quote of the day.......
A Fatal Tendency of Mankind.
Self-preservation and self-development are
common aspirations among all people.
And if everyone enjoyed the unrestricted use of
his faculties and the free disposition of the fruits of
his labor, social progress would be ceaseless,
uninterrupted, and unfailing.
But there is also another tendency
that is common among people.
When they can, they wish to live and prosper
at the expense of others.
This is no rash accusation.
Nor does it come from a gloomy and uncharitable spirit.
The annals of history bear witness to the truth of it:
the incessant wars, mass migrations,
religious persecutions, universal slavery,
dishonesty in commerce, and monopolies.
This fatal desire has its origin in the very nature of man -
in that primitive, universal, and insuppressible instinct
that impels him to satisfy his desires
with the least possible pain.
-Frederic Bastiat(1801-1850) French economist, statesman, and author.
"The Law" by Frederic Bastiat (1848)

In a world of distortion.....
In a distorted world
One should be aware that
One's sense of fantastic is
Often replaced by
The ridiculous, absurd,
Obscene and obscure.

To be the one that is of just world....
Treat others kindly... No matter what
It if it's in prison or even Gitmo or
A godforsaken place...
Treat others kindly and do what best you can
To be the one that is of just world....
Perhaps you will be doing something
The world has failed to do in the first place
Treat others kindly....and
Do what best you can.

No cause is left but the most ancient of all,
the one, in fact, that from the beginning of

Quote of the day......
The fundamental source of all your errors,
sophisms and false reasonings is
a total ignorance of the natural rights of mankind.
Were you once to become acquainted with these,
you could never entertain a thought,
that all men are not, by nature,
entitled to a parity of privileges.
You would be convinced, that natural liberty is
a gift of the beneficent Creator to
the whole human race, and
that civil liberty is founded in that; and
cannot be wrested from any people,
without the most manifest violation of justice.
-- Alexander Hamilton
(1757-1804)
