    So you favor less government controls and lower taxes on business and free enterprise. Free market and no trade tariffs. [All of which are government controls.]

      See here for my views on Clinton. As I mention there: "I would genuinely love to see Hillary Clinton go to jail."

        Actually YOU put Trump in the White House. He wouldn't have gotten 1% of the vote if it wasn't for the widespread spiritual and cultural devastation caused by progressive policies. There's no "this country" left with your immigration policies, your "allies" are worthless and even more suicidal than you are and democracy is a sick joke that I hope nobody ever thinks about repeating when the current order collapses. - Darth_Executor striking a conciliatory note in Civics 101

            It seems to me that some liberals are functionally anarchists. When you can apply the law to politician A and not apply the same law to politician B and defend that was the way things should be that isn't any type of lawfulness but rather just centering how society is to be run on one's own preferences. Isn't that functionally anarchy? Imagine the law is a sword. The person uses the sword on politician A and not on politician B based only on personal preferences. That seems like anarchy to me.
            I think what you are trying to describe is not anarchy but a lack of the Rule of Law. The idea of the rule of law is not a distinction from anarchy, but opposition to dictatorship--rule by (the whims of) men. Standing law vs (e.g.) the dictator ruling by doing whatever he wants to whomever he wishes in the moment. The latter may be a powerful ruler, thus clearly not anarchy.

              (I take you to mean "liberal" in the modern American sense.) And yet, in 8 pages of another thread ( http://www.theologyweb.com/campus/sh...rsonal-liberty ), we were unable to identify many instances in which the left stand for freedom. It's pretty much just sex.
