    So you want force to be used to stop people from getting things that you don't think they've "earned"?

    They do at the moment. Perhaps they'll be smart enough to understand that the money they give to feed, cloth etc... the "lazy fucks" isn't going to other more essential activities... and then they'll realise that not having money will allow the "lazy fucks" to get what they were going to get anyway, as well as, not instead of like in the current financial economy, that they will also get the essential services as there is no budget constraint to prevent those essential services from being implemented. In other words, win win.

    Then again, you'd need the "lazy fuck" thinkers to understand that they're actually gonna gain from removing money. Logic, reason and common sense. Although they may just remain pious cunts and bite their noses off to spite their own faces. Simple choice really.

    Well the way I see it is that there are no handouts in the RBE system.

    An individual who didn't contribute would very quickly be ostricised to the point that they were forced to either conform to the idea of combined conscience or starve.

    (I may be wrong - I'm not an RBE scholar).

    Aye, no need for handouts as everything's free.

    Not necessarily true. Yup "freeloaders" will be easier to spot, but they'll also be able to travel wherever they like and therefore being ostracised won't have the impact desired. Fortunately the education system and surrounding social system of an RBE will have instilled better values in the younger members of society.

    Simply accept that some people won't work. In fact consider that 10/20 years down the track automation will be such that there'll barely be any manual jobs left. The financial economy wants to solve that with a UBI. You know, Communism.

    (not wrong, just a lack of thought in regards to how easy it will be to do nothing and not get caught lol)

    Have you not managed to figure out yet that while competition may well result in excellence it can just as easily result in corruption?

    Did I not say in a previous post that under both systems one cow someone will miss out,??

    Though when using scarcity and money ... one giving up the steak has little choice ..unless they get more money than the other . Me me me

    In the other system one chooses to give up me steak ... for you you you

    Now one wonders which one is the better system

    So it does.

    So where the fuck are those links you claim I’ve posted before?

    Actually, don’t bother, you’ve just demonstrated you’re not actually capable of following your own instructions let alone conduct any sort of coherent discourse.

    Yeah but the money/tax system seperates us out from that. With mashmans system that will be reversed people that will seem to live the high life will be the ones who choose to live like that because they do fuck all. The work/reward system would be all ass about face.

    I rather suspect that like most people he'd like force used to stop other people getting things HE's earned.

    In spite of which, like most people he probably gives about a third of HIS earnings to other people.

    Indeedy you did, repeatedly, and with great clarity. Option 3... if it were I that had a steak... I'd have it cut in half and share it with someone who otherwise wouldn't have gotten any. There's usually more than enough so long as you're not a greedy arsehole i.e. no you, no me, just us.

    No, no, communism is where someone else takes everything you've earned and gives it to everyone else.

    At least, bad as it is that's what it says on the packet.

    In practice communism takes everything everyone earns and gives it to nobody.

    Not quite correct. The reward will have changed. If we don't work, yes I include me coming out of retirement, then none of us get anything because no one will produce anything. I'd love to know how people not working will be able to live much more of a high life than they already do? What are you going to lose? or is it just the principle of the thing and to hell with the consequences of what that system produces as outcomes? ya know, why would you prefer to cut your, and everyone else in the country's, nose off to spite your, our, face? I have an insult prepared and I want to use it

    Sounds like the taxation system. Yup, Communism.

    I understand Communism fine thanks. Gunpoint never suited, so I went for RBE instead which gives rise to open source economics and completely free markets. Something I know you'd like to see, but you want it to work using money, and by the sounds of things guns too
