Or escaping this ball of confusion
by Joe Siano
Call it synchronicity – meaningful coincidence. The Space X manned launch coincided with the
outbreak of the George Floyd justice uprisings.
It is clearly time to cash in and get out.
Folks on the Left as well those in the liberty movement are seeing
the same thing - that the bloated welfare/warfare state is failing. In fact, it has failed America for a solid
century.
Its police fail to protect us. The Supreme Court explicitly affirms that that police
have no
obligation to do so. So, what are
they doing? For starters, we know that
they shoot a good number of innocent and unarmed people. We also know that they cruise around in mini-arsenals,
armed to the teeth with hand-me-down
war toys designed to kill foreign enemies.
That just does not seem right for
a “peace officer”.
We also know that cops confiscate
private property without warrant or court order. If you look fishy to the fuzz, they take your
money, car, boat, whatever on the hunch that you may be a bad guy.
We know that our government does not protect us from
terrorism, in fact they
invite it via foreign meddling. The War
on Terror has only produced harassment while traveling and gross invasions of
privacy. Americans are clearly less
secure.
Our elected and appointed officials have proven them themselves
incapable of protecting us from disease.
Their cure was worse than the malady.
Politicians cynically exploited the COVID threat to score points and
wound opponents. All at our expense.
Nor has the State apparatus made us financially safe. . Continued Fed money pumping and astronomical
budget deficits create bubbles and market crashes. The more dollars we create the less they are
worth. If
foreign nations and investors sense that our money is depreciating, they
will dump dollars leading to accelerated domestic inflation and financial catastrophe.
And just like every other monopoly supplier, government
schools deliver shoddy goods and poor outcomes.
For the most part, only the wealthy can afford to opt out, which they frequently
do.
Which brings to America’s first manned commercial space
launch. It will not be long before the
best, brightest and wealthiest earthlings cast their lot into the great beyond –
far from the grubby hands of governments.
“Go west young man”, exhorted Horace Greely
in another century. Today’s watchword
will be “Go up!”
The earthbound are going Galt in so many ways. Gun sales are
skyrocketing as Americans realize that it up the to protect themselves, hearth
home and family.
People are fleeing
big cities – the citadels of progressivism.
Those staying behind are holding their official’s feet to
the fire.
No image from this past week was funnier that than Minneapolis
Mayor, Jacob Frey, being booed, chased home and forced to take the walk of shame. Frey is another White Weenie prog who
believes that he and his party are God’s Gift to POCs. Wrong!
The chickens are coming home to roost.
An-caps and the Justice Movement demonstrators see many of
the same problems. An-caps have ideas and solutions. I’m not sure that demonstrators do, other than
demanding “justice”.
The one thing that they are seeing is that statism has failed.
Maybe, just maybe, this is the time to listen to fresh ideas. Maybe just, maybe, this is the moment for a New
American Revolution.
