"Life, liberty, and property do not exist because men have made laws. On the contrary, it was the fact that life, liberty, and property existed beforehand that caused men to make laws in the first place." - Frédéric Bastiat

Oh joyous day...I am so happy that Al has decided to visit me and enlighten me with his juvenile wisdom. Just for his and everyone else who may be curious as to the identity of the gentleman in my Avatar - He is the great abolitionist and voluntaryist Lysander Spooner who also happened to be a Deist and subscribed to no organized religion - as do I.

^^^ another child who blocks people when confronted with an alternate view. Ignorance is indeed bliss, and when one silences opposing views they are only perpetuating their own willful ignorance. I couldn't even respond to his comment below. Now who is stalking who??? LOL

@BigDaddyHarrison Merry Solstice to you also Harrison. Ben should have never been playing in that game, way too banged up. Oh well, hope we meet SF in the SB, we like playing the NFC West.

Hey MD, during our last debate regarding monetary policy's role in the 2008 financial crisis, as well as all recessions preceeding it, you made some great points and I countered that the convoluted derivatives market was the greatest contributor to market inefficiency. I lost track of the video it was on and I stopped receiving comment updates long ago because I never delete my damn messages (LL needs a select all button). I was hoping we could continue the debate so I subscribed here and I hop More..
