Robert Reich explains the "Free Market" in a nutshell.

[Sallow]

Why doesn't Hillary run on a 90% Tax rate?

Wish she would.

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

Partisan "economists"/theorists on both ends of the spectrum are w-o-r-t-h-l-e-s-s.

You just get one end of the story, always, which is par for the course for partisans.
.

What you are saying is that you lack the IQ to know which said of the story is correct. If you think the capitalist side is incorrect then say why or admit you lack the IQ for it.

Sallow is a genius!! What could be a better idea than taxing investment capital from the people who invent thing to advance the planets standard of living and giving the money to liberal leeches who contribute nothing?

Most billionaires today haven't "invented' anything. And? They don't invest their own money.

You clearly have no idea what I'm talking about.

I know, I know, that doesn't stop you.

The little twerp confuses free market capitalism with government controlled crony capitalism. His solution...more government control.

Makes sense if you are a Marxist.

I swore off on Reich when, immediately after the 9/11 attacks, he delivered an op/ed on NPR extolling the virtues of the police state. Facist fuck IMHO.

AND? NONE invented a damn thing. They ALL stole real well however. Grow a fukkn brain dummy!

too stupid who invented Amazon if not Bezos??

See why we must be positive that liberalism is based in pure ignorance? Is any other conclusion possible?

 

[OnePercenter]

This is a pretty concise high level talk about the "Free Market".

Mine is better.

A free market is an economic system in which prices are determined by unrestricted competition between privately owned businesses.

The problem is that for it to work, all privately owned businesses have to be equal, which isn't the case.

Invented? Are you SERIOUSLY that slow Bubba?


HE CREATED. An INVENTOR is JOBS OR FORD

 

[Bob Blaylock]

Capitalism wasn't even around before government.

A necessary component of Capitalism is the government.

That's nonsense.

The very first time some primitive caveman had an excess of something he didn't need, noticed that his neighbor had an excess of something else that that neighbor didn't need, and offered to trade one for the other, that was capitalism, in its purest form. No government was needed to take any part in that transaction.

That's not capitalism. That's barter.

It's two people, of their complete free will, making an agreement to exchange one thing for another, to the mutual benefit of both. That's the very essence of capitalism.

too stupid dumto3, to create and to invent are very very similar; in either case the last thing we want to do is tax money from our most creative and inventive citizens and thus limit their ability to improve our standard of living.

Do you understand? time to try to change the subject by cutting and pasting in colors and big letters??

[/QUOTE]

capitalism is voluntary economic exchanges. whether you exchange with money or barter is not related to whether its capitalism or socialism.
when the first caveman freely exchanged fresh meat for fire wood, for example, that was natural and it was capitalism.

All the evil on earth is caused by liberals interfering with natural law or freedom.

Yes, we've seen how it "helps" the economy as those "job creators" have the lowest sustained tax burden since before the GOP's first great depression!

When the EFFECTIVE rates AND marginal rates were MUCH, MUCH higher, it limited the US economy right? lol

100% stupid. People are not equal in ability skill drive intelligence luck etc so their businesses wont be equal either. Nevertheless the forces of evolution make them compete for survival thus raising our standard of living at the fastest possible rate.

Liberal are too stupid and anti-science.
