Civilisation, as you rightly point out,has many parents in many parts of the globe. I had to look up chauvinism as I traditionally associated it with male/female dominate. Now I understand the term, I feel the problem is that we use it in a perceived civilisation terms. So trump uses it to demonise the Islamic civilisation. His time will pass too. We have achieved what we have achieved Globally, across rhe centuries. Not chauvinistically western. However, trump and the self - absorbed "west" may yet preside over the end of times through mismanagement of the planet. A civilisation will survive though and it will be more altruistic than chauvinistic.g23https://www.blogger.com/profile/16975038800925377106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4656364580154971571.post-5252498906264315462013-06-02T22:12:25.286-07:002013-06-02T22:12:25.286-07:00But how do you defend the nation without levying a...But how do you defend the nation without levying a tax? Even if people can come together and bring their own weapons and resources, those who have more would undoubtedly shoulder a greater burden (i.e the guy who has enough money to bring a tank). Thus even in that sense you have a transfer of wealth from a more wealthy person to a less wealthy person who otherwise would have to fight with whatever measly weapon he had available. <br /><br />Even when we are talking just about defense, the rich are subsiding the "lame, lazy, weak, stupid, and incompetent". <br /><br />In exchange though, they are offering up their lives to defend the nation.<br /><br />I think the problem comes when less successful people demand that more successful people subsidize their lives without offering anything in exchange, simply as a matter of some positive "right". <br /><br />Not only do they end up being dependent, they also end up loosing pride and confidence in their own abilities, thus perpetuating the very poverty we sought to eliminate. <br />David Focilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11438915422767033214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4656364580154971571.post-26598041583523171222013-05-20T11:54:12.645-07:002013-05-20T11:54:12.645-07:00I disagree.

In fact most nations (and, increasingly, our own) have a record of "protecting" negative rights similar to Mafia's record of "protecting" clients. "Nice freedom of speech ya have there. Be a shame if sumthin' happened to it." <br /><br />The defense of the nation is the duty of the state and largely the reason it is chartered. No military, no country. <br /><br />The transfer of wealth to the lame, lazy, weak, stupid, and incompetent, is simply a matter of buying their votes and those of soft hearted idiots who "care" but not enough to spend their own money and time. <br /><br />Harry the Horriblenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4656364580154971571.post-67395635447788191562013-05-16T20:10:49.256-07:002013-05-16T20:10:49.256-07:00You are correct, in terms of a pure positive right...You are correct, in terms of a pure positive right state, although many modern countries tend to use language that is more positive in nature when referring to rights in their constitutions. <br /><br />For example, you will often read things like: "the state shall respect and promote freedom of expression". With this you end up with all sorts of regulations on speech and expression in order to "promote" it, not to mention countless programs that use tax dollars.<br /><br />However, don't you agree that ultimately even negative rights are protected through the seizure of property though taxes? After all, without an army, any two bit country could take over the country and fail to respect your rights. Thus you will always need to take from the citizenry to provide a government capable of protecting even minimal rights.<br /><br />What do you think?David Focilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11438915422767033214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4656364580154971571.post-73068168083370619272013-05-16T19:11:18.200-07:002013-05-16T19:11:18.200-07:00“Negative Rights” are things that people cannot do...“Negative Rights” are things that people cannot do to you, or cannot stop you from doing.<br /><br />“Positive Rights” are things someone has give to you when you want them.<br /><br />If you are living in a country with “positive rights” you are living in an authoritarian or totalitarian society, because the labor and property of others are being seized to provide these “rights.” Harry the Horriblenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4656364580154971571.post-63026929883172420732009-04-01T20:46:00.000-07:002009-04-01T20:46:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.David Focilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11438915422767033214noreply@blogger.com
