what if EVERYONE shouts: stop the madness? what if EVERYONE knows that it is madness? after all, if it is madness, everyone can know it - if everyone cant know it, maybe it isnt madness [which is why there is no reason for force - either it's right, & so everyone can know it, & force is not needed, or it's wrong, & force is not appropriate - use of force by a govt proves that the govt is stealing - if communists had believed in communism, they wouldnt have believed that everybody would want to get away from it - they wd hav let anyone leave because they wd have believed that most ppl wd see the benefits - stopping ppl leaving PROVED the leaders were thieves] -
improving the general human idea of reality is the only way to destroy our miseries - testing our accepted ideas - [testing yr ideas doesnt mean you dont believe in them - the railway engineer checks the wheels regularly - it doesnt mean he thinks wheels are bad]
everyone agrees that taking 90% off 90% of ppl wd be very bad

why aren't protectionist barriers the appropriate remedy for countries like Italy to defend themselves from the Chinese economic rise?

Mine would have to be matches. I will light them, but not without extreme fear! I don't like the surprise. I also don't like those rolls that pop out at you in the round container. :)

I feel like men walk over me all the time.I was at my homecoming and I was dancing with a good amle friend of mine and his girlfriend was giving me this evil look. But I really wanted to steal him from her.And I feel that if I can't be happy why should other women feel happy with a boyfriend?


I just hate to see a wonderful beautiful couple walk down the street, happy and loving.


I was cheated on, and I felt horrible. And I steal do because it happened more than once. I don't think anyone should be happy if I'm not.

I am participating in a class on religion conflict management. I must begin the class with a ritual involving mediation. Anyone out there have any good ideas? Past examples range from tribal rituals to youth group ice breakers.

Thanks!

if the ppl seeking justice are pursuing the re-popularisation of limiting fortunes [like the founding fathers, like jesus, like all wise ppl, like all happy societies] can they be secretly seeking wealth/power? i mean, how can a person get wealth/power if he seeks to limit fortunes to the just maximum a person can earn by their own work[seems to be less than US$2 million]? isnt it true that you be SURE that ppl seeking justice by limiting fortunes arent secretly seeking wealth/power?
the amount a person can contribute to the social pool of wealth is limited [no. of workhours in a lifetime, maximum hardness of working/hr] so unlimited fortunes HAVE to be injustice [ie, mostly pay for no work, ie, theft]?
if you pay tertiary students for studying, all 'reasons' for higher than av hrly pay are unjust [& therefore cause destruction of states, happiness, peace, safety, pleasure, everything good]?

Suppose you are a daddy of many kids who don't think you're a greatest daddy in the world. You chain smoke your favorite cigars every day which all your kids and everyone in the neighborhood are aware of. Your kids are interested in trying out Marlboro Lights cigarettes. You say "No" to your kids while you smoke your cigar in their presence and letting your kids smell the smoke you're puffing out. Further more, as a punishment to trying out Marlboro Light, you've stopped all allowance to your kids.

Is this not very similar to what U.S. is doing to those small countries they don't like and to any other countries they won't allow the big bombs based on their judgement? In other word, U.S. telling small countries they don't like "Do what we say. Don't do what we do. If you disobey us, we'll wipe you off the map of earth." By human nature, no one likes being told what to do while someone dictating is doing exaclty what they're pohibting. Does this kind of U.S.'s

when we are 18 we feel like adults, yet when we are 25 we look at 18 year olds as children. when we are 25 we feel all grown up, yet when we're 40 we look at 25 year olds as adolescents. obviously age brings more experience... but why is it so hard to keep relating to people younger than you? why do we feel worlds apart?

some ppl think like this: we have rule of law, happiness, peace, order, wealth, other nations hav corrupt govts, protected elites, centralised planning, poverty, misery
does the ego make us unreal, & therefore miserable by such tricks? [realism is an absolutely essential requirement for happiness/ wellbeing/ quality of life]
when the founding fathers outlawed entail & primogeniture to limit fortunes, prevent wealth concentration, to prevent tyranny destroying the republic, was that centralised planning? when lawyers use rule of law made by govt lawmakers, is that not centralised planning? what is govt & law but centralised planning?
we dont have protected elites, corrupt govts?
laws are like spiders webs, they catch the little but the big break thru - to have rule of law, you have to limit 'size' of individuals to prevent breaking thru - a 1950s senate committee said big business was bigger than govt - yr govt hav not been usurped by 'the great'? you can control monopoly?
