The "free" medical care at VA hospitals maybe subsidized by government, but it is free to those eligible.

The TV's, stereos, VCR's, furniture, jewelry, liquor, and clothes that people stole during the LA riots was "free" to them as well.

No one...believes that drug addicts...are going to be able to afford their own dope. It will be given to them "free."...by gov.

Not in a Libertarian society.

If your statements...aren't THEORY...precisely where they have been implimented? What state, county, municipality?

The United States, prior to enactment and enforcement of the War on Drugs.

So in other words Veterans are akin to looters? We enjoy such great FREE health care. Are you likening those coming home from Afghanistan as akin to street rioters/thugs? Want some FREE health care? Next time I go to VA you come with me. Heard about the nurse just arrested for murdering up to FORTY veterans at Columbia,MO VAH? Heard about the maggots found in the dead patient at KC VAH? Heard about the maggots found in a LIVING patient at Columbia VAH? Check in time is 8AM. Be there...

Again, to compare present day America to days gone by may be interesting, but not practical. To compare drugs of the past to today's drugs is to demonstrate zero knowledge of same. We are talking current day here. And I did say "implemented." Please re-read my statement. Prior to WOD the statutes re:drugs were virtually non-existant. I asked where your statements, if not THEORY, were IMPLEMENTED?

In a previous post you essentially asked why someone would continue to make hootch when they could buy it in a store? Why? For the same reason I make home made wine when I could buy wine in a store. It's BETTER!!!!!!

In an area related to this, but not part of discussion, just added for your info-during WW2 many farmers in this area put "corn squeezins" in their tractors. Roughly 10-20% mix to gas. Why? Gas rationing. Sort of the precursor of gasahol/ethanol,etc. Different refining methods of course. HOPEFULLY!

Ever tried EVERCLEAR? Probably closest thing on legal market to "shine," "moonshine," "hootch," etc.

Not to be overly Pecksniffian, but I did say in post 125, "If your statements aren't theory..." Key word, YOUR. Were you actually living before the WOD? Age of majority? If not, how then could YOUR statements have been implemented?
