2) We could tell anyone we want about it: what we couldn’t do is lobby the government.

3) Exactly.

4) I don’t have anything against mutual funds but I also don’t give a crap if they go away. The point is it would limit companies in size and make shareholders responsible for the treatments of workers—since they ARE the workers.

5) That’s just being nonsensical. I am talking about company policies, for example the chemical company that blew up half of India back in the 90’s (Union Carbide) because it violated safety regulations and no one was held responsible because, hey, it’s a corporation and NO ONE is responsible. In the scenario you suggest the person would clearly be held accountable for their own actions. Now, if the company was found to have shoddy security that allowed it to happen, that’s another story.

Will get the the otrhers a bit later.

2. So if you and I form a literature club we cannot talk about it to others?

3. I like this. It is just that the definition of such a lawsuit needs to be very carefully defined.

4. Again would cause a huge disruption in our society. And it would outlaw mutual funds, you’ve got a problem with those?

5. You own an aspirin company and some idiot employee comes in work after hours and poisons a bottle. Some customer buys the bottle and dies. So YOU get prison for life???

6. You see an accident and a reporter interviews about it. You lie for some reason so the news agency is liable? How do you define “irrelevant to the public welfare?”

7. You decide to buy a second house and rent it out, given the renter the joy of living in a house that he cannot qualify to take a loan out on or knows he will be moving in a year or two. Oops, it cannot be done. What sense does that make?

8. Actually, you need to hire the lawyers that can pull off stunts like that.

9. You know not what you ask for. Who pays them? The problem is they would still be people, subject to whims and prejudice. No better than 12 random people.

10. Great if you needed an aspirin, bad if you needed a bypass. Medical care is an incredibly complex problem that needs to be solved a piece at a time.

11. Great, you are framed for murder and you get some uninspired nose picker that doesn’t care about your case for he gets paid the same either way.

12. Not a good idea. Just on one level, how about students in an expensive area? Millions would be needed just to buy a few acres to build a school while in inner cities, just thousands would be needed so the inner city students would have lots of cash for classes and teachers while the expensive area students would all be sitting in a circle sharing a book in a field.

Just a hint, Communism doesn’t work.

Actually we have proof that gravity at great distances (as in distances greater than Pluto to the Sun) doesn’t weaken as quick as it should. It is called the Pioneer Anomaly:

I went through your site for a couple minutes, and being a Christian, I found some of your stuff a bit insulting. Just a couple of points: One, not all Christians are stupid and cannot justify their beliefs by logic and science. Two, more people have been killed in the name of Godless Communism than all the wars of history, including any religious wars and the Spanish Inquisition. The only things that have killed more people than Godless Communism are old age, disese, and accidents.

If you would like to discuss your views on Christianity and the (if any) logic and reasoning behind it with an open mind then I would like to further our communications.

I missed you… And what considered and impeccable reason you bring to the table yet again. I must confess there is no arguing with logic like yours…

Unless Phosphorus, Tungsten and Dime Bombs are no longer WMD and their usage is a CRIME against HUMANITY?

Or targeting Palestinian children or torturing and raping them in Jails is considered a humane and kind act?

As I stated on my blog: Judaism is an evil religion!

That’s comedy gold, right there. Or would be, if it didn’t incline me to weeping.

Also, it’s nothing Rush Limbaugh (mentioned prominently in your name ‘rushisright’) has not said, albeit directed at people who AREN’T bloviating hypocritical lying child-fuckers.

Sorta like ‘Dan Dare’ with antisocialist tendencies in place of Anglophilia.

‘Well, he couldn’t have been a Scotsman’

‘Says here he was a former Scottish MP, and head of the Dougal Clan’

‘Oh, obviously he wasn’t a TRUE Scostman’

This is tantamount to moving the goal line in a game of football. Only you don’t get to tackle anyone.
