    Sounds like more bullshit to me.
    I've posted it before elsewhere, and tbh can't be fucked finding it again.

    Who but the owner dictates who owns what?

    In the same way there's no such thing as 0% or 100%, yes.

    "a one-off levy last year on 2011 incomes for households with assets of more than 1.3 million euros"

    Don't bother, it probably represents about as much relevance as the +100% tax thing.

    The law. But you go rant some more about thieving justice departments, it must be very therapeutic.

    No, no I'm afraid "no money" does indeed mean "no budget". Fuck all to do with %.

    And you don't hardly need a brain to figure that.... oh wait...

    Not really, just explaining who the real owners of stuff are... and it ain't us whether you like it or not.

    If you say so.

    P.S. Doesn't matter what you call it, it's all state owned.

    If you say so.

    Well, socialism.

    Again, the owners aren't who the law says they are?

    And you've proved this all before but now can't be fucked?

    Right.

    So, If I choose to work (and not stand around in Line) then I miss out on things that I want. If I don't work, I get to stand around inline for things I want - really selling me on the Utopian Dream.

    Thus providing even less incentive for me to work....

    Also I'm reminded of Stories (don't have the source) of African Warlords using people to stand in line when Free Aid is handed out, stockpiling it, and then either selling it, or using it as leverage to get people to do there bidding. I'm also reminded Spivs during Rationing in WW2.

    As I said - non monetary corruption can be a dangerous and fickle beast.

    What happens when you get excellence AND corruption?

    Does it, by virtue of coming from a Corrupt source, Diminish it's excellence?

    I mean this in a non sporting manner - suppose that there was a human acheivement - First Manned mission to Mars (hypothetically) - and it all went perfectly, and it transpires that the company that did something pretty critical won the contract by Corruption.

    Where does your moral compass point? Mine, if the results are good, then end justified the means - and I'm happy. What does your outlook say?

    Much better description, glad you brought it up so I can slip out of TDL mode.

    No. Not if laws can be ignored or overridden... which they most definitely can.

    I suppose for that plan to work you have to be the one who writes the history.

    George Bush" the coalition of the willing ( aka us and the Brit poodles) get rid of Saddam, everyone loves us and all my cronies make some cash...what can possibly go wrong ..win win no"

    Worked for dubya dubya 2 as the Victors wrote the history.
    DeMyer's Laws - an argument that consists primarily of rambling quotes isn't worth bothering with.
