  1. You are not classical liberal unless you want to bring back child labour, abolish democracy, and think that companies should be ruled by their owners. I mean a core liberal philosophy is that you think people will take better care of things if they own it themselves. And if nobody owns a park they argue, then nobody will take care of it and people just throw waste on the grass. And likewise would a stockmarket company be mismanaged by managers that didn't own all the stocks in the company, did Adam Smith and other classical liberals argue.

  2. "Rights" are a bullshit concept. Likewise are Libertarians full of shit when they claim to fight for other peoples rights, when they are not. In fact, they are indeed a threat to other peoples rights. You see, libertarians are mentally ill people with very strange worldview. They think that the right to private property is holy and that no one ever can infringe upon that right no matter how dire the circumstances are. Taxing people is theft, and it is better that 1 million people dies than a rich dude have people collecting apples from his garden of one of his palaces on the other side of the planet. For the libertarian it is a human right to not be taxed. While we other normal people would define human rights very differently, like for example the right to food and housing no matter what. And if some people needs to be taxed to provide for everyone then so be it. Idiot libertarian claims to be for the free market. But in reality they just want to go back to monarchy and a system where landlords collect all the economic surplus an area produces. They call socialists stupid and say there are no such thing as a free lunch, while they themselves does not oppose economic rent from capital and that people get rich just by owning land. They are simply hypocrites, idiots and morally bankrupth.

  3. I think we are rich thanks to society more than thanks to the ability of the individual. Therefore it is nothing wrong with forcing the winners in society to share the profits they gain by living in this society that helped them become so succesful.
