Yes indeed which is why you'll notice that I use these things '?' to denote I am asking a question, I do this exactly in order to understand. > All these are long answers.

I agree BTW, each and ebvery one of us should look after ourselves, but then those that for whatever reasons can't, well it is a duty of the rest of sociaty to provied aid for them. At the moment, whilst our policitcal system is one of democratic goverment then it is the duty of sociaty via goverment to do this. > >Would you deal with your > > own garbage for example, not walk the streets at night because you > > would be making use of street lighting, hell how can you walk a street > > anyway does the goverment not pay via taxation for the builinding and > > upkeep of it? > > Let's not get carried away here. Have another chip. Well here's the rub then sir is it not. You want a minimalisit of goverment interferance, yet you do make use of all sorts of goverment systems, and when I mention them, I am getting carried away? Nope I don't get that one either. Does this mean that you are willing to pay taxes for street lights but feel that your freedom and liberty is under attack when asked to consider that the taxes you already pay be used to help those less able to help themselve? Sorry man but that idealogy seems unethical and selfish to me. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups ""Minds Eye"" group.
