Too bad the subjects in the USSA are incapable of comprehending simple logic...

I ask myself this question daily...

Truth.

@ E Archer: well said... I only hope that we'll enter an age of reason in my lifetime.

When Libertarians use the term "state", they are referring to any form of government, not just the USSA/Russia/PRK/PRC/UK/EU/etc.

It's catchy, just need it to go viral!

Replace "Socialism" with "Any form of government" and the statement is still true.

Not "if", but "when".

This is what Democracy looks like!

Reminds me of a line in Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's "The Gulag Archipelago"... Something about how quickly Stalin's purges would have ended if each person being arrested had fired one bullet at their kidnappers...

Precisely.

I'm still awaiting that revolution...

Right idea, too bad the hypocrite who said it didn't mean it.

Pretty much.

Taking x% of someone's effort or property against their will is by definition immoral (theft = bad). Now to get another 2% of the population to understand that not opposing systematic theft is condemning their children to slavery...

He forgot to look up the definition of "liberty" before vomiting his propaganda on parchment. Then again, his job title indicates his politics....

That "visible hand" of the parasites (politicians) is to beat the freedom out of you, that way you have more time to meditate on your love of Big Brother.

"Although men are born with inherent/inalienable rights to freedom and liberty, it is manifest that some men are willing to ignore that in order to enslave others."

... fixed.
