The left judge shops and have made it an art form.

The left is also willing to show up at judge's homes and protest or even threaten them.

We are asking the people who have the power to give up that power.

When pigs fly, no government has ever given up power once obtained.

That is the number one message of Thomas Jefferson in the Declaration.

How about this? Dissolve the union into Blue and Red. Then just wait until the Blues run out of money from over taxation and overspending and cry to re-join the Reds. Look to Canada today, the same thing is going on there. We have a lot in common. A good example of this happening right now is California, where the people are leaving because they can no longer afford to live there. New York, too.

As long as capitalism is pure, without government interference, your statement is 100% correct. Free markets run themselves.

There is no such thing in the real World as a "Free Market", John.

https://truthout.org/articles/there-is-no-such-thing-as-a-free-market/

"The free market doesnтАЩt exist. Every market has some rules and boundaries that restrict freedom of choice. A market looks free only because we so unconditionally accept its underlying restrictions that we fail to see them. How тАШfreeтАЩ a market is cannot be objectively defined. It is a political definition."

"The usual claim by free-market economists that they are trying to defend the market from politically motivated interference by the government is false. Government is always involved and those free-marketeers are as politically motivated as anyone. Overcoming the myth that there is such a thing as an objectively defined тАШfree marketтАЩ is the first step towards understanding capitalism."

I think that has a lot to do with the latest supreme court rulings. It's domestic terrorism, basically.
