If you are a Libertarian and hold liberty as your core value, why do you not believe in universal healthcare? Nothing impacts liberty more than sickness and death.

This is all besides the point. Libertarianism is values free Capitalism, and NAP is a pipedream.

Capitalism usurps all values other than profit. It's toxic.

Is libertarianism synonymous with capitalism?

What values are devoid of profiting?

If say, a socialist argued that the average Russian in 1960 was better off than in 1880, and while technology played a positive role, so did the political system, then wt:thon would be arguing that socialism—at least that variant—has profited the average Russian more than monarchy—at least that variant.

and please answer the questions in my previous post, regardless on how it's probable that neither of us have enough information and knowledge to answer something so hypothetical, with a great amount of authority.

I'm not here for you. I was here for the original topic.

Very well. I'll answer them.

They aren't the same;

80 years after, the average Russian probably profited more;

and an armed population would probably be bad for gangsters and the cartels, and perhaps the rich and powerful.

Please go have this conversation with yourself somewhere else so that I don't get the notifications.

Why are you getting notifications? You aren't the OP.

Because you're replying to me dumb ass, not go ask yourself question to answer yourself elsewhere. I don't need the clutter.

I was replying to u/masquenox.

Besides, I think it's over or almost over.

No, you're just very confused. Have been ever since you started asking and answering yourself in this thread. Please stop.

Maybe if I block you the notifications will stop.
