“And now, when they arrive in Utah (or Texas, or Arizona, or wherever they run to) they immediately try to establish the same failed leviathan state they fled. Thus the cancer of California spreads.”

I have to say the above quote is so very true. After the 88 earthquake, the exodus to the pacific northwest was on and these people came in force. When they arrived they wanted to fix it up just like the place that had been ruined with well intentioned social largesse. Rather than assimilate into a better civic environment that was not dysfunctional, they tirelessly yearned to recreate all that was comfortable and awful from their previous surroundings. The road to hell is paved with good intentions and it happens one little compromise at a time. We gave into the twisted logic of the do-gooders without ever taking an honest realistic look at what was really the actual outcome intended. The civic aspirations of these folks were myopic and juvenile at best. I find more and more people in this mindset react to problems with a willingness to impose a new rule on yet more people without regard to the big picture. Those who aspire to “do something” in response to the ills of society err badly. Aspiring to do something versus aspiring to do the correct are not the same thing. Not even remotely. Some feel those who do these “somethings” are worthy of praise and adulation. I say not so! Endeavoring to do anything but that which produces the correct result is nothing more than wasted effort. “Doing something” is really nothing more than a dressed up version of what most of us call failure. Do-goodism taken to its logical conclusion offers nothing more than an expansive tapestry of petty tyrannies. Pay close attention because this is where we are headed folks.
