    Default Re: US Federal Government Shutdown

    Who knows. I know that I'm not represented in government and have no idea what "representation" is good for. I'm thinking about starting a kick starter campaign in my area against Pete King. Maybe putting up signs that say America Rejects Kings - republicans against Pete King, you know, just because I want to help stress the guy out if I can.

    My one belief is in undermining authority. Years ago I railed against the church because I thought they had power. As I got older, I realized that the church held very little temporal authority and was in fact the underdog in modern society, so I joined it. Then I realized that the GOP was the ideological underdog against a populist tide. I joined it to fight. Now, I see the big prize in taking a piece out of the Federal gov. Beyond that, the power is held by established business interests. Life is about searching for goliaths, belittling them and then putting that stone right between their eyes until the day you die.

    "That rifle hanging on the wall of the working-class flat or labourer's cottage is the symbol of democracy. It is our job to see that it stays there."
    -Eric "George Orwell" Blair

    "If the policy of the government, upon vital questions affecting the whole people, is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court...the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically resigned the government into the hands of that eminent tribunal."
    (Lincoln's First Inaugural Address, 1861).
