The only problem I see with this is that our society is (unfortunately)
not "wired" for this kind of attitude towards holding people accountable
for consequences of their own actions.

Society is not "wired"?

Was a bit quicker than typing the fact that socialist "do-gooders"
utilize the power of the state to implement "feel-good" solutions for
perceived problems under the guise of "charity". Unfortunately, it's other
peoples' money they use for that "charity".

As a strict constructionist,

I've read hundreds of your posts, and like this one you demonstrate
that you are the opposite of a strict constructionist. I suppose it is
a label and a word that has had its meaning reversed like "left" and
"right." Today's right wingers have more in common with marxism than
anything else although it remains politically incorrect as a label.


Suggest you look up and truly digest the meanings of the words,
"capitalism, totalitarianism, and marxism". Then study some historical
context: study the history of the October revolution, the expropriation of
private property, the gulags, the WWII era, and the various actions of
those marxist totalitarian states. Then spend some time reading and
understanding the events that transpired on 9/11, the various teachings of
the Taliban, Al Queda, and Iran's little re-incarnation of a certain German
dictator. After you have educated yourself on the historical context of
the various phrases you throw around with abandon in your post above, get
back with us here and we can have a meaningful discussion. Until that
point, any further conversation would be useless as you seem to want to
throw out terms as invectives, giving those words whatever meaning you
intend them to have.

.... snip of more meaningless yapping.
