“The purpose of all government should be the protection of personal liberty for each and every one of us.”

Funny to see Mayor Giuliani lick his lips at the opportunity to cut off the message of liberty.  Too much liberty for you, eh, Mayor? 

Liberty Costs Less

Aggression and forced redistribution of wealth have nothing to do with the great religions of the world.  

Transcript of Ron Paul's Farewell Address to Congress on November 14, 2012.  

Everyone claims support for freedom.  But too often it’s for one’s own freedoms and not for others.  Too many believe there must be limits on freedom.  They argue that freedom must be directed and managed to achieve fairness and equality, thus making it acceptable to curtail through force certain liberties.  Some decide what and whose freedoms are to be limited.  These are the politicians whose goal in life is power.  Their success depends on gaining support from special interests.  

Why do so many in the government

Why did the big banks and

14:05  Tragically, our government engages in preemptive war, otherwise known as aggression with no complaints from the American people.  

14:15  The drone warfare we are pursuing worldwide is destined to end badly for us as the hatred builds for the innocents' lives lost and the international laws flaunted. 

14:26  Once we are financially weakened and militarily challenged, there will be a lot of resentment thrown our way.  It's now the law of the land that the military can arrest American citizens.  

15:16  Excessive government has been such a mess, it prompts many questions.  Why are sick people, who use medical marijuana, put in prison? 

16:38  Why haven’t we given up on the drug wars since it’s an obvious failure and violated the people’s rights?  Has nobody noticed how authorities can’t even keep drugs out of the prisons?  How can making our entire society a prison solve the problem?

16:56  Why do we sacrifice so much getting unnecessarily involved in border disputes and civil strife around the world and ignore the root cause of the most dangerous, deadly border in the world: the one between Mexico and the United States? 

18:15  Why is patriotism thought to be blind loyalty to the government and the politicians who run it, rather than loyalty to the principles of liberty and support for the people?

Farmageddon: The Truth About the Food and Dairy Industry

Packers, slaughterhouses, and the feedlots have the money; and that's who controls the beef industry and USDA.  A whole revolving door, from the pharmaceutical and the beef industry to the USDA and get legislation passed on their pet projects.  USDA spends a million dollars plus monitoring small farmers.

Linda Detwiler is the USDA's spy who goes out onto small farms and harasses Americans.  Way to go, Linda!  Here is a book covering the mad sheep fiasco.

Several farmers in this documentary make the excellent point that food grown on a small farm allows a consumers to know where the food they consume comes from.  So if anything does go wrong, the consumer can contact that particular farmer.  Contrast that scenario with food grown at a large agri-farmer in several different states.  It's much more difficult to find the source of bad food through large farms.  I remember that in 2006 when there was the spinach scare in California that took over a week to locate the source of the tainted crop.

Rawesome Foods in Venice, CA has been "raided" a few times in the past 3 to 5 years.  Because it is a membership co-op, it is open only 2 days a week, Wednesdays, 12-8, and Saturdays, 9-4.  Watch this:

It is interesting to learn who greenlights the warrants and on whose behalf. You have the LA County District Attorney's Office, LA County Police, and the LA County Sheriff's Department. That's quite an expenditure of law enforcement to take down a tiny, contracted farm in Ventura County. Didn't know that LA County has jurisdiction over Ventura County.  LA Building & Safety is threatening to shut down Rawesome Foods because of "illegal" structures.
