Ron Paul is coming to my university

[QUOTE="FalcoLX"]Let's get this straight, Laihendi, unless you're in your 30s and have been working and paying taxes that whole time YOU did not pay for your education. Other people paid for your education so that you can, in turn, get a good job and return that benefit to everyone else. You're too young to have paid more taxes than the benefit you've gotten out of it.Chemistian

[QUOTE="NEWMAHAY"][QUOTE="Laihendi"] There is nothing wrong with me using the public university system. The government built that system with my money. I have a right to the services paid for with my money. I am not a hypocrite. Ayn Rand herself said that people should take advantage of the government programs they are forced into funding. I will not let my money pay for someone else's education and not my own. And Mingmao I recommend keeping track of Ron Paul's university appearances because he has been making a lot of them since he retired from congress.Laihendi

Before and after your education at a university, you will not be using it. Are you going to complain then?

I am not currently going to disclose information on my university, major, year, etc. for privacy purposes.

I am so happy that I will meet a man who is my equal.

[QUOTE="Laihendi"]

[QUOTE="whipassmt"] I could think of worse ideas, like Nazism or "Marxist-Leninist-Mao Zedong thought". Though yes libertarianism, like any political philosophy, if taken to extremes and applied overzealously can be flawed and problematic.

Yet anyone else who uses those services, though they have paid just as much if not more into then as you have, is a "moocher". Yeah, you're a hypocrite.

Can we all just take a second and admire Laihendi's hypocrisy?

I've seen him on numerous occasions bash and denounce taxation of people as *stealing*, yet he turns around and rationalizes publicly funded institutions when it's convenient for him.

  Hey man, he has said that he has been diagnosed as autistic. Some things you just gotta let slide. :lol:

I'm sorry to hear that. 

aliright this settles it, OP is a troll

Autism isn't some sort of disorder or anything though.  Its just a different way of thinking to free yourself form the shackles of statism.

Also my book will be maybe 100-150 pages and I do not expect to make much (or perhaps any money). I want it to be widely distributed and read before the 2014 election. I am not writing for monetary gain.

You are being ignorant. I am not rationalizing anything. My money was stolen to build the public education system, therefore I have a right to use it. It is rightfully mine. My money should never have been stolen, but it was. These universities should not be subsidized, but they are. I have never said that people should let their money be stolen and then not even use the programs that their money was used to buy. That would be idiotic, as those people would only be further victimizing themselves. Also Conan O'Brien is not funny at all.Laihendi

Poor people are moochers because they do not pay for the government programs they use. Only the rich and middle class pay for them. Poor people pay less taxes than anyone, and they consume more government subsidies than anyone. That is what it means to be a moocher.Laihendi

So what was your effective tax rate last year then?

Laihendi

The GOP has the electoral advantage in the coming senatorial elections, as 21 Democrats will be up for re-election, as opposed to only 14 Republican incumbents. Assuming that incumbent candidates retain their seats in comparable numbers to the past election cycle, the Republicans need only a four seat net victory to take over the senate. This is certainly possible.

That being said, Laihendi, you really need to dial back your ego. Books, speeches, blogs and Youtube videos are not what a person of action does. Those are for people talking about doing great things without actually making a difference. Do you intend to volunteer for a campaign? Do some fundraising? Possibly even accept the best GOP candidate that can win (ie: a centrist) over an ideologue that cannot? That is what makes a "man of action."
