Lol. Don't worry, guys. The Free Market works. Market pressure will eventually cause this enormous scam, which entirely wipes people out, to be replaced by smaller scams that only partially destroy your finances. Capitalism!

lists "cut down environmentally protected trees," and, "dug two illegal wells" as some of the terrible offenses perpetrated by the scammer. "I can dig and cut whatever the gently caress I want on MAH LAND" is a basic tenet of libertarianism.

There's something really poetic about a libertarian "Going Galt" and then having to run crying back to the government when the inevitable conclusion happens and everyone gets screwed over. Let's get rid of the state, people are all rational actors, taxation is theft, blah, blah, blah.

Being libertarians, many of GGC’s investors were against the use of government courts to correct the injustices and receive the property they paid for. But what they found was that there simply was no other way to regain their stolen property without doing so.

“We tried to negotiate with Johnson for his exit from the project for well over 18 months,” reports Baker. “He just wouldn’t budge. Most of us don’t want to go the criminal court route, but we were left with no choice. To let Johnson, Del Real and company get away with this fraud would expose other victims in the future.”

Libertarians taken advantage of by an rear end in a top hat are surprised that said rear end in a top hat won't solve the problem in a Libertarian Manner. Amazing.

Libertarians aren't anarchists and generally think that enforcing contracts is one of the legitimate functions of the state.

That's what happens when you name your utopia after a guy who caused the fall of civilization so he could go "nyeh" and have a comfy spot away from rules while he watched the world burn, and didn't feel a bit of remorse because he saw the rest of humanity as inferior scum.

I like how the article refers to the scammer as the "mastermind". According to these guys, he was the smarter one, therefore the better one, and that means he deserves to have everything he stole, and the rest deserve to live in their cars.

How did you post this without his so-called explanation:

Mike Webb posted:

Curious by nature, I wanted to test the suggestion that somehow, lurking out in the pornographic world there is some evil operator waiting for the one in a gazillion chance that a candidate for federal office would go to that particular website and thereby be infected with a virus that would cause his or her FEC data file to crash the FECfile application each time that it was loaded on the day of the filing deadline, as well as impact other critical campaign systems. Well, the Geek Squad techs testified to me, after servicing thousands of computers at the Baileys Crossroads location that they had never seen any computer using their signature virus protection for the time period to acquire over 4800 viruses, 300 of which would require re-installation of the operating system. We are currently awaiting their attempt at recovery of files on that machine accidentally deleted when they failed to backup files before re-installation, a scenario about which Matthew Wavro speculated openly to me before we were informed by the Geek Squad that that had indeed occurred. Generally, the circumstances in which I have been involved in a life with over 30 years of leadership, I cannot just shoot from the hip, like reporters in this town who could not even get my campaign history straight, an incumbent who believed that 7000 Americans died because of global climate change, a nomination rival who assumed that a “conservative surge” was just going to magically appear in November like it did on Super Tuesday, had they not been Dump Trump Democrats in fact, or who now is being called silly by the incumbent for not doing his homework on Metro. I don’t just like being right wing, I also like being right.

But, now let me tell you the results of my empirical inquiry that introduced me to Layla and Ivone. Around Powerball lottery time, January 9, 2016, I calculated the odds that my friend Rev. Howard John Wesley and I working independently arrived at the same prayer plan, and I was able to determine that there was about a one in a billion chance that that could have occurred in the way that it did. (https://www.facebook.com/...). Well, as much as folks like Duffy Taylor want to hope that the Devil is waiting for Christian candidates on a particular pornographic website to infect his or her FEC data file is even more improbable than my Paul and Silas story, and I know that Duffy Taylor is not a man of faith belief; so, I don’t know how he empirically arrives at his conclusion. I couldn’t see the probability or possibility without a RAND computer.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present the winner of the 2016 Walter Duranty award for excellence in journalism:


2013:

quote:

When a country goes socialist and it craters, it is laughed off as a harmless and forgettable cautionary tale about the perils of command economics. When, by contrast, a country goes socialist and its economy does what Venezuela’s did, it is not perceived to be a laughing matter – and it is not so easy to write off or to ignore. It suddenly looks like a threat to the corporate capitalism, especially when said country has valuable oil resources that global powerhouses like the United States rely on.

Today:

quote:

The economic crisis in this country has exploded into a public health emergency, claiming the lives of untold numbers of Venezuelans. It is just part of a larger unraveling here that has become so severe it has prompted President Nicolás Maduro to impose a state of emergency and has raised fears of a government collapse.

Hospital wards have become crucibles where the forces tearing Venezuela apart have converged. Gloves and soap have vanished from some hospitals. Often, cancer medicines are found only on the black market. There is so little electricity that the government works only two days a week to save what energy is left.

At the University of the Andes Hospital in the mountain city of Mérida, there was not enough water to wash blood from the operating table. Doctors preparing for surgery cleaned their hands with bottles of seltzer water.

David Sirota, author of the Salon piece praising Venezuela's economic accomplishments, just shut his Facebook page down in a huff and swore he was leaving Twitter for a while.
