Thank you thank, I'll be here all night.

Try the fish!

All Leftist ideologies use the "common good" excuse not just to justify the personal perfidy of Leftist politicians, but the tyrannical nature of all Leftist policies themselves.  All Leftist policy prescriptions subsume the liberty of the individual to this fairy tale notion of the "common good."

All Leftists just suck, Garraty.

The one size fits all prescription is what I strenuously object to.

Sam Adams was speaking to Garraty's:


"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom -- go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!"

"The said constitution shall never be construed to authorize congress to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms."

Jefferson had a say about nanny gubmins too:

"I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them."

"To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical."
"No freeman shall ever be debarred the use of arms."
Thomas Jefferson, while writing the 1st draft of the Virginia State Constitution.

George Mason:
"Americans need never fear their government because of the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation."

^^exhibit (A)

Exhibit A, but you fail fail to defend any aspect of any Leftist Policy that DOES NOT subsume the liberty of the individual to the Leftist/Collectivist fairy tale notion of the "common good."

When presenting an Exhibit, one must one must explain why that exhibit supports one's argument.  You do not make any such explanation in support of your thesis.

You fail Debate 101.
