    Credit card companies charge people who pay for people who don’t. Government taxes producers to pay people who don’t. Soldiers fight and die for people who don’t. Hospitals profit from the wealthy to provide care to for those they lose money serving.

    It has everything to do with socialism – and the corruption that results from state management of resources, particularly oil. You want redistribution? Fine. You want socialism (state management) sorry. You’re the enemy of human life.

    Hope you Trump supporters take note: these difficulties in Venezuela has nothing to do with socialism. It is caused by a corrupt leader who refuses to accept the results of an election. Could happen here.

    Yes, I support liberal anti-natalism. I don’t really have to. They do it without any encouragement. The problem is that they vote for redistribution that imposes that will on others.

    Thus the myth must end: free trade is just an excuse to engage in the very crimes that the left claims of capitalists: socialization&privatization. Either one is engaged in reciprocity or one is engaged only in the voluntary, or one is engaged in the involuntary AND irreciprocal.

    My friend @tylercowen new book is out today. It is an all-in defense of American capitalism. Even if you disagree with him, you should read it because a) intellectual bubbles suck and b) to see an extraordinary mind at work. https://t.co/7IgvkfbLX6

    Sorry guys but while my program will work and work famously,m and set the standard for all future economies to follow, UBI will create a permanent underclass and a permanent working class that will grow increasingly angry, with supporting them because they will not be ‘kin’.
