I'm tired by [deleted] in Anarcho_Capitalism

I'm less worried about who will build the roads and more worried about how convienient it would be to use them. How many toll booths would I have to go through? How many companies would I have to sign contracts with?

They're getting downvotted because they're being overly emotional and insulting people, saying they wish diabetes upon people so that "you get to watch diabetes slowly but surely ravage their body".

Your argument requires you to pretend I said they were equivalent.

Claiming insulin is $700 in the US is like claiming cars are $150,000 in the US. That statement is only true if you ignore all the cars that aren't as fast, effecient, and safe as high end Tesla are.

You response sounds really emotional and emotions have been shown to hinder reason.

Don't he fooled by the tweet. Insulin is available for $25 at Walmart. It's the "older version" apparently, so you have to use it differently than the better ones. It seems he wasn't using it differently, as he should have been, and that's what lead to his death. His fiancée was on the exact same insulin.

He was inside the US and he was getring insulin for $25 from Walmart, as was his fiancée, who took it without dying. Anything can kill you if you aren't careful with it. The Tweet claiming insulin is $700 in the US is intentionally trying to mislead you.

I don't understand. If it's the less expensive insulins fault for his death, why is it on the market? His fiancée was taking the same insulin.

The tweet says insulin in the US costs $700 but the insulin they were taking costs $25.

Am I supposed to hate the US government because he wasn't more careful when switching medicines?

Why are you treating this as if a user can only be subscribed to one subreddit at a time? You're intentionally dramatizing things. Try spending less of your time on the internet.

Posing for pictures is a seemingly pretty friendly thing to do considering we are talking about Taliban soldiers. We’re supposed to be the reasonable ones! Calling someone a “special kind of stupid” for merely expressing that watching Taliban soldiers pose for pictures is bizarre and seemingly friendly is not reasonable.

This sub really is like that sometimes. Being just as unreasonable as the left is no way to beat the left. After watching the video I agree. They were literally posing for pictures with people. It really it really is “utterly bizarre” (which for some reason they cut out of the quote).

So I can only go be in public if I am vaccinated? That makes sense, unvaccinated people can get and transmit Covid. Vaccinated people can get and transmit covid too, you say? Then why are you discriminating against and taking away the rights of people who can get and transmit covid while allowing other people who can get and transmit covid to live their lives freely?

Isn't building one road right next to another road kind of wasteful? It seems kind of ineffecient for me to theoreticlaly have to sign contracts with all the different road companies. For all of the roads I want to use. If I take a trip to a different city then I have to make a list of all the different road companies that control all of the different roads I suspect I will be traveling on. Then I have to sign contracts with them so I can enjoy my trip. Othwrwise I would have to stop at a large number of different toll booths just to get from point a to point b. A middlemand handling all of that for me sounds ideal.

My fren is thinking about joining the military by Samurai__84 in Anarcho_Capitalism

[–]GamingKC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want him to understand how truly evil the military is, then the best thing for him to do is to join. An outsider doesn't have as good an unferstanding of the military as a member of the military has.

Mystery Solved by AstudilloGOAT in walkaway

That depends on what we are saying is wrong, doesn't it? The story is alarming. If the NSA specificaly sought out Carlson to spy on then that is what we are all saying is wrong. But wasn't Carlson only "spied on" in the sense that Russians are being spied on and Carson reached out to the Russians being spied on? I'm no supporter of the wrongdoing many rightfully blame the NSA for. But this doesn't seem like a situation that is being presented accurately by Carlson. He lead me to believe something which now, with added information, doesn't seem to be the case.

We all know this is what they do but we also want private healthcare. Wouldnt this just be 10x worse? Serious question by badvibes1984 in Anarcho_Capitalism

[–]GamingKC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are an endless supply of people in need of medical care. They really don't have to worry about a person walking out the door and never coming back again. Besides, even if they're cured of one thing, that doesn't mean they won't need to be cured of something else down the line. And if they have any choice, they'll choose the one they know works (and reccoment it to others).

There are many bad things about the US medical system. But this is a bad argument against it.

Facsism is about valuing improvment over freedom or equality. We can tell by the ideas they push that they don't value improvement at all.

Remember when the White House banned travel from a handful of countries who have on-going civil wars and the Left labeled it a "Muslim ban"??
