"Otis Winslow" wrote in message .. . Go he http://www.libertarian.org/index2.html The Hoover Institute is the leading libertarian think tank in America and it is very conservative. In fact, outside the Hoover Institute libertarians have had little power in the US since FDR's Presidency began. Libertarians inside the Republican Party were responsible for the "balanced budget" we had a few years ago. "Tarver Engineering" wrote in message ... "C J Campbell" wrote in message ... So now you have 'conservatives' running around talking about property rights and states' rights Republicans have always supported States' rights, as that is the basis of a republic. (originally created to protect slavery) Democrats wanted the 3/5 law and Republicans were not willing to go to war over it and as long as libertarins could control the purse everyone was willing to leave things be for a while. and protecting large corporations while espousing populist principles. The libertarian wing (once Federalists) of the Republican Party insistthey address the issues of fiscal responsibility and a small central government, but libertarians are out of favor now due to their isolationist tendancies. And you have the 'liberals' running around trying to limit free speech and press, disarming the public, and supporting the worst thugs and despots imaginable in other countries in the name of 'diversity' and 'tolerance.' Racism has always been the Democrats' product. |

: "Judah" wrote in message ... How, exactly, do the rich get richer without taking other people's assets? By applying themselves and earning what they accumulate. If you are smart and work hard you win. If you are dumb and sit at home waiting for the welfare check you lose. Ahhh... So that's why my brilliant seventh grade science teacher is so wealthy, and Mike Tyson, who can barely speak english, is so broke! |

His current net worth is a couple of thousand dollars. Tyson didn't sit home waiting for a government check although he might well end up in that situation. If in fact the science teacher is brilliant the opportunity to increase earnings is readily available. |

"Matt Whiting" wrote in message ... darwin smith wrote: Steven P. McNicoll wrote: Anti-abortion IS pro-life. Even when there is no exception to save the life of the mother? Many conservatives have agreed to this exception. However, it isn't all that clear as very few cases are such that the mother's life is guaranteed to be at risk. The baby's life IS guaranteed to be at risk in an abortion. So even with this exception, you are still guaranteeing a death to save the possibility of a death. I'm still not sure that is a good moral position to aspire to, but at least it is better than most abortions which are simply murder for the sake of convenience. That isn't morally acceptable. Execution in the name of revenge is not morally acceptable either. Deliberately killing a person is murder and is a moral crime. |
