The people I like least

[Fake Boris]

What makes you think markets don't involve lots of planning?

Of course if you define them as everything people do they involve everything.

[Dr Strangelove]

KH hangs out with welfare recipients, because they tend to not be smart and talented.

Well... at his job, he spends all day with an organization that benefits much more from a friendly tax policy than the rest of America.

... in an industry where money is "made" without doing any work

sounds like the epitome of being a welfare queen to me

KH is a misanthrope. He dislikes everyone equally.

He works for a union?

[The Mad Monk]

...as anyone of sufficient intelligence eventually will.

It was not taught in my high school classes. .

And of course Canada's well-known dearth of literature in English prevented you from finding this out on your own while at school. Ho hum....

What, the Communist party of the United States?

Please point out where the CP USA forced Jews to live in ghettos, wear distinctive clothing, forbade them from engaging in certain trades, owning property, working on a Sunday et cetera. The Roman Catholic Church did all of those and more, as you well know- or should.

I believe I posted one here.

Ah. The Great Apolyton Mass Coma Crisis of 2005.

I'm sure you'd be extolling the paper as I was a fellow traveller at the time.

A fellow traveller in what exactly ? The Erroneous Assumption Party ? The notion of me extolling a history paper of yours is quite funny though- I'd extol its brevity and accuracy if perhaps you left it blank.

If rights belong to the government, then the government can take them away.

Who said rights belong to a government ? Not me. Governments can and do take rights away- as they did in South Africa and in the United Kingdom.

Natural rights argue that people have god-Given rights that the state cannot take away.

Yawn. I know the natural rights arguments, and natural rights are only one step away from what James I & VI liked to assert- that the king dispensed rights to his subjects by virtue of his supposed divine right to rule. Since I don't believe in the supernatural, I don't believe in things that rely upon supernatural agencies for their existence or origin.

It was done in the Soviet Union and in Germany too.

You forgot South Africa- where black South Africans were forbidden even training in how to use firearms. How convenient you didn't mention that.

In that they were Jewish Communists? Absolutely.

The usual tosspot reply. The tradition of communal living and holding goods in common goes back through the Acts of the Apostles to the Essenes and probably even further. I rather like one writer's description of Communism as simply another Jewish heresy, like Christianity....

And yet, the Russian Jews themselves chose to flee to Israel.

And yet Soviet Russia created Birobidzhan, a Jewish homeland.

Yeah, on Apolyton folks like Mandela are saints whereas Mother Theresa is not

And to Roman Catholics, people like Simon of Trento were 'saints' up until the 1960s.

For those of you unaware of who this charming folkloric figure was, here's a helpful link :

and here's a fruit loop link :

*The court officially stated:
The Hebrews killed the little boy Simon, in order to obey a rabbinical religious law; their motive being to serve a most wicked piety and devotion by obtaining Christian blood for the celebration of Passover.

Yes, it's our old friend, the frankly ludicrous blood libel.

He works for a union?

Union Bancaire Privee, peut-etre ?

[arsenalphan]

I can't think of any people who meet all three off the top of my head.

[dannubis]

Don't worry. He hates you too....

[TCO]

Do you have to be all 3, or just any of the them? I am first two.
