I agree that there are clueless people who don't own any property who are clueless enough to vote away their own property rights and support the idea of a progressive government seizing other peoples property as long as they believe that they'll receive a healthy slice of the proceeds. The progressives don't seem to grasp the truth in regards to how bad they would end being decimated by the American society. How did the Democratic party allow itself to get so far out of wack with the values of American society? How large of a social context does America represent to you? I'd say 65,000,000 for sure and 68,000,000 million who are uncertain about their loyalties at the moment.(01-30-2017, 07:24 PM)Mikebert Wrote:(01-29-2017, 02:12 AM)Classic-Xer Wrote: You're home is private property.

These rights are limited and always have been. For example the police can enter your home with a warrant. It is a crime to conducting business with certain people, e.g. selling liquor to a minor or knowingly sell weapons to terrorists.
Libertarians have a poor grasp of the truth that property rights are creations of society and only exist in a social context.
