1% Of America Has 40% Of America's Wealth~ (Magna Carta? Robin Hood?)

[BlackSand]

I've noticed that you don't debate - you harangue, you abuse, and you overwhelm - not with logic, but with arrogance.

I also notice that the flaws in your position were pointed out in Post #64, and you have studiously avoided responding. Perhaps, you have no answer?

Tell you what - I am everything you detest. Why don't you and I debate? No name calling, no attacks, just honest debate. I would truly welcome the opportunity to show you how wrong you are.

I noticed this as well. 90% of Antiparty's posts aren't actually debating anything, they are just claiming victory or dismissing others' arguments without addressing them.

It is like Bizarro-EconChick.

Uh ... I hate to support a poster that at face value seems to oppose ideas that are important to me (at times) ... But we are talking about Antiparty.

In a lot of cases all the poster does is spur conversation over relevant ideas the two major parties combat over ... And prods other posters into spirited debate over their particular leanings. It might not be a coincidence the poster doesn't get dragged into party specific aspects of the argument.

Again ... Not taking the poster's part ... Just commenting on possible intent or motive.

......Never even attempted to read NAFTA did you kid?

too stupid and 100% liberal as always. individuals, cities, states and countries are free to trade with one another!! It was liberal unions that put USA at competitive disadvantage. Make liberal unions illegal again and the 30 miilion jobs come home!

Do you understand now?

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

we shipped FACTORIES oversea's via NAFTA.

100% stupid and liberal. Economists on all side believe in free trade. If you don't trade internationally your goods are not world class and then your country is not world class.

Do you understand now??

Purple LOL.

The first person who understands the significance of Royal Purple wins a balloon!

What do you mean by significance?

It was expensive, the dye hard to make, this only the rich could afford it.

In Rome who could wear it was regulated by law.

What exactly are you asking?

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

You don't know the difference between Democrat, Green, Progressive, Socialist or Communist do you?.

dear there is no difference. They all support big liberal central govt and so are opposed to freedom from liberal govt which is what our Constitution was designed to support. Obama had 3 communist parents and voted to left of Bernie Sanders. What does that teach the liberal?


The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of 'liberalism' they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.


This was precisely the tactic of “infiltration” advocated by Lenin and Stalin.[3] As Communist International General Secretary Georgi Dimitroff told the Seventh World Congress of the Comintern in 1935:
"Comrades, you remember the ancient tale of the capture of Troy. Troy was inaccessible to the armies attacking her, thanks to her impregnable walls. And the attacking army, after suffering many sacrifices, was unable to achieve victory until, with the aid of the famous Trojan horse, it managed to penetrate to the very heart of the enemy’s camp."[4]

C. S. Lewis on Diabolical Democracy Socialism and Public Education Conservative Colloquium


Buckley endorsed Chambers’ analysis of modern liberalism as a watered-down version of Communist ideology. The New Deal, Chambers insists, is not liberal democratic but “revolutionary” in its nature and intentions, seeking “a basic change in the social and, above all, the power relationships within the nation.”

"I am for socialism, disarmament, and, ultimately, for abolishing the state itself... I seek the social ownership of property, the abolition of the propertied class, and the sole control of those who produce wealth. Communism is the goal."
--- Roger Nash Baldwin

Translation = NO, EdwardBaiamonte has no idea what the difference is.

But prepare for wall of copied and pasted text instead.

of course if there was a difference the idiot liberal would say exactly what it is!!

There is no meaningful difference. They all support big liberal central govt and so are opposed to freedom from liberal govt which is what our Constitution was designed to support. Obama had 3 communist parents and voted to left of Bernie Sanders. What does that teach the liberal?

There was a reason we made laws against Monopolies (The Anti-Trust Laws) that aren't working today....

There is a reason Magna Carta became a law (this was LONG before the USA and we still struggle with the concept?)

Robin Hood? Take from the greedy rich and give to the needy........Uh oh. Seems History repeats itself.

Last year some CEO's made 331 times more money than the AVERAGE worker. Is that CEO working 331 times as hard?

Corporate profits just hit ANOTHER all time high while workers wages hit ANOTHER all time low
Profits At High Wages At Low - Business Insider

It's the same debate that has been had since at least 1215..........So it's clear some will not learn

There's nothing wrong with our Anti-Trust Laws... the problem is we elect democrat & republican morons who's sole mission in life is to screw over the American public. Our government is more interested in screwing over the taxpayer and forcing us to buy health insurance we don't want than breaking up monopolies.

thankfully we live in a free country. If Bill Gates has too much money and saves too many poor babies in Africa we can all stop buying his products!! We can cut him off!!

this peaceful method is better than creating a lib Nazi Guillotine army to steal the money or cut their heads off.

It is easy to sit on high, pontificating endlessly, or as in this case, spreading misinformation and ignorance. Then, when challenged, run and hide.

It is not enough to state a position - you must be able to defend the veracity of that position.

Otherwise, you're just a troll - as it appears in this case.

Jack I'm going to bed. GJ on debating the Derp, he will not learn. Pie charts are HARD.

It was fun discussing perspectives.

Jack - what that means is he is defenseless. He doesn't believe a word he says, and he sure as hell can't back them up.

Some would call him chicken, but I won't - I'll just say he's deluded.

"Spare Change" sounds a lot like "Loose Change" yet you don't know who drove that attack..........do ya kiddo.

Waiting on you, my friend ... bring your guns.

Let me help you ---- there are two inherent flaws in your logic.

"CEO's made 331 times more money than the AVERAGE worker. Is that CEO working 331 times as hard?"

Compensation has nothing - zilch-nada-zero - to do with how hard you work. It has EVERYTHING to do with what you produce. CEOs produce 331 times more than the average worker.

The second flaw?

"Corporate profits just hit ANOTHER all time high while workers wages hit ANOTHER all time low"

Where do 'corporate profits' go? Most companies are publicly owned - your 401(k) owns part of those companies. Shareholders, mutual funds, investors, schools, communities - all of those get those horrid 'corporate profits'. Are you proposing they give that up so that you can get a higher wage?

See the AVERAGE worker wants to think their time at work away from their family is worth something.

You notating that "It's not how hard you work" is a compromise to CAPITALISM. CEO's don't produce, they lead the producers kiddo.

"Where do Corporate profits go?" LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't tell if that is an oxymoron question or the one asking is the moron.

Where do YOU think corporate profits go? You told us you were high up in a large corporation, and I used to run one. Since I signed the checks, I know ... but do you?
