is the time in the election cycle when I'm starting to hear from a lot of
people asking for support in the 2014 election. Some people want moral
support. Others want money. (Well, they *all* want money.)
Many of them are good people and I like a lot of them. But I can't support
any of them in good conscience, because I can't support the system they've
chosen to join. To save myself from having to reply to every candidate
personally and explain the reason, let me explain to everybody all at once.
If you're running for office, I don't necessarily oppose you personally,
but I oppose the entire system of coercion that majoritarianism represents.
You're probably a decent person. You probably mean well. But for anything
to change, the entire structure of the system has to change. Just electing
you -- or even hundreds or thousands of people like you -- isn't going to
change anything.
If you grew up in this country, you were probably taught to revere the
political system that's in place. You heard propaganda in school about how
great the system was. You were taught that "democracy" and "freedom" mean
the same thing. (You were lied to <http://www.davidmcelroy.org/?p=3414>.)
You were taught the fiction that if honest men (and women) would just "do
the right things," the system would produce peace, prosperity and freedom
for all. After all, it worked in "Mr. Smith Goes to
Washington<http://www.tcm.com/mediaroom/video/215966/Mr-Smith-Goes-To-Washington-Original-Trailer-.html>,"
didn't it?
