Well, I for one do not support theft AKA taxation no matter what it is used for. We are taught as children not to steal yet it is OK for Government to. How is that moral? Higher education does not guarantee sophisticated people around us. I am a very early high school dropout and have an above average intelligence and have learned a lot how the real world functions. If anything the track record of public education has dumbed down the masses more then anything, recall the Prussian model that does not allow people to so much think for themselves and introduce critical thinking and sound reasoning. If anything it has created brainwashed and uneducated masses. History proves this so there is no debate there. The Nazi's used the same model for the youth.
You don't believe in human induced climate change?
Not when the rest of the solar system is showing rising temperatures due to increased sun spot activity. It's all real science. Also NOAA - National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is seeing the very real possibility of another global downturn in temperatures in the coming decades. The same thing occurred in the 1700s. I would post links but I can guarantee there is all sorts of data out there but please keep an open mind about it. I spent years coming to my conclusion and I am still learning.
Don't want firearms restriction? (Hi Michael
)
Because we have a natural human right to self-defense against aggressors. Someone breaking into my home threatening my loved ones are going to get shot. The Police will arrive minutes after. How is that any way justified without a tool, an equalizer being a firearm? Remove firearms and crime goes up. There are stats all over the internet of such cases. Personal horrific stories from the defenseless, historical examples and so on. The Nazi's took away the Guns, guess what happened?
Are against free health care for everyone? Etc.
Again, there is no such thing a free healthcare, Bob has to rob John to pay for this. Free Market healthcare works best.

Yes and some of Noam I agree with and other parts seems like he is still advocating a violent state in some areas. It was a lot of data to take in but I do not agree with no one man 100%. I am a rather free-thinker. I use caution and allow my moral compass to guide me to seeing what works and what does not.
I do not agree with Stefan with all of his ideas, far from it. What we agree on is the actions of the State being immoral. How we solve these matters are another thing but I tell you what. Using the violence of the State is not a solution. If we can not solve our own issues through peaceful cooperative means then the only other alternative is using Government to do it and all throughout history, they use violence, lies, fraud and manipulation against the citizenry. Is this how the world should be ran? Anyone with a sound moral compass would say no.
Debates like this are not pointless. I once to believed in the State to solve our problems. It took a very short time to change my overall ways of thinking. I opened my mind and educated myself. Listened to the Austrian Economists, The Classic Liberals, Milton Friedman, Thomas Sowell, Peter Shiff, Tom Woods, Larken Rose, Adam Kokesh, Ron Paul and others I can not think of at the moment.
If you want to know more, Adam Kokesh has a free book called Freedom and Larken Rose has a book called The Most Dangerous Superstition.

I choose to be free and own myself but as free agents, we can make that decision on our own. I leave that up to you and everyone else.
