Is It Time To Cut To The Chase And Begin Working For The Only Long-Term Solution To The Protection Of Liberty?

From Psychology University and Secession and Nullification--News and Information:

Is It Time To Cut To The Chase And Begin Working For The Only Long-term Solution To The Protection Of Liberty?


August 28th, 2010 adminSkip to CommentsFor the sake of discussion, let’s assume we can change the Federal government through the totally f-ed up democratic process and steer the sinking ship back towards shore before it sinks, patch the hull and set it out on the course of freedom again. How long before it starts to go wrong again? Not long, I’m afraid. Indeed, probably as soon as the patriots turn around and go back to tending their own business.

The system is fundamentally flawed because it lacks any meaningful check on Federal power. So even if, by a herculean effort, you reign it in, what is to prevent it from breaking out of its restraints again? People will get weary of constantly fighting the attempt by special interest to pervert government for their own benefit. Or they will forget what they were fighting against. The Public Choice school of economics has pretty well demonstrated why the economic incentives favor the hijacking of government and why the deck is stacked against those who want to keep it restrained. The bottom line is that the behemoth USA is unstable and unsustainable as currently constituted. So what is the solution?

Secession. The only force that can keep the USA together is the power to tear it apart the moment it ceases to serve the needs of its members. And the only way to re-establish the right of secession at this point is to secede and make it stick.

Indeed, the right of secession is critical to stability from the Federal level all the way down to the individual property owner. Real liberty can only survive when each individual has the option to reject the jurisdiction of any government that exceeds its powers. Only then will government truly be the servant of the people rather than the master. Nothing else will ever contain the beast for long.

So, isn’t it time to cut to the chase and begin working for the only long-term solution to the protection of liberty? Everything else is just Sisyphean torment.

The ultimate goal must be secession!

What do you think?
