We probably can’t expect much from any state, now. There are not enough people in America to make a difference. Not enough of them willing to make a sacrifice; to organize; to go galt and starve the beast they claim to loathe.

The men who threw the original Tea Party would rather have sat down at the local tavern and drunk that tea. But something mattered more to them.

Today we have fatted, complacent, cowering sheep, not citizens. Directive 10-289 will never be necessary, because there will never be enough people to deprive the government of revenue by legal means (galting), never mind illegal means (tax evasion). The threat doesn’t exist, so the law will never come about.

I have nothing but contempt for people who grumble about their lost liberty, then turn around and cough up whatever revenue is demanded by the government, when they don’t even have to break a law to live in accordance with their professed convictions.

And the place where most Americans were mentally, morally, and politically neutered wasn’t Mass. or Texas. It was, it is, in the school.
