13 Critical Issues You Are Forbidden From Voting On

The voting privileges granted by the political class during the civil rights movement have pacified nearly every American.  It’s a shame as to this day the very act of casting your ballot on meaningful issues is actively suppressed in the United States. 

 Here are 13 critical issues you are forbidden from voting on:

1. Which foreign lands the U.S. military should occupy
2. Taxpayer bailouts for the banks 
3. The definition of “torture”
4. Interest rates and monetary policy of the Federal Reserve
5. Military grade weapons supplied to your local police employees
6. TSA screening procedure at the airports
7. Nuclear weapons production, storage locations and usage
8. Number of field agents employed by the FBI
9. Medicare tax rates
10. The Supreme Court justices
11. Limits to NSA spying
12. Who is sentenced to death by drone strike
13. The enforcement of the “Bill of Rights”  

Clearly citizens of the United States of America were never given the vote. 

It’s been five decades since the last voting rights movement in America and no one has thought to ask “On What are we getting the right to vote”?

State of Maine Interfering with Law

Obey the Black Robes?

A former lawyer for O.J. Simpson and Patty Hearst has been denied the "privilege" of practicing law.  This decision was handed down by people calling themselves "Maine Supreme Court".

These "court" people seem to believe that they can deny another human being from practicing law.

Regardless of the edicts passed down from on high, the right of residents in Maine to voluntarily enter into contracts with lawyer F. Lee Bailey super cedes the "courts" ruling.

The Government wants you to believe in the myth that they are "Supreme" and they create "law".  In reality law existed long before any state and currently exists in spite of interference by the state.

From Don Boudreaux and Russ Roberts:

Legislation is consciously designed rules, enforced with threat of force.

Law is emergent patterns of behavior that is incorporated into people's expectations.

The bottom line is that Bailey or any of his potential clients have no obligation to obey the commands of those who wear black robes and sit on elevated benches.

"By the Authority Vested in Me by This Robe"

What's In a Robe?

Hilary Clinton appears to have answered "yes" to my poll "Do Black Robes Grant Authority?".  

Last week she said ""With the rate the Supreme Court is going, there will only be three or four people in the whole country that have to finance our entire political system by the time they are done".

Do Black Robes Grant Authority?

Five of the 317,000,000 people living in 'these United States' have decided what's best for the rest of us.  Adam Liptak at The New York Times tells us the decision made by these five people will likely lead to more money in politics.

Regardless of the validity of this prediction or the various problems caused by "money in politics" there is a major omission made by the Times and other outcast media outlets.  This is the simple fact that 317,000,000 people do not have to obey the commands of 5.

Liptak and others would like to have you believe the opposite.  They claim that since these five people are wearing black robes and sitting in nice buildings that their opinion is more important than yours.

Is it?
