And how exactly did they fake their images and build their political power to rule over us? Looking back from the 21st century, the answer was clear: Through "daddy". As long as they had that automatic paycheck and no competitive pressures, they faked their livelihoods and manhoods. They were basically lazy at human life's fundamental responsibility of producing values. They could articulate intelligently, hold positions of reverence, look good before the media, and spend long hours using their smart, well educated minds building their political power. Yet, they faked their livelihoods and manhoods, faked producing values, as long as "daddy" was providing automatic money. They never had to face reality and come down to earth and earn money by producing values for society. Instead, they went on consuming our money and playing God with our lives.

So, as grown-ups, who was their "daddy"? And where was the nest that bred all this growing madness in the 20th century? In America, the nest was found in one division within one bureaucracy: the Criminal Investigation Division (CID) of the IRS. Not the IRS itself, for any honest business or institution needed a bill-collection service. For our government, that bill-collection service was the IRS. But the Criminal Investigation Division was filled with men who carried guns and generated "criminals" for debt. That inherent brut force assured the money was always there for our leaders...no matter what -- no matter if there were no values coming back to society. The money was always there. For if not, then those who owed money were subjected to the coercive threat of being called criminals and sent to jail. Furthermore, that coercive threat allowed the civil division to inflict cruel and unusual punishment upon innocent delinquents through unreasonable fines and penalties that ruined people's lives and families. The coercive threat of the CID made tens of thousands of those innocent families slaves to the IRS, especially to the whim of the Civil Division, for the rest of their lives. Without the coercive threat of the CID, the Civil Division could not inflict cruel and unusual punishment upon innocently delinquent taxpayers.

Forced payment guaranteed automatic money and allowed our 20th-century government leaders to become lazy, fake their livelihoods and manhoods, and spend all their time busily building their political clout, thus destroying society's prosperity. They did not have to come down to earth and produce values for their paychecks. They did not have to earn wealth, but rather consumed it. They did not have to doggedly produce, but rather flamboyantly boasted. The Criminal Investigation Division was the nest that bred the laziness, the faking it, the self-indulgence, the corruption of our leaders under the old code.

Under the new code, after restructuring into a government of defense only, services were merely cut off to deadbeats who did not pay their fair share of taxes. There was no need to coercively threaten us by making nonpayers criminals. For, that 20th-century tactic was payment under duress. And forced payment provided unconditional paychecks for our leaders in the 20th century, which led to a tax-and-spend government on the offense spending a trillion dollars on "good intentions" or, in other words, on playing God with our money and lives, which caused us to sink knee-deep into the Catastrophic Era.
