Guns are recreational devices. I'm considering picking up an assuault rifle when I the spare cash. Shooting stuff is like a cool version of golf.
Most people don't understand this, but I get quite upset with all the gun laws they're passing. I really, really, really am not a fan of pro-active government. European style enslavement is my biggest fear for the future of America, and unfortunatly we're slowly sliding that way.
If you want to break the middle-class barrier in Europe, it seems the best way is to get the hell out of the country.
Ever wonder why there isn't much of an upper-middle class in lots of these European countries? Or why shopkeeps love American military bases over there? Maybe because soldiers aren't subject to taxation that virtually destroys whatever disposable income they might have had?
Taxation enslaves, there's no doubt about it. A more interesting debate, however, is does social welfare also enslave the beneficiaries?
