The myth of "individual liberty" and "free markets."

::::::::

“Oh man, the bullshit piled up so fast in Vietnam, you needed wings to stay above it."
Captain Willard- Apocalypse Now


The bullshit is piling up so fast in the dying USAon empire, you need anti-gravity to stay out of it. If you haven’t been following the latest (1/7/08) Sibel Edmonds story, Justin Raimondo can wrap it up for you . “We’re in big trouble,” writes Raimondo, “if even half of what Sibel Edmonds says is true.” Really—there’s lots of it piling up… a crap tsunami. The warning signs appeared years ago… the anthrax attack, the “dancing Israelis" and “for us or against us.”

 

It’s all wrapped up with Peak Oil, the climate, and “9-11 Truth.” Scary stuff you betcha, but not nearly as horrifying as the young “libertarians” who have the answer to everything: “Support Ron Paul!” There’s no point in telling them that “elections” are a fraud, their “Republic” is gone and those levers are not connected to anything. They don’t “believe” it. I suppose it’s because they are young… or hopelessly naïve as Ron Paul is.

 

The Truth, kids, does not care if you “believe” it or not. It is what it is. It stands in the graveyard of your Christmas Future and points a bony finger toward your epitaph… and here is what is written on that cold stone: “You have NO IDEA who you are dealing with.” And who might that be, the “global elite” perhaps? They will stop at nothing. They have no souls, they have no conscience. They will not hesitate commit theft, murder, genocide… even omnicide to be “competitive.” The horrible truth is: THEY are YOU.

 

“They” did not begin life as lying thieving murdering psychopaths. For whatever reason, they grew into “social dominators,” believing that "Winning is more important than how you play the game." In a culture like the U.S., where “competition” has evolved into a commodity fetish, they will claim the supremacy of “individualism.” In a Stalinist or Maoist culture, they would just as easily claim their actions are for the good of the “collective.” Whatever works… for them.

Ron Paul is a good man who, like many whom he represents, may sincerely believe the U.S. “political system” is at best flawed but workable, at worst broken but repairable. The Truth is, what is called “government” has as much to do with running what is called the “USA” as your Student Government had to do with running your high school. A “president” who decides to “return to the Constitution” is like the student body president deciding to audit the Police Department. Does that sound “defeatist?” Read the stone again: “You have NO IDEA who you are dealing with.”

 

Whoever “they” are, they have committed crimes against peace, humanity and the entire ecosphere to stuff themselves while the planet starves. They would incinerate you and your whole town alive as easily as they would fart through silk. Ask the citizens of Fallujah. So, why not help them out by yammering about “lower taxes,” “less government” and their favorite: “free-market competition?” They’re bringing an A-bomb to an axe fight, so naturally they think “competition” is swell. What’s in your wallet?

 

“Voting” and “elections” are like the steering wheel on Maggie Simpson’s car seat. So what… armed rebellion? “They” already thought of that, kid, and if you think “theyare “the government,” you still don’t get it and neither does Ron Paul. We have to invent a new way to dodge the psychopaths, and it isn’t “voting” for Ron Paul or even Dennis Kucinich, god-love-‘im. Paul/ Kucinich each speak of reform, but the “political system” (a collective, by the way) isn’t broken… it’s gone. You’re “voting” for the Prom Queen. Deal with it. Otherwise, where do we go but nowhere?

 

Since deregulation and reducing oversight have worked out so well, Dr. Paul says you can take care of yourself and you don’t need any commie-pinko welfare-nanny-state collectivism to go head-on with General Dynamics and Lockheed Martin. So go for it, young “libertarian.” Your Ayn-Rand Objective is to draw a “for us or against us” line in the sand between individualism and collectivism. It has to be either-or, doesn’t it, so toss away that other oar and row in circles. So go ahead and “create your own reality.” While you’re at it, you may as well drive a stake through your own heart.

 

Do it while you still have a heart. You no longer have a country.
