Ask "Who Will Enslave Me Less?"

As I walked into the building to vote last week, I asked a black man standing outside, "Who will the lesser slavemaster?"
"Slavemaster?"
"Yes, who will take the less money from me through taxes and the less freedom from me through laws?"
He didn't know what to say. After I finished voting for candidates who will be the least slavemasters of the bunch, I started admiring what I had said. The black man couldn't tell me which way to vote party-wise, and he could not peg me as just another damn Republican. The standard I was using transcended politics, and that in itself gave me a good, clean feeling. So my admonition from this little epiphany at the voting place is to judge politicians on the basis of who will enslave you the least, meaning who will take away through taxes the least of your money, and who will take away through laws the least of your freedom. In other words, which candidate will be the least damaging to you? Isn't that the most adult way to view politicians ? For those people who want to use politicians to enslave other people but not them and thus hope to get other people's money, let me say this:
If you will grow up, get married and both of you hold a job, you have an excellent chance of accruing money yourself and not depending upon the government to rob others to give to you. Also, if you get married, have a stable marriage and emphasize education to your children, they have an excellent chance of going to college and getting good jobs and maybe making you a part of their better life. But if you vote partial-slavers into office who want to rob "the rich" to give to you, you are going to ruin the economy, because no one wants to work for nothing, and everyone is going to get poorer and there will be no hope for a better future for anyone but the partial-slavers who will continue to ride high and party hearty. Just look at Obama, the millionaire, being a hypocrite by keeping his millions while he disses "the rich" and takes millionaire vacations one after another after another. There's no hope in that liar. Remember, who is the candidate that will enslave you the least? peternickerson12@yahoo.com
