"... and you believe in states, by your construct you are the one exercing a socialist (ideological) world view."

I believe that civilization requires government.

Governments, however, do not have the authority to run roughshod over the Rights of Man. Those Rights, if respected by our leaders, give us Freedom, not socialism.

"Governments, however, do not have the authority" but they have the power, and that is all that really matters even once one realizes the DC-tax regime, in our case, has no legitimacy.



"Those Rights, if respected by our leaders, give us Freedom, not socialism. "

This is much closer to a working definition for 'Rights.'
