Nobody is attacking you. We are only discussing your actions regarding what you feel is aggression that you freely participate in. You sling the accusations rather freely at others but you are like the finger pointing blame at another while three of your own point right back at you. Your own statements and actions say this very loudly.
But yet you are impotent to present a single quote from me supporting that claim.Anyone who has spend a modicum of time on this board knows that you believe that it is legitimate for the government to initiate aggression* against society.
So you want to continue the practice of eminent domain. You want to continue the practice of the government initiating violence and taking land owned by others.
My prediction was right from the very start.
You accept the government and its authority to determine property rights. You freely use the benefits of the results of eminent domain. You willingly live on land which was taken from others in aggressive actions.
All of this shows that there is a huge chasm between what you claim to believe in a debate and what you really believe in real life.
Pointing a finger of accusation at me for supporting the same thing that you support and benefit from every day does not serve well your ideology.
For some reason you seem to be under the impression that I am against all government. Not true at all. I only oppose government initiation of aggression. It is particular policies to which I object, not the idea of government itself.
Good luck on convincing the majority of Americans to accept your ideas. It is beliefs and positions just like this which translate into the Libertarian Party not even being able to get a tiny one percent of the popular vote for president.
You say here you are not against government - but yet your own admission is that no functioning government on the entire face of the earth follows the ideology you would have it follow.
Your professed views and practical reality never really seem to meet in the same real world we live in.
And that is how you expect to justify government initiation of aggression? You haven't even put forth an argument that explains why anyone should accept your position.
There is no aggression to justify.
And he doesn't have to, fore he feels that America itself shouldn't exist because we took it from the Indians, and the Mexicans....I sure hope he doesn't own a house, car, or anything produced in this country that he so despises. I wouldn't want him to be a hypocrite...
Funny though, how people like him rail against you owning an house, a car, or making a living in this country he hates while it is perfectly ok for him to do so while he rails against it....pathetic really.
You haven't put forth any argument for why it is acceptable for the government to take a person's house against their will.
I did not realize this was a thread about eminent domain? Are you attempting to hijack it for that purpose? I posted thoughts about how the changing economy is hitting working class families hard and is a structural problem we must deal with.

You then trotted out your old standby about aggression starting in 317 which had nothing to do with the thread or the topic of it or my posts.
The recession ended in June 2009, "your" President has been in charge for over 4 years and the economic results today are worse than when the recession began in December 2007. Obama was hired to fix the problem, if he were in the private sector he wouldn't have lasted 2 years let alone 4 and get four more. Far too many people are too ignorant of economic results and the role of the Federal Govt. Apparently "teachers" like you never really taught them that role.

Why did you reproduce my post before your rant when your reply had not a thing to do with what I said?
