Whenever I hear common terms thrown around the political arena, the definition goes into one ear and comes out the other as a different meaning. The titles are meant to be intentionally misleading. It’s better to treat these words and phrases like a mathematical function, f(x). Luckily, I’m here to help decipher some of these popular euphemisms. Plug in your favorite definitions to find out their true meanings! A law = A bill passed by politicians paid for and written by special interest groups Bipartisan support = The political class agreeing on the means of exploiting the taxpaying class Checks and balances = Government auditing and condoning its own actions Climate change = An environmental ruse by which antiliberal policies are advocated Countercyclical measures = Spending money, usually by inflation, to prolong a depression Democrat = See “Republican” Depression = The exposition of government-induced clustering of errors in the economy Extending credit = Incurring more debt than private lenders would give with their own money Fair share = Guilt-tripping taxpayers into giving the State more money Federal Reserve = A private bank advancing the interests of its sole partner, the government Foreign aid = The poor of a rich country gifting purchasing power to the rich of poor countries Elections = The process by which the citizens vote for and accept tyranny, even for those that abstain from voting that do not wish to be ruled over Government-funded = Taxpayer-funded Inflation = Taxation without legislation; robbing the holders of money of their purchasing power Income tax = Taxes levied to fulfill social justice schemes License = Asking for the government’s permission to provide a service Military intervention = Forcefully asserting our value judgment onto other sovereign nations Monopoly = Government privilege enforced by the threat of physical violence News = Government-induced hysteria to distract you from the unconstitutional actions of government Police = Agents hired to protect the State’s interests Politicians = Parasites procuring the force of government to advance their own interests Property tax = Rent paid for your property lease from the government Public school = Government indoctrination centers Quantitative Easing = Printing money to transfer wealth from the people to the government Republican = See “Democrat” Social justice = A subsidy; expropriating the property of one group to subsidize the living of another group Social Security = Intergenerational Ponzi scheme enforced by the threat of physical violence Tax loopholes = The last remnants of a free society Tax return = A fractional return of your earnings that was forcefully taken from you throughout the year Taxation = Legal theft enforced by threat of physical violence to maintain the coercive body of government The State = That great fiction by which everyone tries to live at the expense of everyone else Union = A labor group granted government privileges and exemptions that are not afforded to other workers War = A mean by which politicians use to help achieve their ends War on drugs = An excuse to profile any individual as a means of generating additional revenue for the state War on terror = Fighting the terrorists of today that were created by the American funding of yesterday
