China's economy is in serious trouble. GDP is meaningless if? there is no profit. China has lost its advantage of low cost. They'll keep wasting money on stimulus but nothing can save them now that their economy will not sustain itself without government stimulus.

A refreshing World View! Something I value and seek daily. Please be encouraged to continue your pursuit of educating all of? us :)

I've seen that clip some time ago. I don't see Sovereignty as stealing. If you don't recognize? the Commons, and somehow believe that people can have allodial title to land and natural resources by whatever "divine right" you choose, then you are not supporting liberty IMO. A serf on a Baron's Estate is not free. Claiming exclusive use of land is achieved by threat of violence alone. It is the initiation of force. Land and severance taxes are not theft.
By: LibertyDownUnder. on 04 May 12, 23:31:00
Well if part of your definition of 'human rights' is the right to steal someone else's stuff just because they worked harder than you, then I'm not? on board with this. Please watch the clip I sent you if you have time. Its author is 80+ years old and is in jail for his views.
By: etzel33. on 04 May 12, 11:06:24
I agree, and I'm not against land enclosure at all. I just believe? that land and natural resources should be paid for, that privilege should be the source of public revenues and not labor/trade. Many countries have done this successfully. It's when property rights supercede human rights that people are subjugated by law. Liberty and democracy are not opposing ideas.
By: LibertyDownUnder. on 04 May 12, 05:45:30
Countries without property rights are doomed for food shoartages, and ultimatley startvation. There's a difference between a rich guy like Bill Gates who built his company from scratch, and between? Wall St bankers who get special deals & easy credit from the Govenrment. The current system is certainly broken, but its very important to learn what the root cause of it is before coming to conclusion. Have a look at this one if you have the time: /watch?v=bFxvy9XyUtg
By: etzel33. on 04 May 12, 03:02:49
Well, the only real issue is human? rights, and whether or not colonial governments are willing to recognize them. The economies of the world have been ruined totally, entire nations effectively in serfdom, all for the security of wealth alone. How else does one secure Liberty? The graces of the king?
By: LibertyDownUnder. on 04 May 12, 02:20:41
That's a pretty dangeours definition of Democracy. If you want this 'eat the rich' mentality, you can ruin a country in a matter of months. Robert Mugabe turned his country from a rich, productive one, to a starving nation in about 6 months, just with? the policies you wrote there.
By: etzel33. on 04 May 12, 00:45:59
It? depends... If the function of the state is to protect wealth, then democracy is finished. If the function of the state is to protect people and secure their rights, then you have liberty (imo)
By: LibertyDownUnder. on 04 May 12, 00:31:09
It takes 2? to tango, corruption is not a new thing. Voters need to be smart enough to know when they're being conned, there's not much else that can save a country.
By: etzel33. on 03 May 12, 12:46:50
Government didn't take over the financial sector. The financial? sector took over government :)

They do not do as well as Japan. Japan? is 2nd or 3rd in the world for output. In fact the top ten most industrialised countries all have large populations to fuel their demand. And the top emerging economies like Brazil, India and South Africa all have large populations.
By: LibertyDownUnder. on 03 May 12, 05:18:43
The size of the population doesn't have much to do with their prosperity.? There are many countries with much smaller populations than Japan that do very well.
By: DJFU999. on 02 May 12, 19:29:41
If India and China consumed as much food and resources as America, those three countries would require? all the resources currently available on earth.
By: v1o. on 02 May 12, 14:07:53
Japan has? a smaller population than the US or Europe. If each person in China were as productive as the average Japanese, China would be a superpower several times over.

Labenstraum?
By: LibertyDownUnder. on 02 May 12, 04:06:32
20? years ago everyone thought Japan was the next superpower. Then their Government took over the financial sector, started bailing out banks, borrowing & spending too much - and they have been in a 20 year recession. China will do the same, but probably be much worse off.
