    No ones talking about it...until now. Fairness Doctrine

    Does "equal time" only count for Republicans and Democrats? Or are my opinions allowed "equal time" as well? And if it only allow "equal time" for Republicans and Democrats, doesn't this just enforce a false paradigm being there are more then "both of those sides"?

    Economic "Stimulus" Bill = Nationalized Health Care Plan!

    If this is true then we should be able to remove the individual agents within this collective concept we call an ecosystem and still have an ecosystem. Which is just absurd, because without the individual agents there would be no ecosystem. Which only highlights the illusion you are buying into...

    What the OMB says about Obama's Stimulus

    You are creating a false dilemma. You are attempting to isolate this into "this and that". The real problem is this "money spending" and "debt creation". Which both of your "either/or choices" are guilty of.

    Obama's Weekly Address: 2-14-09

    If it was really my money then I would be free to not support this foolish act. But I don't own my money which is why I am only allowed a percentage of it and have no say in what it is spent on.

    Let's be frank...

    The seeds were planted in 1913 with the creation of the central bank (FED) and the IRS. And you will find that Milton Friedman's economic ideology is virtually identical to Keyens when compared with Austrian economics.

    Economic "Stimulus" Bill = Nationalized Health Care Plan!

    This is a great example which supports what I am saying. An ecosystem is just a category we use to simplify the individual agents which we group into this ecosystem. So this ecosystem doesn't really exist out side of our minds, the individual agents do though. But you can actually touch and...

    Let's be frank...

    Because they are governments that think pointing "government's gun" at others is the only solution for everything. And in a "Democracy" you have everyone fighting amongst each other in hopes to control "government's gun" to turn it away from themselves and point it at someone else. All...

    A democratic system is nothing more then mob rule on a grand scale. The Insanity of Mass Democracy Please educate yourself regarding this and form an actual argument rather then these strawmen. Lean about the monetary system, what we see going on will make a lot more sense if you do this...

    No ones talking about it...until now. Fairness Doctrine

    The Constitution is just some ink on some hemp paper. It can't give anyone anything. We each allow others free speech, that is how free speech is attained. ====================== The problem with forcing stations to provide "equal time" is their is more then "two sides". What this does is...

    isn't that exactly what got us into this debt mess in the first place?

    Let's be frank...

    That is what Keynesian economics claims, that people are the problem not the system itself. But when money is created through debt, how can you prevent people from going into debt? The only ones who "make out" in such a system is the creators of this money/debt. All they need to do is punch...

    Let's be frank...

    Yes, according to Keynesian economics. That has been the dogma for the last 100 years or so. But look where that got us, everyone is in debt up to their eyeballs. And they keep creating even more debt to fix this debt problem. Now you tell me, does paying your credit card bills with your other...

    Too funny. Clearly you are completely ignorant regarding the schools of economics. I believe that link I provided, if you really cared to educate yourself, is a great resource for understanding free market economics. Hopefully you might be able to see and understand the mechanisms at work and...

    But the government wants to control every aspect of everyone's lives. You make "illegal" peoples ability to protect themselves and others then government has an excuse to make you pay for more police in witch to control you better.

    Corporate Socialism, the Double Standard of the Republican Party

    Why? Isn't it the government who wants to rob you blind? The individuals you deal with that are not government, at least they want to partake in some voluntary trade in which you both consent to and benefit from.

    With All Due Respect, Mr President, that is not true

    In your opinion, is the non-aggression principle a good thing or a bad thing as a foundation for a moral philosophy? Do you have any facts to support this opinion of yours regarding the non-aggression principle?

    Ye Olde Libertarian Pub

    I totally agree. I was a minarchist for the longest time. But I couldn't reconcile the logical contradictions with the "political libertarianism" and the "philosophical libertarianism". (non-aggression principle) So I think of my self as a philosophical libertarian, not part of some...

    Economic "Stimulus" Bill = Nationalized Health Care Plan!

    Can a Tree live without the "forest"? Society is nothing more then a concept. It is just a category you use to simplify the world around you. Let me try to simplify this for you. In math you can have 3 apples, so you have a "set" of three individual apples. The "set" doesn't really exist, the...
