Knock yourself out. . .just don't take MY hard-earned money to pay for it.

I earned MY money, I earned my standard of living. I earned everything I have. . .and being a middle-class white male, it wasn't easy.

For every Canadian (”America's Hat”) example of the greatness and goodness of socialism, history is chocked full of dismal (and lethal) failures.

And I'll bet the small community in the Canadian study was more of a ethnically homogenized "community" sharing common cultural standards than an urban jungle where feral thugs prowl and prey. Try that minimum income thing in, say, Wash DC or Detroit and see where it gets you.

You do realize don't you that your response is why government assistance is need since your too damn stingy to help out people who need it.

Cool story bro. Us white guys have had it real rough.

You're so deluded that you're really going to call a program advocated by libertarian hero Hayek as socialist?

Hahaha unbelievable . . . wait, it's actually not.

You don't even have to go that nuts.

Everyone seems to forget American history. When the Pilgrims first landed on the Massachusetts coastline, their first societal experiment was a communal one. No private property. Block houses where everyone lives. Crops were planted, tended, and doled out communally. Basically, it was a collectivist's wet dream, and you cannot get a more homogenized community, perhaps, than the first sect of dissenters who first left England for Holland and then Holland for the New World so they could practice their particular form of religion.

The result? Epic failure. Because of collectivism, in the harsh environment of the New World, they almost starved to death.
