Economy and the Ballot

We’re a week and a half out from the beginning of early voting. It’s time I went through the ballot.

The short version is: vote Republican all the way down the ballot.

In this post, I’ll talk about why that’s the wise choice, particularly this year. And then I’ll go through a handful of races here in Texas and Harris County.

WHY VOTE REPUBLICAN

In the Spherical Model, Democrats are—and have almost always been—down in the statist tyranny quadrant of the political sphere. (Read more about the Spherical Model here.) I would say they hovered just below the equator most of my life, but the last couple of decades have slipped further and further southward (south is toward tyranny; not related to our geographical earth).

Republicans are a mixed bag. Our platform, particularly here in Texas, is up in the freedom zone. That is what the people want: a government limited to its duties of protecting life, liberty, and property, and defending (not granting) our God-given rights. Republicans who understand that and act accordingly give us the kind of government we want. Those who try to “give” people what they think they want in order to win votes and maintain power, but just less blatantly than the Democrats do, are also below the equator into tyranny.

Sometimes it comes down to two candidates, both below the equator, but one further than the other, and also aligned with a party that will pull the country southward. In such a case, we vote for the one more likely to do our will, and get someone better later.

There aren’t actually many examples of that on this year’s ballot, particularly in statewide races. So that’s good news. The bad news is that, according to polls (most of which cannot be trusted, but they’re the only information we have) Dems are neck-and-neck in some crucial races. Texas is a target, with big money flowing in from out of state.

The Democrat Socialists of America (DSA) are giddy about the possibility of taking over Texas. We absolutely must not allow that apocalyptic outcome to happen.

Here’s a pretty good summary of the differences in the parties, in general:
