Mqurice - there is so much to like about that philosophy.
A liberal society is a free and open society, where all interaction is based on mutual consent, and where government does not promote, or persecute any individual, group, or lifestyle, but protects all equally.
HAHA! I bet michael jackson is feeling you!

According to Dr. Peter Mezan, a psychoanalyst in New York City, "There is an impulse that is common to perversion and to utopian thinking. The wish is to create a world in which differences make no difference. The great utopian thinkers have been immensely inspiring, but there is a reason that utopian communities have never worked out. In the name of equality of every sort and in the attempt to eliminate the tensions that normally divide us, they propose to create a marvelously unnatural world without the usual boundaries. But then it gets all fucked up."
Think of MICHAEL JACKSON. He has attempted to eradicate just about every sexual, generational, and racial difference – and to construct an alternate utopian reality in Neverland. While there is certainly a futuristic quality to his clothing and mask-like facial features, it is unclear whether he watches Star Trek or just looks as if he does.
4. Civil society
A liberal society embraces a diverse civil society with a variety of values, lifestyles, and circumstances where government does not attempt to limit that diversity through the social engineering of outcomes.

Utopian my ass.....without FORCED equality....there would still be 95% WHITE firefighters, police, and politicians
Mqurice I still see way too many that use the gubbment to further thier memes in a quest to squash others memes - to censor others memes - etc etc Even right here on SI I have been censored on 3 seperate boards in just the past 4 days. The users of the boards are too lazy to hit thier individual ignore feature and keep the power in thier hands - they have run to jim jones central authority type and got that person to go do thier censoring work for them - people want gubbment to create a perfect world for them and thier individual views and want to be lead - most people like to follow - we are pack animals in a sense eh? So that is why your philosophy will fail ultimately.
6. Security
The purpose of the legal system is to enforce the legal rights and responsibilities of its citizens: to protect their lives, freedoms, property, and contracts; however, government shares responsibility for its citizens' safety, but citizens retain the right to personal and collective self-defence
HAHA - I don't even know where to begin with this one - have you went into virtual world with gerrymander and NEO and stopped living in the real physical world?
The purpose of the legal system is to make lawyers rich - HAHA!

VAWA is not about stopping violence. It is about greedy special interests slopping at the federal trough, perpetuating gender supremacy for women. If proponents were truly concerned about helping victims, they would demand that all intervention and funding be gender neutral and gender inclusive.
That one message alone got me 4 new people I have never heard of before sending me pm's that I should rot in hell and am a sexist pig and to go back to my cave like the neanderthal I am - HAHA! ANd I thought SI had the ayn rand objectivists and a had governed their emotions?!? You obviously are not out here in the real world of OPRAH and her minions - so so silly. I kinda liked what those old guys said before 50 states - with a WEAK central government - then me and all the other geeks could move somewhere and not beholden to others - I think jefferson once said hell is people - too many - too many rules to make them all happy - where to flee? I like your spirit though.
I think General chen said something on his blog recently about declining civilization:

In July, film director David Lynch announced that he had formed a foundation to raise $7 billion to fund 8,000 Transcendental Meditation practitioners to bring world peace by creating a "unified field" of stress-free brain waves over the Earth (which TM'ers accomplish, as they unironically describe it, by detaching their minds from the "thinking process"). Training expenses have increased dramatically in 12 years, for TM maven Dr. John Hagelin needed only $4.2 million in 1993 to bring 4,000 TM'ers to Washington, D.C., to reduce crime for eight weeks, and TM founder Maharishi Mahesh Yogi asked for only $1 billion in 2002 to train 40,000 meditators to calm the world after Sept. 11.

In separate incidents on Tuesday, July 26, mothers in Falls Church, Va., and Zephyrhills, Fla., kicked their young sons (ages 4 and 7, respectively) out of their cars on busy highways and abandoned them as punishment for backtalk. Channoah Alece Green, 22, in Virginia even knocked her son down driving off on Interstate 495 as he tried to climb back in. The problem addressed by Lori Heine, 46, in Florida was that her son wanted a McDonald's Cheeseburger Happy Meal when she had already bought him a McNuggets Happy Meal.

HAHA here is some WATER for MOO and his GOLDEN MEANS
For a six-month period four years ago, government scientists in Florida studied a "miracle" liquid called "Celestial Drops" as a cure for the canker menace that ravages the state's citrus crops. According to a July report by the Orlando Sentinel, the research was recommended by then-secretary of state Katherine Harris, who later said she had learned of Celestial Drops from New York rabbi Abe Hardoon, who is associated with the popularized version of Kabbalah, whose organizers sell its followers ordinary water that is supposedly "blessed" by being stored in a room with sacred texts. Celestial Drops, which was promoted as having "improved fractal design," "infinite levels of order" and "high energy and low entropy," was ultimately revealed by the scientists to also be water. [Orlando Sentinel, 7-5-05]
Now Harris is the one that gave Bush the election no? BWAHAHA
You are going to get all these fuggin loons to adapt libertarian philosophy - HAHA - maybe michael is not the only one living in Neverland with Peter Pan! HAhA! |
