Balancing the Extremes not flipping from one to the other

I've talked about how the pendulum swings from left to right in politics. As soon as the pendulum swings too far left it loses support and starts to swing the other way until it swings too far right and starts to swing back the other way. 

As I've said before, it's not a choice between Socialism and Fascism. Both are bad. It's about common sense and balancing those two extremes. Finding a plumb line so to speak.

Donlad Trump campaigned on the promise to drain the swamp and tackle corruption in Washington. All the did was remove rivals just like everyone else. Then he went way too far. 

In his first term he campaigned on building a wall to stop illegal immigration. Then Biden did the exact opposite and allowed mass illegal migration of unvetted immigrants without a criminal record check who all wanted free housing and for the government to pay them not to work.   

Paying migrants not to work is insane. That's the problem. Hunting down migrants who are working is also insane. It's a waste of tax dollars. In an illegal commits a violent crime then deport them. Hunting down nonviolent migrants who are working is a waste of tax dollars. You're supposed to be reducing debt not creating more debt.  

Before pot was legalized is was a crime to spoke pot. Putting all the pot smokers in jail was a waste of tax dollars. Just like hunting down migrants who are working is. 

CBC recently did another discourse about gender nonsense. LGBT makes sense. Q plus is extreme. Trump banning men from competing in women's sports is common sense. So is protecting women and children from male stalkers in their bathrooms. That's important. 

SOGI in school is child abuse. Grooming children to change their gender before they'e old enough to vote is child abuse. Q + is infinite. there are no boundaries. Everyone needs healthy boundaries. Just because Donald Trump went too far, that doesn't mean we have to go back to the other extreme. 

Just because Fascism failed, that doesn't mean we have to go back to Communism. It means both ideologies are bad and we need to find a balance between the two where civil liberty is protected by law. We need to protect the Constitution and read the Federalist Papers so we can understand the Constitution in context not water it down with nonsense.

  1. The Yin/Yang symbol is the model. Balance is achieved only at the mid point between constant movement from one extreme to the other. It's a cycle. The symbol is not stationary, it turns, we forget that because we draw it in static fashion. The wheel always turns. All of human history mirrors this, that is why the symbol is wisdom.
