Why do you have Ayn Rand there? even though she came to the same conclusion as libertarians she wasn't one, in fact I'm pretty sure she hated them xP

I'm a 17 year old white male Libertarian. Oops I just proved your point.

So in your reality complex DNA just randomly popped out of heavily irradiated warm mud and produced thousands of intricately functioning, interdependent biological and chemical systems - all from a massive explosion.I see.

@Rhunidian "White Collar" is just a term like "assault" and "larceny" is a term.Crimes committed by people in companies.

@Rhunidian A. Cool, proof accepted. Drug laws aren't wrong, excessive sentencing is. Agreed.B. I'm confused. CEOs who attended private schools commit white collar crime more because of it. But crime is higher amongst those who did NOT attend private schools because they're disadvantaged.I don't get it. Blame everything in the world, the schooling, lack of schooling, too much education, too little education, *everything* except the morality of the person.Where's the mental block here?!!

I am yet to find a non-white male libertarian... I wonder why.

@Rhunidian A. I think you're confused by what crime is. A crime is an infraction of law, regardless of whether you think the law is valid or not. You don't have drug laws in Canada? Drug legalization is another subject.Also, please also show me evidence that prison sentences for equivalent crimes is more severe in the US.B. As a whole European nations are about equal to you guys in spending, on average. (Norway spends more, UK spends less.) Yes, Africa spends less.

@Rhunidian C. Silly billy, yes, white collar crime is committed in corporations! That's what "white collar crime" is!!!And traffic accidents happen on roads.I don't know of any stat that shows more CEOs come from private schools.I think you're just making stuff up.Even if that is the case it would prove the point that throwing money at schools does not necessarily produce moral people.

They're so confident that charters and vouchers will work simply based on ideology. Problem is the empirical evidence does not bear this out. Charter schools and voucher systems only do as well as public schools, not better. Look at the empirical evidence for what has been tried and see what definitely raises achievement and what doesn't. Don't just assume their claims to be true; test it against the empirical evidence. Eric Hanushek, a conservative education economist, realizes this fact. |
