That's good stuff, I've seen it a few places before, but it's worth going over again. This needs to be taught in schools, not some of the crap they indoctrinate the kids with now

Democracy - Republic. One of the things i really enjoy educating some people on. Nobody i meet hardly ever knows the difference, and are usually confused about what we really have. Interesting eh, someone not knowing what form of government they are under lmao

I agree, I doubt they even teach this anymore in schools.

Hey now, ease up on the anarchists . For real, though, 'hiring' a protection officer would still be acceptable anarcho-capitalism. And that right-left paradigm has only been the case for a couple hundred years. At the time of Lockean thought, it was the advocate of individual liberty that was 'left' and the advocate of authoritarianism that was 'right'. It's a pretty arbitrary designation, I guess, but it's worth noting that if you read philosophy from before about 1600, the relationship is backwards.

But it would be nice if kids were taught that the fasco-nationalist-socialist-dictators were all in the same camp. I was seriously hindered in even talking to a lot of kids at my university by there lack of understanding of that.

I am cowering in the corner, while the adult speaks. You freaking Right-wing extremist.

Yeah, according to that napolitano memo that's getting so much attention, i think if i ever darkened the door of my local DHS office, i'd be spirited away to some 'freedom cage' somewhere.
