Umm ... you lost me.

Are you using the word "Leviathan" to mean "greed"?

Like Trump turning everything into a transaction that empowers and eniches only him, expanding his autocratic "authority" as president to continue to do more of the same cashing in on his greed?

Otherwise, I don't get who or what you are referring to by the use of the word "Leviathan".

Thanks for the opportunity to explore this and share.

Ned et al, government will be molded towards some ideology whether the vision of the Founders or some other vision. With the rise of the era of the progressivist state 125 years ago (the outgrowth of elements of heretical post-millenial Christianity) which fostered the idea that government through the aegis of the academic complex, could solve the ills of society through the application of the social sciences and government funded interventions. If what you are saying is correct, somewhere in the last century, it appears to have deviated from the mission of 'solving' problems. Why and when did this mission switch occur?

The Left’s endorsement of a Mamdani prove this conclusively.

They are willing to burn it all down by any means necessary if that’s what it takes to retain power. Damned be the consequences.

They must be utterly crushed and exiled to furthermost regions of the universe if we are to stand a chance of rescuing this country from their grip.

Well, there's "... no longer see neighbors but enemies ..." right there for ya!

Is this what the author considers the intention and product of the unregulated greed of those in 'power' - Trump and the billionaire class? <-- is that the "Leviathan" in the author's vision of things?

Thanks for the opportunity to explore this and share.
