I knew I headscissored you for too long. You've gone completely mad due to lack of oxygen supply. Sorry about that. Big Grin

If one's goal is to remove corruption in the living... nothing more than a complete purge of life will suffice. And then it will just become corrupted again.

Definitely scissored you too long.

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.

You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

That's because you first have to translate it to American, and then cut that into english. It's like translating english straight to japanese: it takes a bit of adjustment Wink

And that currency being the Amero.

There is no Amero. The currency is conspiracy theory
I remember when they said that prior to the inception of the currency that is now traded by a supranational union comprising 27 member states.
However, my point did not speak to the certain inception of the North American Union nor it's currency, the Amero. It projected as to what is bandied about as to happen given the EU is already in place.
And to clarify a broad misconception that runs rampant on the Internet, the Amero is not a conspiracy theory.
It was the subject of a paper entitled, The Case for the Amero:The Economics and Politics of a North American Monetary Union. Authored by Herbert G. Grubel, Professor of Economics (Emeritus), Simon Fraser University.

From there an independent company started to mint tokens in keeping with the design the Professor described in his paper and started selling them on-line. And after that the story flourished to what it is today. However, the Amero case predated what became the fable of one north American currency.

Clueless as to the import of that remark.

Quote:For a government on such a large scale to exist we must first lose the rights to freedom, happiness and all our rights to power and wealth

I have no idea what you mean by 'freedom. We have no right to either power or happiness,either innately or by law,at least in my country. The US declaration of independence mentions "the the pursuit of happiness" as a self evident right,along with life and 'liberty' (whatever that is). The notion is romantic and naive. As far as I'm aware, there is no such thing as an innate/self evident right.


I'll be fascinated to learn the supporting argument for the notion that our personal rights would necessarily vanish under a single government any more than they do now,at the whim of elected government.

I will be fascinated to hear the responses to my questions above (especially fascinated if I actually get any responses at all - I did not make a sound-bite post so it is probably too long for someone to critically read), particularly the ones about Canadian Liberals and after they have read the entire paper, not just the parts they "cherry pick" to show the grand conspiracy arrayed against the American people.

This is a fair overview of what the original thinking seems to have been:

Really? I love these off-the-cuff bombasts. Could you quantify the scale of government at which "rights to freedom, happiness and all our rights to power and wealth" becomes lost? Could you also identify the how this scale might change with various factors that might effect your power, wealth and happiness?

Do you have money? Do you ever shop for shit you want? Are you allowed to go and do things that are pleasurable or relaxing to you? well lets say there is no money, you cant get stuff you want, and you most definenatly cannot do things that somebody told you isnt allowed. Little things makes you happy even if you dont notice it, imagine a world with no movies, tv, or any theme parks, video games. It's all gone, now you can only watch bill oriely, you live in an internment camp with your family, you cannot leave it, you cannot relax, you always work, and your never allowed to do anything to oppose your captors. You are property, no longer to be considerd human, because humans beings naturally want to gain wealth, they want to have the power to say no, and do what they want, they naturally try and do things to make them feel better or just better their situation. Well you cant in a one world government.

Im talking about the stuff your born with, not what somebody wrote on a peice of paper and said you can have.
