People who have fundamental beliefs based on maxims which do not, in general, change with the passage of time, will generally express opinions which are applicable and similar across a wide range of subject matter.

For example, I’ve mentioned “Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s property” to you. I hold this as a fundamental maxim and relate it to a number of things, including taxation and the evils of socialist thinking, i.e., When it comes to healthcare Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have no moral compass whatsoever. They refuse to make the distinction between CHARITABLE GIVING and tax tyranny to support the health care needs of millions of illegal entrants and foreign aliens.

I think “Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s property” is a silly maxim . . .

No surprise there considering your views concerning government taking of private property and its redistribution by the hand of government .

What’s the point in responding to you when you ignore most of what I write?

Have you changed your views concerning government taking of private property and its redistribution by the hand of government?

Nope. Have you changed your views on thinking a person dying from cancer who can’t afford treatment and covets the healthcare of another person with cancer who will live because they can get treatment as having no moral compass?

I didn’t think you changed your mind. You are fine with government taking private property and redistributing said property without just compensation as our constitution commands.

Nor do you embrace the constitutional protection forbidding any direct tax to be laid upon the citizens of the United States, unless it is an equal per capita tax, which our Constitution also commands.

As to the rest of your post, I never expressed my views concerning a dying person. I did express my views concerning an immoral practice by which to help the needy.

Try paying attention to what I actually have written.

Just to be clear, what does “capitalism” mean?

Just to be clear. The President did not say that white supremacists were “fine people.” But that didn’t stop your goofball news sources from making that lying claim.

Well, that is the impression I got from your own words. So, tell me, in respect to the constitutional command requiring just compensation, how would you fulfil the requirement when you take the property a working person earns by the sweat of their labor, which is then redistributed to another individual for their personal economic needs?

You are compensated by:

Getting the same help if you fall on hard times
In regards to universal healthcare, a healthier populace that is less likely to spread disease and get you sick
Less homeless people on the streets where you live
Less guilt that you should be doing more to help those less fortunate than you

My question was in respect to the constitutional command requiring “just compensation”.
Not your personal whims and fancies alleging “just compensation”.

just compensation

n. 1) in general a fair and reasonable amount of money to be paid for work performed or to make one “whole” after loss due to damages. 2) the full value to be paid for property taken by the government for public purposes guaranteed by Fifth Amendment to the U. S. Constitution, which states: “…nor shall private property be taken for public use without just compensation.” If the amount offered by the governmental agency taking the property is not considered sufficient, the property owner may demand a trial to determine just compensation. (See: quantum meruit, make one whole, condemnation, eminent domain, inverse condemnation)

JWK

“The property which every man has in his own labor, as it is the original foundation of all other property, so it is the most sacred and inviolable. The patrimony of the poor man lies in the strength and dexterity of his own hands; and to hinder him from employing this strength and dexterity in what manner he thinks proper, without injury to his neighbor, is a plain violation of this most sacred property.” ___ Butchers’ Union Co. v. Crescent City Co., 111 U.S. 746 (1884)

Well now, fallenturtle, is that your way to admit your personal feelings regarding the meaning of “just compensation”, as these words appear in our Constitution, are just that ___ your personal feelings of socialist justice, fairness and reasonableness, and not the legal meaning of “just compensation” when the force of government is used to take the property of your neighbor?

You often complain about taxes not being apportioned to the states on a per capita basis when the sixteenth very clearly did away with that. You base entire threads on it.
