A majority of voters spoke this past Tuesday, November 8, 2022. They told Connecticut that they are embracing and endorsing four more years of a future of an energy crisis especially for heating oil and diesel, food shortages, an illegal drug crisis, a public education crisis, runaway inflation, mandatory vaccines for children, vaccine passports, personal data collection, massive uncontrollable crime and theft, higher taxes and tolls, and two different set of laws with one not applicable to the Democrat Party (especially Ned Lamont's family hedge fund) and another set that must be followed by the common working men and women of the state. By the majority of voters' actions this past Tuesday it will be safe to say that Connecticut will be in the same state of emergency, economic despair and social crisis two and four years from now with a Governor and his never ending Covid-19 emergency powers, along with some of the highest tax rates in the country, poorest business rankings in the country and highest per person capita debt in the country. It looks rather bleak for the state.
Connecticut's problems did not go away this past Tuesday. Even though a majority of voters have embraced these same problems on Election Day, buyers remorse will set in. Ned Lamont, whose Republican Candidate for Governor Bob Stefanowski omissively said was not corrupt, nor a "bad guy" (10/27/22 WFSB TV 3 "CT22: A conversation with the Republican candidate for Governor") is in my opinion corrupt and a "bad guy" by his many actions and lack of transparency in his Administration for the past four years. From his dealings with Sema-4 and his suspicious non profit shell games, no answers to any questions came forth during the campaign which was a major failure to the citizens of Connecticut. I am confident that these backroom dealings will be going into overdrive in the next few months with zero questioning by Connecticut's obedient state run media. Connecticut Taxpayers will be financing the Lamont's excesses with their tax monies. You get what you vote for.
Coming out of this election is also the absolute helplessness of the Connecticut Republican Party in my opinion. With the exception of a few principled Conservatives the party seems hopelessly split into different camps. One side hates all things of former President Trump with a strong RINO influence almost like the old Rockefeller Republicans and the other side has working men and women who have strong libertarian and conservative principles. Looking at the two failed campaigns of Tom Foley and now two more losses by Bob Stefanowski maybe the next Republican Party candidate for Governor rather than being a multi-millionaire could be a homegrown candidate who is much more in tune with the party, the state and its people. Maybe it could be a priority for the Republicans that in a state that has over 3.3 million people in it to field candidates in every elected office, every two years. No more unopposed races. Maybe they need to look at the efficiencies of the Florida Republican Party and their roadmap to success rather than the u-turns, cowardice, roadblocks and potholes they seem to embrace each campaign and election. In my opinion there are many hard working members of the Connecticut Republican Party who never get heard year in and year out. Maybe the party bosses could give them their say and promote their ideas for a change in the coming months. If what you have been doing has not worked for 30 plus years now why not try something new? If not, we can certainly look forward to more failures.
So what is next? I know for me I am contemplating ending my chapter in all things Connecticut politics. The Connecticut political system and its' state government to me is a deceptive, incoherent, labyrinth of false promises, lies, a "members only" club, and shameless ego gratification that does little to help the Taxpayers who must fund it and must never question it. I have always been conservative and make no excuses for it. I believe in personal freedoms and free markets. High taxes, rampant crime, horrific cities, omnipotent one party rule, poor government and suppression of personal freedoms led me to leave. There are contrary to what the Connecticut Democrat Party wants you to believe, better, and less taxed states to live in throughout our great country.
Thus starting on Saturday November 26 "Swick Speak" will be revamped and will look at more than just Connecticut. I will continue to write about governmental/political corruption since I despise it and also about how our political system influences our economy to the point that it hurts our economy and capitalism. The blog will be on a more national level however I will still visit Connecticut's corruption which in my opinion will never end.
The battle for freedom, transparency in government at all levels, and the end of corruption in government seems never to end. I personally will never give up the fight for what is right and just for all Americans. Connecticut's elected officials, media and state government are examples of what is wrong with our political system and Taxpayer funded governments in 2022. Never yield for it is truly 1776 all over again.
