[QUOTE="smapple, post: 1644794, member: 55535"] I could call you gopher, doesn't make it so. Stating that something is wrong and calling some law unjust without going through the necessary scrutiny doesn't make it so. If you know what you're talking about then argue your points, don't try to take cheap shots just because you can't wrap your head around the idea that weed is bad for you. So when you say "promoting cooperatives" you actually mean "government should subsidize" businesses, which I am against on both moral and practical grounds. I don't think you're differentiating gains vs profits even though they have very different meanings in economics, but assuming that both are being funneled to the 0.01% I'd like to know who this 0.01% are and how is the money being funneled to them? As far as people determining how much money everyone gets, who are you talking about? Employers and job creators? As far as I can tell if I run my own business and have an agreement with my employees to pay them X amount for Y services and they acknowledge and accept this, how is this unfair to them? They can simply refuse the offer and ask for more X pay, apply with a different employer, or start a competitive business against mine themselves. Bad trade deals like what? And what does anti union laws have to do with creating jobs? As far as college goes if I remember correctly your answer in another thread was to let rich people pay for it, which really wasn't an answer since you were implicitly acknowledging that "free college" really isn't "free". Like I said, unsatisfactory answer. A satisfactory answer would have been something like MIT's Open Course Ware. [/QUOTE]
