Amusing yes, depressing yes… Therefore I ask are we just pawns in a game. A host to a virus that will keep us alive to survive. Do we go about our merry lives content with how things are and vote or not — knowing it doesn’t matter? Or worse voting and thinking that it makes a difference? If I am that absolved to complacency then I might as well live on the isle of Gauntlett, an ecosphere… self-sufficient, self-sustaining, and apart from all. Ron Paul lies it out all out in Revolution: A Manifesto, but as I’ve mentioned people don’t want to listen, and are complacent with being robbed and then blaming it on corporations when the culprits are government officials. I want freedom, personal rights, and property rights with a just law. Without those how can I plan for the future. What incentive do I have to invest if the rules are continually changing? 

If someone continually takes a penny from pocket at an ever increasing rate what motivation do I have to produce pennies or for that matter anything?
