Big Business & Big Government vs. the People

Again you do hide. You stated that the Founders, despite your insistence that they were idiots, "made all big govt scams illegal". Given the military industrial complex is a "big government scam", is it illegal?

 

not a scam at all. won 2 world wars,saved civilization on earth and recreated it it our Founders image and now police the world. Opposite of a scam really!

 

hide??? conservatism is 2000 years old. nothing could be less hidden... except to an illiterate.

 

So let's get this right. You support the military industrial complex? Yes or no will suffice!

 

I support the military that won 2 world wars, saved civilization on earth, recreated much of the world in its image, and now polices the world to maintain a civilization that would otherwise vanish in weeks.

 

Don't hide now. I asked a very simple question: do you support the military industrial complex? It's a yes/no opportunity

 

I don't think that Austrian economists would advocate coercion. Can you cite any that do?

 

Socialist are infamous for juxtaposing valid critisms and falsely applying them against other schools of evonomic thought.

 

super dumb question since nobody supports it. It's like saying do you support greed or inefficiency or selfishness. Do you understand? Hard to imagine you thought that was a good question.

 

This amused me. The Military Industrial Complex is analysis from liberal political economy. In silly rant, it would be 'libcommie' analysis

 

like we would care what amuses an old world libcommie????

 

MIC was made popular by Eisenhower at close of his term to warn us about wasteful military spending. Nobody supports MIC but intelligent folks support adequate military on hand to defeat 2 major enemies at once. We don't want to end up like Britian being bombed to smithereens because we were too stupid to anticipate that war might come.

 

That MIC is from liberal political economy and that you call that political economy 'libcommie' is the amusement value.

If it wasn't for Britain I have no doubt that America would have tried to make peace with the Nazis. Crikey, you had Nazi training camps in the 30s! And that's the important point: the MIC generates similar regime uncertainty. The profiteering motive corrupts policy and engineers inconsistencies which threaten stability.

 

Nobody knows where it is from. Sorry! but we know what Eisenhower meant when he used it. Do you understand.

 

yes we forgave the Brits for abject liberal stupidity. It seems they forgot that wars come and so forgot to prepare. We needed to rescue them from themselves and did our duty.

 

sure!! better to be like Britain and let the Nazis bomb us to smitherines! That way at least when the bombs come it will be to kill plenty of fat people on welfare!!

 

Tut tut, you slip here and demonstrate the ugly consequences of the authoritarian personality. I appreciate your dilemma mind you. That you're forced to accept liberal political economy must upset you so...

 

more aimless gibberish because stupid stupid stupid Britain had no defense and got bombed to smithereens like helpless monkeys. One would think that this time around you’d be armed to the teeth but not the Brits they’re too smart for that.

 

That you'd refer to psychological experimentation of right-wing politics as 'aimless gibberish' does neatly advertise your weak position...

Given you accept MIC, a liberal political economic approach, when does liberalism become libcommie?

 

if so why so afraid to explain? What does your fear teach you?

 

it was line in Eisenhower speech to warn us about excessive military thinking and spending, not a liberal political economic approach. And????
