| My beginnings as a farmboy in Wisconsin included attending the small rural
Evangelical church -- never understood much of that. At age 18 while over in
Korea I ditched all that, and could not accept anything mystical or altruistic
or irrational. Each individual man is his own god and must therefore depend only
upon his own rationality in order to survive, produce, prosper and realize
happiness and satisfaction with his own life. Because collectivism, altruism,
socialism, etc, always involve turning one's life over to others, all are
immoral. This is the philosophy of Ayn Rand, author of 'Atlas Shrugged',
'Fountainhead' and several other books. I might have written the same, although
not as well as she. A parallel to the above is libertarian, having the basic premise that man has
the right to life, and that right-to-life necessarily includes the right to
sustain that life as he sees best -- only he, not anyone else. Further than man
properly has all rights, but only to the extent that he may not intrude upon the
same rights of any other man. While I did help form the Libertarian Party back
in Arizona, I gave up on politics long ago. More recently it occurs to me that
democracy, which holds that everyone must be subject to the whims of the
majority, is irrational and negates the sanctity of mankind. That 'majority' is
merely other men no more intelligent that you and I, but democracy serves to
turn the rightful decisions of men over to a government which then is empowered
to make and enforce it's whims upon it's people. Those whims include socialism,
war, limitations on free enterprise and capitalism, on and on and on.
All this insanity, the refutation of the individual mind and rationality, has
led our USA (and the world) to a state of imminent economic collapse. Our
currency is becoming worthless -- higher prices are not the result of more
value, they are the result of our falling dollar, which we've seen e.g. gas at
25 cents is now gas at 3 dollars, such across the board! Energy and therefore
food will become many times more expensive while a bankrupt government cannot
print enough money to pay our Social Security. We could write whole books about
all the effects! This collapse will clearly wipe out the USA & constitution as
we know it, and perhaps the entire world with us. Starvation will kill at least
half the people on this earth, and their struggle for survival will probably
result in WW3. If any idiot dictator (could be GWB) decides to start tossing
a-bombs, it could be "yuk yuk, that's all, folks!.
We the people need to seize control of our own individual lives. I cannot
accept that killing is moral except in self-defense, thus revolution is immoral
-- it couldn't work anyway. If we are to have any hope of survival and regaining
our freedoms lost mostly since FDR, we must withdraw our support for this
corrupt 'social system'. How? Stop paying taxes, stop the money which is stolen
from us to support the have-nots and the users, the war machine, martial law,
the aliens, Israel, Halliburton, and thousands of other immoral and corrupt
ideas. The system is bankrupt anyway, but this could help us restart sooner.
Assuming we somehow survive these next few years, we have a ton of work ahead
to replace this crazy system and return us to the path of rationality and
freedom. Our Blogger section is here to help get us on the path, come join
us!
