Strip-Taxing

You’ve heard of strip-mining?

Liberal states (California and New York) are engaged in strip-taxing.

 

I just invented that.  Feel free to use it.

 

The fatted tax calf — and strippers — in one image.  Pretty impressive.  (What are those, crutches?  What the hell?)

Not a Dialogue

CONSERVATIVES:  Stop spending.

Don’t be ridiculous.  That will harm people who depend on our spending.

CONSERVATIVES:  At least reduce spending.

You are evil.  

CONSERVATIVES:  At least spend judiciously.

Funny you should use that word.  Most judges are on our side.  The spending will continue.*

CONSERVATIVES:  From the spending, at least eliminate fraud.  And waste.

Don’t be ridiculous.  This is how we reward our loyalists.

CONSERVATIVES:  Limit spending to money already appropriated, like a normal person.

Don’t be ridiculous.

CONSERVATIVES:  Don’t increase taxes to pay for ever more wasteful and unwise corrupt programs.

*You haven’t been listening.  Oh, and criteria would be racist.

 

Extremely Rank Choices Voting

Why not mandate that “None of the Above” appear on each and every ballot, and no one can be declared a candidate who does not score higher than that?

Libertarian Party of New York Launches “Vote NOTA” Protest Campaign for Governor
Independent Political Report | September 5, 2026 | Jordan Willow Evans

The Libertarian Party of New York is calling on voters to write in “None of the Above” for governor this year, launching a statewide protest campaign against New York’s ballot access laws after its own gubernatorial nominee failed to qualify for the printed ballot.

In a statement this week announcing its “VOTE NOTA” campaign, the party said it will not support a “named candidate” for governor this cycle and rallied voters to instead write in None of the Above.
