Rahm Emmanuel's request that TD Bank stop doing busines with Smith & Wesson is something that should concern us all as citizens in the West.
If this is not fascism whereby the government is infusing itself between two private companies, I don't know what is.
Already, we hear outlandish claims in defense of this interventionism on the grounds that TD are "banksters" and Smith & Wesson are "murderers." Idiotic logical fallacies.
This is the rationalism that's supporting and driving gun-control policy?
Both are legal entities. Both entered a legal contract to do business with one another. Neither is breaking any laws. Both provide services people want. If they don't want to do business with one another, then that's their choice - AND ONLY THEIR - choice to make.
The government can interfere in ANY product if it so chooses. Just find the right tragedy to exploit and presto!
Honestly, both companies should flip the bird to the Constitutional abusers and flunkies in the Obama administration.
This is nothing but ignorant mob thuggery at work. Hey, no big deal Smith & Wesson has deep roots in American business and law enforcement. So what! They make guns and guns are evil!
I could go on and on. This whole debate and comments about it cuts right through what's become of our natural rights as citizens.
But that's for another time. Presenting an argument about how the welfare state enslaves us is one that demands much thought.
