They always seem to use race as a excuse for their illegal actions.

For anyone who doesn't have an epoch times account (so they can't just close the paywall and read it for free):

Arizona election laws said no ballot harvesting and no out-of-precinct voting.

The left circumvented those laws using the regulators or the courts or whatever so they could cheat. But the laws were always in place, so they were broken.

A couple of cases going through the courts about it, got combined and are going to the supreme court together pretty soon.

At first, the lower courts were upholding Arizona's laws. But then the appeals court flipped positions and said the laws are discriminatory, so now it's going to the supreme court.

The Biden administration isn't intervening, but they are taking a "more aggressive stance" on those election integrity laws "being discriminatory" going forward.

How are the 5 losers that down-voted? They obviously don't keep up with the headlines!

The great virtue of a free market system is that it does not care what color people are; it does not care what their religion is; it only cares whether they can produce something you want to buy. It is the most effective system we have discovered to enable people who hate one another to deal with one another and help one another.

Limited government will always be better than no government.

Perhaps the most valuable thing the "Great American Experiment" accomplished was to demonstrate that "limited government" is impossible. There cannot be a master who answers to his slaves.

Iโ€™m guessing the downvotes are because of a misunderstanding. I think the person is saying limited government doesnโ€™t work because there are always be people who want to be a master and they will not answer to their slaves.

Look at our government now. Politicians are calling themselves leaders. They are supposed to be public servants. Instead, they spend their time filling their pockets and now are so blatantly corrupt that they are even pretending that our votes matter. They act as if they know better than us and we should just shut up and know our place as their slaves.

I can only hope that we can pull ourselves past the impossible part and get back to a limited government. Most problems are best solved locally. The hard part is fighting against those who want power to abuse it.

In most cases, those who want power probably shouldn't have it, those who enjoy it probably do so for the wrong reasons, and those who want most to hold on to it don't understand that it's only temporary. John C. Maxwell

Assuming government is the master is the problem.

It is the duty of the people to constantly limit government. There is no such thing as no government. As soon as two people have a disagreement and appeal to a third party, that's governance. The trick is to use government as a necessity rather than allowing it grow of its own accord.

We as a people have failed in that duty.

But that "masters" domain can certainly be curbed. Look at prohibition and the so-called "war on drugs" ... at some point, people just refuse to comply and that's enough.

Upvote to the moon. Since we're doing it the hard way (still works) and can't have a 3rd party.

It's to try and associate blacks & other minorities with crime so that we hate them, call them slurs, etc. again.

Yeah... They definitely don't do that themselves by committing crimes at a disproportional rate...

All they're doing is raising a generation of people who are, at best, entirely apathetic to complaints of racial bias.
