No argument there. What caught my attention earlier was the invocation of "philosophy". To me that is a euphemism for ideology. Shoehorning a society into an ideology strikes me as an enemy of freedom.
As for the "perfect" free society - waht's the point when there's nobody else to exploit? "Self-exploitation" just leads to acne and carpal tunnel!


Oh. I just now saw #20775. Excuse me.
