Makes me wonder if Lindsay has ever played video games. "On the rails" is not a compliment. It's also worth asking, is someone ruled by a king but taxed a maximum of 10% of his income with a minimum of regulation inhibiting his ability to run a business more or less free than someone in a democracy taxed 50% of his income who can only access the services provided by the state as bureaucrats see fit to ration them? I'd love to see a democracy in our day and age that could provide the former without a king, but give me a modern example that isn't a city state. I don't want kings or aristocracy, although we realistically have them in democracies too, just by a different name. But I also will insist that talking about how to get to that greater freedom shouldn't be policed via smears and misrepresentation.

I bet nobody remembers who this is?
