Is Martin still running for Office?

Post by heydaralon » Sun Apr 16, 2017 12:40 pm

Martin, what are your political aspirations at the moment? I live about three timezones away from you, but it is cool that you were trying to fix things on a local level. I know Seattle is very liberal, and my cousins inlaws moved to Idaho because they did not like the creeping SJW stuff happening in their city, but I've heard that the pacific Northwest has a lot of conservatives that live away from the big cities. What is the political climate of Washington State at the moment?

I'll be running for the same State House seat I always run for. A lot of people think I am their rep because they know my face (and hat) from 10 years of campaign signs. (They're always disappointed when they find out I'm not.)

This Thursday, the Libertarians invited me to a meeting because they agree with me. In fact, they're the only ones who watch my political videos even though they know I'm a Spend-n-Tax Liberal.

What do you mean by the term "Spend n-Tax Liberal?"

I didn't say "replace."

I said "end."

MF is just another statist who thinks he's smarter than IRL.

I suppose it provides a sense of security, that there is some kind of fine-tuning that can be made to an economy. BS but perception is reality.

So we agree that the premise is pure fantasy. That's good.

I like Hitler's pre war economy tbh. It seems like it can work but it's not really necessary here. I'm going to have to side with the lolbergs and say burn it all down.
