I argue that it is. On the grounds that we as humans have no moral right to possession of anything. This world wasn't just you know, given to humankind to exploit. This is a world on which we ALL live. You. Me. Everyone. We have to share it or we will not survive.
Capitalism is a system of sharing opportunity. It results in everyone sharing more prosperity. It grows the pie instead of rationing it.
I argue that we take away bonuses for chairmen and donate them to education everywhere. I argue that we take away the ridiculous salaries, the Ferraris, everything. We have finite resources, my friend. To encourage capitalism is to encourage your own destruction through greed.
I for one believe Altmer makes too much money. He should be forced to give 90% more of it away to the public treasury. Altmer is not doing his fair share. We all have finite resources my friend. You're using too many of them. He makes a clearly ridiculous compensation according to my new socialist government. I shall call this new tax to "increase fairness (~Barack Obama)"the "fairness tax." It is only fair that Altmer give up an additional 90% of his government. That is fairness. That is fairness. That is fairness. That is fairness. That is fairness. That is fairness. That is fairness.
You have to take money by force from people, taxed or otherwise, because if you don't, an elite will sit on a fuckzoid of money drinking wine at their tables while everyone else screams for pennies. And fuck me with a stick if the elite did all that on their own. Do you really think all the millionaires got to where they were cheaply? Are you this naive?
Or the "elite," like they do in America, will build a business that employs people who make goods and services for that company that other people buy. People who buy those goods will see a need for some other good in the market, and they will build a business and employ people. The more left-wing you are in America, the more of your own money you hoard. You know why? Leftists think charity is the government's job.
The socialist elite can't be bothered to drop their Chardonnay and Brie, they are the upper crust, you see. They support income redistribution, and quite frankly, that's good enough for them. The beggar at their feet? Fuck him. Let him go to the government for money. He wants my cloak? Get the fuck away beggar! It is mine! Get in line at the Ministry of Cloaks. We're trying to have a discussion about the abolition of private property, beggar! So get out of my massive four floor mansion! Begone from this place, your filth and poverty disgust me! I have the government pay plenty of money out to the Ministry. You should have gotten in line sooner! We have limited resources! *BURP*
It is blind to ignore the principles of nature. If America will not see that its capitalist premise is inherently selfdestructive and needs limitation and rules to keep the selfdestructive tendencies of humankind in check, then I will let them destroy themselves.
Yes, the world's only Hyperpower is surely on the path to self-destruction, what with people from every other nation willing to violate our laws to jump onto our clearly sinking ship. Ignore the principles of nature? What about the principle of nature that when you give a greedy socialist bastard a gun he will take your money, spend it frivolously because he did not work for it, and then call you uncharitable before sending you off to the re-education camp? (See: Soviet Union, Maoist China, Nazi Germany)
I have hope that Obama makes it so that this will take precedence over anything else. If anything, we are all people; let us be modest enough to realise that we are all just people. Your oblique claims of possession and force are void in ways of thinking that preclude the very nature of greed. Humans have to realise that their intelligence does not mean they have everything for the taking.
Look Foreigner, get out of our elections. There's a reason the Netherlands is a forgotten blip on the radar who rely on their neighbors for basic defense if an actual crisis were to occur. Socialists worldwide live in safety knowing that when their ass is in the fire, bighearted Americans will sacrifice everything so they can continue to eat brie and drink the finest aged wines and tell us how we're a bunch of uncharitable bastards, despite our penchant for outpouring more money per capita than any other nation. Despite our willingness to shed blood on your soil for your fat, bloated, entitlement centered socialist hellholes across the pond. You will always be there when you need us.
I'm glad you're healthy Altmer. I imagine your tune about socialist medicine would change rapidly if you were sick. Just ask all the people who died from diseases that are easily treatable in early stages that were told to wait by the health care bureaucracy. They were forced to wait, their disease went to the next stage and beyond care, and they died. We have finite resources. So if you aren't fast enough and can't afford private care, just go die, you are a drain on the state. That's the Socialist Way. Free care for the young healthy, Death for the sick and elderly. Truly "advanced" society you've got there. Herd animals treat their vulnerable and wounded better than socialists do.
If we are to be sapient beings, we should finally get off our ass and take the responsibility for what we do to the Earth on a daily basis. That means that we stop this ridiculous wealth gap growth between the elite rich and the massive poor. And Ancien Regime: Socialised health care works fine in the country I live in. It works fine in all of Europe. If yours failed, you're doing it wrong.
How about we stop China from polluting the hell out of everything instead of bitching about capitalists, the driving force behind innovative technologies? It wasn't government bureaucrats who invented solar panels, wind turbines, hydroelectric dams, or nuclear reactors. The Communist nations are the world's largest polluters, hands down. This is because in capitalist democracies, the government is forced to listen to the people instead of follow their blind socialistic vision.
Then I have to say that for this reason my favourite US Presidents are Roosevelt and Clinton, so you know where I stand.
Roosevelt at least fought off fascism to his credit. Clinton was a womanizer and a lout. Both of them are infinitely better than OFraud. Call me when a dark skinned man of any sort, especially the inexperienced, unrepentant terrorist hugging, radical racist embracing kind gets elected for the highest office in The Netherlands. If you won't accept his ilk in your country, don't foist him on us. The World Citizenry can keep Obama, we want a United States citizen as President.
Socialism is not charity, it is spending other people's money. Would you like your paycheck cut a solid 90% Altmer? No? But, don't you care about the poor? We have finite resources, you know. And we can't grow them either. That would be capitalistic, and capitalists are greedy. This is about fairness. And the amount of money you make is unfair. I can spend it better. Give it to me instead.
Oh, and Obama is a socialist. In addition to telling Joe the Plumber all about how he'll spread the wealth, a new tape of an interview from 2001 has Obama talking about the best way to
redistribute wealth (whether it is a good thing to do at all did not come up, oddly enough). He also seems to think the Founding Fathers had a blind spot for not making the Constitution a document that enables government instead of limiting it. [Thus ignoring the
entire purpose of the Constitution]
In short, he's an anti-American socialist mobster of the European variety. Europeans are not and have never been Americans (until they realize Europe is a stuffed-up hole and move here). They are senile old fools that act like giant babies when we don't take the sagely advice that led them into complete defenselessness, massive entitlement programs, negative ecomonic growth, and double-digit unemployment.
You can be born in Britain and live your entire life in France and never become French. In America you can come from ANY country in the world and become an American. That doesn't happen through socialism, because socialism is based on the idea that economic classes are frozen and upward mobility is a myth. America is different from Europe, and will long outlast her unless we follow down their road. Which is exactly what we will do if OFraud is elected.
