No Rothbard or Mises actually quoted? That is insulting...

Edit: Hahah.... on second thoughts; there is no way you'd be able to confuse them with a Marxist... ;)
That's why they weren't used. :D

"You can tell the difference between revolutionary communists and free market libertarians. Now, try to figure out the difference between Democrats and Republicans. It won't be as easy. "

:rolleyes: There is no difference. And you don't exactly need to read much to figure it out. :)

A perfect example of the Borderline Mind. The apish thinking of black and white dichotomies, the absurd neglect of any reasonable comparative ideologies.

This is what I fight everyday of my life. The idea that the world is black and white. That there is pure good and pure evil.

I'm sorry, but right here and right now, if you have not responded with the clear denouncement of this sort of black and white thinking, you are a worthless thinker.

What a sad, sad, disgrace.

What would non absurd, reasonable comparative ideologies that are not black and white look like?

The test clearly showed there was some grey areas... They are just several sentences though. Talk about cherry picking... :) Thoughtfully picked for the exact purpose to show case what the op wanted.

Stupid crap.

Next thing I'll hear is that Jefferson was an Austrian... lmfao.

Well..I think I am leaning towards Hamilton's American Economics these days. The lassiz faire economic system only works within a moral society which we definately don't have. tones

not for nothing, but Karl Marx's system is a hell of a lot better than the way this country is going. Don't get me wrong, his system sucks, but the new American Economy where a bureaucratic government and rich wall street thieves run the show is worse than anything Marx dreamed up.

Umm... fuck no.

What you are seeing collectivism in action mate. National Socialism. I.e Fascism, i.e Nazism, i.e Corporatism.

Marxism - international socialism.

You're trying to differentiate between two forms of collectivism, fail.
