Finally, a Hollywood Left Dem Speaks Out Against Prez Obama Amplifying Bush War, Imprisonment Policies

Kudos to John Cusack. Now all he has to do is apply his Constitutional standards and belief in civil liberties to the facts that the Constitution also doesn't sanction things like "welfare" spending, business regulation, invasion of medical records, antitrust, bailouts, money monopolies (ie, the Fed and treasury, a duopoly), school loans, science research, "social securit" (which is neither), the so-called "war on drugs" or international aid, to name a few...

British Proposal to Tax the Net Worth of So-Called Rich

A. How does one define "rich".

B. Nick Clegg says that this will introduce "fairness" to the tax system. How does he define for others what is "fair"?

C. He claims that this tax will avoid "social unrest". When do nations see more social unrest? During periods of high unemployment. Who are the ones with leveragable money to start businesses? Yeah, the "rich"...

D. Who has shown, by the very act of being able to consistently (in most cases) sell products or services that made them rich, that they have already helped people? Yeah, the "rich".

 

This is a very, very bad proposal. Immoral and anti-economic.

Greg Greenwald on US Targeting Drones on Pakistani Rescuers

Evidently, as long as the US engages in terrorist activities, they're not "really" terrorist activities?

Good for Greewald to write about this.

A Very Good Piece on the Tsunami of Waiting, Expenses and Limits Coming Due to Med Fascism Law

The laws of economics, of supply and demand, of political force, cannot be avoided. Read this piece, from Mr. Goodman, who is often published by the excellent Independence Institute, and remember his warnings a few years from now!

Romney Pick of Ryan Really Illustrates How Disconnected GOP Is From Liberty and Memory

So the pop media and GOP big-wigs are both saying that Congressguy Paul Ryan is a "staunch" conservative. Even the Dems are flailing about, saying he's "radically" anti-spending.

If that's the case, why did he vote with the Bushies 94% of the time? Why did he support the unconstitutional, immoral, and economically insane Medicare Part D plan that Congress passed at 5:40 on a Saturday morning? If he's a real strong small gument "constitutionalist", then why the HECK did he vote to give Bush the unconstitutional "permission to use military force" everyone tells us is now the "War" on "Terror"?

Economic Data Doesn't Look Good for the US - 70 Data Points to See

This comes from a site that might or might not be completely aligned with the ideas of total freedom, but some of the stats and references are very valuable, especially when one compares the information to the cheerleading from the pop media news folks.

US House and Senate Evicerate the Advice and Consent Requirement for Executive Appointments

This is incredible. Such a bold, in-your-face move that one can almost not believe they did it.

This story comes from the JBS, which isn't in line with a number of libertarian principles, but the story itself is important.

VT Cops Get a Bit of Blowback for Their Aggression Against a Plant Grower

This is a wonderful story. A farmer who has been attacked by the state for growing marijuana has allegedly taken his tractor and rolled over eleven of the empty police cruisers.

Aggression by the state sees blow-back. Unfortunately, given the acceptance of the tax system by so many people, and given the fact that so many people accept the myth that police protect them (it has been proven false statistically and legally), the cruisers will likely be replaced at the expense of more taxpayer cash.

But this is pretty cool.

After Five Years, People Finally Begin to Notice That Scalia Does Not Care About Rights

Those Principled Republicans and the Medical Fascism Law

So one of the Romney advisors (ya know, an advisor for the guy who brought in his own anti-constitutional fascist mandates on the health insurance industry in MA) is making cash advising state gubments on how to conform to the federal medical fascism law. Anyone actually bothered to look at the Constitution and see that the interstate commerce clause doesn't give the feds the power to tell insurance companies what to sell, nor does it give MA the power to do the same or to force people to buy said manipulated insurance plans. Welcome to real fascism. Welcome to the United States "two-party" system... Choose your poison.

IRS ReWrites Fed Medical Fascism Law to Counter States That Are Not Implementing

As these state gubments push back and don't implement the law, the IRS re-writes the text to make it apply, to levy the fines (sorry, the "tax"), and expand the fascist nature of this law.
