Socialist "logic." You can't make this sh*t up...

[Raoul_Luke]

British historian E.H. Carr, writing in 1951, observed that, for the modern era, “freedom from the economic constraint of want was clearly just as important as freedom from the political constraint of kings and tyrants.”

Carr justified the array of economic controls in postwar Britain: “The price of liberty is the restriction of liberty. The price of some liberty for all is the restriction of the greater liberty of some.”

This is the "logic" our nation is embracing:

Freedom from want is a ridiculous snowflake concept that is a horrible idea for mankind in general. Without freedom from want, there would be no reason to do ANYTHING.

Ridiculous. But... that's what liberals want. We need to keep fighting to prevent them from getting what they want.

Which came first, the freedom from economic constraint of want or the political constraint of kings and tyrants?

In most cases want is the motivation which drives us to be better. The left wants to remove that motivation and make a class of dependency enslaved to the democrat party. They know that most people wont vote out a meal ticket.

The home of Putin puppetry.

Former Zero Hedge writer Colin Lokey said that he was pressured to frame issues in a way he felt was "disingenuous," summarizing its political stances as "Russia=good. Obama=idiot. Bashar al-Assad=benevolent leader. John Kerry=dunce. Vladimir Putin=greatest leader in the history of statecraft." Zero Hedge founder Daniel Ivandjiiski, in response, said that Lokey could write "anything and everything he wanted directly without anyone writing over it."[20] On leaving, Lokey said: "I can't be a 24-hour cheerleader for Hezbollah, Moscow, Tehran, Beijing, and Trump anymore. It's wrong. Period. I know it gets you views now, but it will kill your brand over the long run. This isn't a revolution. It's a joke."[5]

Funny how all the doom and gloom impending economic crash articles ended as soon as Vlad's bitch was in the WH. Or did they just give up after 8 yrs of lying on an non compromised US leader ?

Some people just don't pay attention.

When you do a job do you do it for money or because you like what you do and are a master of the trade? I have been fortunate in life to have a business that I enjoy doing and so do the people who worked for me. All were masters and I did not charge an arm and a leg. I do work now for free and still am a master of the trade. so I guess I am a failure by repuke standards.

Cool so you worked for free? Awesome! Do you own a car? A house? Got kids? Did they ever go anywhere, on vacation, to college, to a baseball game? Got any hobbies? Did ya eat?

Even if you didn't charge "an arm and a leg" (by your standards, btw)... you still worked for money unless you're sleeping under a bridge.

If want is so good for everyone, we certainly ought to tax the rich to the point that they become as driven as the rest of us ... no?

Most people are rich because they wanted something. Over taxing the rich only punishes those down the food chain. The people who work for the places they buy from, the people they employ, the charities that they give too.

I really don't know where you learned logic from, but you really should sue them.

Those who are willing to trade liberty for a sense of security deserve neither!

No, most people aren't rich. Most people who are rich are rich because they were born that way and they never had to take responsibility for anything in their lives ... just like Trump. Taxing the rich enables us to avoid depending on then for jobs, markets, or charity.

By the way:

Zero Hedge hired Colin when he approached us over a year ago begging for a job after he was fired with cause from Seeking Alpha following a fight with a coworker. This should have set off alarm flags but we ignored it.

Colin was a good writer, covering topics ranging from finance to economics to politics. Oddly enough, Colin had no qualms with capitalism when he accepted the money he was paid: as Bloomberg wrote, "his salary helped pay the rent on a “very nice” condominium on South Carolina’s Hilton Head Island." Perhaps he should have refused any compensation to demonstrate his allegiance to some "anticapitalist" cause?

More importantly, and unfortunately, Colin also was revealed to be an emotionally unstable, psychologically troubled alcoholic with a drug dealer past, as per his own disclosures.

All of these revelations were made clear to us long after we hired Colin, and unfortunately they were the catalyst that precipitated his full emotional collapse and ultimately led to his abrupt departure. All of these facts were also made clear to Bloomberg as part of its source "fact-checking." Surprisingly to us, Bloomberg had no problems running a sole-sourced piece by a disgruntled former employee who not only admitted he had major psychological problems, a checkered past, was unstable, but had also made clear his motive to "out" this website with hopes of crushing it and even issued death threats to Zero Hedge workers.

In short: in its desire to obtain ad-revenue generating clicks, Bloomberg provided a platform to a deranged person who held a major grudge.

How sad it must be to have to tell your self that so as to feel better about your life failures an to justify your sense of entitlement. SO VERY SAD!

So he was mentally ill ? Hmmmm, sound familiar ? Who else uses that excuse to get ride of those who defy the regime and locks those people up for their own safety ?

That wasn't a persecution, it was an explanation. Colin Lokey's text messages speak for themselves.

Dude that site is a pro Putin propaganda outfit who duped you for years about the impending economic collapse. You ate up their garbage then and you are still dining on it now.

You people need to familiarize yourselves with the long con the Russians have been using on you.
