Arent national borders part of the borders enclosing personal property rights?[/quote]

Not the same.

The borders protecting your property protect you from other people taking it. When we have population growth via births or immigration, the new people create new wealth and new property. Your share of total may be diluted, but your total wealth may well increase. For sure, aggregate property increases.[/quote]

Not for sure. Imagine a pool of immigrants that exclusively commit crime to survive. That would be a drain, right.

There’s nothing particular naturally about national borders. But they are real. You probably don’t have a natural right to be anywhere on the globe absent plane travel, 6a heavily regulated industry subject to various national rules.

Everyone has the natural right. They’re just prevented from exercising that natural right by filth from various governments, including ours.

I will not lift a pinky to help enforce national borders. I won’t vote for scum like Donnie that threaten to enforce them more zealously. I won’t snitch on someone whom I know is in the US illegally. I won’t answer anything other than the legally required questions at internal checkpoints or show an iota of gratitude. Etc.[/quote]

I like organic unplanned growth and I’m against zoning. [/quote]

Did you see the movie “Up”? Where the elderly man’s home ended up surrounded by factories? The only people I’ve ever known who were against land use planning were somewhat Donald Trump-like.

[quote=FlyerInHi] I’m for broad policies that improve our lives; fiscal and monetary policies that increase economic activity. [/quote]

Who isn’t?

[quote=FlyerInHi] I’m for welcoming immigrants, multiculturalism, and building a society that is connected to the world. [/quote]

Maybe you haven’t noticed but all societies are connected to the world other than a few in the Amazon and a few other isolated pockets.

Brian – you seem to love everyone very much. How many hours have you spent volunteering your time for your fellow man over the past year? Plus – you live alone from what I can tell so why don’t you invite some immigrants to join you? If they promise not to make a mess?[/quote]

There’s a recent http://www.humansofnewyork.com shot of a Liberian woman who was taken in by a Jewish couple in NYC that made me cry. She’s on full purple third from the top

[quote=spdrun]I can’t speak for FlyerInHI, but as far as inviting immigrants to join me, I guess you’re saying the country is a metaphor for a house —

(1) My concept of personal space doesn’t extend that far
(2) My government doesn’t often speak for me. I’m intelligent enough to realize that the fact that THEY don’t invite someone to my country doesn’t automagically make them a “bad” person. Just a person who (by accident of birth) wasn’t born in the US, and didn’t go through a lot of bullshit bureaucracy to come here. They have no more or less natural right to be anywhere in the world than you or I. I don’t feel nationalism or American exceptionalism strongly.[/quote]

[quote=bearishgurl][quote=FlyerInHi]Mustard oil and turmeric are good. But you’re going to have some unsightly yellow teeth.[/quote]LOL…[/quote]

Color irrelevant if inflammation reduced.

[scaredyclassic]

I’m gonna start making my own toothpaste of baking soda and coconut oil.

Tastes a little weird.

For mouthwash I’m gonna use mustard oil and turmeric. I’m going to floss with regular western floss. Gotta go find some mustard oil.

[scaredyclassic]

I am scared.

I plan to go ever 3 months, but 10 months elapsed since last visit.

Ayurvedic treatment involves mustard oil and turmeric . Also rinsing with oils. I’m gonna try that too.

Inflammation.

I don’t think one can wear out gums and still have teeth. When the gums go the teeth fall out.

Twizzlers was a bad joke. I eat loads of sugar though. I thought burning it off with exercise was OK. Well, no more. I love twizzlers, cookies, cake, candy, caramel, popcorn, rice, juice, smoothies, pie, jam, jelly, ice cream, esp. Ice cream..

It’s over. I’m old.

[scaredyclassic]

[quote=Blogstar]You should take huge bites, chew with your mouth open and eat like a pig. I do that and I don’t have gum disease. I think it works your gums harder and keeps them strong. Our food is too soft that’s the problem, eat harder.[/quote]

I’ve been chomping on twizzlers forvyears, hasn’t worked.

[scaredyclassic]

It’s a little tricky for me, as I eat 2 slices of toast pretty much every morning of my life…but I am sufficiently scared and therefore ready to make a change.

Because Obama refuse to do what Republicans told him to do, they are left with no choice to burn its own party down. Donald Trump is Obama’s creation and its great triumph of his presidency.
[/quote]

lol! Obama gets the blame for everything! 🙂

[quote=utcsox]

See this amazing article from the Wall Street Journal below:

http://www.wsj.com/articles/obamas-greatest-triumph-1459379804%5B/quote%5D

You do realize one must have a WSJ account to view the article, right? I doubt many folks will be viewing the content referenced by your link.[/quote]

I will think the Piggs will be smart enough to realize that if you google “Obama’s greatest triump” and you can click the link from the search and view the article for free.[/quote]

Wow, that’s idiotic, WSJ. Block a direct link but allow non-members in through Google. Brilliant.

That article said virtually nothing to support its claim that Obama destroyed the Republican party. A waste of ether space. It is hilarious that some Republicans blame Obama even for their own actions!! My God, talk about not taking responsibility for anything![/quote]

Definitely doesn’t work as a defense in domestic violence case. “I wouldn’t have had to slap the bitch if she would just do what I told her” won’t help.

Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society.
Mark Twain

[scaredyclassic]

It is true that clothes don’t make the man. Yet I am very concerned with how I dress. I knew a lawyer once whose life was falling apart. His clothes literally were coming apart. I remember seeing a loose seam at the edge of his pocket. Drug problem. I remember thinking… do something about yr. Pocket.

The home is more private, so a different thing. I think more decay at home is OK.

[scaredyclassic]

My neighbors have a pretty annoying dog breeding business. Dogs yip. Lady screams at the inexplicably from time to time.

I never called the cops, though I thought about it once or twice over the years.

[scaredyclassic]

Wait. I can’t live in my garage?
