    “Western Democracy” has become a weapon just like the dollar. The only objective of this “democratic” propaganda is to subject the countries of the South to the imperial agenda.

    The West has grown by exploiting and enslaving the peoples of the world. It seems that this time is coming to an end.

    Sad to watch the shame on this brainwashed as alleged fellow citizen, who unlikely ever does groceries on his own pocket (public servant, enjoying wages not even 30% of population will ever see...) or, if he really does any supermarket,surely can't do proper prices (or does not care when his wages are way higher than worth for our lousy public services... - meanwhile the leftists in this country are filling up their pockets, even getting back money they confessed to have stolen from tax payers/public companies... - slowly (thanks god) Brazil is following same steps of neighboring Venezuela “democracy” (where people cannot find toilet paper to clean up themselves) who also fights “imperialism” - why dont you guys migrate to live there or in Cuba, for starters? Certainly they “study” in Europe, or even in the US.... And yes, those are who have always last iPhone model updated!

    @ no time for you

    Mr. No Time For You, I regret to inform you that I have declined your offers of immigration. Especially since the irrationality of your questions about my personal life makes no sense whatsoever.

    As an argument, I could suggest that you emigrate to Haiti, if you have not already done so. In Haiti, you would find the most libertarian country in the Americas. Where the State is just a figure of speech. Where freedom reigns in all aspects of human life.

    But I will not suggest that you go live in Haiti, because I am Catholic and I do not wish ill on anyone. Although I think that every Libertarian should go through this experience.

    “Especially since the irrationality of your questions about my personal life makes no sense whatsoever.”

    Indeed, we never see ourselves as others see us...
