X-Message-Number: 28149 Date: Fri, 30 Jun 2006 03:58:51 +0200 From: "Eivind Berge" <> Subject: Anthony Re Anthony and wealth: I have been reading Cryonet for ten years, but rarely had anything to contribute. However, a pathologically jealous common thief I think anyone can understand. I was born a libertarian, albeit in a social democratic country (Norway). Ever since I can remember, I have felt more sorry for rich people paying taxes than poor people starving -- because stealing is *unfair*. Although I am now more worried about the man-hating feminists than the plain socialists (though they go hand in hand), I still believe taxes are morally wrong, period. I myself benefit from precisely the type of system you are advocating: at 28 I have never had a job and am living on welfare. (And education didn't change it either, as I've got plenty of it.) Being ridiculously easy, that is my choice, to show my disrespect for people like you, who rule this country. Working simply does not pay in your socialist utopia, and some of us have the moral backbone to contribute to destroy the system rather than pay for somebody else to do what I do. If I were born into a fair country, I would have conducted my life otherwise. Being as it is, I am better off on the dole. By the way, "rapine," as you so tiresomely keep misapplying, is not an adjective. Learn English, at least. And if you want to learn about the kind of people you'll likely wake up with from cryonics, get used to it. Eivind Berge Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=28149
