While voting with your feet seems to be the popular thing to do, Sometimes you jump from the frying pan into the fire. My wife and I left SoCal in 2002. After serving as a peace officer there for 30+ years, we wanted to get out before we had to shoot our way out. Based on health and family considerations, we settled in a small, blue-collar backwater on the Southern Oregon coast. It was not too long after we got here that I realized I was in a state so "Blue" it was purple. Oregon is controlled by the liberals, deviates, and the "gimme-my-freebies" crowd which populate the I-5 corridor from Eugene, north to the state line. The situation is a constant battle at the ballot box to keep these tax termites out of my wallet. Even though the southern areas of this state are redneck and conservative, by-and-large, we are steadily getting disenfranchised by the collectivist PTB and their vote-by-mail strategy. My only consolation is our little enclave is loaded with like-minded patriots, and the Peoples' Democratic Socialist Republic of Oregon is still a 2nd Amendment-friendly state. We are now both too old and ill for Montana or North Dakota.
As usual, a brilliant and uncompromising statement of the unvarnished truth.
Those of you who don't like Takuan for various reasons, just aren't accepting reality.
Last time out, Part Three, there were actually cries of "racism!" I expect them here as well.
Really?

He uses hyperbole, metaphor and other (often stunning, even lyrical) forms of shorthand and emphasis to make his points but, if he didn't, it would take a book to express. Read the foot notes and follow the links (which enlarge and support the broad strokes) before leaping to support your own conclusions/agenda/faint hopes.

Ya can't make this stuff up.
Why would white-majority collectivism in Montana produce different results than white-majority collectivism in Wisconsin? The white-majority blue collar non-union working class mostly wants lots of government intervention, to protect their occupations from competition. California ex-pats move to Nevada in disgust at the disfunction, then agitate to set the same policies in Nevada that didn't work in California.
This article might as well be asking to 'restore the constitution', without examining why the structures created by the constitution do not enforce compliance with the constitution.
