Rob, if @rollitup would let me post thread called, is Rob Roy an idiot? And put a poll on it, what do you think the result would be?

I don't expect humans to be perfect. Which is why I don't and won't have an imposed leader over me.
To use coercion as a systemic norm, which is what all involuntary governments do, and then expect anything good to come from it, is not brilliant.
Sorry that marketing works on people. Have you tried not being around people? Is everything you own from a company which doesn't advertise?
Where do you live, since you somehow live in a place without any leadership? How do they get internet? Or are you lying?
Florida isn't in here..i wonder why..ah! 2024.
Ending Benefits Early?
Here are the states that have declared an end to the extended unemployment benefits, and when they expire:
What You Can Do
Like other benefits cliffs over the past year, cutting expanded benefits prematurely leaves many unemployed workers vulnerable.
If you’re an unemployed worker in a state planning to end extended federal benefits in the coming weeks, remain in close contact with your local unemployment office for any updates and to continue receiving any benefits that you may still qualify for. These offices can also offer resources for job re-entry programs and training opportunities.
Remember, the programs set to expire Sept. 6 — if not cancelled sooner by your state — are just for the extended federal benefits set in place during the pandemic. You can still qualify for your state’s normal unemployment benefits if you lose your job or remain unemployed.
There are also still pandemic-related safety nets to help with financial hardship. The CDC’s latest guidance extends the eviction moratorium until at least June 30. After that you may still qualify for rental assistance depending on your state. A handful of states are still offering utility forgiveness, as well.
If you owe debts, contact your issuers and lenders about forbearance or assistance programs you may qualify for. Food assistance programs like SNAP and TANF can help supplement your spending on necessities. And if affordable childcare is an obstacle keeping you from returning to work, you may qualify for assistance or subsidized care through state and local initiatives.

Inaccurate or accurate.Rob, if @rollitup would let me post thread called is Rob Roy an idiot? And put a poll on it, what do you think the result would be?
It wouldn't matter how the polling went. You are a little causation / correlation deficient, maybe there's a vaccine for that ?

No, I stole everything I own. No wait, that's the government. Never mind.
that's why micro-donations from 'we the people' are indicative of who Americans want.
Bernie crushes that segment, though he doesn't seem to be very well liked around here.

False dichotomy though. Free people don't have others impose "leaders" (masters) over them.
You can chose a leader for yourself if you like.

Maybe he can use it to pay taxes on all of his houses? Or buy a big house like that BLM "leader" ?
it is in America.

It wasn't a deflection, it was sardonic humour (spelled for Canadians to enjoy) .
You realize where society would be with all this individualism and all the things you use and participate in which wouldn't have existed? Your continued use of them is hypocritical.
when you have a country with millions there has to be some sense of organization, Rob..i was always against the Bible but as i get older i realize it is necessary because there would be chaos otherwise. you may not agree with something but often can have value.

Should the organization protect and foment voluntary human interactions or should the organization offend voluntary human interactions ?
People have never been peaceful, but don't get me wrong, I don't hate your idea of a society that would essentially keep us at the no-mechanized-transportation and sustenance living forever, it's just that....that's not what this society ever was, nor will it ever be, plus you participate in it and that makes you complacent to the very things you complain about, so they can't be *that* important to you.

Some individuals are peaceful. Some are not.
Individuals who defend a system based in coercion are not defending "being peaceful".
People will never have a peaceful society as long as there is a coercion based system of governance. Logic and math insist that I am correct. Therefore if peace, which is different from imposed order, is a desired outcome or state of being, you should not defend a coercion based system.
You can't get to peace by using coercion.
If you're going to say that my general statement about people not being peaceful is false, by saying some are and some aren't, then surely you must see that anytime a violent person is harming another and is coerced into stopping, then you've acquired peace through coercion, making your statement false as well. If you're going to argue with nonsense angles, then at least button up your own statements a bit.
