The US Presidential Candidates’ Declaration of Dependence and Sacrifice

I agree 100% that self-published books are the only way for serious authors to publish in the current USA. I have two real, offset books out and three self-published. The one is a history book -- the others are attempts at serious creative "idea" works.

But on the content of your work Reason Reigns -- that "all people" should have the Constitional right to "pursue happiness" . . . Well, that's another kettle of fish. My own opinion is that individual freedom is destroying the American Empire. Too many people misunderstand the concept as having the legal right to steal less aggressive people blind because money makes them happy. We philosophers call it unbridaled greed. Frankly, you just can't give freedom to these priviledged people -- who have no conscience, no morals and no compassion -- and no ambition other than con other people without consequences.

So what's the answer? The French took care of a similar problem in 1792. Let's hope it doesn't come to that. There must be another answer than Madam La Guilletine. Though she is a little rusty and thirsty . . . .
Individual freedom is a spiritual state, not a material state. You don't have to serve the state if you don't want to. You don't have to serve mankind. You don't have to serve a god. But that doesn't mean you can serve yourself!

Why is suddenly "uncool" for me to believe in individual honor and integrity?

What would make me happy, old graybeard philosopher that I am? Bailing out the corrupt banks and corporations on the condition that everyone working in an executive position be fired and prosecuted. That's for the rich cats sticking it to us. As for the thugs and hoods -- put tanks on the streets!

I remain yours -- America's most ignored and despised underground philosopher, The Fisher King.

The irony in Obama's comments are that he hasn't done anything to serve or sacrifice for this nation.

Bringing about facts is key here!
