Us economic libertarians are quite in favor of the rule of law..
I'm speaking metaphorically. Like in third world countries that have
child labor and sweat shops. Why do people work in such deplorable
conditions? Because they want to?? No, because they *have* to. And
that's the type of society the cons and the economic libertarians want
usher in: a barbarian society based on law-of-the-jungle economic
survival and rutting animal power.
and
that law should be administered by the Government. And that
Government should administer several other things..but not much more.
According to you. Not according to most people.
Most of us are pragmatic enough to believe in SOME social programs.
Help for the truely needy. But not a life long entitlement unless you
are truely helpless for life.
You on the other hand, should apologize for your abject ignorance on
the subject of libertarians.
Oh shut the hell up! Like I said economic libertarians want to do away
with min wage, gov pensions, any form of governmet healthcare, social
security, etc. etc. etc. I know who you people are. That is why I
despise you.
That's odd. I don't despise you. But I do know from your posts
the the extent to which you would expand government power to
assuage your guilt over things over which you have no control.
BTW, I'm a social libertarian, so you ultra right-wing crackpots
aren't the only only libertarians.
Sorry, but you don't qualify as a libertarian.
There are ways other than government to ensure that your concerns
are taken care of.
Of if you are not ignorant on the
subject..then you simply have to be totalitarian/socialist if you can
spew that dreck and think it true. Your grandious broad brush claims
are simply that..spin applied with a wide brush. Care to discuss the
subject? Bring your lunch..and your cites.
Why do you economic libertarians always run and hide when anyone asks
you what types of policies you are for or against? Because you don't
want to be seen as extremists?
The solution to social problems is through rejuvinating cultural
pride and values and reviving the moral code of individual
responsibility and accountability while eliminating dependence on
government and minimizing government jurisdiction and
interference.
