The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

More about land value then taxes.

This is why we should tax land and not income. You can’t take land with you

California has the greatest amount of GDP devoted to welfare, but New York tends to have the most socialist leanings.

Yes. I have to find a place because I got about $ 800 dollars on me. No Republican would answer me because they are vile, greedy capitalists.


Well, surely not all of them are vile or greedy. They just enjoy the freedom of the market.

If that's all you have you are going to be royally screwed in either of those states...the cost of living is astronomical in both states, at least in the areas you are undoubtedly thinking of.
