    Im not sure how to properly quote here (pls educate me) but regarding this:

    “A viewpoint being closer or fartger from the median viewpoint in society has no bearing on its correctness or incorrectness.”

    This is inherrently correct. This of course applies to both the middle or the edges of the political and economic spectrum. I think what they and I are arguing is that the “median” tends to be more acceptable for a majority, which is sort of the point.

    I for one think that the state should own and exercise control over necessities or “key” industries as you describe them. But I also think it has no business sticking it’s ugly nose in the property I own. Sure - tax the shit out of me if I’m super rich, but that is it.
