Independence of what? IRS harrasment? Watch how you vote. Illegal immigrants? They’re swarming over the border with federal complicity, then flying and busing to a neighborhood near you.
The Democrat Depression? Be thankful if you’re employed. Ninety-two million are not and the ruling Democrats don’t care. Vote for them again and you might get beer with your food stamps. As Andrew Klavan says: “Trading welfare for power is the second oldest profession.”
Clear skies above your town? Except for the government drones and their cameras. Be thankful they’re not armed. So far. Privacy on your Internet account? Unless you use Facebook, Apple, Microsoft, etc. The National Security Agency is watching, listening, recording it all. The FBI is seizing websites when it pleases them.
Wanna shoot off fire crackers for old times sake? Not in Austin. Too dangerous. Too individual. Same thing.
Attention, comrades! You will celebrate today. It takes a village, you know, as the presumed next Democrat president is famous for saying. Have another helping of government cheese. Mmmm. So good.
UPDATE: It wasn’t supposed to be this way: “In a time when government mandates what you can eat and how much of it, only one of the ways it seeks to regulate every aspect of daily life for the greater good—the declaration that started it all declares that the purpose of government is not social justice, a minimally obese population, universal tolerance or even equality. Equality is acknowledged as a fact, not as a goal.”
