With Democrats Things Get Better (1/26/23) - A Deep Dive on Biden, Dems and the Economy

Dear Libertarians

 To my friends who are finally leaving the Libertarian Party: the Democratic Party is the largest anti-fascist coalition in history, and has never been more libertarian on matters of personal liberty. The vast majority advocate well-regulated capitalism, a good safety net, and progressive taxation. That combo has in fact produced some of the most free societies in history

Most are anti-interventionist and they are divided on trade. Most want more immigration, and some even scratch the libertarian position.
As a libertarian Democrat, I just helped, in small ways, Democrats legalize cannabis here in Connecticut. For years Libertarians cried, but we Democrats delivered. It felt good to win one for liberty.
Fellow libertarians, the Libertarian Party is no longer the place for us. The fascist Republican Party is literally the opposite of us. Now is the time to choose the lesser evil, and find out, as I did, that the lesser evil is pretty damn good.

Right Here, Right Now

 


For me, it's never been about left or right -- it's always been about authoritarian or libertarian. Right here, right now, the left is more libertarian than it's ever been, while the right is more authoritarian than it's ever been. Therefore, until this changes, it is obviously time for libertarians to ally themselves with the left, and oppose the right.

The left, from AOC and Bernie to Biden and Manchin, all want well regulated capitalism, a good safety net, and more progressive taxation. That combination has literally produced the most libertarian societies on the planet, as per the Human Freedom Index.
The right -- all of them -- want to end democracy and replace it with white supremacy, gangster capitalism, no safety net, and a police state to keep the rabble in line.
Right here, right now, there's a real difference. All decent humans need to unite against the right and for liberal democracy.

Why Do Republicans Lie So Much More Than Democrats?



 The reason Democrats don't lie as much as Republicans is because they don't have to. In general, they want a more pluralistic America, a better regulated economy, a better safety net, and a more progressive taxation system.

They want what they want, and the rest is just agreeing on the details and how to sell it/explain it/argue for it. No lies needed. Ever.
Republicans, on the other hand, want a white ethno-state with a fascist government, run by an oligarchy, like they have in Russia and other "banana republics."
You can't sell that crap to decent humans, so they have to lie, lie, lie.

Libertarians for Joe Biden

Never have Republicans been more authoritarian, and never have Democrats been more libertarian. The LP has thankfully picked someone less qualified than Trump to be president, so there's no reason to support their candidate. Real libertarians are voting Democrat this time around.

Hillary's Speech

Well, Hillary Clinton once again proved that she would have been a much better choice for Democrats to nominate for the White House, and right now she would be kicking McCain's butt in the polls.

She was also obviously the best candidate for Vice President as well, but Obama, in what I feel was a combination of weakness and hubris, chose Darth Plagiarus instead.

She made a fine speech for unity, a fine speech against McCain, but not much was there specifically praising Obama. Perhaps because there really isn't all that much there to praise.

By the way, I'd never vote for her, or just about any Democrat -- too much government cheese for my taste. I am writing purely to give credit where credit is due.

Here we are in a year where ANY Democrat beats any Republican by a wide margin, and Mr. Obama can't get more than a point ahead of McCain. His choice of Darth Plagiarus actually HURTS him, and thus far, he hasn't gotten a bump out of this convention.

I bet there's a lot of buyers' remorse among Democrats right now.

Democratic Convention Night One

Very touching Kennedy bit, Obama's kids are soooo cute.

Wake me up when something cool happens.
