I need to figure out what I want to do first! :)

LOL, another one of the rudderless, brainless and clueless generation which has been coddled by helicopter parents. Here's a hint kid, you're not special and your silly ideas have no place in modern society.

I also find it very strange that you rip on Anarchist for being a loser who "sucks off his parents all of the way through, and likely past, college" yet you embrace a political party and philosophy dedicated to ensuring that as many people as possible "suck off" of strangers. Seems like a strange concept that it's okay to live off of strangers' money taken by threat of force but it's not okay to live off of your parents' money freely given.


I don't have a problem with him doing it, but I do have a problem with him being such a hypocrite that he can't even so how pathetic he is and how he is the antithesis of everything he purports to be, much like most of these libertopian tools who run around quoting Thomas Jefferson, yet another hypocritical "big thinker" who really wasn't all that practical in reality.

These kids who believe in this tripe are nothing more than the spoiled offspring of people who actually did a lot but doted on their children far too much.

Typical, nit pick at the minor details and ignore the main argument.

The US became the most successful country on Earth because of its libertarian principals.

LOL, hardly. Most of our biggest gains came during times when we had higher regulation and government action, whether it be through corporate structures or through international trade/diplomacy.

In fact, you could say that if it hand't been for anti-libertopian moves, we'd not even be a single country because the libertopians would have just let the slavemasters alone to subjugate an entire race.

Then we'd be nothing more than the Euros and their fractured existence.

It's also ironic that one huge libertopian ideal of non-interventionism is the antithesis of how this country was even created as France was nothing BUT interventionist.

I view all of those who wish for big government as misguided wannabe slave owners. Fuck all of you who wish to use force to take from me and others, in the name of "for the people" fuck you.

Isn't it the exact opposite?

Plutocracies = slavery.

The media is an example of a heavily government regulated market.

The internet, on the other hand, is more of a free market, and Dr. Paul receives his fair share of attention on it.

Cats, porn, and many stupid or disgusting things also receive a large share of attention on the internet compared to "the media". Your point?

Yeah...pre-New Deal era, America had a lot going for it but was largely a pretty shitty place compared to what it is today. Speaking of the New Deal era, have you forgotten how well America did during that time period? I think that was about as good as things have been, especially for the middle class. In case you don't know what things were like in the New Deal era (based on your posts, I'm assuming you don't), it was probably the most liberal America has ever been.

Either way, it's pretty clear you've either A) never taken an American history class or B) took one in high school and didn't really care or have forgotten everything you've learned. I know I sure didn't care when I took it, and really didn't learn anything. I've been catching up on my history now that I have more of an interest in politics.
