If you have any morals left you need to stop voting all together. Government is supposed to rest on the “consent of the governed“, so stop consenting! Unless of course you consent to all this murder and theft. And if that is the case you’re just as evil as Obama and McCain. And I pity you.
If these thugs are just going to completely scrap the whole idea of individual rights than why don’t we just bring back the Hammurabi Code. Michael Cordova and James Costigan please step up for your Curb Slam!
My favorite part is how scum like this actually have the gall to call themselves “civil servants”. First of all no one in a civil society acts like that. Secondly when I think of the word servant the first image that comes to mind is this:
So may we please start calling these thugs what they really are? My choice is “Parasitic Masters”.
The Government's Title of Ownership...On Your Life!
Whenever people buy and sell goods and services they are actually exchanging titles of ownership. In his essay “Justice & Property Rights” Murray N. Rothbard states:
In short, when I buy a hula hoop for $1, what I am actually doing is exchanging my title of ownership to the dollar in exchange for the title to the hula hoop; the retailer is doing the exact opposite. (Murray N. Rothbard, Egalitarianism as a Revolt Against Nature: And Other Essays; Second Edition(Auburn, Al.:The Mises Institute, 2000) p. 89.)
When the government conscripts its citizens they are telling the individual “I own your life!” Basically they are claiming to possess a title of ownership on his life, how comforting. Now for those of us who propose living in a just society of mutual cooperation, the idea that someone or some institution can claim a title on your life is one we would certainly abhor. Don’t get me wrong someone does have a title of ownership on your body and your life, and that person is you! If you want to voluntarily hand over that title of ownership to another person or institution more power to you.
The reason I bring this up is because I hate John McCain. Yes that War Criminal who happily “Bombed, Bombed” the people of Vietnam and who can’t wait to murder more innocent people, this time in Iran. John McCain thinks that he actually has titles of ownership on all of our lives.
“If you could design a draft where everybody equally would serve.” – John McCain
Which brings us back to Murray N. Rothbard. If you do anything today please read this essay. Rothbard explains why the mindset that McCain is operating on, egalitarianism, is utterly flawed and destructive to liberty and justice.
Oh yeah! Don’t vote for John McCain unless you want every 18-40 year person you know to “equally” serve the Warfare State. Same goes for BarackOBombYa!
“Nobody said this to me directly but I get the feeling from my talks that if the sanctions don’t work Israel is going to strike Iran,” Obama was quoted as telling Democratic congressmen Tuesday, according to ABC News.
Obama reportedly told Olmert that he is interested in meeting the Iranians in order to issue clear ultimatums. “If after that, they still show no willingness to change their nuclear policy, then any action against them would be legitimate,” an Israeli source quoted him as saying. (Emphasis mine)
Let me explain why these quotes are important. Back in July of 2002 the Bush Administration had already decided that there would be a War on the people of Iraq and that nothing would stop them from acheiving their goal. Officials knew that what they needed to do was convince, not only the American people but, “The World Community of Nation-States” of the “justice” of their aggresive invasion. And so the Charm Offensive began! For months and months we heard about how we would work with UN Weapons Inspectors and that it was the evil Saddam who was hindering diplomacy. Former UN Weapons Inspector Scott Ritter makes the case that the Bush Administration never intended on using diplomacy at all. Instead they used “a smoke-screen of diplomacy” as they manuevered ever so closely to war.
Fast forward to 2008. We hear the Democratic Presidential nominee who is supposed to be the “peace candidate” calling for diplomacy with Iran. At the same time he says that ”A nuclear Iran would pose a grave threat and the world must prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon”. Funny how the Democratic nominee won’t even mention the fact that the Iranians are not working on developing a nuclear weapon. You know kind of like how Saddam never had WMD or connections to Al’ Qaida .
We are witnessing the same “Charm Offesive” that took us into Iraq half a decade ago. The decision has already been made that there will be War on the people of Iran. Obama is just playing the game and he’s hoping you’re either not smart enough to figure out what he is doing or that you’re so Hopefully Hopetastically Hopeful that you won’t even care!
those thugs with dark costumes who hold a monopolyon violence. The same degenerates who shove their guns in our bellies as they point to the cages they have prepared for us, with our stolen property of course.
I’m thinking about freedom.
Whenever I have the discussion on why we should abolish government completely the issue of the Po Lice inevitably arises. Usually it only takes a couple minutes, if not seconds, for someone to ask “What about the police?”. Everyone I’ve talked to seems to have this fear that once we do away with our current monopolyof violence the sixth seal will be broken and the End of The World Cosmos will surely ensue.
Have no fear my friends I am here to ensure you that nothing of the like would happen. Instead people would be free to choose if they think thier time preferences call for spending money every month on a protection agency, most likely as an arm of an insurance agency. Basing protection on the profit/loss motive would discourage this kind of behavior, this kind and this kind! And that’s just in my fair city imagine if that crude use of force ceased all over the world!
I’m not saying abuses of power would never happen, what I’m arguing for is the creation of a system where oppurtunities to abuse power are vastly diminished and where victims and soon to be victims have a better recourse to justice then they do now. Giving a family $900,00 or $1.3 million is not justice; especially since the money comes from is stolen from the non-aggressive taxpayers and while the cold-blooded murderers keep their jobs after only “a slap on the wrist”. Having the option to call and cancel my “policy” is a much better “check on corruption” than our current tax-funded system allows for.
If you really want to keep your Police Departments and your SWAT Teams then I’ll meet you half way. How about the police start raising their funds like say, I don’t know, Quiznos would. They have services that they offer for a price. If you feel you need these services so badly then you should proceed to form a contract with said police department. If I don’t feel I need the “services” that they are advertising to me then I would proceed to keep my money or spend it on another good or service I would find that I think benefits me. Then if I transgress against you or your property (which I won’t!) you can call your insurance agency, woops, I mean police department to come to your rescue. The providers of security would then take me to a jail that you paid for through your monthly “Police Payments”. We would then both have the recourse of taking the case to the private courts of our own choosing.
The question that needs to be put forth to all of those who support the current monopoly on violence held by the state is: Why can’t I or anyone else be free to choose if we really want to pay for these “services” or not? Why can’t we be free to make our own decisions? You let me choose what beer I prefer when I go to the Kwik-E-Mart right?
