You always use the classic reasoning used by totalitarian socialism. If the issue is education, food, clothing, shelter, TV, widgets or any goods or services, then a freedom advocate will point out how people provide for needs in a free market economy, and the response of the classic totalitarian socialist is that everything that people have in a free society can be provided by a totalitarian government because "Don't government providers have to answer to citizens too? Or at least to the provider board, who the citizens elect?" It is frightening how commonplace that response has become and how the people who provide that response to one subject (e.g. schools) NEVER OPENLY expand the response as was done in the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, Communist China, the National Socialist German Workers Party, Cuba, etc. It is as if the people who use that simplistic response do not know all the horrible ideologies that have used that same response. Very frightening. You do not think philosophically about the range of your own comments, and you simplistically rubber-stamp government programs that others start (because you are not enough of a creative thinker to come up with your own socialist ideas). Point to any website or even other group posts where you attempt to explain any political philsophy or philosophy of government that you hold (you hold none, other than rubber-stamp statism) or point to any philosophical defense of liberty (calling for the reduction of government programs, laws, socialism) that you have ever made. You can point to nothing. You are a rubber-stamp statist who uses the cliches of totalitarian socialism.
