"plunder by trade"
GAWD, you really are lost without a map or compass in that socialist wasteland, aren't you?
PLUNDER BY TRADE??????
Are you serious?
Let's you own a grocery store. I walk in and pay you $1 for a gallon of milk. Which of us has been plundered? You? Me?
locks the world into violence and war.
??????????
Uh, war stops trade.
Did you know that? It comes to a grinding halt during war.
Tell me: To eliminate this evil called "trade", and particularly international trade, which you say causes war (uh, could other things cause war too?), what do you propose? That we go back to small village life with no trade between them? Can you trade inside them? If not, how do you get economic specialization? Or does everyone have to grow their own food, make their own clothes, ......
Now under such a scheme, we'll be lucky to support 5% of the current population. If that. Are you volunteering to be one of the ones who dies?
Eliminate the monopolization of land,
There is no monopolization of land, not even in your favorite enemy, the United States.
technology,
Nor that. Even more so. They key to technology is published every day in books and professional journals and they're freely available.
and finance capital
Nor that. Foreign firms invest here. We invest in their countries. Silicon Valley has a whole industry dedicated to getting capital to those who need it and have a good idea. You didn't know this?
and equalize pay for equally productive work
And how do you propose to establish that 2 different lines of work are equally productive? How? Come on, tell us. I really want to hear this.
Once all nations and all people have access to technology
But they do. Some use it. Some don't. In 1850 Japan was a primitive medieval society. They saw what the West had and went for it. And got it.
their labor is paid equally for equally productive work
More Socialist Worker's Party BS.
even as economic efficiency increases and produces more wealth
No. Efficiency and wealth will plummet like a hundred-ton boulder.
But what of this?
Amendment V.
No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.
Shall the Constitution and Bill of Rights be thrown away with your bilge water? |
