“The fact is that you are praising him for using the force of the government to take money from others, thereby growing the size of government and destroying the economic liberties of those taxed to create his largesse. You obviously don’t have a clue as to what your own screen-name means... “
He did not “take money from others”, he took a loan. IF he doesn’t pay it back, you would have more of a point... The overall size of government is largely disjoint from any individual issue, no? On that front, the powers that be are 1000x more culpable than Elon Musk.
I’m all for liberty, at the same time I’m sensitive to the practicalities of the moment. Sometimes it’s better to run away, and live to fight another day. Other times, it’s just better to just shoot ‘em in the head. ;-)
Happy New Year!
Yeah... and no single raindrop thinks it's responsible for the flood.
Obviously the term "principle" has no meaning for you. I don't care how many other businessmen are doing it. If it's wrong, it's wrong. And taxing others to provide loans you can't get from actual investors is wrong. Period.
