Freedom Cannot Come Via Democratic Process

The trouble in democracy when it comes to regaining liberty is that there are too many vested interests ie part of the electorate for whom redistributing money via the tax system from their neighbour's wallets into their own is too attractive a proposition for them to want to vote for changing it.The producers and business people who create wealth are in a permanent minority and are ripe for plundering by politicians seeking power and votes from the majority.At least they should stop supporting financially the conservative party that never delivers any relief for the business sector and only heaps more taxes and regulation upon it.

This is known as sanction of the victims and the business community should cease such masochistic behaviour.They should instead seek to fund a movement that is wholly supportive of their interests but even this would never provide a majority at the ballot box and in conclusion one has to say that change cannot come through the democratic process and will of necessity involve employer's non compliance with the tax laws and concerted action by business to no longer play the sacrificial lamb to the state butcher.

Here I part company from the Randians who say that through education change will come.Well they have been saying that for over 60 years and look where we are.The States across the so called free world have only got bigger waiting for that to happen.Business should assert itself and no longer act as unpaid tax collector for the State or as welfare provider to their employees.Appealing to the masses to support such measures is like expecting turkeys to vote for christmas.

We have heard and seen an awful lot of delinquent behaviour from Socialist unions over the past century flexing their muscles and using force sanctioned by the State to extract money and concessions from employers.It is time now to see some collective action from the wealth producers in the form of civil disobedience and witholding of taxes and active resistance against state tyranny of taxation.
