  1. I only used McDonald's as an example. In a true free-market we'd be prosperous and McDonald's jobs would only be for kids in Highschool (learning to work). Which is how it was As it is, we live in a fascist corporatacracy state. With a banking cartel controls the value of our labor. Bureaucrats have more control over us than kings. And an out of control military. As for me, I teach medical doctors advanced human physiology. I've lived in 4 countries. I grew up in a trailer on welfare.

  2. This is a really really bad analogy. Staples does put a lot of mom and pop stores out of business and frees those people up to create other services. I do agree the homogeneous society we have is more prone to downturns and is athletically unpleasing - I'd argue this is a problem of unified currency.

  3. To be productive in another manner. That could be working at McDonald's making a burger or it could be starting Apple Incorporated. That's how society progress. Progress means that jobs must be destroyed. Like horse wipe makers. They simply don't exist any longer. Or farm equipment - 150 years ago 95% of Americans worked the land, now less than 3% do. A LOT of people lost their jobs due to farm equipment. This is GOOD for the economy - if you want to prosper as a society. Email = bye bye mail.

  4. Well Well, your use of all CAPS really made the case! Thanks for applying a logical and rational counter argument.

  5. free markets must exist BEFORE governments. You can't have unproductive individuals until AFTER capital is acquired - which requires a freely made trade. "Yes and no. Fascism is capitalism when it got cancer and ready to die." I don't the cancer analogy in this instance. Could you explain your point of view again?
