I certainly did not intend on avoiding any debate points. Some things I may have found a relevent connection difficulty with but I went out of my way to explain that. Some things Im just not going to debate with you, such as prohibition or The Wealth of Nations for simple fear of the fact that we could be debating these things for the next year and a half and still have differing perceptions. Some things you have sent back to me thoroughly out of context and misrepresented and I have appropriately tried to clear those up as well. Today, for instance, you sent back a post to me where I went out of my way to cite a specific example of a case where sometimes individual rights are not the foundation of the argument. You conveniently threw out my example and again accused me of all but stomping on the individual rights of minorities by giving the appearance of a blanket statement on my part when the specific example was given. Its very difficult to carry the conversation on further at that point because Im back to square one, due to the fact that the main point of my opinion was omitted. poet the brutal dissenting dictator.
