We need less not more Government in our lives. The Ronald Reagan quote was spot on: "I'm from the government, and I'm here to help." <br /><br />And Ronald Reagan was not a Libertarian but he understood full well that the purpose of Centralized Government looks to amass more power and seeks to control the lives of its citizens.Rod Briggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01892085143658761123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2992740250270600844.post-80071310380383780412021-04-29T18:28:56.019-07:002021-04-29T18:28:56.019-07:00That's great Bruce, let's hope the rest of...That's great Bruce, let's hope the rest of the world leaves you "libertarians" homeless, literally and figuratively.<br /><br />Here's some advice. <br />Why don't all you libertarians get together, and go to a remote part of the world, maybe some remote and distant Pacific Island, and you can all live together in your own dissolutional and Dog-eat-dog world, and leave the rest of the world to advance the consciousness of the human racePeter Harrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01804287334740043513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2992740250270600844.post-80940608904418879122021-04-28T20:07:22.456-07:002021-04-28T20:07:22.456-07:00Most bad ideas begin with having the money to fund...Most bad ideas begin with having the money to fund them. I say we put Shark Tank in charge of the budget.<br /><br />Easy example illustrating the difference between Republicans and Libertarians: A lot of Republicans oppose abortion. I'd wager most Libertarians would leave it up to the parents, especially the mother.<br /><br />And what do Catholic Democrats do about their party’s pro-choice platform?<br /><br />There is no political party in this country that is both pro-choice and pro-2A.<br /><br />FUBARMichael Gorbackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05789268342873061299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2992740250270600844.post-32611767865705411352021-04-24T07:27:53.443-07:002021-04-24T07:27:53.443-07:00This rather childish notion that is fostered( on u...This rather childish notion that is fostered( on us? and/ or by us ??) of assigning a person exclusively to a stereotypical ideology is too simplistic e.g. some of my views might be considered Libertarian, some socialist, some authoritarian,some liberal, some communist and some possibly draconian. That is why I do not 'assign' myself to ANY political party. <br />A possibility of why Donald Trump was elected is maybe he did not 'fit' into one of these little boxes i.e. 'a socialist', 'a Libertarian', 'a Democrat' , 'a Republican'.<br />This "transfer wealth" I see as a way to more evenly and fairly distribute the cost of sustaining and improving our ever increasingly complex society. <br /><br />Bruce,your article of Saturday, April 17, 2021 you say: "The greatest wealth transfer in history has already begun and the next crisis will only accelerate the process." but you not say who and what is this wealth that is being transferred, and from and to whom is it being transferred... or perhaps I failed to understand and you can clarify ? <br />Pascalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06059053689764678360noreply@blogger.com
