The Nanny State

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." 

 C.S. Lewis

I have reached the point that I no longer have any interest in living with a boot on my throat or being jerked around by petty bureaucrats I have always been willing to leave the busybodies alone if they are willing to leave me alone. It has become clear that that is not likely an option.

The  attempts to control every aspect of our lives by elected officials, bureaucrats and creepy little busybodies show no signs of slowing down. If you think it is bad now, just wait until they have taken over even more sectors of our lives and economies and have a stronger claim on our behaviors. These people seem to know no boundaries, no limits. Just as in nearly every meddling bureaucracy, the day will never come that these parasites will dust of their hands and declare “My job here is done.” Unless we put a stop to it, they will ALWAYS look to expand their missions and expand their agencies thereby increasing their presence and power until voters not only accept their existence, but wonder how they ever survived without them.

This mindset is creeping into our society and a sickening rate. Every day I see otherwise intelligent people that are willing to surrender liberties and property in the insane belief that they will enjoy more safety or security from their government.

Enabling these clowns to dictate what you can eat or smoke, when and where, how much you should weigh, when you can light your fireplace (if at all), what kind of light bulbs are best for you, or how much water you toilet or showerhead can use will only encourage more of this kind of behavior. They will NEVER voluntarily quit. Ever.

The government does NOT love you. Bank on it.

 My offer to government punks always stands; get your hands off my liberty and my property and I, in turn, will leave you alone.
