The Declining White Majority

There seems to be a growing concern regarding the declining White majority.  I don’t know if such a decline is the truth or not.  But assuming it is, let me remind you of something:  the main thing with which you should be concerned regarding the state of our country is freedom—not the race of the constituents.

And let me remind you of something else:  the Civil War, the income tax, 17th amendment, and Federal Reserve System, World Wars I & II, Korea and Vietnam, and most of the dramatic incidents that have brought this country to its current condition were not brought about by minorities.

In a free society, the most capable rise to the top, regardless of race, creed or national origin.  A free people will beget free people regardless of their physical characteristics.  Following that paradigm our condition and our country as a whole will improve - regardless of the physical makeup of the populace.

So let’s concentrate on freedom and quit worrying about the race of the patriots involved in the fracas.

Should we invade Syria?

We cannot protect a people from their own government. 

Those people must take responsibility for their situation and deal with it themselves.  They far outnumber their government and certainly have the capacity to change their situation themselves.

"The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress."  (Frederick Douglass, Aug 4, 1857)

Who is Responsible for a County's Economic Growth?

The RCECD proposes to be responsible for economic growth in Racine County.
 
However, they cannot do it, nor can any governmental entity perform such an operation.
 
What a group that took responsibility for a county's growth would do would get every bit of governmental control of economic activity abolished and leave the private sector alone to perform as best it can in the field of business.
 
And if that group were successful, you would see—by today's standards—business miracles performed.

What's the difference between a libertarian and a conservative?

The signature difference between a libertarian and a conservative is that the libertarian deregulates.  The conservative does not like deregulation preferring government control over questionable individual activities to keep us safe and secure.

Which brings up the second difference between the two:  The libertarian is more concerned about your freedom than your life.  To the libertarian one is "better dead that red."  The libertarian would rather die than live as a slave. The libertarian lives Benjamin Franklin's famous admonition regarding giving up liberty to obtain safety.
