I am required to pass a test, get a license,
before I can drive a car?
Any car — new, old, domestic,
imported, gas, diesel, electric —
if I can afford it with whatever I'm left
after unfair — by which I mean any — taxation?
And insurance and seat belts?
Don’t get me started!
I thought we were meant to be free.
With all this government interference,
things don't seem that free to me.
Life, Liberty, Pursuit of Happiness —
is what America means.
No room for taxes (or vaccine mandates)
anywhere near America’s genes.
Speed limitations, clean air, food, water …
matters of personal preference.
Building permits, zone regulations?
Here on my land, your “rules” are irrelevant!
I think Ayn Rand too Socialistic —
it is well known that she was born in Russia.
With Trump back (forever?) I am optimistic,
with library bans we can finally crush her
and every one else who according to me
gets in the way of my being free.
