What if Epstein is About Something Worse?

*** begin quote ***
As has been observed, if voting constituted a meaningful threat to politicians it would not be allowed. Stalin allowed people to vote. It was meaningless then. It is meaningless now – because your vote to be left alone is meaningless. It will only have meaning when your right to be left alone cannot be voted away. And that will only happen when people – most people, at least – decide they do not want to be gangsters themselves. This will take some soul searching. They will have to come face-to-face with the ugliness many – most of them – wish to pretend they’re not part of. The ugliness of violence. Of taking what is not theirs – by voting to have someone else threaten other people with violence to get what isn’t theirs.

“If voting made any difference they wouldn’t let us do it.” — Emma Goldman ― often incorrectly attributed to American humorist Mark Twain ― but very very true imho!
Walter Block’s Libertarian Voting Rule is that in close races you vote for the major party candidate that is less evil. In races that aren’t close, you cast a protest vote for the Libertarian Party candidate. https://buff.ly/2GFxxPl
I’m beginning to think that all those who refuse to vote have the correct strategy.
Not that, by ignoring it, the gang that calls itself Gooferment will just go away.
BUT, (and there is always a BIG butt), they can never ever claim a “mandate” since half the population just stays home.
I think that the Walter Block strategy, that I’ve been following, isn’t getting me a better life. If anything, it’s getting worse.
Short of another Civil War, I don’t see how we are going to get back to the Dead Old White Guys’ vision of liberty. Sound money, no taxes, and rugged individualism.
No robbing Peter to bribe Paul to vote.
Argh!
