“Don’t walk before me, I may not follow; Don’t walk behind me, I may not lead; Just walk beside me and be my friend.”

Why do people need, or even want, Rulers and Gods? What is it they think the other guy has that they don’t?  Besides a few minor variations we are all basically the same, and if you have seen one you have seen them all.

Why would anyone give away the ultimate control of his or her destiny to someone else on earth or in the sky? At this point, the God crowd will boo me and say because God is the all-powerful, all-knowing creator of everything. However, no one has ever met this Heavenly creature and all accounts of its existence came from other earthly human beings who make mucho money from the idea. So, just count me out of the God Club.

On second thought let’s give some of “Gods” fans (the ones who don’t try to shove their beliefs down your throat) two points for doing what appears to be trying to merely express gratitude for the Big Bang to the Biggest Banger of all times. The universe is totally awesome and I for one will admit, I did not create the place. It is great to be alive and who wants to give all the credit to your frumpy weak parents?

But worshipping another human being and deferring to their every whim? Come on! Give me a break! This is insane! But this is what we do when we give a president, or any other politician, and their cohorts in crime an arsenal of guns and grant them control over millions of complete strangers in a country, state or city. The whole idea is so idiotic it is unbelievable!

Who is the President, or any other mortal human being, that he or she should decide what any of us can do in the privacy of our own homes or businesses with our own honestly-earned money and property?

Why would anyone revere and respect people who take away our money; limit our choices and opportunities; and, push us around like they own us?  As the old adage goes: With friends like that who needs enemies?

Name one thing a president, or any other elected so-called “leader,” ever did besides give us Grief and Misery?

In reality, all the government does is monopolize the media with frightening propaganda, and pontificate about how we could not possibly live without them. Then, if we the people are having too much fun or getting too happy and prosperous, despite their efforts to the contrary, they declare a crisis, start a “war,” and kill a bunch of people, including our families and friends, in order to reestablish a need for their so-called  “services.” All the while, the Big Boss and his accomplices sit in his big fancy house, all safe and warm while he eats, drinks, and watches himself on FOX News 24/7! And guess what… the joke and the bill are on “We the Suckers!”

Warning: Repeat this procedure as necessary to prevent “Chaos,” otherwise known as a voluntary, peaceful, market-driven society. 

In all seriousness, TV and advances in technology have made government, as we know it, totally outdated, unnecessary and disastrous for Liberty and the overall human condition.

We need to fire all our “RULERS!” ASAP!!

We the Individuals should be casting our votes in the free marketplace, voluntarily, with our honestly-earned money, where we can put a provider of goods or services who does a lousy job out of business.

Hasta la Vista, Baby!

The political or plunder-driven system that we have now is going to put us all in the poor house, the nut house, prison or an early grave…

Freedom Works!

“When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men together in a society, they create for themselves in the course of time a legal system that authorizes it, and a moral code that glorifies it.”

- Frédéric Bastiat (1801-1850)
