You know what I miss, fellow freethinkers? Having money and being able to get more, no matter where I went. Back before 1980, when Ronald Reagan and Capitalism finally told the government to back off, because the big boys were playing now! Which was good, because there was a lot more money being thrown around, and the last thing Americans need is a government telling them where money should go! A bank would give you money because you had a twinkle in your eye and just-so-happened to pass the paper bag test! Nowadays, a bank won’t even let you in the door without demanding a credit score and a pint of Christian blood!
Folks, I’m just a simple man with zero experience in history or economics. I like my taxes low, my infrastructure private, and my states with the rights I explicitly approve of: the very idea that the ultra-rich patriots who funded and maintained all that infrastructure from the Pre-Reagan years did so because of the law and not their own good Christian hearts is ridiculous! From what I know to be true from my brief reading of a pamphlet at a libertarian gun rally, they paid their fair share, completely and willingly; it had nothing to do with a government that actually governed and enforced tax laws! The rich don’t want to pay their taxes for a country that doesn’t bend, scrape, and worship the dirt under their toenails, and why SHOULD they? As a proud patriot, I hate anyone who doesn’t appreciate the nobility!
I may not have a fancy degree in any of the subjects I’m an expert in, I went to a little place called the “School of Hard Knox,” an unaccredited university that took my money and ran. And anyone smart enough to scam me deserves my money. And my boss has repeatedly assured me that I’m too smart to need a union or workers’ rights because of how essential I am. So essential that he doesn’t have to give me any job security or advancement in writing, but is happy to talk about it as much as I like to hear about it! And since I got all of my legal learning from docu-series like Law & Order and Suits, I know that constitutes a verbal contract! Even though I could never afford to hire a lawyer to prove such. Anyway, if I ever need to give up my job so my boss can have a few more bucks, I’ll do it. I could always just get some paper-pushing, cushy government job.
