Care to explain which of those "most laws" exist to extort money? It's common to hear this sentiment parroted around, but never does it come with anything backing it up. Until that point, people like me have to assume that sentiments such as that are purely self-serving.
Worse, this kind of sentiment is undemocratic. The sheeple pass the laws, and the few Nietzschean supermen with the guts (and money) to do it disregard them, to prove they're wrong.
Not sure if you are being sarcastic or not. I thought democracy == people rules, but it seems like you are suggesting we discard "sheeple"'s opinion and follow the lead of a few "supermen with guts and money".
Not sure who's being undemocratic here.
Also, whenever someone uses the word "sheeple" in their argument they lose all credibilities in my eyes.
The second sentence is sarcasm.
It absolutely is self serving.
