Fact: the US is bankrupt.
Fact: USD is no longer the world reserve currency.
Fact: the US real economy is comatose.
Whether or not anyone is persuaded that those three facts are true, as facts they have consequences.
Nor are the consequences purely economic.
Some are obviously psychological, especially in the Calvinst context.
The elect has severely contracted, including among them even just those who think they are part of the elect.
i am trying to see your perspective. I agree with alot of what you are saying but you are spewing all sorts of stuff i already know, have heard or is irrelevant to what i have asked you. You seem to me like an arrogant (perhaps well-read) blow hard who takes pleasure in citing lots of philosophers and thinkers and ramming your well rehearsed rhetoric down peoples throats and expecting us to be grateful you did. This is a purely selfish “look at how clever i am” exercise for you
“you are spewing all sorts of stuff i already know”
Haven’t learned anything then, AlexBlondie892.
You must be very young and cocksure.
Do you have a proprietary interest in your ideology?
Rehearsed rhetoric? You really are slow.
Why don’;t you say something that requires an original response and see what you elicit.
Is “clever” a perjorative term in your dictionary, AlexBlondie92?
Free Markets with a Constitutional Federal Government., the rights that are not enumerated in the Constitution remain with the state. if you don’t agree with the state you live in, vote with your feet
No Government is Anarcho-capitalism.
Your right IMO on the enforcing state. you would need a Judicial system to enforce contracts.
they didn’t buy it , they took over the monetary system & stole it.
“…i have heard before or (most significant here) is irrelevant “. I have already offered you plenty of things for you to respond to and you have failed to respond coherently, thus my frustration. “YOUNG AND COCKSURE”? not only is this incredibly patronising (using my age to undermine me) but i have been the exact opposite of cocksure. I was asking you questions in an attempt to try and understand your point of view……….
lets stop this abuse now, i admit i probably started it but: Young and cocksure? What the fuck is that? the one that offended me the most was SLOW! this is a joke! i am sorry i accused you of being an arrogant blow hard, this was merely a vain attempt to get you to respond directly to what i had asked you. If you are not going to respond then im off to bed. its half 3 in the morning here and i have college in about 5 hours
Rothbard as a few virtues. Bastiat has more because his context is limited.
The theory of Anarcho-Capitalism is fatally flawed in several regards.
The manner in which Capitalism changes into Finance Capitalism hinges on “money” and “profit”, but there is a psychological dimension even most Marxists have neglected to consider.
If you have not read Lenin on Finance Capitalism you are too handicapped to talk to constructively.
Yes, AlexBlondie–you started the more abusive comments.
IN RESPONSE TO YOU CLEVER PEJORITIVE COMMENT: I think you know its not. Don’t embarrass yourself, you have been reasonably dignified up until now don’t get petty.
There are no such things as “free” markets.
“Law” is as buyable as any state, especially in the American legal system, which is designed to be bought.
The way you used “clever” suggested it was pejorative–no?
simply-no
Do you consider yourself an “individual” davidpark68? And what might that mean in your view?
@snowbaordguru 1000 apologies, I mistook you for a libertarian. The statement “there have never been free markets” line threw me. Usually that is the libertarian justification for why their political theory never worked. Sorry.
The “free market” is a Right Wing utopian fantasy as an ideology.
In practice most Capitalists also know they do not excist and always move toward controlling them in their own self-interest.
This leads to the last monopolistic and imperalistic Finance Capitalist stage, which is the US right now.
The pattern has occurred before.
The US is bankrupt and on the verge of economic collapse.
This is directly due to Finance Capitalism.
Without radical restructruring the only question is how much blood and chaos there is ahead.
cenk is a crypto-Right Wing Capitalist regressive.
Capitalism hinges upon and produces poverty, not only domestically (for cheap labor) but around the world.
Right on.
point number one sucked. cenk go listen to milton friedman, more regulations do not make a better market place
Notice cenk’s plan is for “Financial Recovery” not for “Economic Recovery.”
He is just another regressive Capitalist hired hand.
He has no idea what is going on.
Friedman had a major role in producing this mind-boggling mess.
@mopsius What
You my friend have not listened to Friedman very well then.
Friedman is a slobbering moron. His nonsense played a direct role in the collapse.
