"It is unfortunately none too well understood that, just as the State has no money of its own, so it has no power of its own. All the power it has is what society gives it... there is no other source from which State power can be drawn. Therefore every assumption of State power, whether by gift or seizure, leaves society with so much less power; there is never any strengthening of State power without a corresponding and roughly equivalent depletion of social power." ~ Albert Jay Nock

Morals schmorals
"Taxes, I believe, are the lubricant for the machinery of our democracy."
The candidate for Minnesota State House in District 63A.
I prefer to post blog items that are both informative, humorous, and, at times off the beaten path of politics. Even I must admit that life doesn't revolve around politics.
I welcome your opinions and even criticisms in the comment sections of this blog. I will respond to your questions and comments as soon as I can.
Thanks for reading!
