    Why I'm burning my last bridge with Obama

    I was talking about a hypothetical world in which there is a free market, and btw, the stockholders elect the board of directors who elect the CEO, if you were wondering.

    Rand Paul 2016

    Why does it matter whether he is a "fringe" candidate or not. The point being that you can judge him by his words and his positions, but brushing him off as a "fringe" candidate is a childish tactic.

    The Top Five Obamacare Myths, Debunked

    Yes, that is the concept of health insurance, but it's voluntary. Additionally, health insurance shouldn't cover preventative screening in the same way that car insurance doesn't cover oil changes. Now, the one argument that you make that is not valid is implying that we must adopt a...

    An Insight Into the Psychology of an Internet Forum

    "The Respectable Folks" by Henry David Thoreau The respectable folks,-- Where dwell they? They whisper in the oaks, And they sigh in the hay; Summer and winter, night and day, Out on the meadow, there dwell they. They never die, Nor snivel, nor cry, Nor ask our pity With a wet eye. A sound...

    Anger, Disbelief as Obama Defends US Invasion of Iraq

    It's not Bush's foreign policy. Somehow, someway, Americans have got this illusion that military adventurism abroad started with Bush. It started way before him. This is Teddy Roosevelt's foreign policy, Woodrow Wilson's foreign policy, FDR's foreign policy, Ike's foreign policy, so on and so...

    Why I'm burning my last bridge with Obama

    Corporations are groups created by the government, but a company is different and it represents the people because the ultimate vote one has is in the free market.

    My Idea For Welfare

    This is flat out the most ridiculous argument I continue to hear everywhere. Just because it doesn't exist doesn't mean it shouldn't exist. It's a theory at this point. The iPhone didn't exist at one point, does that mean that it was a worthless idea, no.

    Busted: Libertarian magazine falsely claims poor families can buy sex toys with food

    Re: Busted: Libertarian magazine falsely claims poor families can buy sex toys with f Reason is more pseudo-libertarian. They're not really into the Non-Aggression Principle thing.

    Why I'm burning my last bridge with Obama

    Yes, then we can force every person to vote and threaten to throw them in jail if they don't, sure. Voting is a right, rights are voluntary, and therefore, voting is voluntary. To make it compulsory reduces the value of voting even further than the low position it already occupies in the same...

    Rand Paul 2016

    It's funny, I never call progressive candidates "dumb" or "extremist" and I don't appreciate the condescending tone of "extremism" that many progressives have. If by "extremist" you mean, "he has scruples", then use those words instead of making an uneducated and uncivilized attack based on...

    Where should the line be for a public school's authority over students?

    Let's get this straight, the school has no responsibility to discipline the students unless an activity occurs on school grounds or affects activities on school grounds. The school does not have the right to suspend or in any other way discipline a student in situations where the student...

    The Top Five Obamacare Myths, Debunked

    1. The video perpetuates the left-right illusion. Yeah, the left wing media doesn't spread myths. 2. All media is propaganda by definition because it is information that isn't already known by the viewer. There are some interesting passages in the book 1984 about this if you wish for more info...

    Your Opinion on this Video Clip

    Finally, the username comes in handy somewhere. George Carlin, a comedian with such sophisticated humor that he can choose any topic and make it hilarious and true. I especially like his routines about the self esteem movement, those are hilarious.

    Question for Pro-Lifers[W:79]

    The 9th Amendment, that's where it is. The Constitution only reaffirms your natural rights, it does not enumerate rights to be given to you by the government.

    Rand Paul 2016

    He walks a fine line. Quite the impressive politician, but I'll reserve my judgement until he is in the debates advocating for liberty.
