Yes, well do not forget it that it was you who asked for this in the first place.

DON'T MAKE ME REGRET THIS...

...or else I'll post pictures of angry cats in frustration.

I had studying to do tonight and now it's bed time. I'll probably read your story and hopefully get back to you with any comments I have tommorrow.

Also, that face doesn't scare me now nearly as much as it did when I had the Gus avatar...

Yes, and you will get many more good puns if you would read my short story and give me the constructive criticism.

EDIT

Pretty please?

I would assuredly associate myself with this conjectural "Bacon and Eggs Party." Remonstrate Congress for the sake of free breakfast for all!

Oh, and Samurai Champloo.

"So no more peace and freedom? Just food?"

I might leave my spot at the Peace and Freedom party if there was a bacon and eggs party, but to my knowledge there isn't one. Still, peace and freedom are both pretty high on my to do list.

What are some arguments you can use against the "a society can be either anarchist or capitalist, but not both" argument?

The best argument is "there is no need to concern oneself over such matters". It's a pseudo-problem.

Reiterate anarcho-capitalist theory. If they disagree with you then it's because they disagree with their definition of anarchism. Then you can either just accept it as a "fine, whatever, I'm a statist" thing or you can argue about semantics, which is never very profitable and in this case it's totally not worth it. If my definition for communism was a system in which the majority of people are able to eat food, then yea, I'm a raging hard communist.

Okay, let me see if I can tone this down:

Let's turn down the vocab a skoch, and ask a normally phrased question.

What do you mean "what is the question here?"
