Statism, Feminism, Homosexuality, and the Christian Right
May 13, 2009 Philosophy, Politics
I am neither “Left” or “Right”. I stand against statism and for liberty. The problem we see though is the left and the right both seem to feel we must support their causes at federal levels with legislation. Now what we have here is a constant tug of war with issues such as homosexuality, the misunderstood concepts of feminism being opposed by the Patriarchal Christian right and they claw each others eyes out. I support many Feminist ideals. Feminism is the radical notion that women are people too. Feminism acknowledges more than just a woman’s right, it encompass many philosophical concepts that pertain to all races and genders. The “Right” perception of Feminism is often a misunderstanding, leaving much of the right talking ignorantly about the subject. Now this being said, I want to disagree and agree with both the Christian Right and the left at the same time.

You Are The Problem
May 12, 2009 Philosophy, Politics
We all consider ourselves personally responsible. The problems that exist in society is never our fault, but the fault of the other guy, the other group or the other people. Well, if everyone is the responsible one, and everyone else is to blame then who is to take responsibility? Well Government of course. That’s the American way now. If problems exist the government handles it. We pass legislation and we take money and make laws to make others act right. If the problem was not addressed and it was taken control of by government then I have news for you. You were not personally responsible. A part of personal responsibility is being the one to take charge and take care of a problem.
If we are personally responsible we will begin to eliminate the need and presence of government without legislation.
Left vs. Right? Statism Is The Problem
May 11, 2009 Politics
The constant media coverage clings to a misguided belief that is dead and obsolete. It is that the perspectives that issues are a matter of this imaginary left vs. right. That is one of the worst political lies on earth. We blindly accept that there are concepts of statism on the left and statism on the right but nothing else. Really how many Americans call themselves left, right, or see themselves somewhere in between?
The problem with politics is the left and the right. They are concepts of statism. They both hold to large Federal control of the people. They both feel that people are to be controled. That is rubbish. We set up a system that was to eliminate the Federal Bureaucrats from controlling us. Then we eliminated restrictions that were put on them? What the hell? Take the Filibuster concept for a minute. We have all but eliminated this. If these people want to fight for a bill shey should be fighting for it. It should not be this simple to pass legislation to control and take from the people. Cloture is a joke, and needs to be outlawed. Make these people in congress stand up and read the phone book or the Bible Jimmy Stewart style dammit! Make these people show up for work dammit! they are not there to guide us around like sheep.
The problem is the size and power of government. Most issues should be fought here in our neighborhoods not at a federal level. What we have done is to take the most important element out of the equation. That element is the individual. You must fall under federal categories and you must fall in line with limited concepts or it is not valid.
You can not give power to one person without forcing ones self on another. Power and legislation will always impose on another. We must not be naive and just throw out justice, but also we must not allow one people to rule over another. This is oppression. This will breed oppression. This is what we need to fight against.

Breaking News! Phillip Morris Bailout!
May 11, 2009 Fear And Loathing, Politics, Satire
Smoking is perceived as this great immorality now days. Of course it is, we have to push massive taxation on someone, why not create a villain and make the villain pay for the taxes. Do you remember Tea? We had a revolution over this bull. Now we have a smoker in the white house and he is forced to hide it. He knows it’s politically incorrect to buy cigarettes. In a time of economic down turn we decide to go after an American industry and add more taxes? They want people to quit. Never mind the jobs that will be lost from tobacco stores and tobacco companies.
Breaking News! Phillip Morris New Bailout!
You heard it right here. Phillip Morris came on bended knee to Congress today asking for their bailout. Instead of giving tax relief Congress looked at how many jobs would be in jeopardy. Nancy Pelosi wanted to know why they mishandled their company so terribly. Phillip Morris said “We didn’t you taxed us into the ground”
Nancy responded with “Everyone else pays their taxes why can’t you?” Then she proceed to suggest a 90% tax on any money she would give them.
