RE: The Handyman

Hi @rvanstal that was a nice metaphor. Are the blue, red and yellow representing colors of political parties? There are nearly not distinguishable like the parties we have in reality ;). They fight small battles no one cares about while they all agree on the fundamentals, that the people are questioning. I don' believe that what we have is real democracy.

Can I feature your article in my series "what I read in politics today"?

Hi @politics-trail, thanks for reading! Yes, the colors represent the different politica parties or 'flavors' let's say. I completely agree with you. Especially here in the Netherlands, all parties except for the (failing) libertarian party, all parties agree that big government is by definition the way to go, which is a shame. The only thing they fight about is where tax money goes to. In other words, how innocent people's money is taken away from them and redistributed to others. Nobody seems to wonder if that's a good idea at all anymore.

Of course you can feature this article! I would really appreciate it.

@politics-trail I started to blog about anarchy and voluntaryism. Wrote this similar article, but just longer. Check it out... https://steemit.com/freedom/@cmoljoe/road-to-freedom-series-2-the-myth-of-authority

Ah yes, I stumbled across your post. I needed to fix my PC, it was rapidly crashing yesterday and I think that held me from actually reading. It looks very good at first glance, I love that movie :).

Can I also feature you in politics today? Not sure if I will, because I have not read yet, but I am pretty certain that I will want to ;)

Of course you can.

When you read it, can you tell me your opinion about lenght of article. My opinion is that isn't to long because that theme is long and complicated. Should I write shorter articles?

I will address that in my comment, I am in the middle of reading, but looking at how much I have left, it is definitely on the linger side. It is hard to set a limit of min max for an article. You could write a whole book as an article and it might be worth reading it all. You sometimes actually have to question if it is worth it for you as an Author or if you should rather split a topic into a series.
