Speaking of words, I clicked on this thread expecting to see a conversation about the words in the title.

Then you must be extremely unobservant. This is the soap box.

You should know by now that most threads devolve into libertarian semantics, where we're forced to step back to 500BC levels of understanding and discourse

Your talking point about letting "the rich rob the fuck out of everybody else". I just called you on it.

As for this thread, Talage pretty much ended it with the 4th post.

Okay and? Do you want this to descend into another uninstructive lesson in libertarian anti-intellectualism, or?

well that is up to you. I am curious how the rich can legally ROB you, unless backed by the govt. Just found that to be a curious statement.

Then I have to assume you don't pay attention to the world around you

Have a nice day

I'll likely be called out for being a "snob" or something like that, but I seriously refuse to engage someone in a conversation here unless they're an adult who has shown the motivation and ability to do their own homework

Guess I won't be posting much

What is your definition of "soak"? How many percentage points of a tax raise counts as a "soak"?

Are you trying to set up a tautology here? I'm just guessing that your definition of "rob" is that it's intrinsically illegal and so no legal action could count.

I'm through giving informative and thorough answers to people who are too incompetent to parse them. There are much better and more satisfying ways to enjoy my time, one of which is throwing poo at apes like you

^haha, clever. You are probably a bit better at that activity.

Foolish, to use "rob" implies to take against one's will. As stated, the govt only possess that ability legally. So every dollar those evil rich "rob" is in fact given willingly. There is a big difference between the two. In fact, polar opposites.

Danger is just rambling talking points soley based soley on envy. They have so much so they must have done something wrong, therefore we should take it. It is just dishonest and it helps breed an attitude that it is ok to take from another. I happen to disagree.

Well, feeding the beast led to massive deficits. As such, it seems whatever happens we wind up with massive deficits.

We all know how effective Republicans are in times of crisis. Witness "My Pet Goat" and Katrina.
