Letting the looters vote on who's for lunch
Las Vegas Review-Journal ^ | 05 july 09 | Vin Suprynowicz

Posted on 07/05/2009 4:52:12 AM PDT by rellimpank

A recent column on the euphemisms used by proponents of illegal-immigrant amnesty brought some irate buzzing from all seven members of the Young Anarchists' League.

As near as I can figure, I'm "not allowed" to call for the enforcement of current immigration laws -- or possibly of any laws, even those few (like the immigration laws) enacted within the powers delegated to Congress under the Constitution -- because any such enforcement of the law amounts to some kind of "collectivist police state fascism" against people who have "not initiated force or fraud."

I'm not sure how you cut through a border fence without "initiating force," or how you rent an apartment, register a car and go to work every day using someone else's Social Security number without "initiating fraud."

I'm further "not allowed" to cite the cost to taxpayers of illegal alien trespassers swarming our public schools and hospitals, lest I be accused of somehow "supporting" tax subsidies for schools and hospitals.

As it so happens, as a libertarian (not an anarchist) I do stand proudly and publicly against tax subsidies for schools and hospitals. People should pay their own way, and seek private charity if unable to do so. This would bring down costs for everyone. But that's not enough for my young anarchist friends. Instead, I am apparently obliged to pretend these current, swelling tax burdens do not exist.

It’s simple. More and more everyday I realize that Obama has one goal, to deplete and take America down. By letting all the illegals become legal, we would immediately be forced to give them all the bennies of being an American and further crippling the economy.

Obama is forcing things through that is KNOWN to crush any economic regrowth, but that is his plan I believe.

Obama must step down. He is not of this country. He is a fake and a fraud.

I don’t think Vin would disagree with you on that.

Wouldn’t the “League” in “Younh Anarchists’ League imply some sort of formal organization?

Which would be anathema to a REAL anarchist?
