Walmart Must Ask Someone First

More comments from me in response to the current conversation taking place in the Myspace groupWalmart is the Devil. So far no one has responded to my previous comment in the forum, maybe this one will stir the pudding a little bit.

I agree that Walmart and Sams Club stores are large and zoo like, and I attempt to avoid them as much a possible for those reasons.

But I have a few questions for those who feel the same. Do we not live in a free country anymore? Can a business not purchase land and construct a building in which to sell goods to the local residents of the community in the free market without asking someone first?

Of-course they must ask someone first. Walmart, or Sams Club must ask the person or persons who they wish to purchase the land from (except in cases of local city councils abusing eminent domain) if that person or persons will sell them the land. Then they must ask or attempt to persuade the various individuals of the community to purchase items from their new store in order for them to stay in business. All of these various actions are voluntary on the part of all parties.

No ones natural rights to life, liberty, or the pursuit of happiness is being infringed upon by any of these aforementioned actions (once again, except in cases of eminent domain abuse on the part of local governments).

So I ask the members of this group, where is the tort? What has Walmart done to you that is worse than such programs as social security, which takes 14 percent of your income and gives it to someone else. When did you consent to this action? If you did not consent, which pretty much covers all of us, then that means this income redistribution program fell upon you by the use of deadly force.

What do I mean by Deadly Force? See what happens if you stop paying your taxes for a while. Eventually the IRS will contact you about the taxes you owe them. If you refuse to cooperate with them, a court date will be set to determine what to do about you not having paid your taxes. If you refuse to show up for court, eventually the guns will come out. Men with guns will come to your home to take away your liberty and pursuit of happiness.

That is called deadly force my friends.

Why can the government do all this without asking someone first? They did not ask me and they did not ask anyone else that I know if they could confiscate 14 cents of every dollar you and I earn to give to someone else.
