Don't go on rumors or blindly believe the news its better to go in for some reliable source many good sources are available on internet for providing news, BBC always interests me as they gather some very nice news. People should be greatly vigilant in spreading the news because some issues are very sensitive. Uncensored News from Israel : Israeli News with a twist is a great source for Israel news many of such uncensored news stories could easily be gathered. Founding the best source from the better is considered to be the key so go in for the best option.

Yes it is intended to be ironic. A short E-book (pdf) on the conflict if you want more information. Sorry I know this is a little off topic, but it is something I consider important.

I've been thinking about writing an article on Substance Dualism and my Depression, based on my first hand experience and musing on the topic. What do people think of that idea ? Anybody interested in helping write it ? Or have any thoughts on things worth addressing ?

admin on What are the proper limits of government ?

I was thinking about this question the other day in light of the new president elect in the united states and I thought it might make an interesting topic of discussion in the forums if anybody felt to inclined. The question has also come up in a couple of email correspondences with people recently.

So what do you think are the governments proper limits ? Is there any area of life that the government should not intrude into ? What does it mean for the government to get involved in something ?

As many of you can probably already guess I am inclined towards a position of the governments only proper role being in defense and law enforcement, with strong property rights etc, and maybe in the providing of some essential infrastructure like roads and the like.

Another question related to that, is what is an appropriate means for the government raising funds to do these works ? Again, as you can guess I am inclined to think Income Taxes are a bad idea, and that governments ideally should be limited to consumption oriented taxes only.

What do others think ? Comments on this post are disabled, but there is a link over to a forum post for the topic.
