i’m such a fan of “coyote’s law” coined by longtime gatopal™ warren meyer of coyoteblog fame.

i shall paraphrase:

“before granting any new power or prerogative to the state, first imagine that power wielded by the politician you hate most, because one day it will be.”

Yeah dude, this guy tried to cross the Atlantic Ocean — from Florida to England — in what can only be described as a giant hamster wheel of a Hydro Pod.

Let's take a look at this bad boy before we go any further. Here she is in action during one of Reza Baluchi's previous trips (along with some information on the vessel):

Just a thing of beauty, isn't she?

The…vessel is a giant metal drum, with inflatable buoys on each side and paddles that are powered by a runner inside. ...

"Based on the condition of the vessel - which was afloat as a result of wiring and buoys - USCG officers determined Baluchi was conducting a manifestly unsafe voyage," the criminal complaint says…

Baluchi was unable to provide officials with the required registration for his water vehicle and informed officials that he was running in his hamster wheel all the way to London, England.

"Any government big enough to give you everything you want is big enough to take away everything you have"

There is no possibility he would have made it. I think it took about 3 months to cross the Atlantic in the last sailing ships.

I've never been a small government or anti government person.. I have always respected that our government might have programs and departments that services people with specific needs. Who am I to demand that those people not be served those needs, just because I'm not in need or benefiting from them?

But when they intentionally perverse those roles, and put the most vile and disgusting America loathing scumbags in those positions, that gets them all hopped up and drunk on power and brandishes those positions like they are the law and aren't there to serve anyone, but instead to demand the greater public serve THEM. .Then that's when I'm like "Shut the Mother Fucker Down!" All of it, full Ron Paul.

The problem isn't the government, it's the mother fuckers we allow to work in those roles. I say ever position in every government role, should be able to challenged by a very few people who object to their employment.. Nobody should ever feel "Pension" comfortable in a government job. They should all work at the pleasure of those they serve. Get surly and saucy with a few too many and they write you up, get the fuck out! NEXT!

Probably another brush stroke in the attempt to whitewash Newsom so that he can be installed in the White House.

Posted before, but worth repeating.

Wait a second, how would "Americans be helped" if government is minimized?

Bad graphic. The guy receiving the "free stuff" is not the one paying for it.

And by using tax money to pay for mandatory injections.

This one I have to call false on it's premise: name a politician who got booted out because of spending growth.

Correct. The whisper should be "Spend on me, not on he."
