When I first saw this picture, I thought it must have been created by a Ron Paul fan. And since Congressman Paul is the closest to my views according to the Reason political quiz, it’s easy to see why I would jump to that conclusion.
But maybe the person who created this image wasn’t really trying to boost Ron Paul, but was instead taking a swipe at other Republicans?
Since I’ve dinged Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum, and Mitt Romney, that also appeals to me.
But what really matters is that corporatism is morally and economically odious, regardless of the party. That’s why the TARP bailout was reprehensible. It’s why Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac subsidies are disgusting. And it’s why industrial policy in the tax code is corrupt.
So regardless of how you interpret this picture, enjoy the humor and remember the lesson.

I know I’m voting for Ron Paul over Romney.
But I wish Paul would take some libertarian persuasion tips from the Cato Institute.
It seems like you’re saying that Ron Paul deserves our vote…
It’s important to realize that someone will end up in the White House. So will or would you vote for Ron Paul now, Dan?
Without such recommendations and such votes, Ron Paul doesn’t stand a chance. I know it’s unlikely, but if nobody bothers to vote for him because they are not 100% behind all his policies, then it becomes impossible, rather than just unlikely.
Then you end up with a much worse candidate in the White House…
This suggests that voting for the least worst candidate is better than voting for none at all!
Hmmm, is this last statement a non sequitur?
