  1. I have the movie "Patton" with George C Scott. At the beginning, he is giving a speech and says "Individualism is bull crap!" Well,---the writers of the movie forgot what our Military is suppose to be fighting for,---"Individualism", our founding philosophies.

  2. "The Komrades infesting our universities couldn't carry this man's shoes." But would enjoy the smell. It is true. They think their chit does not stink, because they like the smell of it.

  3. Why?

  4. But the most power of the mind is "reason", (not emotions).

  5. Preston Tucker, (Owner Tucker automobile who got destroyed by congress for the rest of the auto industry, crony capitalism I guess it is called today), made a tank for the war effort from his garage in Michigan. The Military turned it down because it went to fast, (but they took the manned rotating gun turret we have seen on many Military craft), as they did not want a combat vehicle to go over 35 mph. I am pretty sure General Patton would have loved a fleet of 100 mph combat vehicles.

  6. When compassion leads to dependence,---it can't be compassion of any kind. It is more like keeping your kid in the basement and feeding him well most of the time.

  7. Yea, we should all get rich with bankruptcies. Should be easy. Next time a free market man who got rich with no lobbyists runs for office,---you would be smarter than marx to vote for him/her.

  8.  @enslinger  Well, why don't you explain it from your imagination then?

  9.  @joriskylie6857  I can agree with that, sure. But a big reason of why we are losing our liberty to communism, is because we don't understand it was our individual liberty we are suppose to fight for,----and others individual liberty. We don't know what individual liberty with free enterprise is anymore. But if you experience some of it, it is enlightening to find out that you can do better with a brain in your head, and free enterprise in you hands, than the poverty the state promises us. When my business took off, after several college degrees and decades of experience and still just above poverty, suddenly making more than any Union worker in the world!, ------------------------------I discovered Freedom, (until April 15th). I discovered how we grew this place so fast from the wilderness. No Draft needed if we know that is what we are fighting for, and we would the best because we would want to be there. Still, some Private with a new and good idea would do wonders. For a reference, Chess is a game of war, and Bobby Fischer beat all of communism by himself. :) (Which never made him famous in that context.). I never liked team sport. But the military is not a sport. I can agree with that for sure.

  10.  @joriskylie6857  How about this for freedom? I say we lost WW2 to Japan, (and soon after, helped communism take over china). How can I say that? Because we lost individual liberty and free enterprise and gave some to Japan. ?? Yes, congress destroyed Tucker after WW2, (who made a 100mph tank that Patton would have loved a few fleets of, but rejected by congress just before or as we entered the war.). Then, after the War, we give Japan 800 billion to rebuild, and Honda was allowed to become a manufacturing dynasty. If we were protecting the principles that founded the USA----we did not win that war. And today, it looks like we surrendered everything. Most of them are evil,---but philosophy is all we have to live with. We had it right once.
