No, because it's private property. As defined by your government. Without that, what makes it private? Your say-so?
Roads arent private property, but according to you, my private property is only private because government says so..
Thats pretty weird because the deed to this property, has a survey which goes back over 100 years, and according to you, this cant be true because 100 years ago, our government wasnt anywhere near its current size.
Serious question. They claim to be the voice for the poor and oppressed, yet many of the biggest voices are swimming in money. Why? They cant spend all of that money. Why let it sit when you can cut a check an extra check to the government or give it to the poor?
Or is the point really that its other peoples money you want to demonize and be used?
IMO, its not about their bs "cause" at all. Its about money and power. They dont give a damn about the causes they preach of, they care about themselves. If they really, really believed a lot of the crap they say, they would feel guilty about having so much money and would give most of their wealth away and live more middle class like. But they wont, they're hypocritical deceivers.
Because they are LIBERALS. They only spend other people's money.
You're absolutely correct, but rich conservatives take a completely different stance when approaching the government for help/money and the public for support. They say "We're the power brokers and the economy revolves around us."
I'm just saying, if you want to demand that liberals give their money away to help the poor as their rhetoric suggests, you should also be demanding that rich conservatives fulfill their own claims regarding their role in the economy.
I don't think anyone in this thread has "demanded" that rich Liberals donate more money to the poor, but rather simply pointing out the hypocrisy that they do not.
That's the thing about charity, it is not right to demand it of anyone.

Yep. Maybe you think that piece of paper that says it's yours means something. Not sure what you think obliges me to do so.
Other than the social construct in which we both live, that is.

No, that's according to you. You can tell because you said it.

Well I suppose they're regular people who want to make things good but also bask in the fruits of their labors. Typical Americans, you could call them.
What are these 'natural' rights and where are they codified.
natural rights, political fact that maintains that an individual enters into society with certain basic rights and that no government can deny.
