Don't look for a "plan." That's socialism, top-down stuff. Just start behaving like a free citizen and the rest will follow. Liberty is a bubble-up process from a few basic principles. And we have all the roadmap we need in the Constitution.
I disagree with the first, but there's much wisdom in the second.
And I think it points out what is so fundamentally wrong with so many pinning their hopes on Ron Paul.
They're pinning their hopes on a top-down imposition of liberty. They want Uncle Ron to tell them "it's okay to do XYZ" instead of just having the balls to go do it.
It's always gutsy to "be first", I won't deny that dynamic, but it's what has to happen.
This has always been my prime criticism of the gay rights/gay marriage movement, regardless of the actual merits of the subject. All of their strategies to date have essentially been different forms of whining to the .gov hat-in-hand for "their rights".
If you want to "be married", well then
be married. Simply declare that you're married. File jointly and pay only those taxes you'd pay if you were married. Your gay husband is in the hospital dying of AIDS, and his fundo parents show up and get you excluded? Kick their ass and force your way into the room. You get excluded in probate? Take the stuff you know your dead partner wanted you to have.
Take your rights. Begging for them just defines you by what your enemies have laid out for you. Don't play their game. Just flip the damn checkerboard off the table entirely.
That's what Rosa Parks and the Freedom Riders did. They quit whining, and just went and sat in the white-seats.
Did they get beat, fire-hosed, imprisoned, and chewed on by dogs for their trouble? Sure. The Founders got even worse than that. The majority of them wound up dead or destitute for their trouble.
Ultimately, that's what's wrong with Ron Paul. His followers astroturfing their way through the GOP primary process and straw polls is an attempt at an end-run to impose a top down solution to what at it's core is a bottom-up problem.
