so either you flatten the hierarchy

or you have hierarchy funding the safetly nets

You can;t force Goverment to pay for everything. And you can;t have Goverment force to pay you everything.

I got called a 'radical individualist' by a family member recently for saying that splitting everyone up by race to determine privilege is a poor way to do things because it's going to create division and does a poor job at accurately predicting an idividual's experiences

conservatives are the new liberals (of the past) for the most part. so you can see how there are right-wing liberals as an accurate description of some of them too

don't you know

the parties switched

so it was really the democrats that freed the slaves

😃

I need to switch bodies then. haha

'the coastal strategy'

how many republican politicians were assassinated by the kkk again?

this is a "stellar" read

who wrote amendment 13... republican 😛

BUT THEY SWITCHED

around the time of who the hell knows when

classical liberalism... generally starting with Adam Smith and so on of the original classial liberals

or perhaps in Britain even before that?

they didnt really "switch" bcuz the racist south just become less and less racist to the point now that deep south conservatives will now predictably favor a black conservative over a white liberal

I believe the first act to stop slavery was around 1773 or something in the UK

and then a final act in 1808 to spend a fortune on the navy to stop it worldwide

not to mention Dinesh D'Souza goes into detail about how the switch from majority blacks to the democratic party far outdated the so called "switch" from taking place

God, I hate how people on both sides conflate Social Democracy and Democratic Socialism, with people are pro-socialism say "oh, you want health care? That means you want Socialism!" and people who are against welfare saying "We can't institute government assistance programs because that's Socialism and Socialism is evil".

really gets my goat

Dinesh D'Souza and Cenk debated about that once at Politicon

I am pro-Health. Less regulations and taxes regarding health.

Health is a human right. But not a Constitutional right.

so the Dems were behind enacting the Jim Crow laws, etc

Both Abortion and Health care decisions should be done at the state level.

Life, is an unalienable right according to the Declaration of Independence, and health has overlap with that.

and they were against repealing the Jim Crow laws too .... that was NOT TOO long ago.....

Does Life mean the protection of your Health or your protection of Living?

health doesn't have to overlap with that

at least not in the way you're arguing

because does your right to health require someone else to intervene against their will?

i.e. a health professional?

do you have a "right" to their services?
