We've had a form of "free market capitalism" for scores of decades
now. What did it do for us? The Long Boom. The strongest national
economy in the history of the modern world. The most affluent
middle-class in modern history.

Please don't respond, though. It's not that you will have any
reasonable refutation. You won't. It's that I've had my fill of
liberal naivete, misinformation, dissembling, hyperbole, propaganda,
and prevarication.

(I did have a very good friend once who was an ardent liberal; but,
he wasn't intellectually dishonest.)

I'm no liberal by any stretch of the imagination. You just figuratively
killed the messenger by rejecting out of hand John Mackey's ideas because I
labeled him progressive. How stupid can that be? Did you even read what he
had to say? His ideas are largely free-market and workable proposals. Don't
confuse you with the facts, your mind is made up, just like the Dims in
Washington on Capitol Hill and at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.


There's no sense in wasting your time and energy, Lu. He is nothing
but empty rhetoric. Most Progressive's lack compassion, a genuine
sense of history, and intellectual honesty. They not doubt like to
think better of themselves; but, then only a person that IS willing to
be intellectually honest will examine the flaws in their own
reasoning. That's why there is such a flurry of informal fallacies
coming from the left, and when that fact is spoken to, the discussion
simply goes somewhere else in true red herring fashion.

They do love the their Leviathon.
