Prediction: Some time in the next couple of years, Barack Obama will enact some kind of draconian gun control law. For some strange reason, Gun violence won't decrease, so the response will be even more gun control. Gun violence will take a slight uptick. More and more people then demand even stricter gun control so then some opportunist polititian will come out and Declare a War on Guns. During this War on Guns, many people will be thrown in jail for mere Gun posession. Many non-violent offenders will have their lives ruined by mandatory minimums for gun posession. Many states who have legalized gun posession will have their state sovereignty infringed upon as gun dispenaries that are legal under state law, are raided by Federal Agents.

Democrats are now the Oppressors and Republicans, the Oppressed. You know, I read some diaries sometimes about how kossacks genuinely feel that republicans are a threat so they perpetuate this fearmongering about these right-wing radical terrorist groups (sound familiar?) are a threat to Homeland Security. Then I read these kinds of articles and think, gee, why wouldn't they be concerned about their liberty?

I would like everyone here to see this video of Baptist Pastor Will Grigg describe how he was beaten by Border Patrol agents on the border of California and Arizona.

When a government decides to spend money, there are essentially three ways it can get the money it spends.

First it can tax people. This is the fairest and most honest way to generate revenue for the government because the cost of all its programs are directly accounted for and paid by people who understand how much it costs. However, when the government grows too big, and has too much of a cost, people are likely to rebel against having such a large portion of their wealth taken from them. They'll start throwing tea parties and such. Furthermore, if you subscribe to the idea of The Laffer Curve, charging an exorbitantly high tax rate beyond a point will actually decrease the revenue the government takes in.
