No posters who are social conservatives as well as fiscal conservatives. I guess the mormons aren't big fans of poker?

English plz. What does 'only have their posession' mean?

Under AC everything is owned privately by someone and made into a commodity. Everything is private property, and everyone is concerned with owning it or paying for its use. Ergo, all ACist have is their possessions.

I'm pretty sure in AC you can still have friends, family, peace of mind, hopes, dreams, etc.

AC out to an early poster lead, I think the social/econ liberals will take it home though. The social conservatives seem to be lurkers to far. I guess I wouldn't want to step into the hailstorm either.

This is really a strange sample of the political world... how many people actaully know someone outside fo this forum who knows what AC is(they only count if you yourself didn't tell them)? I really thought this sort of never ending marriage to one political argument disappeared over 40 years ago...but its back, although, it seems benign this time.

I don't think this is true at all. There are many who might be classified as ACists who beleive in things like public property (though of course it is truly owned by the public and not the State).

ACist here will say "tragedy of the commons" and dismiss all public property.
