April Fools!—Not

Posted by James Bowery on Monday, 02 April 2007 02:48.

Apparently this is a story about Ayn Rand’s brother, Mendel:

A HOLOCAUST survivor jailed for his part in a £6.9million money laundering scam was yesterday freed as “an act of mercy”.

While in prison Mendel Rand, 87, had suffered nightmares and flashbacks to his wartime ordeal.

As a boy in Krakow, Poland, he had hidden from the Nazis in dark cellars with little food.

Mr Rand, from Golders Green, North London, had his 18-month jail term replaced with a suspended sentence at the Court of Appeal in London.

It would be a great April Fools joke except the only part that isn’t true is my comment that he is related to Ayn Rand.

Money laundering should not be a crime.  Why shouldn’t people be allowed to hide money from government snoops?

Whether money laundering should be a crime or not should be up to the sovereignty.

Of course, the fundamental problem of sovereignty is that people cannot depart with their territory to join other sovereignties.  So the respect in which the money launderer should be set free is the sense in which we should all be set free from those sovereignties that violate our freedom of territorial association. 

Now, lets ask ourselves this vital question:

What is the bludgeon used most often to prevent people like the folks sponsoring MR from having their own territory over which they exercise sovereign control of their borders and qualification for citizenship based on heritage?  How might this be related to the main article’s joke?
