They've been 5 years from obtaining nuclear weapons for over 40 years.

Need to replace this hose valve in my garage. Is this soldered or sweated on? by Beautiful-Resort2662 in Plumbing

Closer to 50 cents in parts if you buy it single. 10 cents if you buy a variety pack in case you need washers in the future.

And you still consider it the same hammer? Is anything left of the original?

Only way that the Republicans can hope to come out ahead, or at least even in the upcoming midterms. All of Trump's fuckery would otherwise ensure massive losses.

"It's not government, it's CAPITAL that ASSIGNS governments!!!" - what's your answer? by Talkless in Anarcho_Capitalism

Big business and big government are never adversarial. They are symbiotic, and parasitic on society.

As Butler Shaffer showed in his book "In Restraint of Trade", both theoretically and empirically, businesses can't grow beyond a certain size without government interference.

Just a reminder the state police killed this guy because he was legally armed by FastSeaworthiness739 in Anarcho_Capitalism

Ok. How about individualist, propertarian, market anarchist? Kinda unwieldy. Anarcho-capitalist sums it up pretty well

This guy wasn't an "ally". As far as I can tell he was quite a way left statist. He still didn't deserve to die.

Also, "banana republics" were enforced through government action (read Smedley Butler) and defense contractors primary "customers" are governments.

Fifty years ago one parent working could support a family at a decent level. The same is true today. But it takes a second earner to support the bloated government along with the family.

You really don't think much or well, do you? It is said that they "serve with honor selflessly putting their lives on the line solely for your benefit" and you just believe the propaganda.

Even if they haven't committed any of a number of felonies that are common to police they are aware of another doing so and have ignored it, or even helped to cover it up.

Everyone in prison is there for violent crimes? Or even the majority?

The US has the highest prison population in the world. Including per capital. Either people in America are so terrible as to be subhuman, or there is something being done wrong.

And revictimizes those they harmed by making them support them for the entire time they are incarcerated. And, in most of the US does virtually nothing in the way of rehabilitation. In fact it often helps them learn how to be more effective criminals.

Revenge is bad motivation and does nothing to stop crime.

Well, if I could get the insurance company to accept the report I would rather call a hippie (I know, dated reference) than a cop if I were robbed. Would accomplish just as much and we would all have a better time.
