P.S. Gentlemen, it's laissez-faire.

 

Apologies,

 

Please excuse my laisez french.

[hugo]

I wasn't saying that Sudan was Laisez-Faire you cum rag, but your comment that the Market will punish the idiots and help to good is entirly laisez-faire capitalism.

 

And although the government of Sudan is stated as wanting to implement such programs of aid to its people they simply don't have resources. If the global capitalist system, which is about laisez-faire as you'll find, and functions almost entirly as you would so like, without government regulation that is, then it would seem that the poverty crises we see in afirca is because they're all a bunch of lazy slackers who can't pull their own weight and their deaths are the result of the markjet rebalencing.

 

What a moron. The global system is nowhere close to a free market environment. Under laissez-faire there would be no tariffs, no subsidies and no need for trade agreements. Why don't you go to Moscow and turn Lenin over and continue kissing his ass.

Tarriffs huh, except the fucking World trade Organization. NAFTA (which although The US is aprart, they rufuse to stop putting tarriffs on Canadian Lumber, BS) and well, pretty much the entire global trade system. Thats one of the big arguments against globalization is that if you want to be part of the global economy you have to drop like all tarriffs and you can't PASS LEGISLATION that would interfer with another country's trade (Ending the right of nations to make their own choices).

 

Following the WW2 the many countries signed onto GATT (The General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade) which was designed to cut off border barriers and tariffs on trade, and worked rather well for its major players until the Uruguay Round and the formation of the WTO. Although there is no total law for WTO members, individual countries listed their commitments in schedules annexed to Marrakesh Protocol to the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade in 1994. This is the legally binding agreement for the reduced tariff rates. Since then, additional commitments were made under the 1997 Information Technology .

 

Regardless, this has little to do with the topic at hand so let just go back at it..... You were in the midst of parading your ignorence? Do go on..

Good thing you spelled out the acronyms, or else I don't think that hugo would have gotten it.

 

So, it's been roughly 9 hours. Hugo, where are you? The rebuttle? C'mooon.

 

CES, I think you're right. Hugo has never had a good argument. He is simply Invalid (ie. Movie: Gattaca, which, by the way, is good. Rent it if you've never seen it)

Well, at least you could spell the word. There is no totally free market anywhere. The very fact there are treaties proves that. With a totally free market I could trade with some dumb chink in China without government interference as easily as I can my next door neighbor. Of course, we are way off topic. The fact is any idiot knows that all things else being equal a child is better off with two loving and caring parents than one. I would go on about the need to ensure property rights in order to maximize liberty and economic activity but I am sure a thief , like yourself, would find respecting the property of others as an invalid concept.

I'm not the one who voted for Bush twice. Nor the one who blew the most important decision of his life..who he chose to marry and have children with.

Excuse me but who was there to vote for? Gore? Kerry? Bush was the lesser of the three stooges? But then again, I guess I could always have voted for Nader

Forget the shrub. You, Hugo-a-gogo have repeatedly posted your angst at being in a troubled relationship, verbosely espoused your hatred and fear of women in general, sympathising with those in unsteady relationships, and now you choose to torment those who have wised up and decided that living solo is just fine and dandy. Like I said before; you are a troll.

 

Need I dredge up your own words to back this claim?

You obviously do not have a clue. Next you will be claiming I worship the Great Ghoombah. I have a wonderful wife who I have been married to for 25 years. I did not fuck up the biggest decision of my life. I suggest CES look at the Libertarian Party. You are an idiot who actually believes DU is more harmful than lead.

[builder]

Oh, I have more than a clue.

 

It was you who proclaimed that marriage is a form of torture? It was you?

 

Hugo is about as happy in marriage as a cur whipped to within an inch of its life. Do you want me to post your words, hugo?

 

I'll give you the day to go back and erase them.

It'd be much more interesting if you posted them

I'm a firm believer in giving them enough rope, Angie.

 

I'm not about to discredit Hugo. He's doing a fine and dandy job off his own bat.

You are a fucking dolt. LONG ago here, B.H. (before Hugo) I publicly stated that I had registered as a Libertarian, but I don't swallow their political spin on everything and in fact, some of their ideas are just stupid as hell. Bottom line is I think for myself, issue by issue.

 

Married 25 years. Good for you. How many children you bring forth and raise in those perfect and holy 25 years?

 

I assume that given your sanctimonious attitude, that you've never ever dipped your wick anywhere but at home for 25 years, including any activities Bill Clinton would not call sexual relations? Not even a tittie club I bet; Eh Mr. Perfect?

Sadly, that whole thread consisted almost entirely of personal rubbish stories and little on the socioeconomic effects of the bastardization of America.

 

So is this one.
