Untitled #7723
_____
You are the voice inside my head.
A silent counterpart on my journey
Keeping me company where I tread
Dispelling all my fears and worries
_____
Tell me not of tragic woes.
I want to share your joys
Speak to me of highs, not lows
We'll rise above the maddening noise.
_____
The future comes on unflighted wing.
No faster than today,
Let us live, our hearts will sing
And greet the coming day.

Libertarians: don't tread on me. Also Libertarians: work for me for slave wages or die. Isn't that treading on people?

“To be governed is to be watched over, inspected, spied on, directed, legislated at, regulated, docketed, indoctrinated, preached at, controlled, assessed, weighed, censored, ordered about, by men who have neither the right, nor the knowledge, nor the virtue. ... To be governed is to be at every operation, at every transaction, noted, registered, enrolled, taxed, stamped, measured, numbered, assessed, licensed, authorized, admonished, forbidden, reformed, corrected, punished. It is, under the pretext of public utility, and in the name of the general interest, to be placed under contribution, trained, ransomed, exploited, monopolized, extorted, squeezed, mystified, robbed; then, at the slightest resistance, the first word of complaint, to be repressed, fined, despised, harassed, tracked, abused, clubbed, disarmed, choked, imprisoned, judged, condemned, shot, deported, sacrificed, sold, betrayed; and, to crown all, mocked, ridiculed, outraged, dishonoured. That is government; that is its justice; that is its morality.” - Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, ‘The General Idea of the Revolution in the Nineteenth Century’ (1851)
“What decides rank is the quantum of power that you are; the rest is cowardice.” - Friedrich Nietzsche, ‘Writings from the Late Notebooks’ [Notebook 11, November 1887 - March 1888] (2003)
