Would you inform on a benefits cheat?

[jillian]

yea, it's called the internet. In case you don't remember, the music indistry lives on after the death of payolla policies too.


If you want to defend music companies that pump out sub-par music and uber hype then so be it. But, I'll direct you to Willie Nelson, Trent Reznor and Radiohead just like I did with anyone else that seems to forget that musical talent is not a formula even if you really, REALLY liked the back street boys.

so because there's a means for theft, that means you should steal? so if you get someone's password for their atm card, does that mean you can walk over and take their cash?

What you think of the talent of the people whose work you're stealing is irrelevant... same as whether you think it's ok to steal from the rich to give to the poor.

either way, it's theft.

 

[Shogun]

It's obvious to me that Shoguns Bi polar disorder determines his opinions.He is now convinced that I claim benefits while working and never pay my taxesBy that token I now believe he is a drug addicted thief but only because he has admitted as much.

believe what you want, dude. Your input has thus far been as significant as a tonka truck on a construction site. Oh, and make sure you rationalize fucking welfare and the gov while being as ambiguous as possible in the thread, dude. stealing music probably is still just as horrendous as robbing the poor for your tivo bill.

 

[manifold]

what the fuck? Are you this desperate to keep from having yet another mud hole stomped in your ass? Defrauding the gov DOES cost tax dollars that would have otherwise been spent on a whole array of programs. Programs that fit a heirarchy according to how relevant they are socially. A sate is not going to cut the DMV from its budget when welfare bennys are significant to only a portion of the population: you know, those poverty stricken people who use them unlike the roads taht we ALL use. If you are this stupid, and I imagine you are just pulling a ravi, then you really need to go kick your HS counselor in the balls for failing you.

And stealing profits away from record labels results in them paying less taxes, which leads to less money being available to fund welfare programs you simple minded, arrogant fuck.

And it's not just stealing from record companies. record companies pay royalties, which is what artists live off of.

Shogun Morality 101

Stealing from government = Bad

Stealing from private industry = Good

I guess it is consistent with the totalitarian-socialist dogma he's always on about.

What's the diff?

Private industry/big business and government are in bed together anyway.

Yup. Ultimately the cost of theft, of ANY kind, is ultimately borne by john. q. public. Snothead just can't seem to grasp this concept.

I started the thread you thief but maybe you are too drug addled to remember the original question? You began your rants by equating benefit fraud with rape and murder then went on to try and justify your drug taking and thieveryYou need to keep the meds up dude, or switch the computer off until you regain a managable focus.

Just like ending Payolla robs DJs and Travel Agents from income? Shall I remind you of the impotent brouhaha associated with blank cassette and VHS tapes next? Indeed, chicken little watched the sky fall then too, didn't it?


If only the Ashlee Simpsons were as viable to music as ATM cards are to personal finance, Jill... if only.


but, hey, now that mp3s are a reality it's just a matter of time before bittorrent files validate serial murder! It's all criminal, you know!

 

[Shogun]

yup.. because the ONE INDUSTRY that is necessary to fund welfare sure is the music industry!




Gosh, if only the poor KNEW how their food was intertwined with MTV!

I expect rapists and murderers believe the law doesn't apply to them either?

Again. Willie Fucking Nelson, Jill. Don't cry for me, argentina. go out on the fucking road and be a musician instead of a media creation.

i know, expecting artists to perform for their bread is just NUTS.

you want to compare ENDING an illegal activity (that I don't beleve has been around for a very long time, anyway) with allowing illegal activity because you don't think the person is talented??? That's pretty retarded, Shogie. Though I'm sure Morris Levy would have loved your rationale since he stole from his acts because they were poor and black, anyway, so were supposed to be happy with what they got... and he justified that. *shrug*

The point, which for some reason you're refusing to get is that stealing is stealing....regardless of the person from whom you're stealing.

 

[Shogun]

YEA!


the shrinking middle class is the product of...



MP3 PIRATES!










Government cheese running dry?? Well, let's get Bruce Springsteen to release a new album and the coffers will fill!





you poor, desperate bitch.

 

[manifold]

Again with the strawman lies from a vanquished, unworthy opponent. As if ONE INDUSTRY is all that funds anything.

Unless of course you don't think the music industry pays income taxes?

Or that you don't think taxes fund welfare?

Retard!


Shogun's pwning has been a USMB service provided my your friendly neighborhood manifold.

Again. Willie Fucking Nelson, Jill. Don't cry for me, argentina. go out on the fucking road and be a musician instead of a media creation.

i know, expecting artists to perform for their bread is just NUTS.

as opposed to getting paid for their sound recordings?? are you having a brain blip today?

*Edit* And just for the fun of it, why don't you tell us what PAYS for touring acts? Hint: Pre-royalty income from record sales.

Of course you started the thread.. with a single impotent statement. Would you like me to remind you what your answer was the FIRST time I sked you to clarify or would you rather stay in your little snail shell like a scared little bitch? And, yes, BENEFIT FRAUD and MURDER are major crimes. Federal charges both. Now, you silly little bitch, what is the criminal scope of, uh, downloading mp3s? I tellya, it's just a fucking one way ticket to rickers for an mp3 of a metallia song!




Perhaps you and mani can get together and create your own little support group for vindictive little pussies who share a common Shogun brand mudhole stamp in your ass..






smoking a joint doesn't validate how you molested your kid sister in jr high either, dude. Just thought Id let you know now before hoping that calling me bi-polar will keep your guilt at bay.

but shogie isn't.

and if robin hood were around today, he would be reviled by the right as a communist.

 

[Shogun]

Do you have evidence to suggest as much or, once again, are you looking for ANYTHING to justify robbing welfare and the .gov?


Every day millions of highway speedsters validate your "welfare robbing Tivo subscription" lifestyle, dude.


for REAL.
