Dr. Who is out.

Dr. No is in. That's right I am voting for Ron Paul. No question in my mind. He is my candidate. I have several reason for this. First Ron Paul political views are in line with mine. He believes in free trade. He is against taxes. He doesn't see it as America's job to police the world. He see the constitution as the governing document of America. Second I feel America needs a radical candidate. We need someone who is out to make change. We need someone who believes limiting the government goes beyond a tax cut. Someone who doesn't believe in 'four year plans.' Change is needed. Hope is needed.

The 'perfect' form of government

There is a saying I used to like. Socialism is the perfect form of government. The problem it only works with perfect people. I have recently decided that this is actually full of crap. Socialism isn't the perfect form of government. It's oppressive and totalitarian no matter what.

Think about it if we had perfect people we wouldn't have a lot of the issues we have today. No one would try to kill each other. No one would steal. no one would lie. There would be no crime, no war, no hate. It would be prefect. Without those issue we really have no need for a government. Police force? Nope. Army? No. Laws? No. Fire department(first we wouldn't make stupid mistakes that start fires, second everyone would help out)? No. We would have no need for government. No need for someone to hold our hand and protect us. Anarchy is in fact the perfect form of government.

Now obviously people aren't perfect. We all make mistakes. People kill. We have war. People rob and lie to each other. However that doesn't make these ideals any less valuable. They have the same amount of worth. Yes we need a government, but need the smallest one possible. Why does the government have the right to decide what is or isn't taught in schools. Why should it be able to regulate what we learn? What gives it the right to decide how fast we should drive? Why does it get to say we have to pay more for foreign goods than domestic ones? Why does it get to tell us what marriage is? The government's job is to protect life, not regulate it. The government's job is to protect liberty, no limit it. The government's job is to administer justice, not abusive it. Yet it fails. The government isn't limited. It isn't controlled. Government needs something to stop it. It needs something to keep it in check. That something is us, the people. it is our job to strive for perfect government, our duty to check and limited it.

Stay Free, Matt.

And yet they wonder

I was just perusing Google News for something to blog about, yes now you know the secret to my success, and came across an article about Justice Clarence Thomas. I clicked on the article and found myself on the LA Times website. This particular article was about Justice Thomas memoirs. I'm using the term article loosely here, it was really more of a diatribe. About half way through this article which is essentially an ad homonin on Justice Thomas it accuses of calling the press biased. Wait for one second, the press isn't biased? Am I in an alternate reality? Did we win Vietnam? Do I have super powers? Honestly, the press is always going to be biased. Get over it.

Now I'd like to touch on why Justice Thomas and the press don't get along. It really has to do with Justice Thomas, the media can't stand anyone who doesn't agree with them. Now if that's person happens to be a African-American this goes through to roof. The Media has made a practice of lying to the public, they don't want us to think. The play up class warfare. They play the race card. Anyone who doesn't agree with them comes under fire, but it's worse for the African-Americans who do so. Justice Thomas, Larry Elder, anyone else who thinks logically comes under the attack of the media.

And yet they wonder why people who disagree with them all them biased. Get a clue.

Stay Free, Matt.
