Question on Political Stances of Those here

No it wouldn't. Where the hell did you get that idea?

 

Bernie madoff wouldn't have been legal because it's called stealing. Prosecuting people for stealing does not interfere with capitalism.

 

This is highly debatable. I wonder why the Austrian economists saw this coming, while others didn't. The military doesn't belong in a discussion about free markets because is it a government entity.

 

i agree i dont see what the military has to do with it either. it looks like something he just threw into his post.

 

oh, sorry i think i had a point to make with that i must have just not gotten to it. sorry i was on about a quarter when i said that.

 

Personally I'd have to say that I am anti political, I do not agree with political parties at all, nor do I agree with any of the modern system we have instituted in the U.S.A. I agree with George Washington in saying "They [political parties] serve to organize faction, to give it an artificial and extraordinary force; to put, in the place of the delegated will of the nation, the will of a party, often a small but artful and enterprising minority of the community; and, according to the alternate triumphs of different parties, to make the public administration the mirror of the ill-concerted and incongruous projects of faction, rather than the organ of consistent and wholesome plans digested by common counsels, and modified by mutual interests."

 

And what does that mean to you?

 

What would you replace the modern systems with?

 

Possibly:

We've seen how well that works with Wall St. But actually I think Washington was speaking out against that minority. Funny thing is I don't think DC heard him.In fact I think they sold themselves out to that minority. And continue to do so even today.

 

No what Maddoff did was legal to a point, question is it still going to be legal tomorrow?

 

What exactly was it Maddoff was selling?

 

good question im not really sure but ill look that up. it had something to do with stocks. im not sure if somehow he was pocketing money that was supposed to be going into peoples stock portfolios or what.

 

Nothing Maddoff did was legal, hence why he's in jail for longer then a person lives from birth to death

 

Fraud is not legal.

 

o what are u talking about fraud is fun. i thought everyone does it.

 

Hah! Since when does legal = fun?

 

im not completely sure but fire is legal and fun

 

Ah but lightning most things on fire is illegal

 

not true. bonfires are legal (atleast where i live)

 

I pointed out that a libertarian free market would only end in a plutocratic oligarchy some time ago.

It seems to me that needs to be addressed and if not it causes such a major hole in such a stance that it leaves it without much credit.
