This web site explains what is going on with the "left" and the "right" in the modern economic sense. http://www.michaeljournal.org/myth.htm The meaning of "right" and "left" has changed. I stay with the original meaning for the same reason I refuse to call homosexual perverts "gay". The word "gay" was originally a good thing. The right is for outlawing homosexual perversion, prostitution, abortions, heroin, and other bad things. It puts the good of the nation first and ahead of the freedom of individuals to corrupt the culture of the nation. Leftists believe in the Rede of Witchcraft which states-- If it harm none, do what will you will. This sounds nice, but like the apple that the witch gave to Snow White it has poison within. The Rede of Witchcraft is the Bible of liberalism. It would legalize homosexual perversion, prostitution, drugs, etc. The right is for building a great nation. Leftists care only about individual freedom and are opposed to any laws that would make the nation better. There are beaches where normal families will not go because homosexual perverts practice their perversion on the beach. When the liberals say they are for freedom this is kind of thing they are talking about. Of course people should be free to do what they want most of the time. There is no argument there. Liberals are talking about being free to do things that many people object to and want outlawed. Their philosophy, taken to its logical conclusion, would not allow the law that says drivers have to stop at the red lights. Their philosophy would allow heroin to be sold on grocery store shelves and allow ads promoting heroin on TV. Their philosophy would result in chaos and degeneracy. Libertarians are liberals who want freedom for the Ebenezer Scrooges to be as greedy as they want. They have the same philosophy as other leftist who want to legalize heroin and prostitution, namely that the state can't tell them what they can't do. People don't like laws stopping them from doing things, and we should sympathize with that, but sometimes that is not the most important thing. Capitalists want freedom for greed, other liberals want freedom for degeneracy, but good laws would make a nation good. The Communists were leftist and they said they were fighting for freedom. In Spain they sided with the anarchists. The Communists and the anarchists were the same people or the same type of people. The Communists were for having government but only temporarily. They said that their government was necessary only until the whole world was Communist. After the world was Communist they wanted to dissolve the government and have an anarchy. The right wing cares about the future. Leftists only care about the present. If their philosophy results in a nightmare future like in Soylent Green or some other futuristic nightmare they are not interested and insist that nothing could be more important than the freedom of individuals to be as decadent as they want. To see the kind of society libertarians are fighting for see the movie "8MM", they aren't for the snuff part, but other than that it shows liberalism in action. http://www.ihr.org/ http://www.natvan.com http://www.thebirdman.org http://www.nsm88.org http://wsi.matriots.com/jews.html
