Joseph Sobran Quote

"People who create things nowadays can expect to be prosecuted by highly moralistic people who are incapable of creating anything. There is no way to measure the chilling effect on innovation that results from the threats of taxation, regulation and prosecution against anything that succeeds. We’ll never know how many ideas our government has aborted in the name protecting us."

Moralists do not persecute, and are the only individuals who create for maintenance and promotion of life.  -- Fredrick William Sillik, Anytown      1
WE MOVED forward to make lives better and more convenient in the USA for more than 200 years. Now politicians are forcing people to move backwards 200 years to inconvenience the people, while improving the lives of the politicians. Sorta like a new kind of slavery without that title. We are learning everyday the ideas our government has for us...but it appears mostly to protect them and the power they have taken from sleepy voters.  -- abby      1
As a highly moralistic person, what do you create?  Just curious as to what you produce, not something you merely 'promote' or have appropriated from the producer to 'maintain.'  -- E Archer, NYC
Get Woke, Go Broke.  -- E Archer, NYC
Mr Archer, NYC, Good to hear from you once again. The moralists Socialist produces one basic product the human being. All your basic "products" are inhibitors to that product. Your sports industries, automobile industries, toy industries, medical industries, religion industries, sex industries, drug industries, even your entertainment industries are in the way of the authentic progressive human being. While the boys and girls produce the toys, the human produces human beings.  The moralists produces the most advanced product that we understand the voice of nature, the human being. Thanks for your question.  -- Fredrick William Sillik, Anytown
In addition, Mr Archer: What your arrangement produces is a sub-human closely akin to what you would call an automaton. You introduce programed instructions into the conventional creature and they unquestionably respond. Sorry to say none of you conventional creatures can effectively message exchange. Again thanks for your question.  -- Fredrick William Sillik, Anytown
Another item Mr Archer: Your criminal disposition has led you to corrupt the language to avoid detection or prosecution. In my own case, conventional efforts have caused sincere polite manners to be  turned onto something sick.  -- Fredrick William Sillik, Anytown
Mr Archer: I once tried to pass a fellow in a business and delivered the appropriate excuse me and the degenerate followed me to the restroom. I can guess your next scheme for me. I am a target for childish, not say evil, schemes everyday. When you are the only law respecting individual on the planet, your reputation is very prevalent.  Once again, thanks for the question.  -- Fredrick William Sillik, Anytown
Mr Archer: The stage has set the contenders  you the 911, coronavirus "producers," maintaining schemers versus me the visionary human being who visualizes a world of functional, moral adults preparing the universe for life to prevail. Socialism is vision of social abilities to create.  -- Fredrick William Sillik, Anytown
