Re: Which Is More Important? The Right to Discriminate, or Freedom from Discriminati
I ask this of both Haymarket and Federalist: Has Federalist actually admitted that he uses some sort of government (any level) owned property that has been taked under the use of eminent domain? Additionally does he use this facility(s) freely, because he wants to or is it because the specific facility is something that he needs to do under necessary circumstances and thus does not really have a choice. e.g. an MVA office.
the answer from Federalist
Federalist doesn't freely use the results of eminent domain in his daily life. Haymarket, as usual, makes many assumptions, which is why he is mistaken.
Are we to believe that Federalist is being held in a imprisoned condition of involuntary servitude and is being forced to drive upon streets, roads and highways built with eminent domain which he uses and benefits from but which he pretends to oppose on principle and is completely and utterly powerless and impotent to do anything else?
Are we to believe that Federalist is being held in a imprisoned condition of involuntary servitude and is being forced to use hospitals and medical care facilities built with eminent domain which he uses and benefits from but which he pretends to oppose on principle and is completely and utterly powerless and impotent to do anything else?
Are we to believe that Federalist is being held in a imprisoned condition of involuntary servitude and is being forced to use airports built with eminent domain which he uses and benefits from but which he pretends to oppose on principle and is completely and utterly powerless and impotent to do anything else?
Are we to believe that Federalist is being held in a imprisoned condition of involuntary servitude and is being forced to use services provided by government employees working in government buildings and facilities built with eminent domain which he uses and benefits from but which he pretends to oppose on principle and is completely and utterly powerless and impotent to do anything else?
Are we to believe that Federalist is being held in a imprisoned condition of involuntary servitude and is being forced to interact with people educated and trained to perform job functions in schools built with eminent domain which he benefits from but which he pretends to oppose on principle and is completely and utterly powerless and impotent to do anything else?
I could go on and on with more examples as to how this individual makes free decisions in his daily life to benefit from eminent domain but yet still gets upon his high horse and pretends to oppose it. Sorry but that simply rings hollow when the words are compared to the actions.
Of course - this brings up the basic contradiction of the right libertarian and exposes the fraud and hypocrisy they live by.
They justify their hypocrisy by wallowing in the justifying delusion that they have no choice and this life has been imposed upon them by the same bad evil government that they have decided is the Great Satan in all things and it is that evil power which mandates them, which forces them, which compels them to say one thing while living another. Just like the abusive husband who looks down upon his battered wife and sobs in regret that
"you made be do it" - they attempt to resolve themselves of their own actions and decisions. Just like the rapist who blames the victim for wearing too sexy clothes or coming on to them or teasing them or leading them on and again with
"you made me do it". Just like the speeder ticketed by police who blames their actions upon everyone else on the road who forced them to drive faster than they wanted to ...
"I was just trying to keep up with everyone else - they made me do it".
Its all a bunch of crap. Its all an attempt by weak people to justify their own actions and their own hypocrisy and their own belief systems which run contrary to their actions.
So somebody else made them do it and they did not do so "freely" or "willingly" or "they did not want to do it".
Gimme a break. If somebody really truly actually and honestly has such strong objection to the everyday actions that one needs to engage to in our American society and sees fit to condemn them and rant and rally against them - its time to crap or get off the pot.
But this is merely one of the basic fatal flaws in the right libertarian - they try to talk the talk but are impotent to walk the walk. And in our society, actions speak much much louder than words.
