Give me a fucking break.

I hate loud commercials as much as the next guy, but is this really something we need to pay the government to “protect” us from??!!

Of course the bill was written by a California Democrat. I think they’re just trying to further quash free trade throughout America, to more quickly nationalize everything.

Today’s episode is a rebroadcast of the Republican Liberty Caucus radio show LIBERTARIAN POLITICS LIVE.

Interview by Eric Dondero. Guest: Michael W. Dean. Callers Jeremy (BLT) and Pat Kim (admins of Conservative Punk forums), and another really smart guy named TonyInOhio. Special drop-in appearance by Homeschool Mom.

(I did a bit of audio fluffing to try to even out the different telephone caller’s volumes.)

OK, this is kind of mindblowing…

Tonight I got an e-mail from Sue Wallis, a Republican member of the Wyoming House of Representatives. She said “I loved the story” (Buy a gun, lose all your friends), and she welcomed me to Wyoming.
She also gave me her cell number and her ranch number.

I couldn’t directly contact a State House member in California when I lived there if I wanted to (I tried.) All I got back is a form letter.

To have one contact me is kind of amazing.

I’m sure it’s partially a function of it being a much smaller state. But I think it’s also a function of the fact that people are just darned friendly in Wyoming.

She has an A rating from the NRA too.

The Lost Beef People tracks. Recorded in 1985 at Inner Ear Studio, engineered by Don Zientara. I played guitar on this.

We recorded and mixed about 15 tracks in probably 8 hours. Some were released as the 1985 EP “Music for Men” (Catch Trout Records.) These remaining seven tracks were finally released last year by UK label Damaged Records” on vinyl, limited edition of 500, only went out as inserts in an issue of Artcore zine.

They’ve all long sold out, so I can post MP3s now:

Michael Dean replied:

Cap ‘n’ Trade (or as some call it “Cap ‘n’ Tax), as well as gob’mint intervention with companies who should be allowed to fail (and then the gub’mint has the right to cap salaries of executives, which drives the good ones to retire early or move to a non-regulated company), higher business taxes, manipulating the lending rates, and much more that has gone through in the past year or is planned since Obama came in, are all going to punish the rich and reward the poor (including bums who don’t WANT to work.) That will “redistribute the wealth.”

Obama’s plan is inspired by one of his favorite books, written by Cloward and Piven in the 60s.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloward…Piven_strategy

Cloward and Piven decided that socialist/communist revolution “in the street” (i.e. the violence of the Yippies and the Weather Underground) was not working, and the solution was to GET EVERYONE ON WELFARE, COLLAPSE THE SYSTEM, THEN REDESIGN IT SO NO ONE CAN BE RICH AND NO ONE CAN BE POOR.

Obama’s doing all this crap to get us all on some sort of gub’mint money handout/job (if health care plan goes through, gubmint will control 1/6 of the economy, in addition to all that they control now.)

He wants to eliminate competition. COMPETITION MADE AMERICA GREAT, AND DRIVES ALL LEAPS FORWARD IN BUSINESS AND TECHNOLOGY. (For instance, I’m all for “green jobs” and “green energy”, but from the private sector. They would do it better and quicker. Obama making the gub’mint in charge of it will, as he says “drive up the price of energy.” The private sector doing it in competition would drive the price down.)

The Obama plan is to take away all our rights, and having us work for the “benevolent nanny parent” of the State. Like the USSR was. Whereby you cannot criticize the gub’mint, or you’ll starve (or be in prison.)

ME? I prefer to be more self-sufficient, suffer if I fail, and not have big brother peeping into my bank account, web surfing, private communications, who I hang out with, what I buy, own and do, etc.

In Socialist countries, tax on business is 70%, inheritance is about 95%, so there is little incentive to compete to do well (again, competition makes a nation great, and drives all innovation). Why work your ass off inventing and marketing something groundbreaking, or running a small business that creates more jobs, when you’ll make very little more money than a factory worker, and you’ll have nothing to pass on to your kids even if you do somehow get rich?

You are under the state-school-taught delusion that everything needs controlling. Most systems (including economics) do better with little-to-no control, and do far worse under lots of control.

Michael Dean replied:

Ahhh….the plaintive cry of every liberal and statist! “WON’T SOMEONE PLEASE THINK OF THE CHILDREN??!!”

I trust parents more than you. You seem to want the state to raise kids (ever read “1984″ by George Orwell? You should read it now, because they don’t assign it in college anymore, most likely. And will likely be a banned book in 10 years. Yes, I’m predicting book bannings. And burnings.)

My dad didn’t have health insurance until he was 40. He grew up on a farm, worked on the farm until 40, ate healthy, did physical labor. When he needed a doctor, he drove into town, saw one and paid for it. It was much cheaper than now, because there was very little government oversite, no HMOs, etc.

And if he was too sick to go into town, the doctor came to him.

My dad is 88, and lived through the Great Depression. It was preceded by similar gov intervention to what we’re seeing now. That stuff causes economic downturns, it does not prevent them.

Michael Dean replied:

But if it is overregulated, it does go to an elite, and that “elite” is the Federal Government!

The Republican Liberty Caucus
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republican_Liberty_Caucus

blogged the band today!
http://libertarianrepublican.blogspot.com/2009/12/hardcore-right-wing-punk-rock-from.html

yay!

We’re headlining on their site. Excellent! I’m honored, and I’m gonna have to check ‘em out more. I’m lately very torn on “vote libertarian, or vote to actually get someone elected.”
They might hold the answer.

And Eric Dondero who blogged it says he’s been blasting the music in his pickup truck early every morning, in TEXAS. When I started recording this I had a fantasy of it blasting out of pickup trucks in Texas and Idaho for some reason. (Though it might accomplish more if it were blasting out of lots of Volvos in San Francisco and limos in DC )

Got 55 pounds of Commie 1984 Bulgarian 7.62 x .54 Mosin Nagant ammo today. Came in the original crate.
This ammo is from the cold war. It was made for shooting at US in a war that never came. Then that part of the world went bankrupt, so they sold it to us. Cheap. Was 200 bucks for 880 rounds.

I may have to buy a pallet of this stuff.

I think this is Russian for “Inspected by number _____.”

Unrelated fun goofy picture of what my wife left for me this morning in my coffee cup by the coffee pot (which she set to go off, based on when I fall asleep, plus 8 hours.)

(quoted with permission.)

Just got off the phone with him. He said “I got your CD in the mail yesterday. It looks great. Haven’t listened to the music yet, but I read the lyric sheet twice, and it tells a great story. I love what you’re doing, and I’m proud of you.”

He added “But it breaks my heart that since you did this, you’ll be one of the first ones to go when they start rounding people up.”

I said, “Remember five months ago when you and I were talking about how America is being destroyed, and I asked you what to do? You said ‘Fight it in any way you can.’ And I said ‘What if they throw me in prison, even if I’m not breaking the law?’ and you said ‘They probably will’. ….well, Dad, that’s part of why I made this CD.”

I love my Dad. He rocks. (He’ll probably hate the music, but that doesn’t matter. The lyrics are what matter.)

Also - He said of the cussing in the lyrics “There were a few crunchy words you used in there that I wouldn’t have used, but that music isn’t my world, so I can’t criticize that.”

Crunchy. That’s excellent.

Jews for the Preservation of Firearm Ownership put a track from my new CD on their website.

It’s Debra Jean reading the Bill of Rights. It’s a bonus spoken track after the songs. We’re really honored that they did this. We dig it. (And yes, they did ask permission!)

It’s on their “Freedom Music” page:
