What is a friend?

Just lately I have been having a debate with a friend of mine about the use of force.

Unfortunately he does not understand what I mean. 

Through no fault of his own, I believe the reason he does not understand can be attributed to his education - the fact that the things I am suggesting are not taught or even hinted at in the Government-run education system, and the only way to fix things is with a big STICK (or force)

The reason he does not understand is because I dont think he understand how these things can be a problem. 

These are not things that encourage government control or interference in our lives, so it is hardly likely that the government-run education system would teach you about them - If they did, we would recognise that we dont need big government, consequently doing themselves out of a purpose to exist.

If we were to take our lives back and become responsible for them again, instead of handing them to the government to do for us  we would have more of an understanding, but generations of Government and State dependancy have stripped us of not only our rights, but our personal responsibilities.


Ok folks - here's how my life works

I do not demand anything from my friends other than they like me for who I am or what I do.

I do not GANG UP on my friends with a big group of people, and then ask the Government to FORCE my friends to do things they dont wish to do.

I do not give the government my permission to arrest and make criminals out of my friends who like to smoke dope.
Do you do that?

I do not voluntarilly give my money to the government so they can RATION HEALTH CARE, and tell YOU when YOU are SICK ENOUGH to be treated in one of their hospitals.
I would much rather you go to hospital when YOU think you are sick enough.
This money is taken from me by FORCE under threat of fines and Jail if I do not comply.
Is that what friends do?

By ganging up and giving your permission to government to force me to pay for the RATIONED Government run HEALTH scheme, YOU are preventing me from purchasing health insurance for my family which would ensure they get the best health care available in the world when THEY want it (not when the government say they are sick enough)

I do not voluntarilly give my money to the government so they can tell You How and where YOUR children must be educated, and what they can and cannot learn. I think that should be YOUR choice.
I would rather you were able to chose a school, and what and how they teach your children, teaching things YOU want your children to learn as opposed to what the GOVERNMENT want them to learn.
This money is taken from me by FORCE under threat of fines and Jail if I do not comply.
Is that what friends do?

By ganging up and giving your permission to government to force me to pay for the RATIONED Government run EDUCATION system, YOU are preventing me from sending my children to a school that teaches subjects and values that I value, instead of a 1-size-fits-all scheme.
Is that what friends do?

I do not voluntarilly give money to the government to pay irresponsible people to have children they dont want or cant afford to look after.

I do not give money voluntarilly to the government to give to lowlifes who abuse and ill treat their children
This money is taken from me by FORCE under threat of fines and Jail if I do not comply.
By ganging up and giving your permission to government to force me to pay for these things this makes ME (against my will you understand) - and you also - part of the problem instead of part of the solution.

Also I do not GANG UP on my friends with a bigger group of people (like a bully), and then get the Council to FORCE them to do things they dont wish to do.
Do you do that?

Do you give your permission and encourage councillors to take money from YOUR FRIENDS to build art galleries, museums, sports complexes and entertainment venues etc etc, which can and already ARE provided free of compulsion and charge and responsibility by private companies.
By ganging up and giving your permission to Council to force me to pay for these things you are placing Debt and responsibilities on the heads of my children and Grandchildren.

Is that what friends do?

Do you give your permission and encourage council to put fluoride in the water supply and forcibly medicate my children.
I would never go to a friends house and use force on their children to make them take medication just because I thought it was for their own good. What makes it OK to get the council to do the dirty work for you?


I have very simple expectations of my friends - If only my friends had the same expectations of others.
