    What role, if any, do you think the UN should serve?

    As you can guess, as a right leaning libertarian with an emphasis on fiscal conservatism, I'm very critical of the UN. #1, it is too bureaucratic to actually do anything with too many chiefs and not enough indians. #2, I wouldn't want it to have any more power as many of the policies and...

That plus an option for...

    Social Security

    Ok, using the "I can't believe P, therefore not-P" equation on what I said we'd have: I can't imagine why people would support social security, therefore people do not support social security. - your claim that I used a logical fallacy is wrong as the application above does not make sense.

    One's Fair Share and the Sweat of Your Labors

    Philosophical questions and progressive taxes: What is the "fair share" expected from each individual? Who decides? How should the state enforce it? Are people that pay no taxes but receive society's benefits paying their "fair share"? Is society doing enough for them? What do you owe your...

    Thread Where Dohdough And I Hash It Out
