  1. Won't happen!
  2. I just don't see how it can be judicious for political parties to ask voters to follow them in bravery for the sake of balancing budgets.
  3. Locke, Rousseau, Hobbes have made history precisely by outlawing private ownerhip of guns as means of protecting private property.
  4. Chances are that you owe your very notion of citizenship to workers' unions and there is less need for corporate taxation when these unions can bargain directly for a fair share of corporate earnings.
  5. Given birth to white babies in order to have more border guards for the next generation!?
  6. I don't have to re-pass my exams period.
  7. Workers often defend themselves by saying: "we are not only numbers!"
  8. A tautology like this one won't pass a school exam.
  9. "Why Canada doesn't dare disturbing work patterns?" would have been a more revealing subtitle for this topic.
  10. Segnosaur wrote "we have to do a better job at providing basic science and logic in school." You wrongly reply "Very good point. Critical thinking and analytical thinking seems to be missing…"
  11. The young are already accepting evolution so we don't have to do a better job in school.
  12. Racism will remain the problem here.
  13. I find this seemingly libertarian view self-defeating: individual powerlessness putting the blame on the State!
  14. Attention smart people! No Holy day is in sight therefore you don't need meat.
  15. The World's overpopulation is nothing to be happy about.
  16. Bottom line: it's public office holders who take the decisions about charitable deductions.
  17. Canadians were not questioned about any gnostic version of the creation.
  18. We live in a society where the State acts as if it was not the Master. In other words, prohibiting a behavior is more and more becoming itself prohibited in capitalist societies. In this context, women, simply by playing a submissive role, can become more subversive than men. Their submissiveness will indeed force the Master/state to reveal its true fundamental and obscene nature.
  19. The crucial aspect is that to protect a private property from public infringements, one needs the help of a community with some kind of social contract.
  20. Strictly speaking, we (that is you and me) can only start a political movement to implement what we will agree upon about the world economy.
  21. To me, everything concerning people like the Gates has to be dealt with through a critical evaluation of the role of patent protection.
  22. A political party is elected on the basis of its ideas for the near future. If it is able to convince the population that under its watch the productivity and efficiency of the present economy will be improved, it may not have to bother about the present debt.
  23. The long term ability to tax is strictly relative to natural assets which are poorly correlated with what we can understand by "the economy".
  24. Let's not forget that most not-for-profit organizations may only be front organizations (loopholes) allowing the rich to promote anti-redistributionist propaganda (think to the Fraser Institute for example).
