You can find these comments from this article that I submitted on socialmonarch.com. I must admit I am a bit annoyed by the arrogance of the author of this article. This argument made by republicans is not new, however. I'm sure we've all heard this before. Kings and Queen are for fairy tales and bed-time stories.
If that is so, then politicians and "freely elected" heads of state are the stuff of nightmares and by which you scare children. Want to scare your child? Tell them they will be forever paying taxes simply to subsidize the interest alone on their republican national debt. The American Republic's national debt to private bankers and foreign bond owners now exceeds $9 trillion USD.
Want to frighten your children some more? Tell them to be prepared for corruption and demagoguery - they won't have any real choices - Democrats or Republicans. Demoplicans or Republicrats. Choose A or B, but forget about C,D,E,F ... etc. Tell your children about their "freely elected" heads of state and government will take - at every opportunity - their God-given rights. The politicians will spit on their laws, customs and constitutions for personal gain and power.
Prepare your children for communism and fascism, as republics ultimately degenerate into one of these totalitarian regimes. Look at the situation now in Nepal. The Monarchy has been abolished and now petty squabbling has erupted and the power struggles have begun.
This is what your children have to look forward to: a dystopia - perhaps even a police state that will give them the false illusion of choice.
So do yourself and your children a favor: keep telling them those fairy-tale bedtime stories... perhaps they will dream of kings and princes, of times when freedom reigned and justice was upheld.

I just stumbled on your comments and I had the widest smile on my face. How sad and very true. I grew up on fairy tales and loved Kings and Queens. I just look at the British Monarchy and how Queen Elizabeth II has served her nation with duty and dignity. I then looked across the channel at the French and their FIFTH Republic and thought what a world of difference! Petty, no class politicians dripping in egos. France has a foreign President and a foreign First Lady. THAT is what the republic has given the French!
Lara, thank you kindly for your comments. The last of my family to live under a Monarch was my grandfather and also my great-uncle, who server as Royal Guard to His Royal Highness, King Michael I of Romania. My Grandmother was the last Countess to also live under a crown in my family.
Of all Heads of State in the world, I cannot think of a finer or more dignified leader as HRH Queen Elizabeth II. She's above the petty politics and owes her station to NO ONE but the People and to God. Even if you are an atheist, you can appreciate the fact that she does not answer to anyone. And it is good this way, as special interests, bankers, communists, capitalists, and others that would do the people harm have no affect on Her.
Sadly, King Michael and Archduke Otto von Habsburg no longer have relevance in their respective nations, especially Romania, as corrupt as the government is there.
