So how will you uphold a society without the "state theft"? Through modern feudalism? And do you not support human rights? If you get sick, and can't afford health insurance, you think you do not have a right to healthcare? If you get an infectious disease, you think you have the right to spread it around like a biological weapon? Do you think that people Romney was entitled to outsource thousands of jobs to China for profit, while taking the employee's pension and pocket it as profit? Do you have property right? Does your property and gun right trump the right of a poor kid not to go hungry to bed every night? Does your religious freedom trump the right of others not to be homeless?

Tyler Hurson So taking care of other people in your tribe as a common is immoral, but having property and using such property to enslave other people isn't? Sir, if I may say so, you have a warped view and morality as well as rights and property. And you seem to think that being born into wealth somehow makes you entitled to such, while it's immoral to give healthcare to poor kids who cannot afford such luxury as property or even a visit to the doctor. I smell the warped view of Ayn Rand a long way. And someone without solution. Just learned talking points as taken from a script.

Tyler Hurson Apparently everything is fiction to you except for the concept of owning things, and Romney's entitlement to have wealth while healing the sick is immoral, If tribalism is fiction, then you live in a fictional country, since nations and nationalism is the ultimate expression of tribalism. It seems that in your world, everyone is on their own, and your right to breath is determined by the people who's entitlement of property and wealth. Owning property (a piece of land) to exploit others is in your eyes is moral, but poor kids getting healthcare and medicine is not? So if you think that taxes are evil, specially when the likes of the Romneys having to pay it, who's going to protect Romney's right to property and deny poor kids an education, and healthcare? The people who work for Mitt Romney? The idea of property, land property that you seem to praise more than other people's right not to die from a treatable illness is fiction. It's a fake notion that creatures dwelling on this planet that has existed for billions of years, and will exist billions of years after should somehow have property rights over. I find it ironic to see you defend property rights (yours), and if you are born in USA come from people who's whole existence depended on theft, rape, and murder. Where is your respect for the property rights of the Native Americans who still live under the ilk of White Man's obsession with property rights? And how about the slave owners whose wealth rested entirely on the slave labor because they claimed "property rights"? In what way does your property "right" make this world a better place? How does your property right contribute to society? Or perhaps there is no such thing as society, and cities are built randomly with no rules and no laws to protect the wealth of the entitled people against the people whom are not entitled? Does being born in wealth automatically give you the right to a better life than others?

It's not the first time that has happened. Nixon did it in 1968 with the South Vietnamese leader. Reagan did it with the new Ayatollah regime in Iran against Carter in 1980. To put it like this: GOP has not had a legitimate president since Eisenhower.

LibertyDownUnder "Libertarians" want to have a government so small they can flush it down the toilet, but big enough to dictate your genitalial activities.

LibertyDownUnder When you can define the term "Small government" without it sounding like a cheap slogan just to gain power and serve special interest, you'll get it...

baserocklove The Koch brothers considers themselves as being "libertarian", Yet they fund the GOP in it's entirely. they think that their right to hoard more billions trumps other people's right not to be shot by cops for a blunt, or having religions or corporations come between you and your doctor. Money and greed wins of basic human rights.
