It
is an absolute fact that no matter which of the two major parties in
Washington, D.C., is in power, the freedoms and liberties of the American
people continue to be eroded. However, this does NOT mean that there
are not basic differences between the two parties. The two parties differ
greatly on HOW government will take our liberties. Where they are similar
is in the fact that neither of them has any interest in preserving liberty.
Until the American people awaken to this reality, whatever freedoms
we have left in this country are doomed.
Let
me ask you a question: does it really matter whether a free man is enslaved
by a socialist state or a fascist state? Are the prisons any more accommodating?
Are the lashes from the whip any less painful? Is the agony of losing
a loved one any less grievous? Is the persecution any less revolting?
What difference does it make to a free man if his liberties are stolen
by an Adolf Hitler or by a Joseph Stalin?
Do
you want a quick reference to the difference between how the Democrats
and Republicans in Washington, D.C., are stealing our liberties? When
the Democrats control things, America gets more socialism; when the
Republicans control things, America gets more corporatism, which is
a polite word for fascism. Socialism requires government to own everything,
while fascism requires government to control everything. And remember,
too, fascists and socialists have always hated each other. Big deal!
Fascists and socialists alike hate freedomists, which is why inside-the-beltway
Repubs and Dems can’t stand people like Ron Paul, Bob Barr, and
yours truly. (Remember the MIAC report identifying the three of us,
and our supporters, as being potential “dangerous militia”
members?) So who cares which of these two parties happens to be in power?
Our freedoms continue to be under siege. That’s why the battle
in Washington politics has nothing to do with preserving freedom, but
everything to do with HOW government will take freedom. Will they take
it by ownership or by control? And, unfortunately, what we have right
now is the worst of both worlds: government is using a combination of
both ownership and control to steal our liberties. Why? Because except
for a very precious few elected civil magistrates (like Congressman
Ron Paul), there is no one on Capitol Hill or the White House who remotely
understands--or fights for--the principles of liberty.
