      Since when does "violence" enter the picture? It's a friggin' fine. If someone chooses to hole up and have a shootout at the OK Corral rather than pay a fine for violating a law they knew they were violating, then that person is making a choice, and is certainly not "peaceful."
      Oooohh. Berz is weaving a tangled web in this one.

        I can't answer that one. It's that simple. If you want to destroy my case you will have to find some other way.

              The reason I'm avoiding the question is because it really has nothing to do with the system that I advocate. I'm not interested in trying to figure out what would possibly be fair in a capitalist system.

              He should recieve the same pay for the same amount of work and effort. That's my answer. Take it or leave it.
              How about "the same pay for the same amount of effective work or effort?" - then you're on to something.

                  Yes, because any answer you give would either be inconsistent with the above claim or with this:

                    • Kid, deal with it, Kuciwalker just made you look like a fool. You are basically saying "I can't answer your question because any answer I give would destroy my position." That's the whole point of the question

                        Fine, as long as both producers have equal access to tools.

                            Look, I answered you. I said it's not fair if they don't have access to the same tools.

                            • What if there are fewer tools than people who want access to those tools?

                                That's not what I asked. I asked, should the other person be paid more, because he put in more effort, or paid less, because he produced less?
