Remember the axiom of big government bureaucrats: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. When, finally, under the crushing weight of taxes and regulation, it stops moving, subsidize it. Going Postal
Post #117 works for me.

Nope, you're getting all the goods and services provided by the state in return for your tax dollars, including legally enforced civil rights. In fact, unlike a slave, you choose to live here, and you're free to leave at any time.
Government is just the peoples' collective buying plan, just like a co-op has maintenance. The fact your peers chose to spend on things you didn't want doesn't make you a slave.
It just makes you a sore loser who can't stand the fact he can't have his own way in a society that doesn't share his beliefs. You do, however, have the right to vote for representatives who do.

The cotton pickers are heavily armed. Fortunately, our government masters are stupid and have no idea how to run a plantation. Soon, the dependent slaves will be free and the cotton pickers will be taking aim. Your time is short, modern day Jim Crow. Very short.

Very well stated, CR.

No, not getting the political ideology and leadership of your choice is not Jim Crow. Unfortunate as it may be, no one lynches libertoons....yet.
This has never been and never will be a collective. I was promised a choice by far better men than you, Jim. The cotton pickers will be lynching liberals soon enough and your government won't be there to protect you.

Government is like a collective buying plan. That doesn't mean our society is a collective in the sense of a commune or kibbutz.

So we pay for the state to enforce civil liberties that they trounce on every day? Sounds like a scam. Every fucking police department in the country is becoming militarized so no help there.
So enforce a routine audit and cleansing of abuses by the state. Have you? Or do you just vote for someone who bitches about how abusive the state is, but does little to nothing about it once they get into office? I see no business plans for public adminstration by non-liberals. I see no call for audits, followed by cutting the dead weight of non-performing government agencies. All I see is a label (public unions) and attempts to cut that out, without any business data to back up the attack.
If that is how one plans to eliminate the current bloat of a corrupt republic, one will find the replacement to be no better. It will be driven by the best propaganda, rather than the best decisions for administering the public interest.

What call my congressman then? LOL, what a waste of time. An even bigger waste of time than voting for a president. It can't be fixed so it's going to fail, and when that happens we can see about fixing it.

Fixing it, how? Are you proposing public administration, what with all that planning and audit process? Haven't seen anything of the sort from any libertarian or conservative on DA.
I believe you are a right-wing version of the rainbow-farting progressive. Looking for a leader who promises, yet provides too little detail and no delivery.

From one thinking lefty to another ...likewise.
Well, that's a tough question. My primary focus is on surviving in the interim. Small steps but yes the administration would have to be transparent and responsible. The current one is anything but.
Reasonable enough. I've proposed periodic sessions (say, one per every 10 years) where Congress and the WH can only deal with eliminating or reducing laws on the books. If a transparency law were in place before-hand, it could be quite productive. Less shit to deal with, less cost, greater efficiency. A benefit to lefties and righties alike.
This isn't a partisan thing. You have to realize that whatever puppet we elect will carry the same torch. Mr. transparency said one thing and did exactly the other. Romney would be no different. Need to attack the problem at the core or simply start a civil war, but the point being is that executive branch has become too powerful and there is no way to fix it short of tearing the whole place down and fixing it, and I really want to be a part of that process if I'm not too old first.

Democracy means balancing competing interests.
