Quote from: "Paul St. John"Justify this to me. No quotes.. No stupid articles.. Use YOUR fucking brain! and justify YOUR chosen stance!
Paul
Paul, I am not sure what is your problem but I am not interested in engaging in verbal warfare. I started this thread with a article a friend of a friend emailed me. I even noted that it was confrontational.
I believe you wrote that you disagreed with the vulgarity, but agreed with the rest of it.. I replied, that your friend was an idiot.
I was trying to drum up conversation for a critical situation happening in America right now. The occupiers and just regular people protesting the unequal distribution of wealth in this country right now.
I did not believe that wealth was to be distributed. Wealth is not a given.. Wealth is created.. always has been.. Now, who are the slaves that we pick to produce it, so taht we have it to distribute, and which and who is all-knowing enough to choose how it is distributed, or perhaps, I should say "redistributed" , as it actually belongs to, whoever produces it.
On several threads I have expressed my opinions on this very subject. I just don't think I am so right that I want to go around and became overly excited about my opinions.
Well, if you don t think that you are RIGHT, then why WRITE, on your numerous threads, and elsewhere.
Good luck.
Right, as I help you refine your vision, with basic sensibility, because you have gotten it all figured out, and I am just a conditioned dolt.

Quote from: "Paul St. John"Quote from: "starry-eyed pirate"Quote from: "Paul St. John"Quote from: "starry-eyed pirate"regardless of the acidification of our oceans,
and the burning and clearing of the worlds rain forests, the degradation of air quality, or the toxification of the water table, the eradication of indigenous, sustainable cultures, and unique animal/plant species, etc. Is that what you mean to convey ?? I hope not.
Most of these things are WAY overstated by pseudo-scientists, and others who just do not know what they are talking ab out. As to the extent, to which there is some truth, progress always has issues along the way, and the only people who don t notice that are the people who do not do anything. We are always finding better ways to do things. It is very hard to be perfect all the time.. Of course, if you do absolutely nothing at all, yuo will make no mistakes, and it is very easy to critique those who do. the one specific thing I would actually like to address is about the sustainable, indigenous cultures. No one has killed them or anything, and it could be taken that way, the way you put it.
But all in all, I am not going to lie, I care more about people then about rain forests, oceans, or plant species.

Man you are really missin it.
What is the "it' that I am missing? Can you define it?

"It is well that the people of the nation do not understand are banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a REVOLUTION before tomorrow morning."
- Henry Ford
I'll agree that most people do not understand it. A revolution? maybe.. Maybe not. Perhaps, in Ford's day.. Of course today, there are some people who understand, and I do not see a revolution. Or could it even be possible that Henry Ford was just exaggerating to make a point? Or maybe even he was wrong? After all, he was one of the top one percent, and in your book, doesn t that automatically make him the enemy?
And of course, most importantly, I do not see how this addresses anything that I have wrote above, or anything that is of the topic of discussion.. I wonder.. do YOU even understand our banking/monetary, or are you just a fan of quotes?
I'll tell you what you resemble with this post, and pretty much every single post that you have written in the this thread- a person who has been indoctrinated by a cult or program, or a victim of brainwashing.
I identify and explain.. you shoot out silly nuggets that you use to support your ideas..
The reason you resemble this, and I am a bit sorry to tell you this.. is because operating in the exact same mode. You have been throughout all of our discussions. You are extremely closed-minded. You are like some kinda 99 percent true believer. Just because we want to believe something does not make it true.
"Only a fool would try to deprive working men and working women their right to join the union of their choice."
- Dwight D. Eisenhower
Well, if someone said it, then of course, there is no doubt that it must be fact. Do you agree with every word that Eisenhower has ever said?
Either way, I am not sure what this has anything to do with anything, you silly one.
As far as my personal view, it is a bit more complicated then just that, and if you really want to get into it, I will surely oblige.

Bloomberg is an excellent mayor?
Bullshit
This city will spent 25 years recovering from this douchebag.
Paul, I sense a lot of discontent here.
I am not clear on why exactly you would not get behind the 99% but hey, you have your right.
We can make change and will.
Maybe as you said it will not be now or in a few years but I will not stand by as we are marginalized by the greedy and all powerful.
I do believe in a person being able to build a company, flourish and reap the profits.
So long as the person knows they did not do it all by themselves. The country they are living in participated, greatly.
I understand the legality, the park is privately
owned and the owners had a rule no camping. .
Ignorant or apathetic? Or optimistic? Or comfortable with uncertainty... or just livin' in the moment?
While "nothing new under the sun" sounds boring, the point of that statement is that history is repeating itself and we are too ignorant to see it.
