“The US Constitution: a solution to a problem that didn’t exist, in order to create more problems, with more solutions, that create problems … recursion … do this for about 200 years.” – Dr. Freckles

I don’t think alcohol is good or bad.
I don’t think cigarettes are good or bad.
I don’t think guns or chainsaws or sticks of dynamite are good or bad.

It creates MORE STATE RELIGIONS …
And ties their ideology to whomever is tyrant TODAY.
How can we?
“How can we collect taxes if we don’t raise money from taxes?” – Dr. Freckles

If Democracy worked …
“If democracy actually worked? – it would be like the Krell from ‘Forbidden Planet’, except it would take more than one night because government ain’t that fucking efficient.” – Dr. Freckles
