Oh, hey!

I meant to link this article at World Net Daily. And share this bit of genius with you:

"And note that it's covetousness, not drug use, that wraps up the Ten Commandments. Jealousy and envy are far more dangerous to society than funny cigarettes or little blue pills. So if it makes sense to go after drugs in the effort to save society, then it's equally sensible to send cops to round up all the envy-pushers on Madison Ave. and in the halls of Congress."

Now, as a Bourgeois Philistine (I just spell checked this, and the only problem spell checker found was "and" after "Ave.". You think the machine knows how to spell Bourgeois?) I take exception to the equation of Ad-men and politicians. If you think something's crap, don't buy it. There's no force involved here. You are responsible to yourself, your loved ones and your God for how you steward your resources. You are not a victim! Politicians, however, have the force of law and the guns of government to make you obey their whims.

Miller's fully aware of the latter point. Read, as they say, the whole thing. RTWT.

There's another wonderful article at WND today, by Jim Babka.
