[QUOTE="22LR, post: 571757, member: 24005"] This again? I guess I might as well rehash the same answer. "HAHAHA. Yeah, there were a lot of options for kids born in coal camps in West Virginia in the 40's. The schools were top notch, universities were nearby and affordable for workers, there were means of transporation to get you wherever you needed to go, parents needed no help from their kids to survive and there were thousands of fields to work in and the jobs paid more than enough to live and store a nice nest egg! He simply chose to work in a coal mine his hole life and retire a few years from death only to live in squalid conditions with poisoned lungs. It would be funny if it wasn't so disgusting." I've replied thoughtfully and based my posts on rational thought and sources. You haven't bothered to engage any of the actual issues at hand. Apologists for capitalism always fall back on the same few arguments (which are always "common sense," emotions to appeal or pure rhetoric). Is that your method of debate? It may wear down the other person to the point where they won't bother responding to you anymore, but that doesn't mean you've won. [/QUOTE]
