The problem is in other arenas of life we apply reason, evidence (or at least some of us do) and scientic method to separate good ideas from bad...with religion doing that has been made taboo because unsupportable nonsense ideas won't withstand any reasonably honest scrutiny.

I agree with Stossel's article. Citizen video is so far the only effective deterrant to police abuse of power. Oscar Grant for example...hopefully police executions will remain a rare occurance.

I thought our current tax system is already based on 'voluntary compliance, just like traffic lights'... not the common sense version of course, but the government's definition, where you get thrown in jail for not voluntarily complying. "The evil of the world is made possible by nothing but the sanction you give it. " -John Galt from Atlas Shrugged, 1957

Do you support our current system of violent statism? Do you support the state's monopoly on violence, using violence and the threat thereof to collect funding for the state, and in responding to social problems... citizens' money being forcibly taken and wasted on more violence and debts in the name of the American people. "The evil of the world is made possible by nothing but the sanction you give it. " -John Galt from Atlas Shrugged, 1957

Of course we'll be there too, and on a larger scale than Greece. The question isn't if, but how soon. "The evil of the world is made possible by nothing but the sanction you give it. " -John Galt from Atlas Shrugged, 1957

You forgot a few important others: -Roving gangs of 'Mad Max' style pirates -Post-apocalyptic conditions of anarchy -Kids stealing each others candy on the playgrounds My stance is a society's prosperity is always inversely proportional to the size and oppressiveness of its government. The irony is prosperity allows the cancer to grow faster, and that's how the country who experimented in small, limited government ended up screwed over by the largest most coercive government on Earth. From smallest to largest and soon broke in record time. "The evil of the world is made possible by nothing but the sanction you give it. " -John Galt from Atlas Shrugged, 1957

A rough estimation of how much prosperity we lose each year at the hand of the government, and some insight into how our debt became so staggeringly huge. http://www.econlib.org/library/Columns/y2010/Murphygovernmentcosts.html "Critics of government intervention have pointed out the waste of resources associated with various programs and regulations. Yet, even most fans of the free market would be surprised to see how much richer the average American would be if the government restricted its activities to protecting citizens from domestic criminals and foreign armies."

I doubt the article intends that because 3 paragraphs up from the last it says "The British Crown, or the British monarchy is the owner of the Federal Reserve. This is their real secret." "The evil of the world is made possible by nothing but the sanction you give it. " -John Galt from Atlas Shrugged, 1957

Thought so. . . Same old conspiracy theory tin-hatter bullshit. Yep, typical ostrich head-in-the-sand reaction even when attempts to remove audit restrictions are defeated and Greenspan gets knighted for destroying our economy... yup all is in perfect order here.. different strokes for different folks, to each their own and all that. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/2177814.stm "The evil of the world is made possible by nothing but the sanction you give it.

So, what's the name of the guy that owns the Federal Reserve? from here: http://news.goldseek.com/GoldSeek/1095269452.php "OWNERSHIP OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE Most Americans, if they know anything at all about the Federal Reserve, believe it is an agency of the United States Government. This article charts the true nature of the "National Bank." Chart 1 Source: ** Federal Reserve Directors: A Study of Corporate and Banking Influence ** - - Published 1976 Chart 1 reveals the linear connection between the Rothschilds and the Bank of England, and the London banking houses which ultimately control the Federal Reserve Banks through their stockholdings of bank stock and their subsidiary firms in New York." It would seem to be the British. "The Federal Reserve will always debase the currency to take its cut, and guarantee that the government has a tax base available to feed its bureaucratic family. The government is a total slave of the Federal Reserve." "While all this destruction is occurring, money diverted by the mechanism of currency debasement is constantly being transferred to the British Crown in the City of London.

How an Economy Grows and Why it Crashes http://www.amazon.com/How-Economy-Grows-Why-Crashes/dp/047052670X by Peter Schiff How an Economy Grows and Why it Crashes uses illustration, humor, and accessible storytelling to explain complex topics of economic growth and monetary systems. In it, economic expert and bestselling author of Crash Proof, Peter Schiff teams up with his brother Andrew to apply their signature "take no prisoners" logic to expose the glaring fallacies that have become so ingrained in our country’s economic conversation. Inspired by How an Economy Grows and Why It Doesn’t—a previously published book by the Schiffs’ father Irwin, a widely published economist and activist—How an Economy Grows and Why It Crashes incorporates the spirit of the original while tackling the latest economic issues.With wit and humor, the Schiffs explain the roots of economic growth, the uses of capital, the destructive nature of consumer credit, the source of inflation, the importance of trade, savings, and risk, and many other topical principles of economics. The tales told here may appear simple of the surface, but they will leave you with a powerful understanding of How an Economy Grows and Why it Crashes. Very powerful in terms of dispelling long-held misbeliefs about economics, I highly recommend it. "The evil of the world is made possible by nothing but the sanction you give it.

Here's a link to that very informative, insightful film: America: Freedom to Fascism http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1656880303867390173&ei=EA2iSP36LYH2qgKjy6XeAQ&q=america+freedom+to+fascism&hl=en# My answer to the original question is fascism got its foot in the door when the private banking group of the Federal Reserve ascended to power.

Well you could go on and on likewise about many things: a citizenry that: ...'would allow the Federal Reserve takeover of the monetary system with no oversight whatsoever' ...'that would allow the proliferation of statist central planning' ...'that feels more violence is always the answer' "The evil of the world is made possible by nothing but the sanction you give it.

i disagree. you as an individual cant borrow and spend your way to wealth and prosperity and neither can the country as a whole. my 2 cents "The evil of the world is made possible by nothing but the sanction you give it. " -John Galt from Atlas Shrugged, 1957

Yup, I'll believe the "recovery" when I see it...not holding breathe though. The propaganda must stay positive instead of realistic because if any of the large creditors to the U.S. catch wind and dump us (to save themselves) it would likely start a panic/avalanche run on the dollar.

what if you're anti-statist, anti-fascist? I got Social Liberal 70% permissive and Economic Moderate 56% permissive. "The evil of the world is made possible by nothing but the sanction you give it. " -John Galt from Atlas Shrugged, 1957

+1, exactly. "The evil of the world is made possible by nothing but the sanction you give it. " -John Galt from Atlas Shrugged, 1957

I avoid doing alot of walking in the suit. When it's not feasible to avoid walking, I use one hand to hold up on the top middle of the legwing (middle of bottom skin at inlet), which lifts the trailing edge off the ground.

Amazing talent to hit something beyond the effective range of the weapon! And with a .338 that far out. I would've expected new records to come from more recent technology like Cheytac .408 M200 .

I don't know about anyone else, but the only time I'm not closely monitoring the cone-shaped area encompassing my glidepath and anything near it is when I'm holding position in a slot. It takes 2 to have a collision, so a collision requires 1 or both parties to not be looking where they are going. Look at any flying animal that forms large synchronized groups and you'll see they have reaction times much quicker (4x, 6x or 8x human). Being aware of this disadvantage we have coupled with the outcomes of meatmissile collision should motivate the WS flyer to keep a high level of alertness/awareness for shorter reaction time.
