Of No Consequence

Politicians are politicians are politicians. Liberal left? Conservative right? Don't make me laugh. These guys are all the same. You think Republicans DON'T root for Democrats' programs to fail? You think Democrats DON'T root for Republicans' programs to fail? You're kidding yourselves.

Politicians care first, foremost, and only about themselves - their measure of success is how much power they can accumulate over others. If you want to understand how little different the left and right are, examine their economics. Economic freedom is the basis of all freedom - economic slavery is the basis of tyranny. The left and the right share a single economic theory.

This isn't new data - and people who sacrifice principle to the expedient by "voting for the lesser of two evils" are a part of the problem.

It really took me years to come to this conclusion - that politicians are all the same. The only difference is the special interest they serve, and in my opinion that is no difference at all. For politicians it is all about money and power; there isn't any underlying substance to them. They are hollow, morally and intellectually bankrupt; they are completely lacking integrity and conviction. They are quite simply the most awful of people.

When the government's boot is on your throat, whether it is a left boot or a right boot is of no consequence.
