  1. another weasel who thought automobile quality shouldn't be regulated by the government but by the free market. So; "Here buy this car and see if it's safe enough, if it is that's great. If it's not, don't worry you won't need a car anymore" He also thought Central Park should be sold off to big business

  2.  @shagituz  I was thinking the free market would set up reviewing business to review car quality and safety, people would buy these reviews books, blogs, videos etc,.. And they could do a better job than the government, but still Central Park is better as Central Park rather than another shopping center

  3. 12:00 "While it makes sense in..." He's so biased it's unbelievable, Maybe what the Pixy Stick Killer did made sense to him. He's so sympathetic to THEM and everything THEY do, while anyone isn't one of THEM is evil and nasty, Once again Simon's a weasel

  4.  @b.thomas8926  I'm interested in a balance between the two as well. But it could be a Middle Ground Fallacy. Eg. Mr A says "2 + 2 = 4", Mr B says "2 + 2 = 8" therefore the real answer must be "2 + 2 = 6". This would be an example of a MGF. But a dynamic middle ground which moves depending on the time and situation is probably the right answer. But that wasn't what my statement said. My statement wasn't for regulation in general. But in those two cases where examples how extreme Milton was. He was clearly wrong, and instead of admitting it, he just carried on with smug intellectual complacency He was a weasel. I think you unintentionally strawmanned me.

  5. I'd like to see a video about Genrikh Yagoda or Lazar Kaganovich I wonder why Simon hasn't, maybe he's afraid to draw attention to their ethnic/religious background and the horrible crimes they commited. Some scholars estimate Yagoda could have killed as much as 20 million people. Lazar Kaganovich was the main architect of the Holodomor, were they purposefully starved 4 million Ukrainians to death. Then there's also Idel Jakobson, Salomon Morel, Józef Różański, Anatol Fejgin, Stefan Michnik, Aaron Soltz, Lazar Kogan, Matvei Berman, Naftaly Frenkel and Ana Pauker(aka Stalin in a Skirt). All of them are from the same ethnic/religious background and if you say that this background was over represented, you're marked as a conspiracy theorist and worse. A lot of them were Chekist read up about the atrocities of the Cheka on wiki. And also Isia Davidovich Berg, who invented the gas van in the 1920's. Putin said the first Soviet Government was made up of over 80% of people from this background. Why hasn't Simon done videos about these people?

Is society really that constricted about "anti-semitism", that we can't learn the truth about history?

  7. Depends on your ethnic/religious background. If your of the same background as Rand, he will be flattering to you, if not oh well
