Region: Libertatem
Hello everyone.
Hello Arlton,
You can call me Time. I am the Radicalistic Horse Loving Nationalistic and Non-Interventionist Libertarian.

I suppose the French are just jealous that Britain doesn't have leaders that have turned the country into a stagnant, inflationary quagmire.
They desperately need a Thatcher or a Reagan. France is one of the few post-recession economies running at a growth rate of 0% and an unemployment rate of 10%.
I say, let them burn. I honestly could care less if all of Europe mysteriously no longer existed, but France is just a burden on a global level.
Motion to log Board votes passes 3-0-2.
Time to start a log.

Yeah Pev?
I saw you say "Yeah Silver" ._. Obsessed
No I'm not...
I'm starting to think that your'e an isolationist.
Great job Minerva! :)
I laughed way too hard at the "thrift shop" parody.
Does anybody here like NWA?
The rap group? Yes! haha
I love 'em. Whatever one thinks about the lyrical content, they record some great songs.
Not necessarily an isolationist. A private global economy is fine. But on a public level, why is the rest of the world's issues our problem?
By far one of the most vulgar and all around illiterate groups to go mainstream, that being said, Straight out of Compton still gets me jacked
that is literally one of the most horrific comments i have had the displeasure of reading on this website. I hope beyond anything else that this was some kind of sick joke or poorly laid out sarcastic comment
If he's justifying this with overpopulation...

worried about over population?

Wouldn't we be colonizing space long before overpopulation becomes a problem?
Not so much overpopulation in general but more so the population and current issues if food and water distribution and disease within Africa itself.
They need more stability and distribution of food and water but there are just too many Africans to have a good standard of living. The less Africans the better the other standard of living (within a reasonable minimum and maximum range.
Maybe we're already part of a much larger alien empire?
i hate it when people say libertatem is a hypocrite for condeming that north korea region. theres absolutely no hypocrisy.
I've hear of a theory saying that we are not originally from Earth for some weird reasons, like how human babies heads are way too disproportionately large to evolve on a planet with gravity like earth and how we are wired for a 26ish hour active day.
I don't believe it, but its weird to see what some people come up with.
So the obvious answer is to pray that a vicious disease mercilessly murders men, women, and children. Good on you. You're a thinker.
Well of course.
There are four main things that keep population in check.
1) Suicide and Murder
2) Wars
3) Disease
4) Starvation

So in other words, your idea of helping a hungry horse is shooting it in the head.
You sir, indeed do suck.
No. It's feed it. However if I have 20 horses but only have enough to feed 10...wait I like horses...this is rather unfair...
But going along with it. If I have 20 but can only acceptably feed 10. I have to get rid of the other 10 by putting them down or moving them to someone who can feed them.

Ya tried to make it better. You didn't. But, you tried.
You gotta be tough in a situation like that. Screw emotions and go with efficiency.
It would be more efficient to simply improve distribution than to hope for (or actively cause) a population decrease.
Uh-huh. If there's too big of a population the distribution ain't gonna work.
Just need to get more things to distribute.
Like, say, GMOs.
You can improve a lot of lives by using more GMOs.
I mean, really, you can't solve everything, but you can at the very least try to counteract the fact that Africa is generally a very bad place to try agriculture.
Get people fed properly with good plants that are specifically made to grow down there, and then boom. One problem solved, the other ones become slightly easier. Some even become possible to solve at that point.
Of course, you still have a problem with getting good water to places, but it's nothing that can't be solved.

Should humans really have to pay for water? Like really. Why is it that we have actually convinced ourselves to buy bottled water. Why should we have to purchase water?
If you wish to say it's paying for the purification of the water then why can't we just buy those tap purify things they sell to get our own water from tap. Why is it we've lowered ourselves to buying bottled water when we can get our own purified water from tap?
I mean this investment is a one time purchase compared to...a bunch of purchases of bottled water.
Don't like it? Don't buy it.
I just drink sink water myself..
Fun fact: 100% pure water is actually significantly less healthy than water with dissolved solids, since pure dihydrogen monoxide will try to attract pretty much everything and also some of those dissolved solids are nutritious or something.
That's bad news for when there's a lot of it inside you. Fortunately, there's basically no pure water in the human body.
And also I'm pretty sure you can't find totally pure water anywhere in nature, since it's basically always going to be interacting with something else as soon as it's formed.
Oh, and someone thought it'd be a good idea to submit a Repeal Condemn North Korea when there's clearly already a proposal that does that.
"North Korea shouldn't be condemned. For nationstates to grow, we must have regions like this. There is good and evil in everything. North Korea has a right to do whatever they want in their region along with everybody else. Some may have radical views, some may have hippie views,
Isn't North Korea a dictatorship? They should do as they please. Like I said in the previous paragraph, it's their region. If North Korea wants to raid a region, they should do as they please. Nobody can be unfairly raided. If you are raided, you are raided. In the rules, it clearly states that you can raid any region. It may be "unfair", but you just got to suck it up and move on.
North Korea shouldn't be condemned."
I know this isn't where you're supposed to talk about illegal WA proposals, but I just have to share them sometimes because sometimes they're funny.
Following his purchase of a large plot of land in the middle of The Liberty State City, Samuel Dada, the heir to a fortune made on the back of the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, has begun his conversion of the property into a vast and unusual mansion. Busybodies are in an uproar at the design, however, which they claim is everything from "out of social context" and "bizarre" to "just plain ugly".
I should become a door to door salesman...
Door to door insurance sales?
Must be a lucrative industry.
Yes! Everyone should let me eat small helpless nations because that is what I like to do!
Also, fun fact: Repeal Condemn North Korea is very likely to fail, but just barely.
O Goddammit I pulled a Commie Idea out of my head...and I like the idea.
Nothing in life is free. Pipes have to be replaced,Water needs to be cleaned. Workers need to be payed, etc.
Why pay for bottled water though when it is so much better to just issue the taps. I mean I think that people are just being screwed over by these larger corporations. I mean if the government issued these taps to everyone it would save people's money so much. As for taxes it's not like you'd need more than one or two rounds of higher taxes and then everyone has one and is saving money.
If you want water to be free tta then let's shut down sewage filtration plants and you can go down to the river everyday and collect river water. As long as the filtration is on their will be costs.
Yeeeeup.
No one forces you to buy bottled water it's a choice.
Companies can't force you to buy anything. Only the government does that.
No no, I mean the government should handle those or volunteer workers should handle them.
They are screwing us over with a bunch of crap. it'd be better if the government just steps in...
Time Alliance: The Freedom Loving Capitalistic Bottled Water Communist.
If you're not into bottled water, and you're in a developed country, odds are you already have running water at home that you can drink instead.
No need for the gub'mint to get involved and go "Hurr, here's free tap water except now your taxes are significantly higher because we just abolished bottled water and also new pipelines and those are expensive".
Besides the fact that you can literally buy one bottle then refill it pretty much forever. Just clean it out well and you're good.
And the whole higher initial investment for savings later on is pretty much the same argument for solar energy, and I think it works out the same way in that it doesn't.
Ooh! Commie fill-in-the-blank time!
Corporations are screwing us over in _____, therefore the government should intervene.
Um who would volunteer when they have themselves or families to feed. No companies only meet a demand. If no one bought the water there would be no bottled water companies. People choose what they buy when they are not forced to buy products or services by the government.
As we have seen from the past government would make things worse. It takes money to turn oil into plastic. Companies meet demand.
In his novel (hold your laughter please) The Overton Window, Glenn Beck actually tells a hilarious anecdote regarding bottled water.
TTA takes a basic high school economics class.
Take*
Easy-e> dr. Dre just saying.
An anarchist walks into a bar. Immediately all hell breaks loose: the bartender begins to add poison to the drinks he serves; the customers all pull out weapons and initiate a tremendous gunfight in which each man tries to kill every other; the roof begins to collapse; and a huge bolt of lightening strikes through the opening in the roof and sets everything aflame.
At that point a statist enters the bar, surveys the scene and, with a sh*t-eating grin on his face, says: "I told you so!"
without social media my life would be so less insightful
When you turn on the sink in my town there is a fifty-fifty shot the water will be a lovely shade of brown. I will stick to buying water.
I love you lack.
....... but you live in the south and there is supposed to be small government there. You are encouraging tta to be leftist.
Who enjoyed their debt shopping?

Brings the articles of impeachment and smiles at barry.
Really CFN a Mormon people's party.
*smiles back* I'm black.
Wait what? What?
That's why you get the free tap from the government. I mean I'm a southerner and I absolutely abhor the Current American Government. (I want 4 Countries; USA, CSA, Texas and Deseret), but still this is an interesting thing to look into, why must we pay to get basic needs? And why are we paying to get these basic needs while our GOVERNMENT GIVES THEM OUT FREELY TO OTHER NATIONS IN AFRICA!
I can't...sign up...till next..year...But it'll just be some Leftist Rhetoric anyways, which I'm not going to buy into.
Yep. It's actually fairly Libertarian.
In the sense Non-Mormons are pretty free to do whatever.
Our you can buy a water bottle and then get the free tap from the Government. Otherwise you have to buy the water bottle and buy the tap.
You just described my life.

It's freer...for me at least. I mean maybe not for another...
Um its the 50 50 shot that the tsp water from the government monopoly in brown. Thats government efficiency for you!
I meant the free tap Purifier...
When I say Tap it means Purifier unless the word Water follows it.
Nothings free tta.

Anyways. I dislike the Water thought I have had and am going to go to bed. But seriously? A Company controlling water? Completely idiotic.
I can dream! ^__^
