Kinda like witch doctors. They hate modern medicine and Medical doctors but they have nothing that is tested and proven.


this is 2010. We use checks and electronic transfer of funds.
Such as.... ?

How about going back to the question that is still unanswered, what school of economics do you hail as our best option?

As far as being represented by ignorance, I find such a statement itself to be quite ignorant. I'd compare the IQ's of registered Libertarians any day to run-of-the-mill social issue only voters.

They hate Medical Doctors? Ron Paul, the face of Libertarians the last decade, is a Medical Doctor... doofus.

We are staying with Libertarian economics on this thread.
Where do you see the Libertrarian IQ's posted? Is that something you make up like the economics?

Far be it for me to avoid staying on topic... that's your territory after all

It's called rhetoric. I'm not literally going to scientifically poll IQ's of registered voters (though I'm sure there's a way to do this, and I'm sure it's already been done).

I made up economics?

You just talk all over yourself. Spittle running onto your chin.

Then I will look forward to you showing us the Big IQ and 'splaining the economic platfor of the party favored by higher IQ folks. If you don't that tells me the IQ claim is a bluff.

Again, since you didn't get it the first time, it's a rhetoric device used in modern language to convey an opinion that basically says "Libertarians are pretty smart" (of course in response to your accusations that they are all ignorant -- but I won't ask you for surveys or research on that one ).

So the "IQ claim" is neither a bluff nor a literal factual statement. Don't let language get in your way, Coadie.

So you admit the IQ is an ego claim? It is not actually measured?

The libertiarians are on a head trip of superiority just like the other brand of liberals.

Ron Paul is a babbling idiot in regards to economics. The ignorant people that are impressed with him only see that Ron Paul criticizes negative economic statistics that they are need criticisim. But he is retarded in economics. The junk he tracks is 100 years old. Never tested and never adopted.

Ron Pauls hero is Ayn Rand. Ayn is just another atheist philosphy major.She wrote for Hollywood.

!

Ayn is worthless for 3 reasons. She is a writer of fiction. Her math methodologies are non existent. She has no science. Just personal conviction.

If you have not overdosed on koolaid, you can watch her rants and see she contradicts herself. If you are on koolaid, you won't notice it.



Her hero was Frederich Neitzche. Another heathen zealot.

No, that's not what I admit. Why do you just about ALWAYS put words in people's mouth?

How are Libertarians liberals? Are you confused? Slap yourself a few times and see if that works... maybe it will get you unstuck.

People that are impressed with Ron Paul are ignorant? Really? That's all you have? He is retarded in economics? Nothing of substance to anything you are saying.

Ayn Rand's objectivism is a false philosophy, but to dismiss her like that (without ever reading her works) is foolishness. There's a reason she's on most Top 25 reading lists. She's also the philosophical substance behind even those more liberal than herself: people like Rush Limbaugh and Mike Savage. See, she has a diverse fan base.

Ayn is worthless? Have you read any of her books? You speak like an ignorant ass. (I know you haven't read her works because you previously responded you didn't know who she was). One of the most influential voices against the economic idea of Socialism.

Please point out her contradictions... or SOME substance. I have no idea what you are taking issue with and what your issue is, or what your solution is. You just babble, babble, babble....

I want to read Atlas Shrugged and Fountainhead. I was given a copy of Anthem. I read it... passed it on with the condition that the person that reads it passes it on to someone else...
