until our nation (and civilization) drops its flatlander fears and
sets sail towards the mythical realm of personal responsibility and
self relion the other side of the civilized world, we will continue to
live in a society and civilization more and more dominated by flatlander political
thought and its resulting fiscally and morally bankrupt society.
Oh boy... Can't hardly wait to move on?
