No other can take your property, your labor, your thoughts, or your life from you without your permission, for that is theft, or murder and it is a crime on your person and on humanity as well, that is deserved of severe punishment.  For you are an individual, endowed with certain unalienable rights, a gift from your creator.  Not because someone wrote it down in a book, or a Declaration, or a Constitution, or shouted it from the roof tops.  It is true because it is the law of nature.  It is an absolute law with no contravening or superior law to supersede it.  It is the law of all laws and cannot be repealed by man or God.

Only you own your life, your property, your thoughts and your labor and all is sovereign to that which is you.  You are not a pawn that can be battered about at someone else’s will, or a whim, or for entertainment, or for the pure exercise of absolute power. 

I’m all for doctors. To me, there is no more valuable service on this earth than the professional care administered by a qualified practitioner of the medicinal arts. I don’t particularly enjoy going to the doctor (they always lecture me about smoking) however I can’t think of too many things more comforting than the knowledge that an experienced doc is close at hand should I get a treble hook in my eye, shoot myself in the thigh, or get my foot stuck in mouth.

Being from the Missouri Ozarks, I grew up with a lot of “untraditional” home medical practices. We always figured that there was no need to waste the doc’s time if you could fix it yourself – kinda’ the same theory as changing your own oil on the family Chevy. It’s not that tough a job and the pros have more important stuff on their minds.
