QUOTES OF THE DAY

“Liberty is never fully paid off, and to be deserving of it, one must be willing to fight for it on the battlefield, in the halls of Congress, by involving yourselves in your communities. Such a struggle is not a burden, it is a privilege.” ~ Dana Loesch

“The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.” ~ Ayn Rand

“But let me offer you my definition of social justice: I keep what I earn and you keep what you earn. Do you disagree? Well then tell me how much of what I earn belongs to you – and why?” ~ Walter E. Williams

“There is no worse tyranny than to force a man to pay for what he does not want merely because you think it would be good for him.” ~ Robert Heinlin

“A man’s natural rights are his own, against the whole world; and any infringement of them is equally a crime; whether committed by one man, or by millions; whether committed by one man, calling himself a robber, or by millions calling themselves a government.”
― Lysander Spooner, No Treason: The Constitution of No Authority

“If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.” ― John Stuart Mill, On Liberty

“They” don’t have the ability to get you if they are few and you are many, Little Man. Stop serving those who wish to rule you. The many are always to blame for their own subjection by a very few:

Overthrowing the State

It’s over when the multitudes stop being codependent with the scum at the top: “Resolve to serve no more, and you are at once freed. I do not ask that you place hands upon the tyrant to topple him over, but simply that you support him no longer; then you will behold him, like a great Colossus whose pedestal has been pulled away, fall of his own weight and break in pieces.” ~ Étienne de La Boétie

Too many would not be able to understand the implications of that quote or be willing to do the hard work it entails.
