    I'm not answering the question because it's completely irrelevant. The scouts never owned the land, so you can't expropriate from them.

      If the government let me rent land for $1/year when the market value is a couple hundred thousand times greater than that, that is a subsidy.

        Answer the damn question, Asher.

        In this hypothetical example, would the compensation you received from the government be considered a subsidy?

          The subsidy is giving you access to the land WELL below market value. That is a subsidy -- PERIOD. No matter what else you may concoct to surround the situation, IT DOES NOT CHANGE THAT FACT.

            Answer the damn question, Asher.

            If the government were to expropriate your apartment, sell it to someone else, and gave you a cheque in the mail, would the cheque be considered a subsidy?

            Yes or no, Asher.

            Simple question.

            I'll keep cutting and pasting this till you answer.

              Good, because I just reported you for spamming.

              I'll ask you a question first, one that is just as relevant as yours:

              If you were raped by a priest, would you prefer he sodomize you with a splintery broomstick, the priest's penis, or a scalding hot rod?

                    Here's a simpler question for you.

                    You see a priest raping a little boy, do you have a blue hat on? Yes or no.

                    Simple question.

                            • Ben, if I rent land from you and build a permanent improvement, say a house, on that land, to whom does that house belong?

                              Until you answer that question, you have failed to show that the Scouts are due compensation for the building.

                              Also:
                              This is the other argument. This law contradicts freedom of association. If the scouts were to take the law up to the supremes, it would get curbstomped.
                              No. Just ****ing no. Again, your freedom of association is not violated when the government decides to stop giving you special, beneficial treatment based on your choice of association.

                                What would be the difference in the quality of your repeated cut-and-paste posts compared to original posts you make?
