“I don't remember what class I was in with this girl, but she was just going on and
on about raised minimum wage and socialized medicine and the entire time I was just
wondering where in the Bible Jesus said to go to your neighbor at gunpoint to take his
wages and to give it to someone else. I call it the "Gospel of Violent Jesus" . because this
is the Jesus Christ radicalized by both radical conservatives and progressives, in which
everything Jesus said is used to justify state sponsored violence and coercion, This
govermment tied gospel is used to advocate for socialized medicine, like what Republican
John Kasich tried to pull when he labeled himself a "compassionate conservative" and
said Medicaid expansion was biblical. The progressive left is hateful towards Christians
but yells and screams and brings up the Bible selectively to advocate for open borders
and socialized everything.”

“I don't see an enormous difference between a society in which you sell yourself to someone and a society in which you rent yourself to someone. I mean, they seem to me approximately equally inhuman. Well, we agree now, though we didn't 100 years ago, on the first - that slavery is wrong. But there's another thing, which in the old days used to be called wage slavery, which means that you rent yourself to somebody else in order to survive. It means that control over resources, and production, and investment is in the hands of a particular, and rather small group of people, and everyone else has the choice of either dying or renting themselves to them, more or less on their terms. And that seems to me a totally intolerable form of human life, you know. I mean, there's no reason to accept that any more than there was a reason to accept slavery, or feudalism, or whatever. How do you change that? Well, you try to change it through existing institutions. You probably fail. In which case you change the institutions, which are not graven in stone, you know. History hasn't come to an end.”
