Life and making a living have to be the same thing.
Oh little one, but they are not.
You can not live without making a living.
Sure you can. It takes a lot of skill and a ton of dumb luck, but you don't
have to earn a dime to live.
There is no possible way in the United states to do that.
Ummm.....but there is my ignorant adversary.
In other words, by what you say, there is
NO way to live without making a living,
Sure there is.
unless you are homeless and require charity to live.
Well, that's one way. But for thousands of millions of years, people lived
without any monetary exchange of goods for labor.
Oh, they had to labor to live - but they didn't sell their labor, or need to
for life.
That was not what the founding fathers ever, EVER wanted.
Then they would have said so.
You tell me how you can possibly live without money?
People did so for years. Some still do.
There is no way to do it in the modern society.
Sure there is. That you don't want to is another matter entirely.
Paul said:
Yet he fills legislation with pork barrel projects for his district -
spending taxpayers money needlessly - which causes taxes to be raised.
----
That is an interesting assumption.
It's a fact.
Care to back it up with a single fact?
Yup. Meet the Press - December 26th, just a few nights ago. Chris asked -
he confirmed.
I'm quite sure you can find it on video someplace.
Name one 'Pork Barrel Project' he has voted for.
I very much doubt you will find a single one.
Watch the videos:

Here's a text snippett:
Tim Russert
This is the Houston Chronicle: "Representative Ron Paul has long crusaded
against a big central government. But he also" "represented a congressional
district that's consistently among the top in Texas in its reliance on
dollars from Washington. In the first nine months of the federal
government's" fiscal "2006 fiscal year," "it received more than $4 billion."
And they report, The Wall Street Journal, 65 earmark-targeted projects, $400
million that you have put into congressional bills for your district, which
leads us to the Congressional Quarterly. "The Earmark Dossier of `Dr. No.'
There isn't much that" Ron--Dr. "Ron Paul thinks the federal government
should do. Apparently, though, earmarks" for his district "are OK. Paul is
the sponsor of no fewer than 10 earmarks in the water resources bill," all
benefiting his district. The Gulf Intercoastal Waterway: $32 million. The
sunken ship you want to be moved from Freeport Harbor. The Bayou Navigation
Channel. They talk about $8 million for shrimp fishermen.
REP. PAUL: You got it completely wrong. I've never voted for an earmark in
my life.
MR. RUSSERT: No, but you put them in the bill.
REP. PAUL: I put it in because I represent people who are asking for some
of their money back. But it doesn't cut any spending to vote against an
earmark. And the Congress has the responsibility to spend the money. Why
leave the money in the executive branch and let them spend the money?
HE ~~~~~~IS~~~~~~CONGRESS<<<<<<<<<<
MR. RUSSERT: Well, that's like, that's like saying you voted for it before
you voted against it.
REP. PAUL: Nah! Come on, Tim. That has nothing to do with that.
MR. RUSSERT: If, if, if you put it in the bill and get the headline back
home...
REP. PAUL: No, I, I make the request. They're not in the bills.
MR. RUSSERT: ...and then you, then you know it's going to pass Congress and
so you, you don't refuse the money.
REP. PAUL: Well, no, of course not. It's like taking a tax credit. If you
have a tax credit, I'm against the taxes but I take all my tax credits. I
want to get...
MR. RUSSERT: But if you were true...
REP. PAUL: ...the money back for the people.
MR. RUSSERT: If you were true to your philosophy, you would say no pork
spending in my district.
REP. PAUL: No, no, that's not it. They steal our money, that's like saying
that people shouldn't take Social Security money.
"They steal our money" LMAO
HE IS THE ONE THAT MAKES TAX LAW.
HE ~~~~~IS~~~~~~ "THEY"
He even voted against a budget to provide Mother Theresa a medal for her
fine work. Because the Constitution does not provide for tax dollars to be
used to reward anyone.
Does it prohibit it?
The Constitution is more about what is prohibited. If it's silent, then
it's allowed.
The Constitution is silent on driving - and flying - and the internet.
Are they allowed under the Constitution - or should they be baned because
they aren't provided for in the Constitution?
