I am quite self-reliant. My MAIN trust is in God.
You are correct in that we have far too many laws, some of which are ridiculous. This does not mean that ALL laws are ridiculous. I trust in God, my good (and defensive) driving skills and I LIKE a law against texting...because it WILL reduce my chances of having to deal with an inattentive idiot behind the wheel.
That does NOT make me a socialist....not by a long shot.
You said: “You people are against freedom .” (sic)
NO, we are for common sense. Your generalization is illogical.
You people have no idea what this struggle is about.
This is a struggle between collectivism and individual freedom.
On the one had you have the government and on the other an individual . Is it a wonder we have 2 parties? and other countries do too.
The socialists statists always come up with some “perfect” sounding justification to take more of our freedoms. Do you not see their goal? It is to make us slaves , to empower the government.
It is their ( the statists/socialists) goal to tilt the balance even more to the government. what chance do we have if a city hall , an IRS decides to target us? an individual is small already and you want to empower government and government idiots more? every week there are more laws and regulations at all levels of government and you don't see this as a problem yet texters are? See the government and the media ( the democrats) pit us against other Americans be it the rich ( their original threat) then it's textters or whatever , there will be another manufactured threat next week etc.
Let's take the example of crime ok? I can as a thinking individual can use the freeedom remaining in the free market to make myself safe by buying guns, fences, security alarms , carrying a gun etc. as our freedom goes as they will take our guns then how will we protect ourselves ?
So let's take the great threat of texters: ok what if I drive more carefully or less or get a safer car , or learn about defensive driving ? no you would have the government protect you from texters and that would give you a FALSE sense of security ( as the many who didn't carry a gun and got tortured raped and murdered by criminals did) and you wouldn't drive more carefully . look this is just of the top of my head and I'm sure you will ridicule me for grammer etc. but I am very busy and writing fast.
