Shouldn't the laws and rules allow for fair opportunities for all? If the laws overwhelmingly favour the rich and the government is primarily concerned with maintaining those laws then you have a tyrannical, unjust government. I sugges

The part about voluntarily giving up confessions reminds me of something similar during the Vietnam war. People would be grouped together and would need to "confess" the allures of capitalism. You could only graduate from the prog

A set is fixed but you have an infinite number of sets. We could imagine a (infinitely large) set that contains all primes. But how was that set constructed? To construct such a set an iterative process has to be continuously applied to the
