Every Libertarian Vote Counts

In 1968, every single presidential vote was wasted, in the sense that it furthered increased coercion. Voting Republican or George Wallace’s “American” Party meant to enslave and shoot kids here (over plant leaves) and bomb slave kids elsewhere. The communists (socialists, socialist labor, etc parties) wanted higher taxes and more government coercion than even the Entrenched Kleptocracy. The Prohibition party wanted men with guns to ban all enjoyable substances, burn books and enslave young women. There was a Peace and Freedom party on the ballot in a couple of places. Those were mostly looters impersonating hepcats and demanding coercive economic laws. The word “repeal” is generally avoided among such parties the same way “enforce” is parroted.(link)

Reason was circulated as mimeographed sheets, Stranger in a Strange Land had just turned seven and The Moon is a Harsh Mistress was as distressing to Christian National Socialism as it was to East German Communism. Nobody got addicted to and nobody died of overdoses from the non-toxic psychedelics available everywhere. We all argued about Atlas Shrugged, not The Constitution. Suddenly George Wallace got the Democratic Solid South’s electoral votes, and Richard Nixon–the guy who sued Texas after losing to JFK–was declared President. That was what losing felt like.

Timothy Leary had an idea. “THE ONLY ALTERNATIVE to violent authoritarianism is to start a New Party, a fresh celebratory reunion based on a positive psychology of affectionate reward; to develop a rational good-humored social system which rewards healthy, honest, harmoniously individualistic behavior…”(link) Next thing you know, the Libertarian Party organized to repeal prohibition laws, extend individual rights protection to women, abolish conscription and foreign meddling and run candidates on that platform to wield leveraged, law-changing spoiler votes and compete with the entrenched Kleptocracy.(link)

Spoiler vote leverage made that repeal happen time and again.(link) Looter parties eager to send men with guns to kick in doors and coerce women feared our spoiler votes because their platform was written by Rockefeller-funded Prohibition Party spoiler votes. Some Democrats wanted to reenact racial collectivism and others dreamt of someone else’s money. The Libertarian party was the only way–and still is the only way–to vote against deadly coercion. Every time sorehead Republican or Democrat losers delete a freedom-crushing plank from their party’s platform, every time our spoiler votes get them to repeal a coercive law–THAT’S A LIBERTARIAN VICTORY!

Good reading: Bad things were happening on the planet Earth, things few understood. “Guided missile defenses were especially in demand. If there was anyone, anywhere, who pointed out that the cattle in Chicago did not die of disease, he was denounced for his denial of the general belief that they had. But anyone who observed that if the cattle had died of plague, antiaircraft batteries would be useless was regarded as subversive.” Sound familiar? The year was not 2020 and the quote is not from the paper. War With The Gizmos by Murray Leinster was published in 1958! Fanatical belief in imaginary Truth was causing heretic-hunters to brand skeptics as deniers 66 years ago!

Trump Asset Forfeiture

These are DEA forfeitures alone, no DOJ or State and County forfeitures included (link)

The Democrats won in 2008 because George Waffen Bush wrecked the economy with faith-based asset forfeiture programs. Such confiscatory looting has been going on since the Comstock era, when the postal monopoly in 1873 was converted into a confiscatory agency of puritan altruist uplift.(link) Prohibition Party spoiler votes reinforced by socialist spoiler votes (they were pals before the Bolshvik revolution) brought on prohibitionist legislation and amended the Constitution. (link) This brought the Crash and Great Depression in 1929, and more in 1971, 1987 and 2008.

Democrats quickly worsened matters, using takings to fund bailouts of their large donors. Republicans expanded this asset-forfeiture robbery from behind the badges of First Responder™ qualified immunity. Suddenly, according to current news accounts, Americans have taken to hunting and killing police as randomly as they themselves–their children and their pets–are hunted and killed by police on orders from looter politicians.

Kangaroo court trials justified huge civil penalties and the prohibitionist Pure Food and Drug Act, once it became enforceable in 1907, promptly crashed the banking system.(link) National prohibition again crashed the economy–in 1920-23,  and again in 1929-33.(link) Nixon’s Operation Intercept caused a recession in 1971, and the Graham-Biden-Reagan-Leahy-Kerry drug prohibition, forfeiture, imprisonment and deportation laws generated the Crashes of 1987 and 2008. (link) Above are Trump Administration DOJ takings under the pretext of asset forfeiture. (link) They do not seem to be as bad as when the Dems were in power, but that is small consolation to politicians deservedly tossed out on their asses.

The Dems never discuss the takings they looted us for after Bush wrecked the economy with way lower forfeiture numbers. Nor do Republicans talk about these figures or the Flash Crashes that coincided with bank raids or suddenly-announced changes in these predatory policies. The Dems understood this (as they understood it in 1932) and erased all men-with-guns planks from the drug policy portions of their platform after being clubbed out of the ring by 2016 Libertarian spoiler votes. Republicans stood pat on a platform dedicated in its preamble to dog-shooting First Responders™ and their SWAT teams.

…people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures…

Dems sure as hell did better than in 2016 against the stand-pat Republican platform dedicated to bullies with guns. Observe: Dems copied some LP policies, Dems won election. Comstock Republicans scare the daylights out of women voters by putting (according to Communist News Network) a faith-addled fanatic on the Court to overturn the Libertarian Roe v. Wade decision, Republicans lose election.

The candidate that liked libertarianism in 2016 won. The party that deleted its anti-libertarian War On Plant Leaves verbiage in 2020 won, and the party that retained its platform demands for coathanger abortions and the robbing and shooting of youth over choice of vegetation may very well have lost. Got that? Libertarian spoiler votes–when the LP platform is not deliberately sabotaged–are a reliable indication of what planks the looters ought to delete on pain of themselves being deleted from office.

Only by voting Libertarian can you express awareness of and opposition to cruel and irrational enactments. You could have invested a law-changing leveraged vote on the permanent record opposing these robberies, the prisons they build, the stresses they impose on the banking system and the economic crises they precipitated in 1907, 1920, 1929, 1971, 1987, 2008 and the Flash Crashes of 2010 and 2015. Why follow the Germans’ belief that fascism and communism are the only possible alternatives? Look at where those policies put Germany in 1947, as Atlas Shrugged was being written.

If you missed your 12th chance to vote Libertarian you sanctioned coercion. Libertarian votes, though thinned down by communist anarchist infiltration of the platform committee and general sabotage nationally, still covered the gap in many county and state elections and elected a mess of candidates. (link)

Burdened by a communist anarchist running mate, Jo Jorgensen got the smallest number of votes of any libertarian near the capital of Texas, and barely edged out None Of The Above in Nevada. The 2016 platform needs to be restored in 2022 to normal constitutional border inspection to detect terrorists and bioweapons.

Communist anarchists on the platform committee can be sent back to their East-German style intellectual leaders, and the Libertarian party, sadder but wiser, can resume increasing its spoiler votes by 80% per year as occurred just before the 2018 changes.

Libertarians against Crash and Depressions

 

Since 1998 I have shown that Prohibition enforcement–telling people at gunpoint what they may consume–caused the Crash and Great Depression. It is also the cause of most organized crime and cowardly ambushes of citizens by police and vice-versa. Voting Libertarian is your chance to save the economy from prohibition related depressions as in 1907, 1920, 1929, 1969, 1987 and 2008–not to mention the Flash Crashes. It is also the best way to keep your kids from being shot by men with guns acting on behalf of dangerous zealots inflamed with pseudoscientific beliefs. 

Republicans crash the economy by sending goons to confiscate homes, autos, bank accounts, brokerage accounts, life savings, aircraft and equipment. This causes money to disappear from the fractional-reserve banking system, and brings liquidity crunches, bankruptcies, stock crashes, recessions and unemployment. It also undermines the value of private retirement accounts. 

Democrats help Republicans do all of the above harm to the economy, and also to casually murder young people–especially young brown people–while importing the failed communist and national socialist policies that impoverish and kill people wherever they gain a foothold. Democrat-controlled cities resemble Venezuela and Cuba, Angola, Bangladesh, Mozambique, Syria and Togo. Democrat efforts to make demonize electric power and man industry are no less superstitious than Republican coercive exorcism of plant leaves as avatars of Satan. Helping either gang of looters is self-destructive and wrong. Setting them an example, and letting them lose by ignoring it is a teaching experience. 

The 2020 Republican and Democrat platforms STILL call for men with guns to rob, jail and shoot kids over plant leaves. 

Here are the Libertarian vote share percentages for the 2000, 2004, 2008, 2012 and 2016 elections now increasing at a slope of 1.2 or 50 degrees. This logistic replacement curve indicates we are on track to secure eleven million votes this presidential election. This will also upset many down-ballot races by upending the more violent candidates in favor of less cruel, better-educated and less fanatical replacement officeholders.

Sue for Peace!

Spoiler vote clout

A Klanboy and His Dog, 1960

The abject terror with which both halves of the force-initiating kleptocracy now face each other is an opportunity not to be missed.(link) In one fell swoop, every voter with any capacity for independent thought can multiply a single ballot’s clout into a Sword of Damocles.(link) The beautiful part is that each libertarian spoiler vote’s sword can, with Solomonic impassivity, force all champions of the initiation of force in violation of individual rights to sue for peace by changing their platform demands and repealing their victimless “crime” laws.(link) Why not make the looters Sue for Peace on Drugs?

Hockey stick for Libertarians!

Libertarian vote share model predicts 9.2 million presidential LP votes in 2020.

Republican Richard Nixon added a War on Drugs to the War on the Vietnamese, the War on Poverty and the War on Women. Nixon’s Moral Majority televangelism deftly purchased the cooperation of the looter media via the Nixon Anti-Libertarian Law, then co-opted George Wallace’s Ku-Klux Kollectivist demands and parlayed them into the Republican Gentlemen’s Agreement to break up the Solid South.(link)

Teddy the Chappaquiddick Quitter

Democrats STILL favored Wallace’s racial collectivism in 1974!

By this mechanism (and some gunfire), Eugenic pseudoscience again became law and prisons filled with nonviolent hippies, black and brown folks, all thanks to the transubstantiation of victimless trade into imaginary crime.(link) Pregnant women nevertheless managed to escape religious fascism’s trap thanks to the Supreme Court’s adoption of a 1972 Libertarian plank into its Roe v. Wade decision.(link)

Democratic party communists promptly adopted the “War on X” concept in more garbled terms. “No Justice, No Peace” is another demand to surrender to communism no different from the “Freeze” movement disemboweled by the Second Amendment. “Just say No” (or be arrested) was a Biden favorite. “Black Lives Matter” is the same appeal to racial collectivism as “Saving American Lives” is an exploit of nationalism used to mask the identities of government-backed killers.

Change accelerates with integrity

Logistics replacement curves describe choices that change(link)

But now that BOTH the GOP and Dems favor men with guns shooting kids over plant leaves, and asset-forfeiture confiscations of homes, vehicles and bank accounts of innocent people, the stupidest thing anyone can do is vote for either party’s candidates. Republican asset-forfeiture as exorcism of Satan will ruin the economy even faster than the creeping communism favored by the Dems.(link) After that it guarantees they will win the post-Crash elections just as Dems won from 1932 to 1948. 

Fascist altruism or communist altruism?

This false alternative happened when Germans abandoned freedom

Listen to what they say about each other and it hasn’t changed. For the last eleven campaigns both looter parties have struggled to ignore the Libertarian party and sworn the other would destroy America.(link) Suckers and cowards repeat this endlessly–even fake libertarians.(link) Vote for the superstitious initiation of force to save us from the communist atheist initiation of force was what Von Mises, among others, intimated to help elect Hitler.(link) A looter vote says only that another cowardly 0.00000007% of Americans wants to be coerced toward fascism or communism. A Libertarian spoiler vote says 20 times louder: sever that hand from the till! Let the chips fall where they may–I will settle for nothing less than freedom from coercion and full individual rights!(link)

Why be a coward or a sucker when by having some integrity you make twenty times the difference for yourself and your loved ones? Winning is improving your lot. Losing is surrendering to the machine! Make a real choice.
