Episode description

Politicians throughout history have tried their very best to squelch speech critical of their lousy performance. Here in the United States, the political class has gotten clever about this, realizing Americans bristle at thought control, so they have dressed up violations of our First Amendment rights with phrases like "campaign finance reform" and that most vile of creations, the Speech & Thought Control Board.

If they called it that, the populace might get restive, so they call it The Federal Election Commission.

Bland in branding, violent to the spirit of free Americans, the FEC exists to violate our rights to free expression. In concert with the current crop of tinpot dictators, er, governors and mayors who are favoring one group's right to free association which denying it to others, the laws underpinning the FEC are designed to wring the free will from the American people.

Don't let them bully you.
