HOW TO DEFEAT STATISM
Even though I have clearly defined statism in Fatal Blindness, I still
occasionally receive e-mail asking me to define the term "statism." I
also
receive some mail, not a lot, that maintains that it is hopeless to
attempt
to defeat statism.
What is evident is the fact that most do not understand the meaning of
statism. Nor do they understand what a pathetically impotent enemy
statism
is and just how vulnerable it is. Neither do most understand that the
key
to defeating statists is really very simple, right in front of
everyone's nose.
Statism is the doctrine that maintains that your life, money and
property
are not yours. It is the idea that you may only take those actions
permitted by the state, that you may be forced to surrender your money
to
the state or forbidden to spend it as you please, that you may not use
and
dispose of your property as you see fit. In other words, statism
declares
that you do not have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness.
Tellingly, you will never hear statist politicians openly maintain that
you
do not have the right to your life, money and property�even though this
is,
in fact, the basic principle underlying all of their claims. Statist
politicians do not make this explicit and with good reason. They
advance
this underlying idea by implication and by subterfuge�and this fact is
the
key to defeating statism.
A statist does not openly state that your life, money and property are
not
yours. Instead, he claims that there is a "right" to health
care�which
means: your life is to be forcibly mortgaged to pay for the health care
of
others; and this means your life and money are not yours. Statist
politicians claim there is a "right" to education�which means: you are
going
to be forced to pay for someone else's education; and this means your
money
is not yours. Statist politicians claim "essential public services"
must be
maintained through property taxes�which means: you must pay an annual
fee to
retain possession of your property; and this means your "ownership" of
your
property is conditional, that your property is not yours.
Statism can be defeated if political debate is reframed, if statists
are
made to defend the actual meaning of their ideas. If this ever
happens,
then statists will lose since they cannot win such a debate, at least
not in
America�at least not now.
If you wish to defend your right to your life, your money and property,
you
must make that the issue. You must focus on this single issue and hold
statist politicians' feet to the fire on it. Don't let them off the
hook on
this matter, otherwise they will continue to win. You have to make them
attempt to defend the indefensible. Once this occurs, statists will be
on
the defensive, squirming for some way to avoid the question: is your
life,
money and property yours?
Let statists attempt to promote the growth of the state and the decline
of
freedom by declaring that your life is not yours, that you have no
right to
it, that you do not have the right to live your life according to your
own
judgment, that you live, not by right, but by permission of the state.
They
will not be able to win a debate on such terms. Like vampires,
statists
cannot survive if their real ideas see daylight.
Some dispirited souls will undoubtedly say that defeating statism
cannot be
this simple. Their reaction will be: if it were that simple then
someone
else would have thought of it and tried it. Well, others have thought
of it
but not in sufficient numbers to yet make much of a difference.
Defeating statism cannot be accomplished single-handedly. It must be
done
in concert with others, lots of others. Focusing the debate on the
issue of
your right to your life, money and property will not be accomplished
overnight. First, it will begin with a trickle on the Internet, then
gradually spread to other communication outlets. But spread it will.
And
eventually it will burst into public debate during an election
campaign.
How long will this take? I do not know, but as increasing numbers
flock to
the Internet it could happen quickly. It could even happen in time for
the
2000 elections.
Let the new debate begin.
