You can and you can't - - -

You get to have an opinion, you don't get to force it on anyone else. --L. Reichard White.

R2D2 OR TERMINATOR 2?

"R2D2 OR TERMINATOR 2?" --L. Reichard White.

It's THE LAW - - -

* Kamin's 4th Law: Governments will grow until destroyed by war or revolution. 

* Mangrum's Corollary: If not destroyed by war or revolution, governments will continue to grow until they crush the population which supports them. as related to me by Harry Mangrum .

No, you can't do that!

"You can't impose "order," it evolves. When you mess it up, it has to evolve all over again." --L. Reichard White, Thursday, May 01, 2014

The legislature vs. your life, liberty & property.

"No man's life, liberty or property are safe while the legislature is in session." --NY Surrogate Judge Gideon J. Tucker, 1866

Trouncing Rube - - -

The idiots have created a health care contraption that makes Rube Goldberg look like a Swiss watchmaker. --L. Reichard White, October 6, 2013, 07:30:58

Who dunnit?

Remember folks, when the stuff hits the fan, it wasn't your friends, neighbors, family or other citizens that caused the problems, it was The Government. --L. Reichard White, Monday, September 30, 2013 5:15 AM

What is "National Security?"

"A specious concept that allows a government to introduce and enforce a continuous series of ever increasingly totalitarian diktats in order to erode personal freedoms under the guise of an 'outside' threat." --Darren 'BigD' Groves

Temporarily limited

Temporarily limited government is better than when it inevitably becomes unlimited - - - --L. Reichard White, Tuesday, September 10, 2013 8:21 PM

Nothing to hide?

"IF one has nothing to hide ... THEN one has nothing to fear ... so why is the NSA in such a panic?" --aletheia

Uplifting?

OK, I can't take these lying, hypocritical military-industrial-congressional-media complex talking heads any more. Going to switch to something highly ethical, real, and uplifting by comparison instead: Just changed channels to Jerry Springer - - -  --L. Reichard White, Monday, August 26, 2013 4:45 PM

Is government your friend?

Government has no friends only slaves. --Jon Smith

"Unfettered Capitalism" - - -

"Unfettered Capitalism" = protected from competition -- usually by "regulation" -- (and/or subsidy) by a government. Otherwise "capitalists" are seriously fettered by "we the customers." Which is why the capitalists engineer protection -- usually by regulation -- (and/or subsidies) from a government.  --L. Reichard White, Saturday, July 20, 2013 10:54 AM

P.S. This is the ultimate result of what, when applied to bank bailouts, is called "moral hazard" as businesses learn how to get governments to underwrite their operations -- using taxpayers' money. 

Where Chaos Comes From

Chaos doesn't come from folks with many different ideas, it comes when someone tries to impose one of those ideas on everyone.  --L. Reichard White, Friday, July 05, 2013 11:31 AM

Seriously twisted priorities - - -

When someone points out a robber, murderer or Peeping Tom, do you go after the robber, murderer or Peeping Tom -- or do you go after the person who points them out? 

So why is Uncle Sam going after Mr. Snowden instead of going after the FBI, CIA and NSA? 

It's NOT us.

Always remember, The U.S. is NOT us. --L. Reichard White, Tuesday, June 25, 2013 5:17 AM

A little help please - - -

I heard yesterday that "There are some questions one just doesn't ask."  What are they so I can ask them?  --L. Reichard White, Sunday, June 16, 2013 2:48 PM

What do you have to hide?

The correct answer when asked "What do you have to hide?" is, "I don't know, but with all the laws on the books, I'm sure there must be quite a few things." --L. Reichard White, June 15, 2013, 08:26:20

Time for Plan B?

The Constitution & Bill of Rights applies only to and limits government, those who are elected and swear an oath to uphold them, and those they hire to help them to do that job.  Unfortunately, we-the-people trusted those documents, the oaths, and the honesty of politicians to abide by those limits.  Clearly, that didn't work. -L. Reichard White, June 12, 2013, 13:20:27

Do you support slave owners?

"To presume to have the authority to remove another's inherent right to self-determination is the assumption of the slave owner." --Dr. Amanda Kim Case, June 3, 2013
