George Rebane

A hit to free market capitalism, the most successful way of organizing a social order, that has provided the highest quality of life by lifting billions out of poverty and disease over the last two centuries, even when practiced imperfectly and without the awareness of most people who enjoy its blessings.  And due to its magnificent history denied, today capitalism teeters on the brink of being abandoned by masses readily convinced of getting more free stuff and a better life under collectivism; all in spite of any supporting evidence.  Check it out with your local Democrat.

Everyone will vote, no exceptions.  A hit to those of us who know that EVERYONE franchised to vote, will cast a vote whether they like it or not, and whether they know it or not.  Every voter has two choices – vote your own preferences with a ballot, or don’t and vote for the other side.  Since every unanswered vote actually does vote for the other side, your vote will count with or without your ballot.  No qualified voter in a democracy can ever sit out an election. Whatever your choice, it will always impact for you or against you.  And know that you have also voted in every bygone election, and you will vote again next Tuesday.
