[QUOTE="rickyb, post: 4610254, member: 56035"] yea but the stuff that makes people's lives better isnt always profitable and therefore rewarded by capitalism. capitalism quite often makes peoples lives worse; wall st and big oil are 2 examples. right now we are in a capitalist bubble that will pop and people's lives will get much worse, but already this generation of americans has a lower standard than the previous. my take on adults living in basements is their opinions shouldnt be discounted although they may not be experts. im obviously not an expert. i could be president only with a team of advisors, not by myself. and i would do a better job than the guys "who know something" because they are corrupt anyways so what they know doesnt matter. thanks for actually answering, alot of guys like bad idea guy will say something bail and not answer. [B]what makes you think what you do is all that different from what i do?[/B] you only live on your own because you work more than 40 hours a week. i dont have time for that. also i dont really get what you mean by doing something will gain understanding on the problems we face? starting up a business is only going to enlighten you so much about hte problems. like im looking at tuition right now and its $30,000. does that count as doing something and gaining knowledge? or did i already know this crap before i looked at my course from reading articles. years ago i went to the bank to get info on a mortgage. does that count as doing something or did i already know more from just reading stuff on the housing bubble?
