But if you have a million acres and I take one step on your land, are you really 'hurt'?
Besides, the way copyright is abused, it's like I do something on my own land next to yours, and you try taking me to court for 'intruding' on you and 'wronging' you, just because you can see it.
And by the way, the rest of the world doesn't have the extreme American religion of 'property rights', so we don't give a flying pig's ear about your imaginary wrongs. Just like we laugh at the murderous gun laws you fight so hard to keep.
Hah, you might as well sue us for not wanting guns!
So people aren't allowed to be concerned citizens about something that doesn't actually directly affect them? Thank goodness, we can close down the Westboro Baptist Church and One Million Moms! Bryan Fischer can finally shut up!
Only if it was an American mule to whom 10% taxes are an 'undue burden' - unlike us Europeans who happily pay higher taxes so we - and everyone else - can get that surgery (or whatever) for as close to free as possible. Because we are humane and civilised.
Yes, I have yet to see a good capitalistic explanation of why private industry would actually care to support most people (i.e. the ones that need it) without a large government or social stick around. Sure, socialising it too much cna be bad, and the execution regardless can suck - but seriously, the American system really resembles two wolves and a sheep voting for lunch.
Where 'communism' falls down (at least in the health sphere) is that it tends to get overly corrupt (only a few benefit, controling most of the resources) and leaving the masses with the dregs. Hmm, sounds just like the capitalistic version, now I think about it.
If you die at 38 there's a lot of roads and schools you won't have to pay for, and poor starving arms manufacturers that may go out of business for the lack of your tax dollars ;)
