I owe society nothing, but nor does it owe me anything. Specificly, I don't owe the society that I was born into any loyalty, although I might choose to grant same for some time in exchange for ongoing consideration. Likewise, my society does not owe me any support, although support might be provided.
You owe society everything.
In exactly what format would you like an argument for this statement?
I'd be very happy to oblige your criteria for what constitutes an argument, since it seems that our disagreement hinges on this.
Form a premise that we can agree upon, and then try to build up from that logical beginning. For example, you have already conceded that you own yourself, and that I own myself. That's a premise.
And based upon that premise; that I own myself, then no one else can own me without my consent. How exactly, did I come to owe anything? Did I consent to some great 'social contract'? If you're going to say that I owe because I was born, when did I agree to that? Even communist societies raise children for the benefit of the communist society, not for the children. How do the children born in China under Mao owe Mao, or even China, anything?
More word salad. You are a liberal arts major, aren't you. That degree is perfect for a career in food service, BTW.
I'm not gonna try to engage you further in this meta discussion.
I dropped out of Memphis College of Art in '08 because I wasted all my money on cigarettes and I wanted to persue a career in smashing the state, boycotting the Fed, and doing drugs. I can assassinate my character better than you can, I promise.
Don't you wonder how I knew that?
We have slave vs volunteer, where do you see a real middle ground?
There really isn't a middle ground. Either labor is voluntary or involuntary.
Here's a good point. Elaborate plz? How does the obsolescence of banks and reliance on working for a boss factor into this?
What is there to elaborate? Those words are opposites, and they are absolutes. There can be no middle ground; literally speaking. If you are working for someone, either you agreed to the terms in order to improve your own conditions, or you were forced into servitude against your own will. Being 'forced' to work for a living simply because the alternative is hunger is not involuntary; society does not owe you a living, much less a comfortable one.
