  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

I'm with the poster. I took a 70% pay cut when covid shut down the patch, but kept working in a different job. It's wrong, I don't like it, whatever, just get them off the damned teat.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Amen. And I think doing so would cut down a lot of this unrest going on in various cities; people are a lot less likely to stir up trouble all night if they know they have to get up the next morning to go to work.

"Those who control the present control the past.  Those who control the past control the future."

-G. Orwell-
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

-Ayn Rand-
