Achilles' Heel

Have you ever seen the movie called Jason and the Argonauts? One memorable scene in it reminds me of the current fight for bikers rights.

Jason finds a treasure trove that's guarded by a gigantic bronze statue. Though he knows better, he gives in to temptation and steals some jewelry. The statue comes to life and starts stomping the Argonauts like bugs. They try to fight back, but they're outmatched.

Then Jason notices a manhole-sized plug in the statue's heel. As soon as he uncorks the plug, the statue is mortally wounded, and rapidly and crumbles to the ground.

Bikers are fighting against a giant, too. It's the nanny state, and it's guarding the treasure we seek (freedom). But no matter how hard the bikers fight, the giant nanny keeps squashing them like bugs. Fortunately, the nanny state has an Achilles' Heel, too.

Why fight the giant with sticks and stones? A little campaign work in the right place can take down a vulnerable nanny-crat legislator. Do it in a couple of districts, and the giant starts to crumble. Get better at it, and it happens that much faster.

See you on the campaign trail ... and you can keep the treasure.
