Have to give him some credit. He gets buried on every point he tries to make. It just bounces off of him and he continues on like the enegizer Bunny.
It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

More like, "Now that I have mine, I don't want to give it to anybody else."

That's because giving it to them is helping to keep you from getting it.

You seem to be implying that the fact that you don't own the tool is unfair in some way.
And it is.
I'm not talking about freedom from the state. I'm talking about freedom from coercion/freedom from the initiation of force against yourself.
Sure, but I happen to think that force can be wrong regardless of who initiates it.
So you think freedom means the financial ability to do/buy things, rather than the right to do/buy things?
If by "right," you mean state sanction, freedom means both.
Sorry, but that doesn't make sense. One can have the financial ability to do/buy things, but if the state says "no", then the financial ability is meaningless, and certainly not an example of freedom.
On the other side of the coin, though, you can be free to do something without being able to afford to do that thing. You do see the difference, right?
No. Lack of money can be even more of a constraint (i.e. lack of freedom) than a law. For instance, I smoked up without much worry of being imprisoned this weekend, but for instance if I wanted to get a car, it'd be much, much more difficult.
Regardless, the morality of coercion is always a valid point, whether it is addressed or not. Put another way, Vel's scenario is moral for reasons that he didn't state, while your scenario is immoral for reasons you didn't state.
But that isn't relevant as I was addressing Vel's argument, not something that didn't exist in his post.
So a doctor shouldn't make, say, 10 times as much money as a janitor? I bet the doctor spent 10 times as much time and money on his education, though..
Why should the amount of money spent on education be proportion to the wage a worker recieves?

Unfortunately, Ramo, I am unable to find anything in these definitions that compels capitalists and workers to be separate "classes." As one who both has put his own money and effort (were you working at 12:30 last night, after being in the office for 10 hours that day?) in businesses that I own significant chunks of equity, your and Kids assertion that I am not a capitalist kinda hurts me - what do I have to do to get you to wish for my elimination based upon my work title? Just stop working? But I enjoy it...
I don't want your elimination. I just want to see democracy in your work-place.

Quiet you.
