You didn't answer my earlier question @AiarUther

2018-07-08 04:12:28 UTC  

What is the government?

2018-07-08 04:12:51 UTC  

so you're asking for a definition?

2018-07-08 04:13:04 UTC  

I'm asking what you think the government is, I suppose

2018-07-08 04:13:18 UTC  

not necessarily a dictionary definition of "government"

2018-07-08 04:13:20 UTC  

what format would you like the answer

2018-07-08 04:13:23 UTC  

?

2018-07-08 04:13:32 UTC  

@AiarUther lacking a viable alternative to the government your arguments are mute

2018-07-08 04:13:33 UTC  

however you like

2018-07-08 04:14:00 UTC  

I just want to know how you understand what the government is, if that makes sense

2018-07-08 04:14:11 UTC  

@SOTGOR I'm just going to take that statement as an admission that I'm right and proceed to do a victory dance

2018-07-08 04:14:56 UTC  

Your right to some extent as I have been saying sure but lacking a solution I fail to see what you want

2018-07-08 04:15:57 UTC  

I see taxation as evil

2018-07-08 04:16:11 UTC  

and I see no reason to increase that evil as much as strictly neccesary

2018-07-08 04:16:21 UTC  

Taxation is evil to some extent but it is a necessary evil

2018-07-08 04:16:25 UTC  

why I'm a minarchist

2018-07-08 04:16:40 UTC  

Define minarchist

2018-07-08 04:16:52 UTC  

Is that like a libertarian

2018-07-08 04:16:56 UTC  

sorta

2018-07-08 04:17:05 UTC  

they are saying on general chat that sargon's new account got banned

2018-07-08 04:17:15 UTC  

Of course

2018-07-08 04:17:15 UTC  

A minarchist believes the government should reduced to the smallest degree possible

2018-07-08 04:17:27 UTC  

I agree with that priciple

2018-07-08 04:18:01 UTC  

But taxation is a necessary function of the most basic Gover

2018-07-08 04:18:04 UTC  

and I also think so because the most propserous nations are ones with the lowest government involvement

2018-07-08 04:18:05 UTC  

Government

2018-07-08 04:18:48 UTC  

Ok so we agree for the most part

2018-07-08 04:19:27 UTC  

I'm a libertarian right winger

2018-07-08 04:19:40 UTC  

I really don't care what other people do, as long as they leave me alone

2018-07-08 04:20:01 UTC  

they can even have pinapple on pizza

2018-07-08 04:20:59 UTC  

So we agree on this issue government is a necessary evil

2018-07-08 04:21:43 UTC  

I'm more of an ancap agnostic

2018-07-08 04:21:49 UTC  

I'm not sure if ancap will work

2018-07-08 04:21:55 UTC  

but I'm not convinced it won't either

2018-07-08 04:22:17 UTC  

dude pinapple on pizza is the best

2018-07-08 04:22:26 UTC  

u cant have pizza without it

2018-07-08 04:22:40 UTC  

mushroom guy myself

2018-07-08 04:23:00 UTC  

my best combo is mushroom onion pinapple and jalapenos

2018-07-08 04:23:13 UTC  

I eat pizza with just cheese

2018-07-08 04:23:19 UTC  

lame

2018-07-08 04:23:50 UTC
