I remember several months ago you didn't like globalisation because it had transferred jobs overseas. I responded then that globalisation had been good, because look how many billions of people (mostly Chinese and Indian) were no longer starving to death. You didn't have a response then, I'm wondering what your response will be now...

In capitalist systems, billions of people have jobs/few and starving. In communist systems, millions are starving/few have jobs...

Now, exactly why should we get rid of private property?

Kenny, you're a fucking fly. You're buzzing around and being obnoxious. But that's it. You think you have some argument that is outstanding? Some flaw in capitalism no one else has seen? Some fucking thought that is original? Some way to stimulate growth in an original way? Do tell.

I thought I said I don't want them (Groenlinks) to tax private cars even more than currently, which is far more than in surrounding countries including UK where for example fuel prices are 18% lower.

I already killed myself for street cred once so I don't think I'd be interested in a new clear meltdown. Maybe if they gave me a malt. But it might be a malt down then

I never said I don't like globalization, just that free trade should be actually free, not benefit some and hurt others, or benefit some under a guise. What you call "free trade" I call exploitation and slavery. You wanna lift people out of poverty, pay them what you would pay them in your own country. Where is your nobility?

If you really cared you wouldn't be calling me a fly, so you can fuck right off. I actually believe in intellectual property.

This is great. Is that 3 down? I win. 3 nerds down. Get them some ice, everybody.


Posted by Trance-M on Mar-20-2017 21:59:

I'm down too in 10 minutes, down to bed.


Posted by Lews on Mar-20-2017 22:03:

So in a country where the average wage is $2 we should pay people $15 because that's what they'd get in the States? Forgive me for asking, but, uh, Why?

Who does free trade hurt? The producers, getting double the average local wage? Or the consumers on the other end, getting goods for 30% less?

For the record, my nobility is far in the mediaeval past, but that's neither here nor there

What should I care about, to make me not call you a fly? You're going to need to finish that sentence there.

You believe in intellectual property? Sorry, old man, but that's private property. Can't have any of that around here!

Lol you've made quite convoluted mess there, idiot. 25 is old? Cool. I'm old.


Posted by SYSTEM-J on Mar-20-2017 22:12:

It was all over bar the shouting about thirty posts ago when I took your argument apart like a cheap watch, old chum. Although really, the credit should go to PKC on this one. All the spade work was his.


Posted by wotyzoid on Mar-20-2017 22:27:

PFF, you go should all step into a walk-in freezer and jerk each other off, or whatever it is you guys do, to alleviate that burn.


Posted by wotyzoid on Mar-20-2017 22:29:

Roasted. Again.


Posted by planetaryplayer on Mar-20-2017 22:35:

I have the most credibility and contribute the most to these boards

Paul's surprisingly efficient, when not being overly vegan or sucking too much Australian bird cock.

Isn't that right, PKC?

Come, now, Kenny; we're all dying for your stunning riposte.


Posted by wotyzoid on Mar-20-2017 23:19:

Lol riposte to what? That horrendous diatribe? You're all just reaching for the wind at this point.

exposed!


Go get some aloe vera for that burn.

I say Jack is the one in the middle and Lews is the chubby one.

What is it with Green parties in Europe having no economists at all?

I remember the British greens also had quite a few infeasible proposals, and it was just nuts. I find it weird because Green parties here in Brazil tend to be made up of centrists (slightly left-of-centre at best), so I'm always astonished by these things.


Posted by Lews on Mar-20-2017 23:25:

Several years ago, at Oxford, someone much cleverer than you told me that I acted and dressed like I had been rich and boring for centuries. I responded, with full honesty, that that was one of the more amusing comments I had ever heard, and promptly split with the russkie a bottle of exceptionally good amontillado (no Poe allusions intended).

Now, Kenny, please do get back to responding to my questions of your economic solution to climate change. If you can. Or do you wish to simply keep reciting the word 'burn,' like a child?

Didn't you hear, Lira? We're all sick of experts!


Posted by wotyzoid on Mar-20-2017 23:38:

Why should I? You're just gonna keep asking me questions of how I would fix the world? I think I've covered enough for these past 4 days, you can fuck off to your amontillado.

No, you're all just faggots and dicks.




Posted by Lews on Mar-20-2017 23:39:

Heh, you're a little bit of a bitch, aren't you?


Posted by wotyzoid on Mar-20-2017 23:41:

Go get some ice, kid.


Posted by Lews on Mar-20-2017 23:46:

Oh, I already have some, don't worry, I used it to make another martini.
