Ferrari Mailing List: Re: The car club massacre in 3 parts (Little to noFerrari Content)

[Charles Perry (charles]

Equality of opportunity is all this country has ever promised. Equality of individual people is neither possible nor desirable, which I think is what Paul meant.

 

Remember, the Founding Fathers originally gave the vote only to landowners, the theory being that if you hadn't earned something to protect, you shouldn't have a hand in the process of government. Having eliminated that provision, we now have an ever increasing class of people who do nothing more than vote as a way to earn their living, and the resultant burden on productive members of society will eventually kill this country if allowed to continue.

 

Whether you're liberal or conservative the truth holds: "The trouble with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people’s money." - Margaret Thatcher.

Interesting premise - 'equality' is bad.  Are we buying slaves in this country again?  Let's get rid of 'majority-rules' Democracy and replace it with....Feudalism?  Monarchy?

 

While we're bashing France, lets show them how much we hate them by sending back the Statue of Liberty.  We obviously don't need it anymore.

Equality has nothing to do with money.   Jeff isn't allowed behaviour or rights of which 'they' disapprove.  Just like smoking is an equality issue and abortion and home schooling are an equality issue or putting a cross on a hill is an equality issue.  France fought their revolution for equality whereas we fought for freedom.  Go to France and try to be different, it don't work.  Equality means 'they' decide, not you.  Think of equality as the opposite of freedom, which is where 'you' decide.   Big government is 'they' and it comes in all sizes, from neighborhood to federal.  'They' are already trying to ban supercars and in California diesel trucks are part of the past. Coming soon near you...

This has nothing to do with 'equality' - the folks in Jeff's neighborhood are hardly poor.

Little by little we are loosing out freedoms to equality.  Those with less demand that everyone with more come down to their level rather than use the freedom they have to elevate themselves.   Welcome to France.
