    Everybody in the world thinks Nietzsche holds their politics.
    Yea, and I don't get why. He is so overrated.

    But anyways, if I were rich this is how you could get me to give up my money.

    1. Prove that the theory of capitalist exploitation is correct (not going to argue over that now).

    2. Make a really good golf course and give me free access if communism is ever implemented and it somehow doesn't fail.

    3. Hook me up on a date with the most attractive communist girl (I don't care about personality).

    Are those terms acceptable?

    We've been over this allrady and us Socialists handed you your ass on a platter, don't make us do it again.

    You don't own your body, your body is a part of you.
    I honestly do not feel that way in the slightest. This is OI learning my friend, you're supposed to be civil.

    1. Been done over and over again
    2. If enough people like golf no problem, or if you can convince the community to build one no problem, or you can build one yourself as long as its ok with the community.
    3. Work that out yourself, and good luck, since money is'nt an issue, I'd suggest you start working and and get some swagger.

    I'm glad I need permission to enjoy anything. How is it hard to see how this "majority consenting" power can be abused so easily?

    Where is the line where the community can and cannot say what it has say over?

    Only if you want other people to provide it for you, if you can do it by yourself fine, if other people protest then its resolved democratically.

    Right now you need money to enjoy anything, whether or not it affects other people. Equal opportunity, I thought we were both for this?

    Why would the community want a say over stuff that does'nt directly affect it? Its common sense, it would probably differ from community to community, but its just based on the communities individual needs and outcome. Its democracy man, look it up.
