========IF everything is relative, Isn't the statement "everything is relative" relative?
Why is the right uncomfortable discussing socialism? Cognitive dissonance?
Why is the right uncomfortable discussing socialism? ......
No, I am agreeing with you! There is no formula for predicting history. No theory to predicting history! You are absolutely right!This guy's got to be a spambot that spits out ad hominems and econ theory names. Had me going.LOL!!you're toast. You're just talking gibberish now. You've got a concussion.Your response overlooks the fact of convex preferences, therefore is faulty.oh no. A peerless, unemployed professor draws curves that makes him conclude that protection doesn't include exports, no matter what reality says.LOL! You took "some Econ." Yeah, you blew an Econ major in the bathroom is probably what you meant.
Your posts indicate deep ignorance of the Bernouli Curve and Stromboli Theorem.
lol! What a fucking rube
Still there's the reality outside your head that the country's competitiveness, prosperity even, is not nor has been through laissez faire trade policy. Quite the contrary.
There's an entire department in the DoC for administering export protections, quotas, embargoes. There's no curve or theory that predicts history.
Yes there is no predicting history. That is the truest thing you've written so far.
LOL!!!! WHat a dipshit. You have no idea just how stupid and ignorant you sound. None whatsoever.
capitalism created the wealth and population that made medical research possible on a huge scale!! In the Civil War for example if you got wounded you died. SimpleThe first vaccine. That established the base work for the rest of the vaccines, more were created during the XIX century and further development was made during the XX century.:"the vaccines." The Salk Vaccine was invented in 1776? The papillomavirus vaccine was invented in 1776? Or do you mean one specific vaccine, namely smallpox, that was invented then? Because you are committing a fallcy here.Ed Jenner invented the vaccines in 1776. Waaay before 20th century.Medicine predates capitalism Ed.
100% stupid it was not until the 20th Century that medicine could be helpful at all. Before that there was very very little

Stop with the superlatives.
Tens of thousands were wounded that lived. Many simply recovered, many had limbs amputated. Its laughable to see anyone make these shrill ITS ALL OF EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL THE TIME assertions. Relax. Present actual facts, dump some water on your head to put the fire out, and speak calmly.
Advancements in most fields were brought about because individual human beings had a passion for the thing they were working on or researching, not because they had a huge pile of money.
Let's have some clarity among the flailing of hands shall we.
“If machines produce everything we need, the outcome will depend on how things are distributed.” Hawking continued, “Everyone can enjoy a life of luxurious leisure if the machine-produced wealth is shared, or most people can end up miserably poor if the machine-owners successfully lobby against wealth redistribution. So far, the trend seems to be toward the second option, with technology driving ever-increasing inequality."
We have been warned.

The insurance companies collect money from many people and pay it out to those in need. Did you ever hear anything more socialistic?
100% stupid since insurance is competitive. If you don't do it well you go bankrupt according to the rules of capitalism. Govt is a monopoly , it has no competition so there is no incentive to do things well, cheaply, or efficiently. Now you know why 120 million slowly starved to death in the USSR and Red China.
Do you understand why we are positive that liberalism is based in pure and deadly ignorance?

California was run by conservatives like Reagan, who helped build the state. The aerospace industry in the 50s and 60s didnt hurt either.The insurance companies collect money from many people and pay it out to those in need. Did you ever hear anything more socialistic?

California is the most liberal state in the Union and its economy is twice the size of the nest closest state, Texas. Not bad for a bunch of liberals eh.
And California did go into debt during the Bush Great Recession like many states did but California is now running a 5 billion dollar surplus and is well on its way back, as are many states. We all survived the 2008 Republican recession.
And those liberals in Hollywood make some great movies yes? Or do cons not watch 'liberal' movies? lol Where is the con movie industry? You'd think Mel Gibson and Rupert Murdoch would have started a con movie industry to offset Hollywood. Or is it that conservative movies have no market.
Ahhhh, the capitalist market, it does work doesn't it.
You dont know what the word superlative means. Typical.Except largely he's right. Most wounded people died.

Look up the word superlative.
Wow thats quite a country you live. I should visit it sometime.It really has been fascinating to watch during Obama's term, as the hardcore Left has become FAR more comfortable with defending and promoting socialism.
His administration really has been a turning point.
.
Examples of "promoting socialism" seem to be missing. Please elucidate with examples.
Oh, and I would like someone to detail how the private for profit sector is always better, cheaper and more effective than a government agency.
The private, for profit sector must constantly look out for waste. If they have a lot of waste, it cuts into their profit. A government agency only needs a politician to push for more funding and raising taxes to provide more money. A business can raise prices but only to a point. If the government raises taxes, what option do people have but pay them. For example, if the local school district wants more money, they raise the millage rate to get more money and it comes in property taxes. If you don't pay those property taxes, even if you own the property, it can be taken.
The private sector can collude with its competition to set prices and raise them with no explanation or only a flimsy excuse. The Private sector is not beholden to the people, a legislator who violates the trust of his constituency can be kicked out of office, a CEO can't be held accountable by The People; but The People's representatives can in terms of criminal and civil sanctions.
We live in a nation, as do most who live in Western Democracies, where the public and private sectors co-exist. They do so when it benefits The People.
There is no proof we get a better deal from the private sector than we do from the public one. There are more checks on public works than on private ones and most government brick and mortar projects are done by private firms who bid on the projects.
Remember, the Articles of Confederation were tossed under the bus for good reason.
In the US companies compete with each other and do not collude on prices. The few examples that are publicized of collusion are publicized precisely because they are few. And the US is prosecuting them.
How many legislators are kicked out of office for violating public trust? Yeah none.
THere is no accountability in public works. How many people were fired in the Obamacare website fiasco? Yeah, none. There is your accountability.

100% stupid since there were few advancements before Republican capitalism instantly transformed the world. Does Mr. mute point understand???
As a California native and refugee. We at least agree about this history.California was run by conservatives like Reagan, who helped build the state. The aerospace industry in the 50s and 60s didnt hurt either.The insurance companies collect money from many people and pay it out to those in need. Did you ever hear anything more socialistic?

Since then liberals have taken over and reduced it to shit-status. The state is bankrupt and businesses are fleeing in droves. If it werent for immigration the state would have lost population.
Once again, what you think yuou know is wrong.
. We all survived the 2008 Republican recession.
dear stupid, how could it be a Republican recession when the country was more liberal than ever then???
100% stupid as always. Conservative movies would have had no appeal in Nazi Germany in the 1930's but that does not mean conservatism is mistaken.Or is it that conservative movies have no market.
. We all survived the 2008 Republican recession.
dear stupid, how could it be a Republican recession when the country was more liberal than ever then???
Republicans controlled the White House and both houses of Congress from 2003-2007. The recession started in 2008. I know its hard but try to use your last existing brain cell. Give it a workout at least once a day.
I've found private sector contractors to be less responsible and more dishonest than the public employees.
