"freedom is only ethical if everyone is charitable"

That statement is utterly meaningless. To say that freedom is only ethical if everyone is charitable is to enslave everyone to charity.

"And tell me again exactly what relevance the differences between Venstre and SD has with respect to your claim Danes "have a much more difficult time on agreeing on on things"?"

They have several disagreements on things.

"Not at all, still waiting on relevant evidence to your claim beyond trying to tout the fact there hasn't been an absolute majority in the Folketing in 30ish years."

I believe I'm appropriately supported this point, my justifications being that they have more parties than the US that don't agree on things, and by pointing out that they disagree much more on topics than the parties in the US do.
Now that I've done that, can you post some sort of counter-argument?

Oh my god, not charity. Anything but charity.

I'd much rather be enslaved to wealth.

^def. think you missed my entire point

You're making some retarded semantic argument, I get it.

^please explain how my statement was retarded and semantic.

My point is people make emotional claims all the time that they think are true but carry no meaning in real life. To say "freedom is only ethical if everyone is charitable" sounds great but it doesn't mean anything.

Just out of curiosity, are you lumping Cary in with "the gun owning, bible slinging, confederate flag flying south"?

"Data from the 2000 Census shows 29.2% of Cary residents are native to North Carolina. 55.2% were born in other states. Additionally, 15.6% of the town population were born outside the United States."

Special treatment and handouts create a level playing field?

"Yes the same southern baptists whose preachers assembled (not THAT long ago) to produce the kkk and terrorize the civil rights movement with the help of law enforcement. Guess where some of the preachers who were young men and law enforcement agents from the 60s end up when they get old? I'll give you a hint. The former kkk members in the south didn't vote for Obama. There also happens to be a large number of people down here who publicly want Obama dead but he was elected so they surely are the minority and there surely would be small opposition to socialism without them."

Not counting the progressive senators who endorsed a black president in 2008?

Seeing that people aren't naturally charitable, are you arguing the freedom is not ethical?
