I actually kinda agree. But if we stop short of Bill Gates, we get the likes of Warren Buffet, who can't even do his taxes right; Mark Zuckerberg, who would openly sell state secrets to the Chinese (and has to wait 7 years); George Lucas, who would spend his entire term trying to pass constitutional amendments; and Donald Trump, who would name his toupée VP.Originally posted by Jaguar View PostClick here if you're having trouble sleeping.

Bain Capital havent produced ****. They make money off other peoples companies and labour. You can argue that some of those companies would have ceased to exist without Bains reorganization and that would be fair enough, but don't make out like Romney has created anything of value, because he hasnt.Originally posted by Hauldren Collider View PostYes he has.

Of course he has. That's why people voluntarily gave him money in exchange for it."You're the biggest user of hindsight that I've ever known. Your favorite team, in any sport, is the one that just won. If you were a woman, you'd likely be a slut." - Slowwhand, to Imran

Depends on your definition of value. It's certainly a pretty ****ty qualification for running a country.Comment

It actually doesn't. That's the cool thing about capitalism. People like you don't get to decide what's valuable and what isn't.Originally posted by kentonio View PostIf there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

Another cool thing about Capitalism is that it doesn't have mass starvation."You're the biggest user of hindsight that I've ever known. Your favorite team, in any sport, is the one that just won. If you were a woman, you'd likely be a slut." - Slowwhand, to Imran

19th century Ireland wasn't capitalist?Comment

I used the present tense, and meant it - go back a few centuries and starvation was a problem everywhere - but you should be aware that there were British laws designed to prevent the importation of food in order to "protect" people from being able to eat cheaply.
Incidentally, this is the exact sort of nonsense that we see from the Obama administration."You're the biggest user of hindsight that I've ever known. Your favorite team, in any sport, is the one that just won. If you were a woman, you'd likely be a slut." - Slowwhand, to Imran

The famine was largely a product of import restrictions designed to protect local farmers.Comment
