- Earmarks are bad, except in my district!
- Government spending can't create jobs, except in my district!
This was not trollish.
Remember the Republican mottos, kids:
This was.
Using facts and truth does not make you not a troll if you do so in a trollish way.
If your options are:
1. Don't restrict things and punish those that break the law after they've broken it.
2. Restrict things only for those that would use them in a way that would break the law.
3. Restrict things for everybody, even those who don't need the restriction.
The only viable option is option one. Two was stated by you to be impossible and three is repugnant.
I have absolutely no problem with higher taxes for more benefits.
My only problem comes from taxing the same money twice. I find that to be kind of ridiculous.
Wealth tax? Really?
So if i make 100 dollars I pay an income tax on that 100 dollars. No problem.
Then I put the remaining 75 dollars in the bank.
Then I get taxed on the 75 dollar balance that I already paid taxes on? Wow, that's ridiculous.
Tax on dividends? No problem, it's additional income.
Tax on money I've already been taxed on? Fucked.
I in fact do think that screaming fire at the back of a crowded theater should be free speech. And if people were injured because of that, or if property was damaged because of it, I should be held liable.
However I should not be liable if someone in the theater decided to commit suicide in the theater rather than try to exit it.
There is a difference between my actions causing the death of another through accident, or mishap, etc., and someone deciding that it's easier to kill themselves rather than deal with name calling or other harassment.
In the movie theater example my actions caused a panic and that panic caused bad things to happen. I should be held responsible for that panic.
In the harassment example my actions caused you to feel bad and have some emotional distress. I should not be responsible for your decision to off yourself.
If my harassment falls afoul of harassment laws then I should be punished for those offenses, but that is a far cry from being responsible for your death.
By the way, fantastic insults! I had to look up homunculous.
Not really.
Calling someone a name is not the same as stating a false fact about somebody.
If I said somebody liked to wear ladies shoes and that was not true then it would be libelous.
Calling someone a douche-bag would not be libelous, just rude.
Sorry, but if you kill yourself because I call you a fucking pansy I should not be held responsible for that act.
You killed yourself.
I did not kill you. I called you a name.
Last I checked name calling was legal.
And you know what, it always should be.
You fucking pansy.
I thought it was capitalist pigdogs
"Anonymous Cowards are the bravest souls in the universe!"
Just because it was written doesn't make it so.
I was talking about something a bit lower level than they were. If living were a right then how you kill anything to eat? It is that brocolli stalks right to live, how dare you kill it so that you can live?
The point is this, life is difficult, only those who try the hardest (or get really lucky) get to win. The sooner that people figure that out the better off they are.
Money is the root of all evil, and man needs roots.
