[quote user="liberty student"] tl:dr Rozeff is wrong. But the Misesians and Rockwellians and even Paulians to some degree have to avoid the third rail of conspiracy in order to look legit. I'm fine with that, but Rozeff is a little off base by denouncing it. After all, how can he know about a conspiracy he doesn't know about? In other

Government, whatever its de jure status, strongly tends toward oligarchy.

[quote user="Mark B."] This whole Constitutional Convention thing is garnering a lot more attention than I think it warrants. What is unsaid is that the 32 existing calls are more than 25 years old. It is unlikely that Congress will honor non contemporaneous calls for a Constitutional Convention. Congress has no desire to see a Constitutional

[quote user="Donny with an A"] James, the knowledge supposedly possessed by God cannot be faithfully represented in terms of bits of information without switching from the language of action to the language of physical processes. The same is true of God's supposed power. They're simply different kinds of things. I didn't follow
