I didn't say all libertarians are like me. I said a true libertarian is like me. Big difference
Oh spare us all the lame ass attempt by you to dodge the issue.....whenever libertarian lunkheads are caught flat footed WRONG about their dogma, they try to play games.
"True libertarians?" Are you so ******* deluded that you think a "true libertarian" is the ONLY person that's insured like you are? Newsflash, bunky....there are Democrats, Republicans, liberals, conservatives, progressives, tea partiers, independents and new conservatives that have done the same as you.....the REALITY is that ONLY libertarian lunkheads are deluded enough to think that they are somehow wholly independent of the benefits of our federal gov't. Like I said before, your insurance coverage DOES NOT cover the infrastructure repair of your town/city/state needed for all that nifty "comfort" you're so smug about. Think it through before you type next time, my empty skull libertarian.
There is no right or wrong here. The OP was an attempt to slam those who identify themselves as libertarian. If one who says he is libertarian and actually lives by his beliefs then he won't have to take government aid. So where you get right or wrong about that I don't know and it seems neither do you.
I point out the FACTS, you libertarian bullshit artist! The FACT that your political bullhorn Ron Paul has been DOCUMENTED expousing a philosophy that is TOTALLY out of step with historical and current FACTS regarding federal aid in times of disaster. I linked to FACTS to support my statements. And as the chronology of the posts shows, it has been YOU who have done nothing but try to pass off your opinion, supposition and conjecture as a substitute for those facts I presented. I PROVED that YOU are full of shit, plain and simple. So your attempt to distort and "gray area" everything is nothing more than a piss in the wind.
Where did I ever say that
only libertarians have insurance? That's your own inadequacies that are making you defensive. And If you bothered to read what I said earlier you'd see that I said a state government getting federal aid in not the same as individual people getting aid. You might want to slow down when you read no one will make fun of you if you move lips either
YOU stated that "true" libertarians do as you do when I merely pointed out what malarky your original statements were. Your other lame attempt to save your sorry ass by trying to separate federal aide to the states and individuals came later in the chronology ofthe posts...and THAT is a ******* joke because State aid goes to HELPING THE PEOPLE IN THAT STATE with infrastructure repair and restoration. Federal aid to individuals is IN ADDITION to that of the state, you idiot. So try as you might, your little delusion of independence from the federal gov't in times of disaster is just that...a delusion. Unless you can provide PROOF that your water, electricity, food quality, etc., are all wholly independent of State filtered federal regulation/assistance. If not, then you're just blowing smoke as usual.
They could afford insurance if it was a priority. I hear people like you whine all the time that they can't afford shit but then I look and notice they have a newer car than I do, a more expensive cell phone than I do, twice as many clothes in their closet as I do etc.
Which doesn't change the FACTS that Ron Paul is ass backwards wrong regarding federal aide to the States in times of disaster, as my links clearly proved regarding Texas. WTF is your problem, Skull? Do you think stating all these moot points will somehow erase the other historically documented FACTS that blows your Spartan-esque wet dream out the window? Grow up!
I have never been on an AOL board so once again you are assuming facts not in evidence. In fact this is the only board on which I post. I don't have time to surf multiple message boards.
You're a liar, because you sure as hell put in a LOT of time surfing to get to this particular board. And your writing style and EXACT copy of your prejudiced rants about other people's possessions and purchasing habits means that either you are the same person under a different screen name or that all you libertarian lunkheads/neocons don't have an original thought between you.
And I'm not pissed at anyone in fact I know I make more than most people here. I just handle my money better. I own a business and have 12 employees. I know what they make and I know what I make. I hear them whine just like sheep like you do that they can't afford this or that but 4 out of the 12 bought brand new cars last year. I have never bought a new car and never will because it's a waste of money. I don't trade in my cell phone every 6 months when the next latest greatest gadget comes out.
Yep, that's the EXACT same fabricated bullshit you used a few years back. You keep claiming you know EXACTLY what your neighbors make and how they spend their money....HOW you know this you NEVER explain to the reader. Now if you're bitching about your employees alone, then you've hired 12 of the stupidest people on earth, who would ALL be broke within a year if what you say were true (unless you are paying them WAY, WAY above the standard scale while offering health benefits above and beyond the state requirements)...and 12 people are NOT indicative of an entire state, let alone an entire country.
No one begrudges you your business earnings, and quite frankly no one cares. What people WON'T allow is bitter assholes like you with some sort of axe to grind to prevent them from gov't assistence in times of crisis. **** you, buddy. You work your side of the street, and everyone else will work theirs. And since YOU use the commons like everyone else regardless of economic status, that federal aid is going to help YOU continue your business, plain and simple. Deal with it.
My wife and I live on 5 acres in the country and are currently building a new house. And we're doing it without loans. I won't be saddled with debt like you are.
Man, this fairy tale of yours just keeps growing and growing like a survivalist's wet dream. So you run a business with only 12 employees that is so amazingly successful that you can afford all types of amazing insurance (health and financial) and build an additional a country house on 5 acres wholly out of pocket. In short, you're an upper middle class (rich?) guy WHO USES THE COMMONS JUST LIKE YOUR EMPLOYEES, AND THEREFORE BENEFITS IN TIMES OF DISASTER FROM FEDERAL ASSISTANCE TO YOUR STATE. You're business isn't worth a damn if the COMMONS infrastructure is down, genius....and if your city, state doesn't have the scratch to fix it, that's when the feds come in. Back to square one....like Ron Paul, you're full of shit...unless you have your own meat and water and product inspection service.
No it's you who don't know the difference between public and private property.
Your sour grapes mean NOTHING, my skull fucked friend. The chronology of the post clearly demonstrates who can back up what they say with links to documented facts, and who is just blowing smoke out his libertarian lame ass.
Where did I say buying a generator was a political statement? And you'd be surprised how many people don't have generators around me. They are not common place in the least. Where did the term survivalist come into the conversation? If being financially savvy and protecting ones property and assets against disaster is being a survivalist then what do you call sheep like you who wait for other people to bail them out?
Why do you keep accusing me of saying things when the chronology of the post clearly shows I did not. Are you ******* stupid, incapable of comprehending what you read or just a liar? YOU bragged about having a generator following your "true libertarian" assertion..alluding to that your political/social philosophy enables you alone with the forsight to have such. I just pointed out that is not the case...and I'm sure YOU would be surprised as to how many people outside your limited scope do have a generator! But since we're not discussing documented fact, but rather your sheer personal speculation, that's a pointless conversation. I also merely pointed out that your BS is very much akin to the "survivalist" philosophy of the 1980's......which is hysterical given that THOSE assholes are for the most part now in their 60's and either taken part in federal programs like Social Security and Medicare/medicaid...because the stock market in the last 25 years REALLY fucked up a lot of small investors.
Again who brought up a politician in this conversation. I never mentioned Ron Paul did I. Personal responsibility has nothing to do with politicians. So maybe you should start taking care of yourself and don't put too much faith in politicians.
Maybe you should stop braying like an ass, my skull fucked friend. I started this thread to point out how WRONG Ron Paul is on this matter regarding Dallas, TX. YOU and like minded libertarian toadies jumped in to defend that philosophy....and were proven flat out WRONG with VERIFIED, DOCUMENTED FACT! Now you're pissed because you can't deny those facts without looking the fool, so you just stamp your widdle feet about "personal responsibility" while desperately trying to ignore the FACT that YOU use and DEPEND on the COMMONS just like the people you have such contempt for.
You people don't seem to understand that if you take care of yourself you get better results than you would if you wait for the ******* government
More delusional rhetoric parroted by another willfully ignorant libertarian lunkhead. I noticed you avoided all the FACTS I previously presented that disproved your original assertions, and instead just burden us all with more of your supposition, conjecture and fabricated claptrap.
You're one sad Skull-fucked joke of a pilot, bunky. Carry on.
