This is an exceptionally good man. I wonder if his name stands for Thomas Jefferson? I hope he stands up to save the US.
ReplyDelete"First, Cypress is run under a set of carefully considered moral principles, which rightly include making a profit as a primary objective. Second, there is a fundamental difference between your organization's right to vote its conscience and the use of coercion by the federal government to force arbitrary "corporate responsibilities" on America's businesses and shareholders.
Cypress stands for personal and economic freedom, for free minds and free markets, a position irrevocably in opposition to the immoral attempt by coercive utopians to mandate even more government control over America's economy."

ALSO THIS DAY IN HISTORY - WHICH IS PRETTY COOL -1860
Uriah P. Levy appointed Commodore of the US Navy’s Eastern Mediterranean fleet - A Jewish officer in the Navy at that time was rather unusual, and Levy dealt with his share of anti-Semitism during his career. One of his successful achievements was ending flogging as a form of punishment in the Navy. Levy as also an ardent admirer of Thomas Jefferson. After Jefferson’s death, Levy bought Monticello and restored it to its former luster. The restoration included reclaiming Jefferson’s library which numbered about 2500 volumes. When Levy passed away in 1862, he left the estate to the people of the United States.

"So, on his birthday this month, let us remember him not just as a Founding Father, architect, inventor, or scientist. Thomas Jefferson was all that, and something more. He was America's first life-centered philosopher."

ReplyDeleteWithout Thomas Jefferson, there is no Bill of Rights.
While abolishing ALL internal taxes
Including the whiskey tax and the land tax
In the first year of his first presidency,
While engaging in the Barbary War
Within two months of his first presidency,
And then spending $15 million
In the Louisiana Purchase
To double the then size of the USA,
Jefferson reduced the national debt
From $83 million to $57 million
During his two years of service
[And then, according to a Mises.org article,
Paid it off].

One who holds that there is a cause greater than the self is unfit to secure Individual Liberty. One who spurns selfishness, the concern for oneself, has no respect for the right to the pursuit of one's own happiness.
ReplyDelete"If we are made in some degree for others, yet in a greater are we made for ourselves. It were contrary to feeling and indeed ridiculous to suppose that a man had less rights in himself than one of his neighbors, or all of them put together. This would be slavery, and not that liberty which the bill of rights has made inviolable, and for the preservation of which our government has been charged." --Thomas Jefferson to James Monroe, 1782. ME 4:196, Papers 6:185
Response to Ken West's post: Hi Ken. You say that Ayn Rand "created a philosophical system—Objectivism—for anyone who may be interested..."
ReplyDeleteFirst: She was not hostile to those who believe in God, but I have met many atheists calling themselves objectivists, on fb, who are. Some even hurl vitriol at Thomas Jefferson, including the charge that he was theocratic.
Second: She considered Kant, the proponent of categorical imperatives, as the most evil man who ever lived. Yet, based on her description, Objectivism has an atheistic imperative.
Jeffersonianism has no imperatives.
"The principles of Jefferson are the definitions and axioms of free society... This is a world of compensation; and he who would be no slave must consent to have no slave. Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves, and, under a just God, cannot long retain it. All honor to Jefferson -- to the man, who in the concrete pressure of a struggle for national independence by a single people, had the coolness, forecast, and sagacity to introduce into a merely revolutionary document an abstract truth, applicable to all men and all times, and so embalm it there that to-day and in all coming days it shall be a rebuke and a stumbling-block to the very harbingers of reappearing tyranny and oppression." – Abraham Lincoln

"Mr. Jefferson, ... who was, is, and perhaps will continue to be, the most distinguished politician of our history... The principles of Jefferson are the definitions and axioms of free society." - Abe Lincoln
ReplyDelete"The principal author of The Declaration of Independence, Jefferson’s talents could constitute a book; the following catalog barely does them justice. During his teenage years at the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, VA, Jefferson became incredibly proficient in philosophy, mathematics, history, French, Latin and Greek. “Pfft-“, some hipster reader will undoubtedly say, “-Wikipedia knows all of those things- and Jefferson couldn’t Wikipedia like I Wikipedia!” In this obtuse and poorly articulated response lies a valid criticism – the ability to merely retain knowledge from books may not constitute smartness. But Jefferson was more than just book-smart: a polymath – which is a person distinguished in many varied fields, and not an obnoxious exponential equation – he was also an accomplished archeologist, author, inventor, lawyer, musician (talented in the cello, clavichord and violin) ornithologist, paleontologist, poet and speechmaker. And before you interrupt with some obscure insult, hipster, his architectural and horticultural prowess was such that he designed the University of Virginia (which he himself founded) and the Poplar Forest. This ridonkulous amount of talent was recognized by later president John F. Kennedy when he addressed 49 Nobel Laureates, “I think this is the most extraordinary collection of talent and of human knowledge that has ever been gathered together at the White House – with the possible exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone."

ReplyDeleteThis is the difference between Jeffersonianism and Objectivism: Ayn Rand considered Kant, the proponent of categorical imperatives, as the most evil man who ever lived. Yet, based on her description, Objectivism has an atheistic imperative.
ReplyDeleteWhereas, Jeffersonianism has no imperatives. Jefferson advocated for absolute freedom for the mind.
The lies about Thomas Jefferson include inside jobs, like websites and facebook pages named after him. The most malevolently insidious is the Thomas Jefferson Memorial Foundation, the corporation which owns Monticello. The anti freedom shamelessly gossip, and lie about Jefferson's record on slavery. Did you know that 26-year-old Jefferson, first-time legislator, submitted a bill for the emancipation of all slaves? Have you ever heard about his denunciation of slavery in his Declaration of Independence?
ReplyDeleteThis is an example of the work of Jefferson destroyers: "After the DNA tests, the Thomas Jefferson Memorial Foundation, the corporation which owns Monticello, set up a research committee, selected from its staff members, which produced a report (the “Committee Report”) that there was a “strong likelihood” Thomas Jefferson fathered six children by Sally Hemings. Because of the prominence Monticello has achieved, the Committee Report was anticipated as a definitive treatment of the available evidence. Instead, it is a serious example of an assault on historical truth. Not only is the evidence manipulated, unsupported postulates are created to fill the evidentiary gaps toward an apparently desired conclusion."
