Freedom... And Our The State

Independence Day, which we Indians (and Pakistanis, too) have just "celebrated," was the climax of what the official history books call "The Freedom Struggle."


But the people who won this Freedom Struggle immediately went on to establish a "State At The Commanding Heights of The Economy."


And that is Freedom?


The most PRACTICAL DEFINITION OF FREEDOM is this:

THE ABSENCE OF STATE INTERFERENCE IN ONE'S LIFE

Nehru went The Other Way.


Look at it this way:


The Market is Liberty - and also Peace, Prosperity, Technology, and so much more, including Civilisation itself...


The State is just NAKED FORCE: The State Police, the Sales Tax, the Income Tax...


Socialists worship NAKED FORCE: which is, The State. They worship their Deity in Nude Elly. They do NOT know even the MEANING of the precious word, "Freedom."


This is the first of a series of posts that will go under the label, "Second Republic." The opening posts will just be basic remarks - such as the one today.


We need to realise that Freedom is NOT The State. The State is the very NEGATION of Freedom. This is a Huge Error on the part of that Generation. Wonder what they smoked? Nehru smoked cigarettes, alright.

The Lesson of the Day is that we need: 

A Constitution of Liberty & Property.

Tomorrow, I will proceed to discuss the basic geographical units that will comprise this polity - the physical cities and towns, both great and small, and that "Civil Government" for these cities and towns must be looked upon as something poles apart from the Vision of The State in Nude Elly. These Civil Governments in Each City and Town will be with Their Noses On The Ground. 


There is No Other Way To FIX This Rotten System.
