Stated differently...your Making **** Up.
people believing life isn't self evident call self preservation greedy, selfish, egotistical, arrogant talking about I am instead of we are. Genetics breed individual soles adapting as displaced ancestrally position as an ever changing population left alive each rotation of the planet in series parallel event horizon cycles working the same way every generation gap new cycles replace dying ones that reproduced the numbers still living now.
In theory, theory and practice are the same...in practice, they aren't.
I have some reality for you. Try searching laissez faire economics in your search engine. You'll see the great wonders of the pure profit motive. Things like 10 year old children losing their limbs in 60 hour work weeks in slavery like conditions. There's that thing called history too. By the way, laissez faire is a French term for "let do" roughly translated. Faire typically means to make or do but it is sometimes difficult to translate like the word "get" and "got" in the English language.ConsRule » 15 Feb 2024, 2:10 pm » wrote: ↑ In theory, theory and practice are the same...in practice, they aren't.
Your assertion is nothing more than a liberal political talking point that has no proof behind it. Your just repeat it like a well trained monkey.
So you still have no examples to provide. History is just that.Monderegal » 15 Feb 2024, 2:16 pm » wrote: ↑ I have some reality for you. Try searching laissez faire economics in your search engine.
