I have a message for all you busybodies, bureaucrats, rent-seekers, and whored-out legislators.
LEAVE US THE HELL ALONE.
Get out of my contracts.
Get off of my land.
Leave my property alone.
Stay the hell out of my bedroom.
Most of all, KEEP YOUR NOSES OUT OF MY BUSINESS.
And everyone else’s for that matter.
H/T: Below the Beltway and The Liberty Papers
I think at heart we are all Libertarians: take care of my protection (police, arm, etc), take care of the roads (so I can safely and easily get to my favorite comic book store and strip joint), and stay the fuck out of the rest of my life. It’s too bad that when things get a little bit rocky (usually because government stuck their noses in our business 10 years ago but no one remembers they actually caused the problem), people turn BACK to the government, the very people who screwed them in the first place, looking fro a hand to hold. I admit, its difficult to succeed as a people when the government keeps on pulling the rug out from under us, then offers a helping hand to bring us back to our feet. I just wish people would have the balls to slap that hand away, climb back to their feet themselves, then give the owner of that hand a swift kick to the nads.
We need to be less dependent, not more dependent, on the government.
Peace
