Uh, no. I think drugs should be legal.

We should look at some of the land policies of Singapore though.

Didn't work out all that great for Ted Bundy, but I'm sure Brother Jed will fare much better in court.

If you're referring to Brother Jed, he has a very nice home in Indiana.

Excellent, courts love property as bail.

I think they should be, too.

That out of the way, show me which countries have the most freedom as the USA while also having lower incarceration rates and lower capital punishment rates than the USA.

Not to put too fine a point on it, but every first world country has lower capital punishment rates than the USA.

As Klansky would say, DUCY?

Also, I mean, trolling aside, the USA has 2% of the world's population and 25% of the world's incarcerated population. You know who has much lower incarceration rates than the USA? China. India. Russia. Iran. I could go on.

You know what fascists do? They scream about freedom and bibles and constitutions while locking up and executing their enemies. The people who wrote the constitution would be ****ing horrified about how it's being used.

I'll expound a little on DonkJr's post.

In our formative years, let's say 15, some of us read "Atlas Shrugged". Others read Marx and Engels. The smarter ones realise that both of those are extremist positions and take a more centrist view. Others, like you, never grow out of it. It's just basically saying that you are a bit of a dumb-dumb, nothing more.

Ironically enough, Ayn Rand, Karl Marx, and Friedrich Engels were all intelligent enough to know that their position was an extreme, and were using it as a foil for counterarguments. Unfortunately, their followers are not as intelligent as they were.

Then follow it up with one of the more delete worthy sentences seen around these parts of the internet.

The thing about poor people is there are a lot of them and they are vulnerable because they don't have a) the money to defend themselves from the grift of the wealthy and b) lack knowledge of institutions and practices that flows through more privileged networks which can be used to sidestep financial pitfalls or take advantage of opportunities and c) the mere time and energy to close the knowledge gap (because they actually work).

The lottery is funded by poor people.

Convenient stores prey on poor people with high markups that pay for the convenient store owners house in the suburbs and kids college tuition.

The entire payday loan industry is premised on swindling poor people.

The credit card industry is largely premised on swindling poor people. You know how many credit cards wealthy people have? One. Poor people will have 7 of them. They will use it to keep the heat on in the winter and end up paying 30 times the original charge for it.

The banking industry gets a major share of it's profit by targeting poor people for fees.

Have you ever heard of slum lords?

Have you ever checked the rates jails and prisons charge for people to make phone calls or video conference with a visitor or the rate of compensation for prison labor? The state is by no means innocent in this.

Finding new ways to squeeze money out of the poor is the subtext of the American dream.

And Inso0 has heard of slum lords, he is/works for one.

China has more freedoms and lower capital and incarceration rates than the USA? Incarceration rates don't mean shiit when they're whacking people instead of putting them in prison.

There is a reason why I didn't respond to your post asking me why I went to prison, and it's not because I accidentally missed it.

But yeah, to answer your question, I've seen a man beat another man to a bloody pulp, then put 40 holes in him with what the authorities would later describe as an "inmate made weapon" for good measure. Have you?

An excellent take, and I'd say that it goes even further than that. Being poor is an expensive proposition in every facet of life. Want to buy a home? Sorry, you don't have the down payment sufficient to buy one, you have to rent in a worse area and pay more in rent than you would a mortgage. Got the down payment together after busting your ass for years? Too bad, the price of housing has increased 40% in the last year, better keep on renting. You got 5% together for a down payment? Well, your income and credit history is just not up to snuff; your interest rate is going to be significantly higher than you'd expect, and don't forget having to pay mortgage insurance every month for good measure.

FWIW, I see the point that Inso was trying to make, but in this case he is mistaken.

When your boy Jed gets done for statutory rape, as all the sanctimonious religionists are wont to, they will prob set bail at about 200k cash/2m property. So, handy for him that he has a nice house.

I was unaware that he has been charged with statutory rape. Source?

Oddly enough many republicans are happy to tell me that America is not a democracy. I never realized they also thought democracy was obsolete.
Its a Democratic Republic, not a "democracy", the difference isn't minor.
Anyway, per your definition, American Republicans aren't anywhere near that. Could it be because you're so sheltered/naive and clueless as to what actual 'fascism' looks like that you simply apply yet another (x)ist label to anyone you disagree with?

I get my info from up on high. I'm afraid the big man doesn't want to be credited; in fact, he is pretty shy, he doesn't even want to be shown.
