50 Shades of Tyranny

As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following artwork here, being shared by the page, “Liberty Outlook,” and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…

"I will act violently on peaceful people to acquire... Total Socialism: energy, clothing, housing, food Modern Liberalism: universal healthcare Modern Conservatism: unemployment insurance, retirement insurance, limited healthcare (for seniors and poor), limited housing, food, energy (for the poor - 'safety net'), education Classical Liberalism: fire protection, roads Minarchism: police, military, courts Anarchy: I'm not willing to act violently on peaceful people. I will seek to acquire desired services without aggression through voluntary relationships."

“I will act violently on peaceful people to acquire…
Total Socialism: energy, clothing, housing, food
Modern Liberalism: universal healthcare
Modern Conservatism: unemployment insurance, retirement insurance, limited healthcare (for seniors and poor), limited housing, food, energy (for the poor – ‘safety net’), education
Classical Liberalism: fire protection, roads
Minarchism: police, military, courts
Anarchy: I’m not willing to act violently on peaceful people. I will seek to acquire desired services without aggression through voluntary relationships.”

My Commentary: 50 Shades of Tyranny. Enter through the narrow gate, and embrace the Law of Liberty.

Never Forget That, in the End, Every Law is Enforced at Gunpoint, and Under Threat of Abduction and Imprisonment

As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following artwork here, being shared by the page, “Voluntary Virtues Network,” and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…

"There should be a draft where every young person has to do one year of something - military, public works - something so that we feel invested in the same game, because that's the part we've lost." - John Stewart ""We should extort money from people and pay men with guns to force people to do arbitrary, and sometimes criminal things, for at least a year. That way, we'd all feel united as slaves." - Translation, by Jeff Berwick

“There should be a draft where every young person has to do one year of something – military, public works – something so that we feel invested in the same game, because that’s the part we’ve lost.” – John Stewart

“We should extort money from people and pay men with guns to force people to do arbitrary, and sometimes criminal things, for at least a year. That way, we’d all feel united as slaves.” – Translation, by Jeff Berwick

My Commentary: Never forget that, in the end, every law is enforced at gunpoint, and under threat of abduction and imprisonment. So, please stop suggesting the use of State violence against peaceful people in your hopelessly naive, pathetically misguided attempt to “help.”

Think volunteer public service is a good idea? Cool! Then, get off your ass, and get to work! Try leading by example, and stop stooping to coercion!

(Larry O’Connor) Without the teeniest sense of irony, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has proposed that America’s Olympic medal winners should not have to pay taxes on the cash prizes they are awarded with their medals.

Schumer’s reasoning behind lifting the tax? Because “hard work” and excellence shouldn’t be punished

My Commentary: Think about the Truth of Schumer’s words…
