  4.  @bobbykiefer4306  The free market can't regulate itself no more than a free society. Both are run by human beings and if history has taught us anything...people are corrupt. The market has to operate under the rule of law just like everyone else. You can't be free without the law and the law has to be based on certain guideline which are enshrined in the Constitution. Freedom isn't just being free of the tyranny of the government. It's also being free of the tyranny of your fellow citizens. That includes your neighbour, your spouse, fellow workers, your boss, the bankers and corporate bigwigs. Everyone of them is beholden to the Constitution. That means we can live our lives under the auspices of that Constitution, the way that we want to live. That means you cannot deprive anyone of their rights, not just by allowing them free speech and the rest but also by not stealing what belongs to them or intentionally causing them any type of harm be it physical or otherwise. The free market system still insists that you operate under the law. The banks were taking part in scheme that had to fail and they all knew it. That's the harm that I referred to and it infringed on the freedom of the average American. They stole from ordinary people. They corrupted the free market system. Corruption always infringes on human rights. That's why a government should never be involved in business...like socialists advocate for. The government is made up of people and history shows that people are notoriously corrupt. Just like we have separation of church and state, we also should have separation of the economy and state. That doesn't mean that there's no regulation. That means that we allow both the church and the market to operate within the confines of the higher power...the Constitution, so the rights of individuals aren't trampled.

  28. @Ethan Hobigant Roche Chris Cuomo....."Since when to protests have to be peaceful?" A rather poor attitude. Especially when the very first Amendment of the Constitution says that we have the right to peacefully assemble to bring our grievances to bear. If a protest is called, I'm going to assume it's going to be peaceful. It would be a peaceful assembly and it would be lawful. I'm an individual but so is the assembly. A group making a singularity, just like the Jack of Clubs is one card of the singularity called a Deck of Cards. Lose that Jack of Clubs and the Deck of Cards becomes unusable. When someone in that assembly throws a brick, that singularity, called an assembly, is no longer peaceful. As an individual, protesting, I have 2 choices. I can stay, and quite likely watch that assembly escalate the violence or go home, thereby tacitly expressing my disapproval for how that peaceful assembly did NOT hold up to its promise. I go home and tell anyone, who asks why I left, that I left because the assembly was no longer peaceful. When the union, at a company that I worked at, went on strike, I stood on the picket lines with my fellow union members. When they started throwing rocks and smashing car windows, I went home. The strike, like those who assembled to protest, was peaceful and I took part. The moment it became violent, I left because that strike was no longer peaceful. Many people stayed and claimed that they didn't throw anything or didn't approve of the violence. I say that the inflated numbers by the presence the peaceful strikers gave the violent ones the courage to do their foul deeds. I say the same thing about the "peaceful" protesters. When the violence starts, go home. The protest is no longer peaceful. "could be white supremacists"? A rather weak statement. Sounds more hopeful that factual.

  40.  @burny6666  I'm not trying to start a debate. You said she was a liar. You must have a reason for saying this and I'm assuming that you know what that reason is. All I'm doing is asking for an example. You must have one or else why would you call her a liar. Hiding behind the current consensus argument shows me that you're just parroting what what others have claimed and you've never questioned it. You're suffering from a logical fallacy. I could go through one hundred things that she said and prove everyone of them to be true and I've still not proved that she's not a liar. The reason for that is quite simple. It could be the 101st thing that was said that was the lie or the 110th or the 150th. I could never be satisfied that I looked deep enough. I'd have to examine EVERYTHING that she's ever said to prove that she's not a liar and that's impossible. That's why one is assumed innocent until proven guilty. You don't and quite often can never prove innocence. You can only prove guilt. I would say that to claim that she's a liar, you have the evidence. That's logical and the correct way to prove allegations. If you can't do it or refuse to do it, I have to question why and one possibility is that you don't have the evidence. Also, I'd lay money on it that everyone on the planet has lied at one point so your claim is one that carries no value. It could only carry real value if she openly and brazenly said something that she knew was false and then double down on that falsehood. Has she ever done that? If yes, show me how it's a lie and that she knew that it was a lie. If you can't prove it to me, you can't prove it to yourself and your claim is invalid.
