If people could be responsible for themselves, no government would be necessary.

If people require government to be responsible for them, they will be ruled by those made responsible.

You cannot elect a government to be responsible for the people, while the people retain their authority. That is why democracy is a joke, and why it can only be maintained via deceit and illusion.

Responsibility and authority go together. To sever the two is to invite destruction and tyranny in equal measure.

Seeing multiple train derailments happening all over the country makes me think that using the government to fuck over railway workers and force them to work without paid time off might have been something of a mistake.

(Sorry about the watermark but we're on a tight budget here at bagel studios.)

I'm in the market for a home office detached media storage unit after one of my SSDs failed.

I'm considering the Buffalo Linkstation 12TB unit for $450. I'm not familiar with the brand though. I don't know if there are better options.
