Peace be with you. If jps thinks capitalism is bad, then she is simply doing it wrong. It is the only system that provides a mechanism for people to obtain economic freedom. Nobody says a person has to be a wage slave, people sell themselves into wage slavery. jps thinks that if I get rich by starting a company then I should expect to be taxed an extraordinary amount? This makes no sense, why punish success? By being successful, a person pays his dues by providing employment. I have no problem with moderate taxation but a system that attempts to punish success is doomed to produce mediocrity because it rewards mediocrity. I do not see any logical relationship between great wealth and great responsibility. However, anybody who builds a company that generates great wealth has also provided jobs and has fulfilled any potential responsibility. Most people who build such wealth go far beyond that, after all, look at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation trying to end the greatest scourge of mankind, Malaria. Most people who build wealth are ambitious and are not satisfied with just wealth, they want to do more. Look at Jeff Bezos building spacecraft with his billions, look at Elon Musk. Other people who have simply amassed great wealth like George Soros do it thru manipulating the system. They are not capitalists but are statists and they do not do anything useful but are parasites. Al Gore is another example of an economic parasite. Historically we can look at other builders of great wealth such as the Carnegies. Thru the Carnegie foundation they built many libraries throughout the country and endowed many universities such as Florida A & M, an historicaly black university started via Carnegie money. By contrast, all Karl Marx did was produce a philosophy that murdered a hundred million people and destroyed wealth. Production of wealth (not just its accumulation) is the highest form of altruism and should be rewarded. |

Unfortunately, you don't know much about history in the US if you think statism is somehow a negative force. That ship (to use the ng metaphor) sailed along time ago. We do not, have not, nor will we ever have a capitalistic system without gov't involvement, and sometimes we need deep gov't involvement. That type of capitalism has never and can never exist, since it is DOA. It's been tried in watered down form in several places and was an abject failure every time. Even Pinochet rejected the more extreme version of it. -- Nom=de=Plume |

Some of the jobs I worked wouldn't be done by many of our younger generation, or even of my own who believe the nanny state should care for them from cradle to grave. When life was its toughest, I always counted my blessings. Knowing that life is what we make of it, I really have no patience for the bleeding hearts who would deprive me and millions of others of their hard earned money in order to pass along to others who can't or most often won't do for themselves. I willingly give to charities of my choice. I resent highly those who would take the fruit of my labors to give to anyone else. Life is way too short to abide the fools of this forum who brand independent thinkers and conservatives as less than human. Their snobbery and false superiority is sickening. And since life is too precious to spend it in further negativity, I'm done with rec.boats. I plonked my self from this maddening forum. Maybe I'll see you around someday. Duh! Froggy was talking about working for yourself. You just admitted you spent your entire career in the service of government. On the dole and having the government taking "his hard earned money." What was this man of the sheeple saying when we were killing Iraqis and spilling blood and money? Go Bush go. The self-righteous chickenhawks were screaming that disenters were guilty of being unpatrioitc, guilty of sedition, creampuffs. Independent until he gets into the voting booth, then it's **** you, I've got mine. jps: We voted Repubs out of office in 2006 for spending too much money, we expected (or at least some expected) the dems to do better, not far worse. Too bad Bush didn't leave earlier. Perhaps he wouldn't have had to get the first stim going. I guess saving money on healthcare isn't better in your opinion. The war in Iraq as of the end of the Bush admin had cost LESS than the so -called "stimulus" that was nothing but a giveaway to O's friends. Except that Bush presided over the financial debacle and Obama is trying to fix it. Certainly, Bush didn't have any friends on Wall Street or at Haliburton, et. al. -- Nom=de=Plume Troubled Assett Relief Program. *Now, how many mortgages bought by this under Bozoma? *It is only on the order of 10,000, the rest went into Obams buddies pockets. ?? FYI, it's Asset. It passed during Bush's presidency. 3 trillion for Iraq, only under Bozoma could this happen. *If we had eight more years of Bush it would be far less than another 757 billion it cost under his term. This is the estimated cost. Troop levels are down and going down further. This was a war of choice, not of necessity that Bush started. Guess what, Bush and the Repubs warned the dems the meltdown was going to happen. *The Dems denied it. *BArney Frank said Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae were perfectly solvent (of course his lover was part of Freddie Mac) while Obama was being given money by them. You're ranting. They warned no one. They were clueless. Then, ooops... Feel free to blame Frank if that makes you feel better. Why don't you mention that he's gay again. I'm sure that'll help your position. -- Nom=de=Plume Nom: It is a matter of record that the Dems were warned by that Freddie Mac was in trouble and that Frank replied that it was financially sound although he knew it was not. You may deny all you want but it is established fact. John Boner lies every single day. Yesterday I think he said something about every woman being forced to have an abortion. Barney may have fudged (no pun intended) and from what I've read, the R's think he should be put to death without a trial. Of course, that's the way R's prefer to settle disputes. |
