    Happy to add some institutions that meet MSH's criteria as immoral:

    Income taxes
    Social Security

    Hi Platt,
    Don't you want to tell us why these fit my description of immoral
    institution, which, BTW, is just an approximation awaiting group
    discussion?

    The first four I think will come down to your belief that individual
    freedom means freedom for a person to make as much money as possible,
    no matter how, and regardless of the effect on the freedom of others
    and on society as a whole, which, if the effect on others is
    negative, would fail the definition as it now stands.

    "Government regulations" is to broad to be useful, and I don't know
    what "Fiat money" means. I think the group would appreciate it if
    you'd develop and support your ideas, rather than just obstruct what
    I am hoping will be a constructive discussion.

    Thanks,
    msh
