I'm going to have to completely disagree with you there. It's a fucked and doomed-to-fail system if everyone only ever thinks of themselves
it's selfish to sit there and take their tax money
for the government maybe
and when I got here, you were telling people that beingforced to be someone's personal bank account was a selfless act
which it's not
The world is already feeling that effect. People just waltz on by homeless people all the time. Little to no empathy.
but its not rational, because eventaully the money will dry up
@Enigmus most walk by because they can't help, because they can barely afford to feed themselves despite working

"Most"
look, if you wanted to sum up what I want politically: 1. complete deregulation of markets 2. disolution of the welfare state 3. Massive reduction in taxes and the size of the state in general
The human race will devolve quite a lot if everyone only ever thought of themselves. We'd devolve into a savage and awful race if literally everyone took to their own devices, and were so short-sighted as to think that only their goals and interests mattered, because they're them, not other people.
Just look at the human race today
Loooots of selfishness
Oh lookey, warlords in Africa
Oh hey, Adolf, how do you do?
do you really think to think short term is to be selfish?
Mighty fine day out, isn't it, Stalin?
I'm saying that if you only ever think of yourself, you're selfish
By literal definition
if you were to do what you wanted, no one would be able to afford anything, not ot mention there would be no rule in what is a market and what isn't
slavery was a free and open market without regulation
look how that turned out
also, I'd like to point out that Hitler and Stalin were the two biggest advocates of sacrifice in the 20th century.
yes, and Hitler and Stalin were nutters
yes but slavery undermines peoples rights to life, and I already stated earlier that the most important thing is individual rights.
🎵 One of these things is not like the other!~ 🎵
because they coudln't see past the noses on their faces when it came to that
individual rights were a thing back then too, it still happened
because there were no laws or regulations on the markets and what could and could not be a good or service
but don't you see how it was people's willingness to be altruistic and give themselves up to the state that enabled them?
People can live selfishly if they want to. But when they go about, trying to tell me to be selfish, I have a problem.
yeah, slaves gave themselves up willingly to be slaves!
OMG LMFAO!!!!! WOW
I was talking about hitler
but ok
look, going to be real honest
there was fear mongering and coercion, and down right threats
I can tell you that a lot of the men on the battlefield and even in the SS did NOT want to be there
they were forced to
