This Holiday Season Give the Gift of Freedom!
by Donna Mancini

 I am sick and tired of the  NANNY STATE!!

 I believe  We the  individuals would be much wealthier, happier,  more peaceful( read  non-violent)  if  we  were allowed to  keep our own money and run our  own lives,  instead of  the  Big  Govt Bureaucracy   that  forces us   to relinquish control of  our  life, liberty and property to the  arbitrary whims  of Lawmakers,  tyrantical majorities and Bureaucrats! Where did this  idea come from that  Individuals "are the government"  and thus the  Property of Elected officials,  merely because  we  get to  "vote" for so called " representatives"?

As Free Human Beings, we own ourselves and should be able to " do our own  Thing with our own stuff " as long as we do so  peacefully and   honestly .    The State's ONLY legitimate function is to secure  the INDIVIDUAL’S  natural rights to life, liberty and property; aka   protect us from  JERKS who use force and fraud............  and then get out of our way so  so we can live our lives to the Max!

 Personally . I believe in Life Before Death. 

 So many people I talk to think  laws and rules make a peaceful  "orderly"  society. 

   The truth is quite the opposite:

 Voluntary and informed exchanges, which benefit both parties, make a peaceful, productive and orderly society ! Laws and rules should not be confused with  right and wrong,  or good and bad...

 Laws and rules, 99.9%   of which are politically motivated  and   purely  arbitrary do nothing more than expand the power and control  of the  Master( government) over his slaves( you and Me),  which means more ways to confiscate our  property, and more reasons to  punish us physically , whether it be locking us up ,beating or killing us.  

 Each and Every Day it gets worse. More and more people appear to subscribe to the  philosophy " there ought to be a law" for  every aspect of  human life.

 Is the   Mass  Man or Woman  in America really so   ignorant that they do not  Understand that the freedom to choose  and be responsible  for oneself, and the fact that all  actions have consequences  is   reality and  what makes  life worth living.?

 Also,  I never could understand how any human  being would want to tell another person how  they should live their life.  How the hell do I know how you should live your life? I have enough trouble trying to figure out how to live my own life!!  If everyone would work on himself, take care of his  own, and help his friends and neighbors in their communities,  we would all be better people, and we could take care of the less fortunate among us.

 Selfishness  TRULY  is forcing your beliefs and  values down other peoples throat, to paraphrase Oscar Wilde...

   This Christmas, Holiday Season,  Pagan Winter Solstice,  Year End, "Whatever" ,  Give the GIFT that keeps on Giving........ The only Gift that  Matters in Life...... Give  the Freedom to  Choose to yourself and your fellow man..... 

 Freedom Works!

 Peace and Love,

 Donna Mancini
