Mark Skousen Quote

“Here in America, government began as a tool to assure freedom. It gradually turned into a hideously expensive political toy designed to redistribute your wealth and control most aspects of your business and private life.”

Speaking of government, as we approach the election process we are left with the typical selections. What we need is a role model of moral and developmental guidance. We don't need the typical moral deviates leading us to regression and degradation as the two party choices offer us. Human being aspire to put our past errors behind and more forward into moral ascendency, being better than before, growing, maturing into more resilient and refined living organism.

Correction: move forward into moral ascendency. This Skousen appears to believe slave ownership is an assistance to freedom implementation, quite embarrassingly  hypocritical, but a racist lacks scope, depth and insight as this quote clearly reflects in its purely selfish self serving manner.

I want to say Mr. Skousen that it is so difficult for a feeling human being like myself, that an unfeeling creature like you obvious remain, could possibly associate an organization that began with enslaved human beings had the even the most  remote conceptualization of the meaning of freedom. This country was born in slavery and we have a lot to redeem and replacing these two embarrassments like Trump and Harris with an honorable leader would be the place to start.
