Two hundred years ago, we in the US were given the greatest opportunity mankind was ever given.
We were blessed with men I truly believe were inspired by the Great Architect, otherwise, they could not have come up with a document as they provided us.
Continually blessed, we began our own undoing.
Oh dear, I'm going to puke....
Leaving aside the blatant "US is great, fudge everyone else" ego massaging there, you do realise that the Bill of Rights and the Declaration of Independence were based off English and French ideas that came wayyyyy before you guys thunk it up, right? Of course you did....
Right, but the whole idea is that they used all of those ideas and created the best document they could. I'm not denying that they were borrowed from elsewhere.

That's not completely true. Under our current system today poor people are barred from owning businesses anyways-- so this system would allow for people to own their own business without government license-- even poor people could do it.
Poor people could create their own business.
Under government capitalism-- only people who have vested interest with the government can have a business.
Here-- poor people could form any business they want. And besides, I would like a moderate form of anarchy... perhaps a mix between both-- anarcho-capitalism and social anarchy.
Why are poor people barred from owning business? I wasn't aware that this was the case. In fact, here in the UK at least, anyone could start a business tomorrow. Wether you are poor or not does not come into wether you can start a business.
Well, poor people aren't exactly barred from owning a business per say... but I believe it's extremely hard for people to start a business.
Also, with the federal reserve-- we don't have a free market. And we won't until we get rid of it.
