An Interesting Argument For Monarchism

From the USmonarchy group on Reddit, a series of arguments:
I recognize a real and tangible need for our country to re-evaluate our principles, values, and what we expect from our government; most people can agree that some manner of fundamental change would be in our best interest. What we seldom agree on, however, is what changes should be made...

So why monarchism? Why in the world would America need a king?



Reason I: Integrity.

From the lowest representative up to the head of the executive branch, almost all our government officials appear to be bought and paid for, beholden to the special interest groups and lobbyists that fund their election campaigns. That means that the power to regulate, one that is supposed to be invested in the populace, actually resides in the pockets of the wealthy and well-connected. The reality is, what ails our political system cannot simply be remedied by voting; only power in the right hands can do that.

A monarch has direct access to the nation’s treasury, and has no need for palm-greasing or quid pro quo. There is no bribing a king with money or privileges, and they are answerable to no one but God; a monarchy is far better protected from widespread corruption than your average republic. Not only this, but a monarch is set above the various political parties and as a result, is a failsafe against political deadlock and government nullification. The king monitors the political system from outside its boundaries, ensuring that it operates in good faith.

It is in the monarch’s best interest to dedicate their lives to bringing about the greatest quality of life for their citizens; it is in the congressman’s best interest to secure re-election and a comfortable retirement.



Reason II: Unity.

The monarch represents the nation, physically, figuratively and spiritually. In times of prosperity and in strife, they give the people someone to look to for inspiration and and herald as a point of pride. Americans are a very proud people already, but also very divided among lines of race, ethnicity, heritage, party affiliations and so on. The king is God’s deputy on earth, and as such, the monarch’s mission and purpose transcend the earthly classifications we use to define ourselves and exclude others.

Even constitutional monarchs, such as the Japanese Emperor, serve an important role as the avatar of the nation, and a living symbol of their national identity and heritage. The President is not an effective substitute for this role because they are allegiant to a political party; this alienates them from the other half of the nation. President Obama is still terribly unpopular among conservative Southerners, and Trump would have a hard time finding loyalists in Berkeley, CA.

Therefore, in America, we tend towards worship of a more impartial symbol: the flag. It is, in a manner of speaking, nearly as sacred as a typical monarch—but it cannot speak, nor can it unite or inspire us. It cannot assure us of a bright future or console us in times of grief.



Reason III: Dignity.

The monarchy as described by the late Queen Mary of Great Britain is a sacred call from God to dignify and grace the earth. It is referred to in the United Kingdom as the “dignified” branch of government, Parliament making up the “efficient”. The monarch conducts himself with reservation and statesmanship at all times by nature, and this reflects positively on the nation, especially in the eyes of our peers around the world.

The monarch is not part of any political party and typically does not wade around in the mire of politics and partisan game-playing. This protects the image of the nation in the eyes of its citizens (as well as those of other countries) from being tarnished, while continuing to ensure that things get done—and the representatives have a higher temporal power to answer to.



Reason IV: Spirituality.

This is perhaps the most central reason for monarchy, as it’s the one factor that other forms of government cannot even attempt to replicate. As stated earlier, the king governs his dominion with God’s blessing. Even if you are a Parliamentarian, and thus hold that the Sovereign derives authority from the contract formed with his people, the origins of Monarchy are succinctly divine in origin. All Christian monarchs claim a spiritual lineage with David and Solomon, the second and third kings of Israel. Whether you are of a religious affinity or not, it confers an enduring legitimacy and reliability to the monarchy. One that claims God’s blessing as a right to rule is bound to make sure their laws and decrees and actions are spiritually wholesome and just. They are expected to live righteously in word and deed, to honor their spouse and children, to tell the truth, proliferate justice and care for the weak. Many people wish to see republican leaders conduct themselves with stately dignity, but their failure to do so does not break any established laws or protocol; a lying, thieving, corrupt king has violated his sacred oath to God and his people, and invited his own legitimacy to be called into question.



Reason V: Economy.

Monarchies in the modern-day are exceptionally more wealthy and financially stable than republics in most comparisons. Due to the aforementioned reasons, a monarch tends to inspire loyalty to the State in a way that political parties and their figureheads cannot. That loyalty breeds stability, especially in diverse and multicultural nations where friction between ethnic groups and ideologies is a constant factor. All this tends to make foreign investment and trade into the kingdom very desirable, and its citizens typically enjoy a higher standard of living than in republics.

In conclusion, I believe monarchy is a more favorable and effective option for America in the present day. Monarchs are exponentially more accountable than republican leaders, certainly have the ability to act with more latitude, and use faith to guide their actions and justify their sovereignty. Through the adoption and accession of a monarch in America, we may begin to reintroduce dignity and virtue to the head of state—without sacrificing the underlying ideas that define and distinguish the U.S. of A. A monarch would not solve all of our problems overnight, but steady and righteous governance would be a great start.

Now you know the purpose and reasoning behind this community, as well as some sentiments I’ve found other monarchists to share.

The group also cites this interesting quotation:

"“The three most ancient opinions concerning God are Anarchia, Polyarchia, and Monarchia. The first two are the sport of the children of Hellas, and may they continue to be so. For Anarchy is a thing without order; and the Rule of Many is factious, and thus anarchical, and thus disorderly. For both these tend to the same thing, namely disorder; and this to dissolution, for disorder is the first step to dissolution. But Monarchy is what we hold in honor.”
― Gregory of Nyssa

  1. Just like our traitorous elites and politicians, the “Royal” family in Britain, the family occupying Windsor Castle, does not care what nationality or race their subjects are
    So long as they have SUBJECTS.
    For them, nations are merely things to trade among themselves.
    And be destroyed at will.

  2. When someone quotes the butcher Churchill and says "Democracy is the worst form of government except for all the other ones," they are fools.

    Classic European style "old regime" monarchy is the least bad form of government. It tends to be least exploitative and preserves the capital value of the nation. European kings could never get away with the economic degradation, totalitarianism, and endless war of modern western social-democracies.
