Any other centrist atheists?

RE: Any other centrist atheists?
Quote: Who would enforce it?
Quote: Yeah we could get the government to do that or somethin

Ryan and frodo, libertarianism =/= anarcho capitalism, your sarcastic comments about (government) enforcing laws and contracts reveal a lack of understanding of the libertarian position(s).

Somebody asked how paying no tax (like GM, GE or something) could be considered a handout, it wouldn't necessarily be, but all the services then offered to you for free would be.


Quote: And how do you propose to end corporatism? How can the free market dissolve corporatism? How can consumers actually do anything about it, when so many rely on huge corporations for so many things?

What do you mean by corporatism?
It's not the mere existence of a big businesses, it's the government being in bed with corporations, and corporations writing the laws in their own favour (either giving themselves money, or restricting entrance to the market for small new competitors...). Which business have had a bailout? Or rely on government handouts? They would have gone (and wouldn't have been able to taken your money for themselves). It won't kill off well run corporations, but it will force them to compete fairly, no restricting their competitors, no writing laws forcing you to involuntarily buy their products, no forcibly taking money from Pete to pay for Paul's yacht. The idea that all corporations want to have to compete fairly in the free market is ludicrous. These corrupt, lumbering, rotton, behemoths cannot compete, the fact that they write laws restricting any possible competition shows how fearful they are of a free market.
Nemo me impune lacessit.
