Reply to Being Libertarian does NOT equal Drug User in Politics PolMach Forums

I am your diehard vehement Anti-Socialism Libertarian and avid rabid Ayn Rand Fan. Her philosophy is great but am I or have I ever done drugs? No, unless you count the ones Medical Doctors prescribe me but am I against the Drug War? Yes, because damn do we really need to waste time and money on a useless stoner? Sorry I am NOT my brother's (or sister's) keeper, let him/her rot if that person does not wish to better them self. After all you

Reply to TWO Washington States? in Politics PolMach Forums

This is where state powers end and Federal Powers begin, after all we cannot adjust the United States flag to fit the whim of every Tom, Dick, Harry, or Cat just because one part of the state differs from another part whether it is economic, philosophical, psychological, or political. This is Civil War territory that has already been treaded, this is one issue I still believe that the Central Government shou

Funny thing is the United States is on par with other countries for being fat, and the whole fat study had its figures blown out of proportion. Link I read in a magazine (Newsweek or something like that) that geneticists are finding out that it is just plain old genetics that some people are finding out that a white man is more

Reply to No matter what I write in Politics PolMach Forums

Why is Liberalism not "free" but will exact a toll from people both by monetary means and social/moral means? Why is Socialism a preferred system of government when it turns the government into a big brother for everybody that ends up making people weak mentally, physically, and socially? Why is the bashing of any nation the "in" thing? I dislike people who head a government or a form of government but not the nation itself that

Generally, unless I am mistaken Anti-Socialism (not Social context but political ideology) means I am against Socialism because I used the prefix Anti. Unless I am mistaken.

Reply to I am NOT my Brother's Keeper: My View Against Socialism, etc in Politics JoeUser Forums

Sorry I disabled comments but I thought most people wouldn't comment anyways so why leave it open, well I decided just now to open it up to comments just in case anybody wanted to type something. Also, more written material against Socialism can be found in Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged or in the excerpts from her books in For the New Intellectual . Anybody proposing socialism in my book is promoting the society and force and

Reply to Jackson, Cosby in Politics PolMach Forums

I think it is the fact that every sane individual knows that Bill Cosby is a learned individual who will attack your mind with reason and argument instead of attacking a person physically. Or he will make you laugh as he turns you into Jell-O!! - X

Reply to Is President Bush the Face of Evil? in Politics PolMach Forums

Turning an opponent's agenda into your strength and not his weakness may be a better victory than a person could hope for. Compromise and fix their agenda to work for you but don't just oppose all progress together and call it progress. - X

Well History is sort of fun, though the tests in the class are killer, first part is a take home essay test, than the actual test is Multiple choice, coupled with short essay questions regarding identification of terms and answering short essay questions.

Okay I said I would make it formal and all proper like but forget it this round!! Anyways, I have watched episodes 1-5 (by the SARS fansubbing group) of Gokusen Live Action. Gokusen is based on the Anime which is based on the manga and is good I must say. For those not in the know Anime is Japanese Animation and Manga are the Japanese Comic

Reply to History Test in Politics JoeUser Forums

The death of the world was caused by: A. People not tolerating each other. B. People believing they are better than others (both philosophically speaking and physical/mental abilities) C. People believing that their faith is right (even if that faith is no faith at all as in Atheism or absolute faith as in Christianity, Islam, Judaism) D. People who keep repeating the first three but hold onto the grasp that they are right and love

Ayn Rand, William James, and my current life... in Philosophy JoeUser Forums

Well I polished off Ayn Rand's Anthem and having been reading the Basic Writings of both Nietzsche and Kant (good stuff but slow going). I recommend Anthem for anyone who wants to read a 100 page novella about a man who is born to a socialist state, the book is a good counterargument to socialism as well makes me use the word I more often than the word we.

Seasonal Job is over but right now I am busy with volunteering with the Red Cross and catching up on my philosophical / psychological reading: from Nietzsche to Plato, from Rand to Kant, from Jung to Reich, etc. So, besides that I have been withdrawn from politics and everyday current affairs because I am on vacation...HA!
