Progressives are economic retards

IIRC Drake lives in the Bronx, attends Columbia, and is dual-majoring in African American studies and Womens' studies.

I've recently decided to change my major in Womyn's Studies to Agriculture Specializing in Gender. Seems more useful in the real world.

As a history major? Do you stand outside and give street lectures on the history of advertising?

You act as if it takes a real education to work in advertising. Oh, Sloww...

Fixed.

He majors them from the front and from behind

I'm assuming the troll here is many of these are subjective statements with "correct/incorrect" interpretations by some apparently even-more-ignorant journal?

QFT. The only objective one is the "company with the largest share is a monopoly" question. Coincidentally the gap between progressives and libertarians is much smaller for that question. This poll merely proves that there is a correlation between political affiliation and how people use words.

Advertising would explain why Drake is such a great bull**** artist.

It's a skill anyone with a BA learns in school, and anyone in the real world learns in business.

I haven't bothered to read the whole thread but long story short I could not agree with the OP more.

I can't believe HC made a partisan bald assertion.

It's funny because most libertarians I have known who place great emphasis on its economic doctrine are low to mid wage earners themselves working in industries prone to outsourcing (telemarketing), have benefited from minimum wage laws (service industry), or are government supported (military and municipal worker), and essentially advocate economic positions that run against their own personal interests.

I can understand why a harvard educated economist would be a libertarian but there is no reason why an auto worker should be or 90% of the nation for that matter.

Best post in thread so far.

I can't believe there are people who believe minimum wages that actually have any effect do anything other than increase unemployment and yet it is true. Unfortunately true.

Yeah you don't have to be self-interested to be smart.

EDIT: Wait Riesstiu said that. Was he being sarcastic?

[ricketyclik]

When you get confronted with facts, insult.

I'd say there's more truth in the former.
