Okay. So I didn’t make the points about people preferring to be paid more over having better working conditions. Or pointing out that companies would hire fewer people if the minimum wage was increased.

Honestly dude, attempt to educate yourself or at least see other people perspectives. You come across like a massive dumbass if your response to serious discussion parallels your internal struggle between which Ke$ha album is the most truly legit madting.

Also, watching a video is far easier than reading a transcribed version of the arguments. Especially since you’re not averse to posting tl;dr to basically any argument that contradicts your world view.

I don't think anyone needs to see that.

Thankfully no or else I'd be terrified to visit Tumblr, Arkansas.

To be fair you do post a lot of videos that are just conservatives patting each other/themselves on the backs for not being as dumb as those danged liberals.

Because it’s easier to post a video than write the whole argument down. I guess that’s the issue with having a position what needs more than a few words explanations.

Especially when “taxation is theft” or “give me more freedom” probably wouldn’t wash as arguments.

And being a conservative is completely separate from Libertarianism. Of course you can be both, but I doubt you will find many Ben Shapiro types discussing the abolition of government. He’s about as statist as it gets.

It's a text-based forum dude, people are 95% more likely (source: Gallup) to see your point if you write it out instead of just plopping down a video.

Oh and I am aware that conservative=/=libertarian, you just happen to be both.

Which is why I pointed out predatory capitalism and Stockholm Syndrome. I'm not watching your long, dumbass video. I did all that **** a decade ago when I was a libertarian crank and I'm way over watching/listening to all that **** again just cause the newest crop of pundit suckers decide they want to get all high and mighty about how their position is logical because it's not touchy feely.
