• Couuurage, comrades. Labour reverts, abandoning support for free market.
• Laughable council jobs. ‘Bouncy castle attendant’?
• The torturers under Bush. You didn’t really expect them to be prosecuted, now did you?
• The torture memos, Obama and the banality of evil.
• The Waco butcherers are back.
• If you want war, work for justice. Those whose bumper stickers read “If you want peace, work for justice” simply take it for granted that there is no question what is just; if you want to find out, just ask them.
• Hard times show lack of community. But could bring it back.
• ‘Capitalism is dead.’ Some people thought this in the 1930s and moved to the USSR. How’d that work out?
• A left-libertarian on Christians in a secular society. Not secularist. Good points but worth contrasting to the political beliefs of Popes before the 1960s end of the world. I think the rumours of religion’s imminent death in America are greatly exaggerated.
• We should be suspicious when told that the highest priorities are the ones that involve deploying First World militaries against the world’s poorest regions.
• Tea-party demonstrators and Vietnam demonstrators. When you think about you realise the hippies did little if any good (you had a surplus of kids, and affluent ones at that, looking for a good time and expecting the free ride they’d always known... what good did trashing uni libraries do?); all the dog work for good or ill in society (from civil-rights work to getting mired in Vietnam) was done by the ’60s I like, the early part or the logical continuation of the ’50s, men with buzzcuts and jobs.
• That said, who would be hurt by ending the drugs war? BTW Seth MacFarlane was at the top of his game last night on ‘Family Guy’ regarding this stuff.
• It just ain’t none of my business. what you do with your body and your property as long as the no-harm principle is followed. The government pretends it’s its business... to make money.
• Return to sound money.
• World cop and American daddy. Again why doesn’t the Maersk Line hire a little private navy, seagoing security guards?
• Land of the ’fraid, home of the barricaded. The United States spends two times more on its military than all the other countries of the world, combined. Yes, that’s right. All 200 or so of them. Combined.
