@Kong RE: Feudalism, I would prefer this because it is fair and morally just in comparison to socialism and democracy.
RE: rational self interest, you can not act outside of it, when you feed a homeless person you are doing it for yourself, not for them. Just try to wrap your head around that.
RE: the king, didn't muh school tell me in france they killed some king? Point is, you know who's in charge and who to blame. And as far as the countries doing 'better' than us, or so it seems, like I said wait. The system is unsustainable and will collapse. Socialism makes people poor not capitalism. 'corporatism' is just as bad. And when the money becomes sound everything will work out into its proper place.
DB, Y U NO LIEK FREE MARKET. you think by putting guns to people's heads is the way to help people? You're sick. Tyrannical.
Also trollmasters, I qualify for all sorts or govt. assistance none of which I accept. I pay for the heating In my home, I pay for my food, etc. I paid for lunch in school and I didn't exactly have a choice between going to those crappy places when I was a kid but as soon as I realized what it was all about I dropped out. I would sooner beg on the street than accept that stolen money to feed myself, but im not a total piece of crap. But I love the common arguments for statism, "Muh roads, muh schools etc." Lets not even get into why there can be no such thing as a good cop.
When I was like 16 years old i decided to become an off the books entrepreneur. I survive on my own and pay no taxes yeah? even better.
Ayn Rand had some great ideas, that are irrefutable, such is the nature of logic, but still, broken clock twice a day thing.

"Socialism, such a great idea you need a gun and a cage to force everyone along."

OR, "Socialism: now we can all be EQUALly poor, except our masters." My argument is that of reason and morality, is it that hard to understand that democracy and socialism are evil?
