There's a question that's been bothering me,
Often, when debating politics, you come across people that claim to be
individualist on personal freedom and collectivist on economic freedom.
How's that possible?
1.What we do in our personal life IS dependent on our economic choices, where you live, where you work, what you eat, your entertainment, etc.
And what you do in your personal life, get knocked up with 5-8 kids.
That does have an impact on your economic choices, you would then need to spend less, on entertainment, vacations, etc.
2.When you elect someone that is totalitarian on economic issues, you ARE, in effect, picking someone that believes that certain human actions must be controlled and policed, how can someone with such a mindset be trusted to leave the non economic actions alone.
3.How is the government not going to use control over your economic life, as leverage when they blackmail you on personal freedom.
For eg, the same male French voters that vote in Leftists, that set ridiculous rules for private businesses such as, 2 month vacation, 35 hr work week, have banned parental testing for THOSE voters.
That's all I have, for NOW.
