This is unpopular?

I believe the War on Drugs should be abolished. The entire medical industry should be completely reformed. Until the single purpose of medical treatment is simply "to help medically in someway". Crazy right?

To hardcore progressives, yes.

It's a pretty popular opinion. The subject itself is extremely popular. I can't turn on the TV or browse the web without reading some type of argument regarding some religion, usually Islam and Christianity.

Mandatory sterilization for all after their second child.
No more lawn products with chemicals.
No more coal,no oil pipe lines,it's all switched to green energy.
No more urban sprawl into farmland and wild areas.
No factory farms.
Animal abusers get abused in prison.
Prison time for big polluters.
Monsanto and other chemical merchants are shut down.
Rapists and child molestors get microchipped for tracking,ideally they just get floated out to Molestor Island and food will be dropped to them by air.
More protection for endangerd species,clean air and water.
Mental health care gets the attention it needs.
Free education and health care for all.

While Catholicism itself is a relatively progressive religion, most Catholics I meet are raging a••holes. I mean the entire lineup of bad human traits, mostly vindictiveness though occurs in nearly every Catholic I meet. Are they taught to take joy in other people's misfortunes or tragedies? Is it a sign of strength to attack others? Are you still a good person if you repent, knowing you'll do the same thing next week?

The difference between people an ants is that people are sentient and people do not cooperate instinctively. So the saying "people are not ants", commonly extolled by libertarians and classical liberals is misleading and mostly false.

I despise libertarians, classical liberals, and anarchists.

Not every single feminist expresses the same feminist views.

Why would someone want to keep food they can't eat and would spoil?

We have to realize that this person doesn't have a market to sell to, because everyone else is participating in gift exchange. This person also wouldn't feel very good about his/her actions due to sociological pressures, and it would be in his or her best interest to give to the community (no authorities as there would be no state in 'pure' communism).

I think you have this backwards. Sociology is what would keep a communist society together.


Now everyone! Come and attack me... Call me a devil!

Funny, I'm pretty sure libertarians hate sockpuppets.

Having me as the undisputed ruler of the world. Most people don't seem to approve of this idea.

There is no Good Government. There is only Bad Government and Worse Government.

Funny, cuz I'm pertty sure some sockpuppets are libertarians.

Hardly! The majority of Americans think the war on drugs should be abolished.

Agreed.
