Is capitalism obselete?

The quotes stand by themselves. Clinton said what he said. And the record is what the record is.

So where's that response, girl?

"Do you hold the analysis of Barone having overextended the usefulness of shadow pricing in his (Pareto efficient, a strike at L. Von Mises's claims of 'impossibility') economic model to be accurate, and if so, what can be salvaged from the model, in your view?"

My response remains the same as it is every time you choose to blather a bunch of nonsense meant to hide the fact that you are a eunuch:

THat white stuff around chicken shit, that's chicken shit, too.

Just because you know nothing about a subject does not make it nonsense or chickenshit.

Wall Street Journal editorial board - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

the board appears on fox news every sunday.

I think back on all the Shit the right uses to give Ted Turner and just laugh at you people.

yeah, fox news manipulated clinton into saying what he said.

What a stupid thing to say.

WSJ is right wing leaning though, just like Fox is.

why would you ask who owns WSJ if not to discredit the link?

"On June 16, 2006, Rep. Richard Baker, R-La., asked the Justice Department to investigate his allegations that two former Fannie Mae executives lied to Congress in October 2004 when they denied manipulating the mortgage-finance giant's income statement to achieve management pay bonuses. Investigations by federal regulators and the company's board of directors since concluded that management did manipulate 1998 earnings to trigger bonuses. Raines and Howard resigned under pressure in late 2004. Howard's Golden Parachute was estimated at $20 Million, of which he had to return $5.4 million. (Regulator settles with ex-Fannie Mae execs | Reuters). Mr. Johnson and Mr. Raines aren't the only figures in the subprime mortgage scandal to be connected to the Obama campaign. Jamie Gorelick, rumored to be an attorney general candidate in an Obama administration, was vice chairman of Fannie Mae from 1997 to 2003 [and was the former Deputy Attorney General in the Clinton administration]. Penny Pritzker, Mr. Obama's national finance chairman, has been described as "the Michael Milken of the subprime mortgage crisis" for her pioneering of the packaging of bad loans with good ones at her now defunct Superior Bank in suburban Chicago.”

Although I am not a fan of GWB, it is only fair to say that, going back to the beginning of his administration, President Bush warned of the problems at these institutions and the consequences if Congress did not bring them under control. Seventeen times, Bush publicly called for reform of both institutions. But Democrats and Republicans in Congress ignored the warnings and denied there were any problems.
The Democratic Party | PartyBuilder | B's Buzz: Learning from history: Deregulation does not work

Barack Obama has identified the legislation as ground zero of the financial implosion, the deregulatory predicate for Wall Street's excess. As a Texas conservative who afflicted liberaldom for years before decamping to Wall Street, Gramm is easy to vilify. That doesn't make the case against him any less unjust....
One, Democrats in good standing supported the final bill. Robert Rubin and Larry Summers, Clinton Treasury officials whom Obama relies on for advice, supported it. Joe Biden voted for it, it passed the Senate with 90 votes, and President Clinton signed it. Heaven knows, Washington can make bipartisan mistakes, but if the bill were so obviously the road to financial perdition, presumably some of these Democrats much keener to regulate the economy than Gramm would have voted “no.”
Democrats wrong to villify Gramm, deregulation bill

No, your response is the same that you choose to give when you babble like the crackhead banshee that you are.

That swollen stuff around Babble's snatch, that's VD sores too.

Once again, nice. It must be the fear of venereal disease that makes children so attractive to you. Of course, you don't mind spreading it to them, since they aren't as valuable as animals....

Fear of venereal disease? My God, Babble, I didn't even bother considering all the effects of gonorrhea until I encountered your shrieking banshee ass. Nor did I consider the combined effects of involuntary celibacy, hourly menopausal hot flashes, and aggravated rabies that you're clearly experiencing.

 

[AllieBaba]

Wow. You obviously have issues with your mama.

 

[Agnapostate]

Wow. You obviously have issues with your mama.

Whoa! Sharp retort! The pain!

 

[AllieBaba]

Just commenting on the obvious.

 

[Agnapostate]

On the oblivious, rather. Which parallels your general style of posting.

We have never had true and unfettered capitalism here however we need to fight toward that goal imho, a strong centralized government is not what I want, I'd prefer black markets to socialism personally.

 

[Agnapostate]

And I'd prefer socialism to strong centralization and authoritarianism, which is what every variety of capitalism entails.

Look at the results of the past few months on Wall Street and you'll get the answer.

Look at the results of the past 80 years on Wall Street and you'll get your answer

WSJ is right wing leaning though, just like Fox is.

The difference is that the WSJ doesn't editorialize it's content.

but it printed something unfavorable for a democrat, which is not allowed.

 

[Agnapostate]

The news section doesn't, but the editorial section undoubtedly leans far to the right.

Perhaps if we look to the other European countries, such as Britan, Sweden, France and so on, perhaps it's time to consider their methods of partial-nationalization of our banking industry to prevent another Great Depression. We've seen what a lack of regulation can do to our economy... if the government controlled the decisions of the businesses that are critical to our economy, perhaps the whole idea recessions and depressions will become obselete.

What do you think?

Hitler was right; we need a "third way".
