Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of Edinburgh had this to say about the fall of the Athenian Republic some 2,000 years earlier:
“A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government. A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury.” – Sounds familiar does it not?
“From that moment on, the majority always vote for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship.” – Sounds familiar does it not?
“The average age of the world’s greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has been about 200 years. During those 200 years, those nations always progressed through the following sequence:
1. From bondage to spiritual faith; - For a historical Seychelles perspective, that means from slavery to salvation under the Roman Catholic Church;
2. from spiritual faith to great courage; - Our forefathers built Seychelles, guided by faith, the Roman Catholic Church, God’s will, hard work and discipline; despite all the trials and tribulations they had to overcome, including 2 world wars!
3. from courage to liberty; - Emancipation, end of slavery, freedom at last;
4. from liberty to abundance; Hard work started paying off for our new nation, exploiting our natural resources like fishing, cinnamon, patchouli, coconut/copra etc..;
5. from abundance to complacency; Arrival of SPPF; Coup D’Etat; Army; Tanzanians; NYS; Cubans, Russians & North Koreans; SMB; State Controls; Dictator; One Party State; Communism; Reneism; End of Freedom & Liberty;
6. from complacency to apathy; Laziness under SPPF; Zero productivity; a lethargic nation created by the SPPF!
7. from apathy to dependence; No need to work; SPPF will give you a free house; free land; free schooling; free medicine; free food; free beer; free money; Anything you want, Rene, Michel and SPPF gang will give to you from the coffers while they fill their own accounts with foreign exchange and take state assets for themselves and their cronies!
8. from dependence back into bondage – Back to slavery under the SPPF!
Today, most of the taxpaying citizens of Seychelles are non-SPPF supporters. The 53% who supposedly voted for SPPF mostly encompass those citizens living in government-owned tenements and living off various forms of SPPF welfare. We can clearly say that a good half of our population has already reached the “governmental dependency” stage, while the rest of us work our butts off to feed the other half. Add a few SPPF stalwarts in high government offices who are the parasites feeding off the system, and one can see that we have come full circle and are now back into bondage (SLAVERY).
Since we are the other half who did not vote for SPPF and thus are not their slaves, SPPF has to find new people to turn into slaves. The new generation of citizens now entering our country (South African, Arab, Chinese, Russian, Maldivian, etc) are the new SPPF slaves. SPPF needs their votes, and those new “bonded” citizens are willing to do anything to stay in our country. Thus, SPPF will stay in power longer and we can kiss goodbye to OUR Seychelles in a few years time.
There is a lot at stake. This is OUR country and she belongs to OUR people, to OUR children and their children to come. Today, this is the greatest danger to our freedom. We need to vote SPPF, Michel, Rene and their slaves in the Assembly out of power once and for all and return our country to the days of courage, liberty and abundance. Let us not be fooled anymore by rhetoric and lies from this SPPF Government.
THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND BECAUSE YOUR ANCESTORS FOUGHT FOR FREEDOM FROM SLAVERY. DO NOT LET SPPF TURN US SEYCHELLOIS INTO SLAVES AGAIN! LET FREEDOM REIGN!
