				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Having not read Frederick Hayek since 1970 or so, it was a thrill to receive an abridged edition of &#8220;The Road to Serfdom&#8221; from the Heritage Foundation.  </p>
<p>&#8220;The Road to Serfdom&#8221; deserves the undivided attention of the reader.  In a moment of indulgence time was set aside to dedicate myself to the effort, just before nap time of course.  Being an undisciplined sort, rather than starting at the beginning, I allow fate to show me what it wants me most to see.   </p>
<p>The booklet opens itself to the following:</p>
<p>	&#8220;Individualism, in contrast to socialism and all other forms of totalitarianism, is based on the respect of Christianity for the individual and the belief that is desirable that men should be free to develop their own individual gifts and bents.  This philosophy, first fully developed during the Renaissance, grew and spread to what we now know as Western Civilization.  The general development of social development was one of freeing the individual from the ties which bound him in feudal society.&#8221;  </p>
<p>In recent years we have witnessed a brazen attempt by the powers of socialism to infect and weaken the Bill of Rights and thus our individual God given freedoms.  The ties that increasingly bind man in slavery to a feudal society are often tightened around his neck with his permission, a permission that once given is near impossible to rescind.    The call for abandoning your freedom&#8217;s for &#8220;the greater good&#8221; is in actuality a call to abandon liberty for a new nationalism, in this case socialism, the precursor to fascism and replacement for faith.  </p>
<p>As Hayek further states:</p>
<p>	&#8220;They do not realize that democratic socialism, the great utopia of recent generations is not only unachievable &#8212; but produces something utterly different &#8212; the destruction of freedom itself.&#8221;</p>
<p>If you loosen the chains of your pet they may run off but he will also be free to protect you and care for you.  Risk is necessary in order to truly live.  God blessed us with the opportunity to make our living worthy of his creation.</p>
<p>God created man, not government.  Life without bureaucrats may be considered by the haughty to be tarnished, but at least the lives will be our own. </p>

<p><strong>How The Grunches Stole Our Lunches</strong></p>
<p>Send out an alert to all the people in this nation!<br />
The talking head grunches are on every TV station.</p>
<p>What is a grunch, you ask fast in bunches.<br />
A grunch is a grinch who steals other people’s lunches.</p>
<p>Now grunches operate on a strange shared belief<br />
That because taxing is legal it doesn’t make them a thief.<br />
Grunches, after all, work in great masses<br />
Taking money out of pockets on other peoples asses.<br />
Most grunches work in buildings, like large concrete caves.<br />
These grunches crunch numbers and are drone-like mind slaves.</p>
<p>‘Where do grunches come from?’ Is the next thing you ask.<br />
I’ll tell you my friends; I’m up to the task.</p>
<p>Across this great nation is a thing called an –ism.<br />
It is in every mind, and that –ism is a schism.<br />
A schism is a crack between this way and that.<br />
A wide, deep divide, though some think it’s flat.</p>
<p>On one side industry and independence are praised;<br />
A side easy to choose, if this is how you are raised.<br />
But on the other side of the educational crack,<br />
They believe all has been taken and they want to take back.<br />
Hard work, in the past, was done by others long gone<br />
So it is acceptable to pillage.  How could that be wrong?<br />
The system is rigged against some, or so they think<br />
The rich owe their fair share, when others live on the brink<br />
Of an abyss that leads to the poor’s self-destruction.<br />
So they demand their free stuff. (This is their deduction.)</p>
<p>They have named the two sides of this huge national schism;<br />
The left side is Social- and the right, Capitalism.<br />
History teaches that the two sides never can meet,<br />
Though wonks try to build bridges and tunnels beneath.</p>
<p>Our current Big G grunch was raised on the social side<br />
Of the schism that delineates our countries divide.</p>
<p>Now Big Grunch sat in the loftiest seat of them all,<br />
And stared out his window, looking down at the small<br />
Villages and towns across this vast nation.<br />
‘How,’ he pondered daily, ‘do I use regulation?<br />
Why I’ll grow the bureaucracy, this is what I’ll do…<br />
And the officials will praise it for they’ll benefit too!’</p>
<p>And Big Grunch took to lying and selling his fare.<br />
He packaged the growth and called it ‘Grunchcare’.</p>
<p>“Why without the impartial fairness of government grunches,<br />
How else can you taste the same fare as the rich people’s lunches?”</p>
<p>And the people on his side of the national schism,<br />
Cheered his eloquent words and celebrated his wisdom.</p>
<p>But on the other side, where they produce for a living,<br />
People quaked in their boots, for the grunches were giving<br />
The revenue away to people who were cut<br />
Out of the bounty, which the grunches referred to as ‘glut’.</p>
<p>For when profits that are used to grow an economy are called glut<br />
Everyone suffers. The entire system gets stuck in a rut<br />
On the road to success paved with hard work and dreams.<br />
Without capitalists producing, everyone screams<br />
As their options disappear, like thieves in the night<br />
Taking with them all the goods we produced at twilight.</p>
<p>And the grunches, you see, charge a handling fee,<br />
For processing the tax dollars isn’t quite free.<br />
Regulate, collect, and regulate some more,<br />
That’s what government grunches are for.<br />
‘Did you earn something here?  We demand our cut!<br />
And you will also be taxed when you spend all your glut!’<br />
And as the dollars filter through grunch government coffers<br />
The pennies disappear, but no grunches will proffer<br />
An exact accounting of every cent spent.<br />
Government, you see, is a very big tent.<br />
Grants go to cronies for services rendered;<br />
Forget about accounting when no goods are tendered!</p>
<p>Fast forward to now, with our credit downgraded,<br />
Our future very bleak and our outlook quite jaded.</p>
<p>From great cavernous halls, where their heels echoed and clicked,<br />
The grunches stood together, with hair hairsprayed and slicked,<br />
And side by side they looked into the cameras and lied,<br />
And fingers-crossed stated that they dutifully tried<br />
To come up with a solution for everyone, but the best<br />
Compromise was to give Big Grunch’s suggestions a test.<br />
They lied about hard work and negotiations galore,<br />
They lied on and on, as they have always lied before.</p>
<p>Soon the taxes will go up and revenue will dip,<br />
And the economy will quickly teeter over the cliff.<br />
What money we have will start getting funny<br />
For it will take nearly a bushel to buy a small jar of honey.<br />
And as the taxes disappear into the caverns of the swamp<br />
The Big Grunch will declare, with all circumstance and pomp.<br />
That more caverns for grunches will have to be built &#8211; shovel ready,<br />
For management of grunch dollars should always be steady<br />
Under the direction of smarter than smart government grunches,</p>
<p>And that, my dear friends, is how we lose all of our lunches.</p>
