A militia is avery able bodied man between 16 and 60.
No. You don’t get to choose this fundamental right. If you do, those men will eliminate all your rights, fundamental or not. Sovereignty, Reciprocity, Truth, Duty, Judge, Jury, and Markets in everything. That’s meritocracy.

Jefferson’s Virtue Of Violence
30 Apr 2010
—“I have sworn upon the altar of God eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man.” – Thomas Jefferson to Benjamin Rush (1800)
Freedom is created by, and maintained by, the use of violence, and a man’s capacity for violence is his political wealth. The promise he will use his violence to create freedom, is met with the lack of his need to use it for any purpose whatsoever. It is a wealth sparely spent with high returns.

**THEME: “REPRESENTATION WITHOUT TAXATION”**
May 6th, 2009
I’ve been looking for a simple theme and I found it today on Kling’s blog:
“Our last revolution was fueled by taxation without representation — the coming revolution is being fueled by representation without taxation.”
Followed by a few choice others:
“As the population size goes to infinity the political significance of any individual goes to zero. In small populations, democracy is a way to make decisions. In a large population, it gives the state the ability to signal it is providing liberty and freedom when in fact it is doing just the opposite.”
“… they did originally limit the vote to property owners, which takes care of the everybody-votes-themselves-a-share-of-my-stuff problem (an instance of tyranny of the majority). Then we got rid of that restriction (and a lot of worse ones, granted). Now we’re vulnerable to the flaw Tocqueville identified: The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public’s money.”
“Democracy in all its forms sows the seeds of its own destruction. Regardless of how you attempt to limit it, the majority will always eventually enslave the population, including its own members, by the use of popular vote.”
“Democracy is just incremental communism.”

**DON BOUDREAUX SWINGS AND MISSES THE ENTIRE POINT: SOVEREIGNTY**
April 27th, 2010
Over on Cafe Hayek, Don Boudreaux attacks Arizona’s policy, and in doing so, falls into the abyss of economic tyranny: the justification of economic outcome over freedom and sovereignty.
By demonizing immigrants, these politicians exploit voters’ misinformation about the economic consequences of the alleged devils.
My response was:
Don,
You’re confusing the priority of people’s perceptions of their economic consequences with the priority of people’s perception of their political and cultural sovereignty, as well as their perception of their associated status. These people [Arizonians] have been wronged. They have been wronged by a loss of sovereignty, and a reduction in cultural dominance, and wronged by an ongoing diminution of their status. And people will act far more passionately to defend their social position than they will to an abstract economic benefit. That was, and is, the entire reason behind nationalism. Or did you forget?
When the use of economic outcomes becomes the primary criteria that one uses to determine all policy, then the economist makes a fundamental error because he ignores the most important of ‘animal spirits’: status and sovereignty. And then the methods of economics become either a religion, or the error of intellectual myopia, or of intellectual vanity.
Otherwise, economic policies are the tools of tyranny, and the justification of tyranny.

It’s very smart. Look at what russia is doing. We look at the map equatorially, but if you look at a polar projection you rapidly understand what’s going on.

Trump has asked advisers whether the U.S. can acquire Greenland, listened with interest when they discuss its resources and geopolitical importance, and, according to two people familiar with the deliberations, has asked his White House counsel to look into the idea

No the constitution originally was designed so that washington would be king, and they asked him. A monarchy in the anglo system is a judge of last resort. empirical evidence says parliamentary monarchies are the optimum political order. Amendments to constitution have been done.

To popularize the necessity and utility of Revolution, Devolution, Secession, Separation, and going our separate ways (speciation), rather than our other option: conquest, enslavement, enserfment, and extermination. It’s not like y’all have any chance. We’re world’s largest army.
