"If men were angels, we wouldn't need government."
-James Madison, The Federalist Papers
We're not angels, so shut your mouths.
Stop with your anarchy rhetoric, really. Stop posting blogs about your
restricted freedoms.
Every man-made institution is inherently flawed. However, the U.S.
government has provided each and every one of us with unlimited opportunities.
I'm sick of people who try to disown America even though they've only ever left
the country by means of high-class ocean liners or pre-packaged family
vacations. You're all talk. I'm tired of people who have never tried living in
another country yet swear that ours is tyrannical. Tyranny is something we have
been weeding out of our institutions since our founding fathers established this
country. Eradicating tyranny is why our nation was even founded in the first
place.
The best part of this "tyranny" is the fact that you can say almost
whatever you want about it without being penalized
or exiled
or tortured
or hanged.
That doesn't sound really tyrannical or oppressive to me. I mean, there
is always room for improvement, but overall, we have it pretty easy over here.
Try living in Russia! Try China! Try Cuba!
If you want to leave so badly, I invite you to. I fact, we all invite
you to! Leave your mini-palaces in Weston and Coral Springs! Leave the
heavily-oppressed Ft. Lauderdale! Go! Get out of Plantation Acres before the
overseers have time to catch you! People die trying to get here, so I don't see
what you're waiting for. Make room for someone else!
You may argue that you're poor. You may argue for the homeless. If
you're reading this, chances are you aren't homeless. Chances are you have no
idea how much worse the homeless have it in other countries. This applies to all
of you.
In reality, you're sitting at home in a lovely suburb. You've probably
been wronged more by your peers than by the government. You have basic rights
REGARDLESS of race or gender. You have used an institution directly supported by
local, state, and/or national governments. You don't support your visions of an
ideal anarchy because you contribute to the economy in going to the talent farm,
and seeing a movie, and eating out, and buying cigarettes, and buying condoms,
buying anything! You have a camera to take your little myspace pics. You go/have
gone to school regardless of your gender. You have food to eat when you come
home. You have a home to begin with!
You wine and complain, but at the end of the day, you get the luxury of
lying in bed, thinking of all your fruity, petty problems.
Whatever, though. Tell me if I'm wrong. Reject what I say and give me a
good argument. I'm daring you to convince me that anarchy is the answer and that
we live under an oppressive regime, because you won't be able to.
