Re: "Liberty and Tyranny" by Mark Levin

"Nope. Besides most Western countries started out with limited suffrage anyway, and as we can see things got messed up when there was universal suffrage."

Most Western countries started with Kings....

Most Western countries started without any suffrage at all..

I allways thought it is an advancement that now people are not toys of the despot anymore.

Now they are toys of elites, many of which have power because of universal suffrage, like unions.

Re: "Liberty and Tyranny" by Mark Levin

I dont know how it works in the US.. in europe we do not vote any unions into power and they are not really strong.
If u are unable to do things properlly in your country dont blame the system for it.

and now at least people can cast a vote for who they want to be the toy of..

Re: "Liberty and Tyranny" by Mark Levin

Heh, in the US, unions are sometimes more powerful than big business.

Otherwise, I stand by my position. Limited suffrage would solve a lot of problems in the US. Maybe it's not appropriate for other countries, but it certainly is for the US.

Re: "Liberty and Tyranny" by Mark Levin

why suffrage at all then when u only want the top 10% to vote?
just install a despote...we can send u some heirs of our former emperor....

@ Schneip.....My answer was to the idiots above.

As to my workers ?   I ENCOURAGE them to do their own thing....Problem is, they are happy NOT to have the responsibility that goes w/owning and running a business.


Same as the DEMONs of the Fortune 500 Execs.....
The work and dedication to their field that it takes to be a CFO, a COO, a Regional Exec, .... a board member.....a CEO !!...

Yet, the LEFT Demonizes them...... as what ??   Greedy ?? 


You that are in your Union 9-5 er, locked in mediocrity DESPISE those that are acheivers.

You in your PROTECTED Govt. job (not the basic needs) 9-5, mon-Fri,....sometimes 4 day work weeks.......you all in an endless waste.

And then, the crooks and theives that game the system.....



You all....you all are the Obama Crowd.  The Socialists, the Marxists,  the Non-productive who cry when no one can take care of them.

Re: "Liberty and Tyranny" by Mark Levin

my mom's brother...lost an arm in a sawmill because the owner didn't obey safety laws, and he became a union rep for 30 years

my dad got a job as a union accountant because of his uncle in the union (who later did time for jury tampering) and his first week got told off for working too fast and shaming the other union accountants.

me, I worked in a pressroom where we never heard about teh union because we didn't earn enough to afford them.  They don't represent all blue collar workers, just ones with enough $$$ to pay for the union for its trouble.

so I'm fine with union representation shrinking.  its there if people really wanna pay for it.  They're not the knights in shining armor they pretend to be though


oh and there aint never was no such thing as a mafia
and it aint around organized labor now
so stfu about it.

Re: "Liberty and Tyranny" by Mark Levin

BW: I said nothing about me defining sides, merely that you think I am on the other side to you, and that I am nothing lime you so how could I even be in the same game as you to be on the other side? I am so far above you its not funny.. I mean I can think coherant thoughts, whilst you... you struggle to understand reality...

Also I wouldn't want to be a kid around you, not with those thoughts you have in your head over small children, esp your own...

So, why dont you make him happy.   He likes dudes sucking on something.......seems like your dept.


other side ?.... above me ??  ROFL.


Guess what, as any good conservative....I could give a flying monkey where you think you might be.

All I know is, that I am a productive member of society, that the rest of the low lives seem to think I owe someone else.....because I actually provide.

Funny........how the Leftists give NOTHING....but think all should give to others........



Yea...thats you FOOL.   A nobody.....but you are above me.....rofl.   Kool,  Im fine w/that.

Re: "Liberty and Tyranny" by Mark Levin

Thats the thing BW, you seem to think you and right wingers are the only "productive" ones.... you know nothing about me and yet you think I am non-productive... in fact you think I am left wing... i know left wing people who laugh at that idea...

I couldn't care less about Skoe or what he puts where, you seem to know more about it, so maybe you have offered to him? Did he turn you down cause you are too fat? Maybe you thought he was younger than he actually was? Did he dissapoint you?

Also BW I don't hide, any more than you do, and I wouldn't have to "troll" if this board had some actual intelligence... but you and everyone else (bar say Kemp, Zarf, maybe IA maybe Yell) have a collective IQ of about 0.001. I would find it more productive arguing with some rocks.

Now why don't you go back into what ever hiding place you have been the last few months and stay there, since nothing you say has any relevance to reality anyway and we can find a kindergarten pupil who would make more sense than you... Assumin you didn't rape it first

Re: "Liberty and Tyranny" by Mark Levin

I am embarrassed to say it, but my 7-8 years on this forum has taught me how to argue. Of course, I rarely bother to seriously argue here anymore because of the limited time I have and because only a few can measure up to my skills. For those who are able to argue with me, the result of the argument tends to be that the argument can go no further because of a difference of values, we are in agreement, or I'm dismissed as a psychopath, lol.

Otherwise, as I said earlier in this thread, it comes down to a difference in values. Left-wingers aren't necessarily stupid if they truly value the security of an omnipresent government and welfare state, but it's seriously not my taste. My values are personal excellence, small government and self-reliance, and the debate with lefties can go no further. I guess if some crackpot lefty wanted to argue that the free market was less efficient than a planned economy then I would have a reason for calling one stupid, but I haven't seen any lefty here do that except for maybe xeno.

since it seems to become so popular in this forum i have to add one personal experiance.

people who really are skilled in something do not need to say that about themselves.
the more a person praises himself.. the more hot aitr it usually is.

Re: "Liberty and Tyranny" by Mark Levin

Yea....   I agree Schniep.  Except I feel you were pointing at me.... I agree.


This thread is about a Book.  Its about Liberty and Tyranny.
I suggested If anyone cared to EDUCATE themselves on what a Conservative American is, and what he stands for...... this book will probably give you a good Idea.

It Covers Justinian's Position.
Yell's Position.

It covers my position, and others.

Justinian is more libertarian, with a projected military and economic no-holds bar approach.
Yell is more pure libertarian, as I can tell.

I do believe in central banks and monetary policy....more like a Regan conservative.



This book, covers them all.


@ Schniep, I suggest you read it......you will see where we all come from.

@Scharf..... I suggest you can do so as well.

@ Zarf, I highly recommend this book for you.


@ Fool, Skoe and Selur....... Never mind.   Make believe you know it all.


Fool..... you wrote absolutely NOTHING about the thread.
You RARELY have anything to interject about a subject
You are a nuisance, a bother.....
you truly are a jerk or ass take your pick.

It probably makes you feel better........ so Im probably making you happy to read this.

You want to write something productive, you really want to try and be a decent fellow ??

tell us, where you come from, your education, and what you do for a living....because, I have no clue.
Im not sure I really care.....but, it would be a good start.

If you can do this.....JUST MAYBE, I might be able to exchange w/you in a civil manner, and start to have a shred of respect for you.


@ SKOE, you write a little more actual substance......you are in a better position than fool,   but why dont you do the above as well, so maybe I can understand you as well.


Schneip as done so, and we now have very good exchanges on points, because understand him.   As different as we are, we agree to disagree on a lot of issues.

BW: If you have no idea what my education is or what my oppinions are it just re-inforces my point that you are in fact a moron... I bet you don't even know where i live...

I am not repeating all this because it is not my fault you are so incapabale of understanding peoples arguments that you can't take any of it i... and i don't mean in this thread.... i don't make structured arguments anymore because whats the point if most people are like you and flint... moronic and with no clue of any thing real...

As to the book, I think I made my point clear that this, from your small snippet you typed up for us, sounded like the communist manifesto but for stupid right wingers rather than stupid left wingers... why bpther readong something that is stupid and idiotic?
Maybe i will look for it and give it a whirl, you never know it might explain why americans are so stupid...

Re: "Liberty and Tyranny" by Mark Levin

To be frank though, BW, you do end up insulting people with different values than you do. Now while I may have a contemptuous attitude towards some people with different values, depending on what those values are, I don't explicitly insult them personally. That goes nowhere, and there's simply no way to settle a difference of values with facts. I can settle a scientific question with facts, but I can't on big government or small government.

I don't know what else to say, but I don't think your insults accomplish anything do they?
