A most delightful, insightful post from my friend Ron from over at
TOTUS. He talks about wealth redistribution, public health and all
things the utopiatards want to do for us. I have the entire post here
as it not very long. Enjoy.
Four headed Hydra
Ron Russell TOTUS
Wealth redistribution is destructive in many ways, but the worst is the under-mining of a basic American principle---the right to work and to keep the fruits of your labor. Recently I got to thinking about all the rights we have lost over the years in the name of public safety and the list is indeed long. And now a new snake is rearing it's ugly head and "public safety" and "wealth redistribution" are no longer alone. The new kid on the block is "public health" and if anything it will be more vicious. Some groups have been suffering the abuses of this monster for a number of years, mainly those who smoke---the tax abuses imposed on this minority are staggering and punitive. And now this new administration with its Keynesian Economics is getting ready to turn this monster on other groups seeing little resistance to the abusive taxes leveled on smokers. They have alcohol, sugar, soft drinks, snack foods and many other things in their sights and are already planning how to spend the new revenues that will be raised. And a fourth snake is beginning to show itself, migrating from the west coast and quickly spreading eastward. This new menace is called "Protective Environmentalism", this is perhaps the most dangerous, for its venom can infect the entire populous. Unlike "public health" it doesn't just seek-out the over-weight, the smoker, the drinker, the teenager with his soft drink, this new menace has a voracious appetite consuming everything in its path--liberty, freedom and individualism. This four-headed Hydra is seeking to destroy our freedoms under the guise of, "Wealth Redistribution", "Public Safety", "Public Health", and "Protective Environmentalism" and it must be destroyed.

Recently in the Bay State the phrase "People's Seat" was used by the winner---it was the line heard round the world. I often have refrained from using "peoples this or that" because the communist stole it from us many years ago, but Scott gave it a new meaning. When the word "people's" is used by the left it has one meaning---the collective, but when used by the right in this case it refers to an anti-elitest popularism. When one uses such terms as "people's" or "public" one should always be aware that the meaning in subject to the interpretation of the reader.
Thanks for the H/T.
