The quality of discussion has dropped dramatically.
The art of war, then, is governed by five constant
factors, to be taken into account in one's deliberations,
when seeking to determine the conditions obtaining in the field.
These are: (1) The Moral Law; (2) Heaven; (3) Earth;
(4) The Commander; (5) Method and discipline.

You realize that people have been saying that since Q.T.Cicero's time...and probably before.Originally Posted by Myth
"The only way that has ever been discovered to have a lot of people cooperate together voluntarily is through the free market. And that's why it's so essential to preserving individual freedom.” -- Milton Friedman
"The urge to save humanity is almost always a false front for the urge to rule." -- H. L. Mencken
Re: Wealth distribution
HoreTore thinks just because it is the way it has always been done that it is the only way things should be done. Either that or he fears someone might find a conspiracy somewhere in the material.
But it is not the way it has always been done.
There are several alternatives to who controls the money supply.
The topic was Wealth Distribution and how to equalize it. It is hard to discuss that without addressing the mechanics of fractional reserve banking.
All money systems have pitfalls.
Rather than learn about the alternatives he would much rather attack the source without knowing what is in it.
Of course it is beneath his great wisdom…
Governments taking control of the money system is not the worst alternative.
In fact it is how most people believe money is created.
But rather than discuss inequities and alternatives, he would rather see people searching for conspiracy.
He seems to have intellectually crippled himself by trying to stay in what he believes is “The Main Stream”. How very conservative!

Re: Wealth distribution
I try to stay in the realm of sanity, away from theories pushed by new age hippies with neither education nor qualifications.
If you're going to take apart the monetary system, I do expect a certain level of actual knowledge. Failed art classes and TV-jobs doesn't quite cut it.

But you really wouldn’t know, as you merely found it astatically displeasing and didn’t watch.

Re: Wealth distribution
No, I didn't watch it, as I hate youtube movies with a passion. I have, however, read the "theory" in written form in its many variations, and I highly doubt an old hippie will offer anything new.
The conclusion remains the same: it's nonsense from the clueless.

Re: Wealth distribution
I am sure there are those who would say the same of your teaching methods.
But they likely think they already know everything and there is no need to go over the material.
Very enlightened attitude, huh?

Was that when he complained about brother Marcus's love of hearing his own voice?
