Requiring voter ID is supposedly evil because it’s the same as a poll tax which is evil because it’s what we used to do to all poor people including white crackers. Wait till they find out that children can’t vote. Hey if I’m a descendent of a cracker, do I still have to pay reparations? I’m not at all convinced that poll taxes are bad and would have no problems standing before God and saying so. There are some more fundamental things than voting, like , I don’t know life. You know part of that “life liberty and the pursuit of cancelling everyone you don’t like”? No, that can’t be right. If restricting access to voting is evil how about restricting access to life?
I was struck by this reality as I was listening to a hollywood actress with no clothes figuratively and literally drone on about the virtues of making movies when no one else can work. I heard the clip from a third party because like everyone else I have better things to do than watch godless people give each other awards. These people can work because they are tested repeatedly and quarantined and besides they are hollywood elites so they can call up their mayor/governor and get whatever they want. But the average business man can’t afford all this extra cost. Maybe he could if he were not already jumping through hundreds of hoops from the tax code to the OSHA, EPA, and a dozens other do-nothing State and Federal agencies. These are all restrictions on the most basic function of moral productive life, working. Like that guy in the Princess Bride says “they aren’t sucking poll taxes, they are sucking life.” Or something like that. And that is actually the point, laws are just about restricting access and securing special privileges. We just have a more fancy way of doing it today. Rich people can afford lawyers and lower class slaves to comply with all of these pointless rules, the COVID rules are just the latest layer. But the rest of us must expel our life, if we even have the option of complying.
I was thinking of another comparison. While you are taking off your clothes, and being swabbed and harassed and scanned and stripped by incompetent airport security, ( I’m sorry is is rude to call a group of people who fail more often than COVID, incompetent?) they are hopping on their private jets, with no security checks. Private flight is fine if you can afford it, but they have to preach to us the whole time about destroying the planet. I just looked up some basic numbers, it costs $75,000-$125,000 to charter a private plane from LA to DC. Which Nancy Pelosi does regularly, either paid for by us or some donor scam. The average commercial flight is probably $300. Those numbers represent the materials and personnel needed to make your flight happen. Minerals need to be mined and refined and be organized into a plane. People need to be organized to fly and service the plane. Oil must be refined. These numbers are really just units of energy. The private flight person has consumed 100,000 units worth of resources for their trip, the average joe has consumed 300 units. Now for people who own their own plane, it’s even worse. They pay for the convenience of always having it at their disposal. You are consuming hanger space, and unused plane potential, even when not flying. The pilate ratio is the same as the private charter, but you might pay his whole salary to have him available at all times. I would have a moral problem consuming so much for myself regardless of the environment. But these people are pure hypocrites. And why do we put up with al this? Why do we honor, and respect and exalt such horrible people? Where is the responsibility of those with a lot, or in leadership to set a good example for others? And it’s not enough that they have all this, the encourage rioting mobs to come and burn down our COVID closed businesses. And we dare to protest actual suppression of votes, and they hunt us down and put is in jail for nothing, and put us on the no-fly list. So we don’t even have the option of being publicly sexually molested by the TSA. It’s not about sticking it to the rich, it’s about leaving us the hell alone so we can work and travel freely.
