114. What you advocate
is not self government. With the elimination of private property, you destroy self government. Even in a democracy, the government isn't "us". You advocate an elite trying to organize society according to its own particular whims. That is tyranny. You're out to lunch and those who advocate your views are so numerically insignificant, that it's not even worth a discussion. The matter has been settled historically. China and all of the other countries successfully moving out of the third world are not doing what you advocate. They're going the other way. There's no sense in rehashing the debate that you had below with Walt Starr. Good day.
