12th Book on Ability to Reason, Right to Consent; Proposition, Problem & Poem No. 223

Most likely to be published later this summer of 2022, my 12th book entitled appropriately; Propositions, Problems & Poems on the Peculiar Human ABILITY to REASON, Singular Human RIGHT to CONSENT & Other Neglected Matters. The following will probably be included upon further editing, and front cover a slightly modified yet appropriate version of the 10th and 11th books...



PROPOSITION, PROBLEM & POEM No. 223

~ Qui Tacet Dissentire Videtur / 1st Reprise ~

However, it is necessary if to advocate for both social contracts or constitutions, to do so along with qui tacet consentire videtur or silence implies consent, for upon establishing the perquisite for government’s formation per any-ocracy (yes, including democracy) and/or any-ism (save one), then well enabled the prerequisite for government’s expansion.

To tangentially yet duly note, United States’ Founding Framers else Schemers perhaps intended the sort of expansion aforesaid, although the Anti-Federalists wisely suspected thus the latter’s ardent retorts and counter papers. Alexander Hamilton too although Pro-Federalist was concerned even troubled by the ten amendments to the scheme, citing the Bill of Rights’ mere existence would encourage the trampling of any right not specifically enumerated (see Federalist Paper No. 84).

The historically prudent would be correct to notice among the earliest of events, during the earliest of administrations the transition from the originally accepted constitutional interpretation whatever not written not allowed to the covetously manipulative, constitutional interpretation whatever not written quite allowed. Thence set in motion the incremental then exponential expansion of government powers therefore intrusions upon the individual’s privacies and freedoms.

So it follows the inevitable aforesaid outcomes, for the first few steps included of course the willingness, eagerness even covetousness for conveniency and expediency per the ideologue qui tacet consentire videtur or silence implies consent, cleverly adorned with Democracy’s raiment, the Constitution as crown and scepter, United States then well equipped, enabled then eventually evolved as the Neo Roman Empire. Clearly, the observable, logical, consistent thereby ethical preemption; qui tacet dissentire videtur!

Elitists’ jollity although drollery, as commoners prance in line
Dance in kind per trance like-mind, askance, constant, till benign
Bovines stilled, canines reeled upon the Pavlovian convenience
The usual expediency, insomuch the subsidy unto obedience 

Ergo subtle nuances, so it goes, snakes in pile, calm or riled
Good portends, while Evil pretends, as sanity slips into exile
To Patmos isle, upon insanity’s bile, to flirt in foolish mirth
Misanthropes de trop or not, tho’ hoping of one logical firth

---

Come let us Reason. Peace is always a Choice.
Study, Ponder, Labor, till last Breath.
