National Tea Party · July 3, 2009

Cap and Trade? Listen, Bamster: we swear
by our soil, our water, our air,
that our patience has snapped.
If you will have us capped,
you can bet: we will trade you — right there.

Desperation is the raw material of drastic change.
William S. Burroughs
The Western Lands (1987)

The idea that “the public interest” supersedes
private interests and rights can have but one meaning:
that the interests and rights of some individuals
take precedence over the interests and rights of others.
Ayn Rand
The Pull Peddlers (1966)
