Heres a comparison of Hong Kongs economic freedom

Heres a comparison of Singapores economic freedom
http://www.heritage.org/research/features/index/country.cfm?id=Singapore

and finally the US
http://www.heritage.org/research/features/index/country.cfm?id=Unitedstates

Both of them have higher 'freedom from the government' and lower tax rates. I would say their public is better off for it.




bleh, i'll let Schem take this one

Hah, I like this site.

Its more Republican swayed though, I am starting to read their book too.

Looks like my theory of how Democrats as a whole make one idiot, is starting to have some backing.

Sometimes anarchism lays the best grounds for political reform.

no, no it doesnt. anarchism has never lead to any good reform.
You should talk, your the one who thought behavioralism was a Freudian theory.

you obviously missed the point of what I was saying.
What I found great is that it helped the common man, or at least was supposed to

what you found is a myth, it can not and will not function.

and let me quote
"Hong Kong's economy is 89.3 percent free"
assigning a quantitative analysis to an inherently qualitative facet. that already is a really, well, alarming way of looking at things. I'll tear that thing appart when I have time for it.

This country stands upon the basic fundemental value of anarchism, revolution. Sure it was a more moderate form, but that is why I chose to label myself a 'you'anist instead of any 'real' political terms.

I know

AMERICAN newspaper on a thread where you are ATTACKING AMERICAN MEDIA.


I attack big media for its constant control over prices and its oligopoly, plus the fact that it only prints part of the truth. But this site is a composite of international research. And I wont forsake true research just because the source that funds it is something I am against, thats pure idiocracy.

revolution is not anarchism. you need to have that straightened out.
revolution is the act of tearing something down to place something else up, anarchism is tearing something down to leave nothing
plus the fact that it only prints part of the truth


COUGH

But this site is a composite of international research

only makes it less reliable.

true research? they are placing numbers to a qualitative analysis. thats a pathetic way to "research".

They had people working on this that have international creadibility. Sure its not one hundred precent viable data, but they did do a very good job. And I find it a more reliable source, than say the Wiki

No, you still usually have a period of anarchy, or war. Here that didnt happen to a huge extent.

Oh, yes I forgot the rest of the world is full of idiots. Silly me...

because we werent preoccupied with tearing down the bad so much as putting up the good.
Hong Kong scores exceptionally well in almost all areas of economic freedom. Income and corporate tax rates are extremely low, and overall taxation is relatively small as a percentage of GDP. Business regulation is simple, and the labor market is highly flexible. Inflation is low, although the government distorts the prices of several staples. Investment in Hong Kong is wide open, with virtually no restrictions on foreign capital. The island is also one of the world's leading financial centers, with an extensive banking and services industry that is regulated non-intrusively and transparent. The judiciary, independent of politics and virtually free of corruption, has an exemplary ability to protect property rights.

everything you hate, well, excluding the corruption.
this supports my point you know.
anyhow, the only thing I'm surprised by is the australia thingy. that was a bit of a broadside.

what was your point in putting this up there anyway. it only makes my arguement...

How does it necessarily make it something I hate.

I like freedom


I was trying to prove to you that there are nations out there that are economically free-er and stroger than this one. Plus, where do you subsidies, from what I heard you said that Hong Kong is mostly subsidized.

That proves my point, not yours
