Other than "third way" ass-kissing of Wall Street, I don't think classical liberalism has recently been part of the DNC platform. Sure, there's abortion rights and gay rights, but that's leaving out a big chunk of it.
WVU didn't know what classical liberalism is. There's no need to defend his lack of knowledge. Hopefully he reads the link I posted, and follows up on some of the references as well.
What? This is all the rules you want governing all people? Seven of those are in direct conflict with the principles of classical liberalism.
1. Violates religious freedom and tolerance.
2. Violates religious freedom and tolerance.
3. Violates religious freedom and tolerance.
4. Violates religious freedom and tolerance.
5. Violates personal freedom. Hey, if your parents are pieces of shit, why should you honor them? Every day we see parents who do not deserve honor, that abuse children. Fvck them.
7. Violates personal freedom and individualism. Adultery ain't cool, but it ain't the government's business, or mine. And hell, some people actually dig it....whatever floats your boat, as long as all parties consent.
10. Violates individual freedom. Covet all you wish, just don't steal what you covet. You got a Buick Regal GNX? I'll cover the shit out of it....but I am not going to steal it. Hell, maybe I will be motivated to work harder and get my own!
Now, I fully recognize YOUR RIGHT to live by those ten. But if I want to worship a Lego model of the Millennium Falcon, that's my business.
