I'm tired of people with a Kindergarten-level understanding of economics and government (they call themselves Democrats) acting like they know what's best for everyone else. I'm tired of them pretending they're looking out for the little guy. I bet if you made both political parties take IQ tests, the Democrats would score at least 30 points lower on average. Am I promoting the Republican Party? No. They're just as bad, but in a slightly different way. The republicans are smarter, and want some good things, but they're deceived. Republican politicans lie, and pretend to be conservative, but they're not. The democratic politicans don't have to lie or deceive anyone. They're just blatantly stupid, evil, and communistic. Obviously there's some good in both party platforms. But not much. I'm exaggerating how bad things are because I'm venting. [/quote] You only prove you have no clue to economics, and you come with propaganda as if it were an education. I'm friends with PhDs in economics, who support the policies of Democrats as being far more realistic. Yet, to show how clearly ignorant you are, you call things communism which are not; you would, back in the day, be supporting Prince George over Washington because Washington was "communist," I'm sure. I mean, Washington was all about the people's army, the people's will, removal of religion as the dominating force of politics, removal of monarchs, you know, "commie" ideals. [/quote] And you only prove that you have NO clue what I believe. A PhD means shit. It means you've been given a stamp of approval by the NWO. Complete government control over the prices and distribution of goods, with the mindset that the people have a RIGHT to control or take what someone else has (collective ownership vs. private property) IS communism. I am in favor of the people, not a despot, ruling the nation, SO LONG AS THEY DO NOT INFRINGE ON ANYONE'S RIGHTS. Not even a majority vote should infringe upon a minority. I'm not in favor of despotism, or of mob-rule by the people. I'm in favor of individual rights, and personal and private property. [/quote] I love it. You say people know nothing about economics, but when they are shown to know something, you say it means shit. In other words, you are just an ideologue. Got it. Fucking owned. You are the one who has no knowledge of what you talk about, as can be seen through the use of the word, communism. Oh, and btw, a monopoly (which easily develops without regulations) means people having to deal with it are not free. A monopoly is not communist, but the end product of unregulated capitalism (which is not the same thing as free markets, which, if you knew economics, you would know). Now, part of the role of government is to make sure there really ARE free markets by regulating things so to prevent the end of unregulated capitalism, the monopoly which demolishes freedom. [/quote] The market should be regulated voluntarily by the consumers, not by the government. It takes a population of intelligent and wise consumers to prevent monopoly, and mass boycott to destroy a monopoly once its in place. We don't need the government to get involved. But like I said, this approach requires an intelligent and caring populace, which is something we don't have, and hence our shitty system we live under. Government regulation has only made it worse, especially since the government usually inteferes only to help maintain monopolies rather than prevent them (politicians acting for the benefit of their corporate donors and lobbyists). Government regulation is the VERY REASON we have so much monopoly in this country. Can you tell me that the medical and pharma industry monopolies are not the direct result of government regulation? Such regulations are in place to ensure the survival of those monopolies. Former executives from the largest corporations, as well as controlling stock holders, fill all of the key positions in those government regulatory bodies. [/quote] Again, you show no understanding to economics. Consumers vs monopoly for something which is essential for life means the consumers cannot regulate anything. You still show yourself ignorant of economics, and what freedom itself is about. When one side controls everything at the table, the other has only the freedom of obedience or death; that is not true freedom. [/quote]
