yes i agree, we are quick to dismiss another's perspective, more quick than we are to dismiss our own. i just saw quite a bit of exaggeration in your argument, and it seemed to intensify as we continued.
if someone can show me unbiased proof that these changes would cause world-wide economic collapse, that's one thing. but i think it is mostly speculation and conjecture without that proof - and any of us are hard pressed to find ANY completely unbiased sources.
saying that you don't want government interfering in your life is one thing (funny how people rarely complain about the existence of a federal system for receiving correspondence though), but i have trouble taking seriously any arguments that have a doom and gloom flavor. blame it on being in the bible belt if you like.
but yeah, of course i don't think you, as a person, are paranoid. i can't make that assessment. and i am not one who resorts to name-calling when i don't think i'm winning a debate because that turns it into something else. saying you seem a bit paranoid is not saying your perspective is garbage, only that it seems a bit exaggerated and more about personal opinions than any rational proof... not that i'm really claiming i have rational proof for my perspective either.
