#195991- Libertarianism Defined? Message #196997
From: David G. Holmes The Issues Forum · Individual Liberty November 19, 1991 7:49 PM
Stephen, By destroying democratic gov't, you make it less attractive for those who "try" to subvert it….but by no means are they always successful. You also destroy the right of people to protect themselves and organize themselves for selfprotection. And, of course, you set up the ideal conditions for the…
#195931- Libertarianism Defined? Message #196996

Gerald, As to examples of why I think that Libertarians are into tyranny and oppression. Just hang around and read some of their messages. Some of the most telling 'evidence' is the spasmodic denunciations of political democracy that many of them engage in. This includes ranting about the 'evil' of…

Ian, Once again you've escaped reality entirely. First, there is a fundamental difference in the business of 'roads' vs the business of 'hot dog stands'. The fact that you can price yourself out of the hot dog business even if you own the only stand in no way is an…

Bruce, "Trilateral and CRF" My goodness, the conspiracy theories are out and about aren't they? Would you by any chance be a member or supporter of DUKE's NAAWP? Regards, Dave
#196274- DUKE WINS!!!! WHAT NEXT? Message #196992

Bruce, In the case of Duke…the message and the messager are one and the same. And, most of his supporters fully understand that fact. Regards, Dave
#195908- Pol. Cor. Dictionary Message #196991
From: David G. Holmes The Issues Forum · Political Issues November 19, 1991 7:48 PM
John, Interesting…don't you think that 'reason' is refuted by the 'reality' that Freud found in human kind…namely the fact that in any individual, irrationality can over come reason, and that an otherwise rational person can be irrational on a particular subject or in a particular circumstance? As to shaking up…

John, "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich" is a definitive history of the Nazi regime by an American journalist who saw a good deal of it. It's well in excess of 1000 pages, so a summary is not possible. However, there was an excellent TV documentary based on…
#196373- #National Health Care Message #196989
From: David G. Holmes The Issues Forum · Political Issues November 19, 1991 7:48 PM
David, So….you are categorically stating that there were no cases within the last two years in Texas where people were turned away from hospital emergency rooms for reasons other than the capacity was exceeded? That never happens anywhere anymore? Can you be a little more specific as to the federal…
