What a piece of garbage. It is PRIVATE research that contributed the improvement of standard of living to mankind. Governments love to take credit for something they have done nothing to help, and often obstructed. Government research leads to more weapons and more surveillance equipment to control the population.

@DanMorin007 I was blown away when President Obama said this. It discredits all the inventors and entrepreneurs who worked out of garages and warehouses to create the first motorcycles, computers, etc. It's unfortunate that government has presented itself in this false bravado of usefulness.

@MyDormantSoul No. We're not going to get over it. That isn't what America is. That isn't what freedom is you fucking domesticated cunt.

[PrivateAckbar]

@MyDormantSoul I believe the only way to have peace is to respect classical liberalism. That non-aggression IS peace. In1887 an appropriation bill passed by congress for ten thousand dollars to aid Texas farmers struggling in a drought. Grover Cleavland vetoed the bill because he understood taxation was a crime. The farmers prospered on the charity of private individuals, part of which he donated. When asked how much of your freedom you need to give up to help people the answer is ALWAYS zero.

@PrivateAckbar no not yet as in no dont run away from the debate yet. You havent debated on youtube before? Calm down and stop swearing at me. Yes I was a libertarian, what dont I understand? Friedman espoused free trade, I havent said a damn thing against it. And classical liberalism is now minute, it evolved into modern conservatism and was erased by Reagan & the Neocons. Modern liberalism wants to secure the working class's and minority liberties it is otherwise a small govt ideal, a step up.

[PrivateAckbar]

@MyDormantSoul You have so little understanding of economics and free market forces. So little liberalism. I know you were never a Libertarian. What the fuck do you mean no not yet? I know you're incapable of understanding and I don't want to talk to you. Every question you ask makes me realise I didn't teach you anything in the comments prior. You can keep messaging me if you wan't to be a cunt but I'm done.

[PrivateAckbar]

@MyDormantSoul What the fuck do you mean no not yet? This isn't a freedom of speech issue. You're being obnoxious in my inbox. I don't think it's worth explaining anything to you so I don't want to talk.

[MyDormantSoul]

@PrivateAckbar no not yet, tell me how everyone could be ordering mansions. WIthout the tax system and government programs you'd be paying tolls at every private road, you'd be earning whatever your employer wanted to pay you, you'd be paying higher health premiums for all the lead poisoning from your products, like the people of the deregulated china would be if they didnt at least have universal healthcare.

[PrivateAckbar]

@MyDormantSoul Well that PREJUDICE doesn't justify being a criminal. If we didn't violate peoples rights EVERYONE could be ordering mansions in the male right now. Keep redistributing that wealth and you'll all be on breadlines. I'm really done with you. If you've read Friedman and I have to tell you any of this you're dumb and immoral. Stop filling my inbox.

[MyDormantSoul]

@PrivateAckbar Well lets see how many groups there are in this society. From an economic perspective we have the ruling class, the upper class, middle class, and the working class. The middle and upper class are beautiful, they have the economic resources to pursue art, science, and social action, they can pay for their living expenses and enjoy the passions of life. The working class cannot, they struggle everyday to pay their bills and keep their jobs. Yes, I sympathize with the working class

[PrivateAckbar]

@MyDormantSoul It IS force when funding the military. It's force when you enforce a judicial system. If people were pacifists there would be no problem. You are NOT liberal. If you've read Friedman then you weren't moral enough to get it. What do you mean WE can help whatever group you're sympathies with? You're advocating criminality. It doesn't WORK!

[MyDormantSoul]

@PrivateAckbar Yes I've read Friedman, I used to be a rightwing libertarian. So you believe that we should spend millions on military but not on uplifting the millions in the growing ghettos so that they can have a chance at paying for school and not resorting to crime? So you believe the govt is intruding on our freedoms with these programs which reduce crime? So its not force when funding the military, but it is force when its on education & helping the working class & the public as a result?

[PrivateAckbar]

@MyDormantSoul You have minimal government for things like defense. I'm not an anarchist I'm a libertarian. Just read Milton Friedman and Rothbard if you've got questions. You don't need force. You're fucking tedious.

[MyDormantSoul]

@natritious1 you dont have all the answers, yet you will vehemently defend your ideology to death. It is rigid, it does not have a clear plan, and it is not helping our current situation. I am a liberal, I want to cap campaign contributions by a large sum. I dont want banks to be able to take whatever risks they want with MY pension. I dont want them to crash the economy, then spend billions with big oil, ie Koch bros to fund an anti-government ideology when the ppl are about to demand justice.
