    Libertarianism as the Handmaiden to Socialism

    the question is what is considered culturally or socially good. one man's heaven is another man's hell and even that frankly changes with the wind. 150 years ago the American dream was 40 acres and a mule. them 100 years ago, it was the huistle and bussle of hollywood and the new york strips. 50...

    Libertarianism as the Handmaiden to Socialism

    if that be the case then I stand corrected. Any reference I've see to paleocon refers to people who blamed most of our ills on the industrial revolution. I was left with the impression that it was a name for some kind of Luddite political party.

    Libertarianism as the Handmaiden to Socialism

    I'm sorry I laugh at paleo-cons, talking about the evils of modernity on the internet....using a phone or a computer....made from a factory....that uses freaking electricity. I take it about as seriously as the left who talks about raging against the machines on their Iphone 12s while wearing...

    Libertarianism as the Handmaiden to Socialism

    You know you talk big about how ""your very soul is all a sum of what has come before but it is amazing how suddenly the individual becomes very important in one's last dying moments as they cling to their last moments of life especially if that life is being taken by another person. It's...

    Libertarianism as the Handmaiden to Socialism

    thing is what do you do in the case that any one of these systems decide to become hostile toward you. Just accept that "them's the breaks?" people need to be reminded they are mortal and WILL bleed if they get too arrogant and start to think they somehow can't bleed. too many times that ball...

I'm not saying no leadership at all. I'm saying limited government. Heck Really the only people you should be relying on...

    Libertarianism as the Handmaiden to Socialism

    Pot meet kettle. and really you think this is some kind of fantasy after reading all of human history or even after you know, paying the least bit of attention to what the left is doing?

    Libertarianism as the Handmaiden to Socialism

    And life has taught me to that the only people you can trust are those closest to you and those they vouch for because even normal strangers can and oft will screw you over any time they think it benefits them. It doesn't matter how good you are or how well you play your part. I trust no man to...

    Libertarianism as the Handmaiden to Socialism

    My parents are 2 people not 200+ million You also end up with murder and genocide when a mob gets too big. People WILL advocate for all kinds of things out of some psudo since of purity and then whine and cry foul when those ostracized others inevitably punch back.

    Libertarianism as the Handmaiden to Socialism

    Son I got to where I am in spite of society not because of it. It doesn't owe me anything and even if I did I would not trust it to pay up and if you have to rely on strangers to raise your kids that says an awful darn lot about you as a parent.
