Sure. You do realize that calling the person who gave us the Bill of Rights "comrade" is ironic, right?

Like the CEO of that company WeWork

From WSJ:
"Neumann would receive close to $1.7 billion from stakeholder SoftBank for stepping down from WeWork's board"

As long as SoftBank and Neumann both made this exchange freely and without coercion, what business is it of ours?

Most economists are dressed up sociologists. And most of them are broke.

I am calling you comrade...

Your schtick is old, tired and worn out... Sucks you must not own property and let me guess, it is because someone else already owns the property you want and you do not have the money to purchase it from them...

You highlighted the words "common stock" from a direct quote of John Locke and called me a comrade for that.

If that’s the case he should just adhere to what Adam Smith preached, put in more labor to generate more value, and earn enough money to buy it.

Or develop a military and take it.

So I'm guessing you don't believe in supply and demand?


I believe in supply and demand. Products and services should be provided based on the demand for them.

I have no issue with some things left to the market like: entertainment, hobbies and collectibles, but food, clothing, shelter, health care cannot be solely left to the market.

If you want to eat steak and lobster then fine. But we can have market driven steak and lobster and still have enough for every to eat healthy food.

Do you support politicians making $200k/year + benefits for life?




Depends. If you want the best people in government both civil service and political appointments you need to pay a living wage.

Want to make a lady Bernie supporter's head explode?

Remind them they are arguing for non-consensual economics.
