The Lie of 'Equality'

The Founding Fathers were businessmen. They came from many walks of life, in fact several were clergy; but they were particularly focused on freedom for three primary reasons. Freedom to worship as one chooses, freedom to raise your family as you see fit and freedom to engage in commerce for your own personal gain. That's right, those greedy bastards actually wanted to keep the fruits of their labor for their own family. However, they understood that in doing so they would create a society that would be healthy, happy and prosperous. Such a society would be much more capable and willing of helping those who were truly in need within their communities. They were brilliant in their simplicity. Our system of government, as the nation was founded, is the most successful in the history of mankind. It's not even close.

One may wish to point out our relatively young age, and that only time will tell. After all the Romans and Chinese managed to rule for hundreds or even thousands of years, so might not one call them more successful? Not at all. As always it depends on your definition of success. If only continuity of society is the goal, then the Chinese win hands down. If conquering of peoples and acquisition of land is the goal, then hat tip to Alexander the Great and Genghis Khan. But ours is a higher calling. Ours is a society of freedom for the common individual to have the opportunity to advance beyond the circumstances of their birth. No other nation in the history of Mankind has allowed it's citizens, yes even slaves, to rise out of their despairing situation and rise to unlimited heights.

What, you may ask, is the key to this success? What is the singular thing that is most responsible for our prosperity? All things life are complicated, but sometimes it is useful to focus in closely and isolate just one thing that may be merited for overall success. In our society that one thing is private property. It is so important that the Founders felt obliged to include the protection of intellectual property within the Constitution itself; Article I, Section 8, paragraph 8. Protection of private property was again buttressed in Amendment XIV, paragraph 1. The ability to labor, invent, write or otherwise produce something of value; then trade, barter or sale this product and keep the earnings for oneself; accumulate such earnings through thrift and saving and thereby achieve a level of success in proportion to ones effort and talent is the engine of prosperity and the avenue of liberation for all the Peoples of America.

Now, what one thing above all else do you suppose that Marxist/Socialists work tirelessly to destroy? That's correct, the right of private property. Indeed the very right to individuality.

The greatest crime of the last century has been the cloaking of the communist goal of destroying individual wealth, the very mechanism for Man to rise out of poverty and excel, in the emotional and spurious shroud of compassion for the lower classes or non-white races. In fact it is the communists who continually remind us of classes and race. It is the American Patriot who truly wants equality for all. Equality of opportunity. In fact if not for communists, racial and class division would be almost non-existent in modern America. Not one conservative cared about Clarence Thomas' race. But the Marxist cared deeply. A Black conservative could not be allowed to supersede the false mantra of class and racial inequality. No Black could be allowed to be seen as successful on his own merits, free of government. So they attacked him viciously.

If you believe in a progressive tax rate then you believe in communism. You agree with the confiscation of private property for the benefit of the collective above the individual. If you believe in Affirmative action you believe in communism. You believe in class warfare and racial division. If you believe in government entitlements then you believe in social engineering, slavery, redistribution of capital and control of the people by the powerful in government. If you believe in crony capitalism then you arm the communists with the impetus for Marxist destruction of private property and individual achievement, yeah even prosperity itself. Corporations are evil only when protected by the government. Unions are evil only when corrupted by government mandates for 'closed shops' or government regulations stifling business owners choice and freedom of association. The rich can only continue to be evil if protected from the protestations of the public by government power and force. In all cases the so-called evils of free-market capitalism are in fact evils of government interference and unholy alliance with worker or business.

The solution to all modern problems in America today are simple. That's right simple. Return to a government of enumerated powers. Strip government of the power to protect large business from bankruptcy or suffering the anger of the public it serves. Stop government from colluding with unions to diminish the individual rights of business owners. Cease all government regulation of business beyond that required to ensure free commerce between the Several States. Enforce law, long existing that prevents fraud, deception and embezzlement in banking and business. Return to the Constitutional intent and protect the private property of all citizens. Treat all people equal, even in taxation by instituting a flat tax with zero deductions for anyone ever. That is the definition of fair. Every dollar earned in America gets taxed at one rate without exception. Protect the intellectual property of all citizens for a period of time to allow them to benefit from their talent. Stop all mention of race, class or religion except in such case where medical necessity or pursuit of law enforcement requires it. Get the federal government out of education altogether. The federal courts must ensure equal access to education by all, but that is the only area that the federal government has the power to intervene. The federal government should protect our nation's border and international interests, facilitate the building and maintenance of infrastructure, keep commerce between the States free of tariffs or boycott, engage friendly nations in commerce and treaty and protect the inalienable rights of the People. Period. That's it, no more. Prison for treason for anyone who attempts otherwise!

Do this, and this nation will again rise to heights unimagined. Future generations will be free to pursue their own wealth and comfort unencumbered by the stifling yoke of government interference. Do this, and Marxist ideology will be destined for the trash heap of history to which it belongs, naught more than an educational tool to teach children the evil of good intentions based upon erroneous emotional desires for Utopian 'heaven' on earth.

Look around you. Look within. Marxist ideology is a virus that has infected the Liberty of the American way of life. It is high time to isolate and destroy it. We must then inoculate our youth with the truth of freedom and inculcate them with the lie of communism, constantly for eternity. They will not go away of free will. The lie of 'equality' as opposed to equal opportunity will always be the nectar for the swarm of disillusioned and ill-informed, depressed by their own inadequate pursuit of excellence.

Marco Rubio: Friend or Foe?

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The most important issue of our time is whether or not this nation will continue to be run as a constitutional republic. For this to be the case the People must have a reverence and respect for the U.S. Constitution as the law of the land. Yes, there will be times when the SCOTUS will rule in a way abhorrent to the Constitution, but if the People maintain their love and respect for it, they will elect leaders who will take on the courts and restore our constitutional rights. A growing trend in these times seems to be a complete disregard for the Constitution except in cases where it fits your agenda. This is a dangerous game that will always end in tyranny.

For the umpteenth time: Marco Rubio is ineligible to be President or Vice President of the United States of America according to the U.S. Constitution. Mr. Rubio is not a natural born citizen as defined by the SCOTUS in Minor v. Happersett. If we allow the GOP to continue to submit this man as a candidate for this office then we have no right whatsoever to criticize Barrack Hussein Obama for being himself ineligible for this office, which is an indisputable fact.

If Marco Rubio continues to bask in the limelight and will not address this issue then what we now know about him is that he is not who he pretends to be. He is in fact just another politician who will say anything, do anything and step on the U.S. Constitution if it furthers his own ambition and goals. The only thing worse than a snake is a snake that is camouflaged to look friendly when in fact it is poisonous. A politician who would subvert the Constitution for their own personal career ambition is poisonous.

How many T.E.A. party people do you see out there daily touting Marco Rubio for Vice President? It is indeed an indictment for just how far lost this nation is that the very crowd who takes to the streets waving the flag and the Constitution around, demanding that their leaders respect the Constitution; are themselves ignorant of that very document. How sad for America. How embarassing for the Patriot movement.

We don't get to pick and choose the moments that we adhere to the law of the land. We must follow it at all times, even when we find it difficult or an obstacle to our particular goals. The Founders put the eligibility clause into the Constitution because they did not ever want a Commander in Chief to have any other loyalties to any other nations but for the United States of America. If Barrack Hussein Obama running all over the world genuflecting in front of dictators and kings is not enough to prove their point then I don't know what it takes beyond utter treason. You cannot have the Rubio without the Obama. It is insufficient to spout that childish lament, "Well, they did it." If you love your country then you must love the document that makes it possible. You must protect and defend that document as if it is your very child, threatened by predators from many directions, even from within. Indeed your children and grandchildren will live under the tyranny you foist upon them by ignoring the Constitution. You cannot ignore one part without diminishing it in totum.

Please read your Constitution. Please read Minor v. Happersett. Please teach your children that sometimes it's hard to do the right thing, but do it you must. Please do not allow yourself to be brought down in the political gutter with your Democrat neighbors. Stand for something bigger than ourselves. Stand for the Constitution. Demand that Marco Rubio remove himself from the speculation for Vice President, loudly and often. If he refuses, then we will know who he really is; just another snake in the grass, lying to the People to promote himself.

UPDATE: I have had several responses from people who did not know or do not believe that Marco Rubio's parents were not citizens at his birth. For that reason I am providing this link:
