    Marxism 101.

    And for the record - more could be done to achieve Equity of Opportunity - only today in fact I was discussing with a Teacher friend of mine about Teaching - and he cited a study that showed the biggest factor on a Childs' academic performance was how much their parents made during the school year.

    I'll even stand with you on that and say that's wrong, and we could and should do better.

    But by trying to enforce equity of outcome as a solution (which is by proxy, whether you admit it or see it, what you are doing) - This I cannot abide by, because it takes away an individuals choice.

    But seeing as we are talking about being owned by Children - my 18 month old has realised that if she wants to play with a toy in one part of the room (that she can't move) and she wants to play with a different toy in another part of the room, then she has to choose - she understands the basic concept of Scarcity and loss of oppertunity - so How about that, getting your arse handed to you by a Toddler?
    You didn't. I get to state what constitutes an acceptable answer, because I Am the one who understands RBE, and you don't. You've had the 13yr old give you an answer as an example... yet you've 11th marbled that too.

    So when farmers decide that they can work 2 hours a day by limiting the amount of produce they produce, you'll be happy with dying? You really don't think your examples through very well... or does your toddler provide your ideas for you too.

    I don't get paid for this - Like all the Conspiracy threads, I'm still waiting on my Cheque from Tel-Aviv, the NWO, The Rockerfellers, Big Pharma, The airline industry etc.

    Till then, I'm just an incredibly gifted amateur.

    Yes, we can all make scenarios with rules that don't resemble reality - just like you haven't posted an Answer to my Steak problem.

    Which is exactly what will happen in an RBE - I'm glad you are NOW seeing the problem with your Faith.

    Enforce equity? You're gonna have to explain why equity is going to be enforced? Ironically enough, competition is enforced by the capitalist system, consequences be damned. But no, RBE will not require force for there to be equity.

    People have the choice to compete and to what degree they want to Compete - and you know what Competition breeds? Excellence.

    Also works very well for Nature too, Evolution by means of Natural selection, survival of the fittest.

    It will take away my personal choice (unless you can answer the Riddle of Steel, I mean Steak, the Riddle of Steak) - and it can only do that by Force.

    I answered your steak question rather thoroughly... even provided an example of the lack of scarcity you were referring to. It was real life, not a made up scenario.

    No they don't... and I've had conversations with the commerce commission in regards to legislation that forces people to compete. It's not a choice to not compete, coz those competing get pissy that they can't compete. Tragically ironic, but that's the way it works boy.

    I answered the steak question. There is no steak scarcity given that supermarkets are throwing them out before they go off and some country's are legislating that that shouldn't be allowed. That steaks won't need to be thrown out under RBE, given that people can walk into the supermarket and simply pick them up instead of dumpster diving for the same steak later. So the financial economy is forcing supermarkets to change their behaviour.

    I've never posted either of those links before.

    I can find and post more explaining economics in terms of physical laws if you want.

    Or you could just fuck off and sit in the corner with the pointy hat for a while.
    Go soothingly on the grease mud, as there lurks the skid demon
