what "too big to fail" should mean is not that we as a country can't
afford to let them fail, but that there's so much moneys tied up in the
company, that if it fails it should be easy to see Who needs to be prosecuted
if there is fraud there. (or other illegible activity)

The rule used to be that the share holders got their money first, before
any so-called exit packages and such.
I didn't know that changed until it it happened.

Too big to fail is a scare tactic.

Somebody, or a group of them, would have scooped up GM. It would
never have gone under.

That is the fundamental aspect of
your prized marxism.

wow you really couldn't keep that out of there could you? well, i guess that is how it could look to someone who is illiterate in terms of culture and economics.

I've yet to hear a TEA party participant say Wall St is too big.
That BofA is too big. That Dodge deserved the money. That we
need to give welfare to individuals or monoliths. Most support the
FAIR tax over what we have now. They don't want the crap that
currently exists.

are so naive that you don't understand that there are different forms of critique and asserting social distance i.e. that group X is NOT ME, because they do not share my values...?

nope, apparently not.

you're totally stuck on one particular area. a technical disagreement on the role of gov't. yeah otherwise the tea party guys in their soiled blue collars and wall street guys in lame-assed blue suits are kissing in the sunshine.

maybe you do need the gov to choose a new light bulb fer ya. you seem to be using a pretty dim one right now.

I still propose for you to explain where I'm wrong. You always says I don't get it but I take a man at his word & those are, esentially, his words.

What the fuck are you talkling about? You assert that the TEA party is against big business. They're not. If you have somethign I haven't seen that backs up your statemetn, please, present it. Otherwise, get out of Seattle ,

are you daft?

"your prized marxism."

i do not think marxism is a prize.

but apparently you've now taken this to a broader discussion about all the times you've mis-applied various terms. and in that case, you've made it your business to retain an attachment to black-and-white judgments... based on very nominal arguments. of course you don't even understand the inherent conflict in that. shit, you've used SO MANY WORDS like "marxist" i'm starting to think, by your own logic, that YOU are a marxist.

and if you don't understand the disconnect between them fast-talkin' wall street elites and dumbshit populism, well, you're bloody hopeless.

so just go ahead and mentally lolly-gag down the yellow brick road, with your tiny little bag of childish symbols...

I invite you to show me where I was wrong. You can't do it. Otherwise, you would have. I'm clear on the communist idea. I don't propose to soften the language any more than necessary so I call a pot a pot.

I couldn't go more than a couple of minutes but that guy is not one of the Wall St oppresssed children of middle management fathers who get stoned & protest. Protest what? Hell, they have no clue. Today the unions joined them.

What is their demand? The useful idiots haven't a clue. The backers are looking for instability. Free kollege costs huh?

I'm not defending the demands ResearchMonkey posted, however, there are people with legit concerns such as the one posted. Too bad you did not finish.

i already have told you how you are wrong. you just can't understand it because in your tiny world words have one meaning and no context... among other reasons... such as the sad torpor of childish idealism.

several times you've excused yourself from actually learning anything about the topics you grandstand on. there is nothing anyone can do. you are stuck. in many, many ways.

my views were very close to your views at about the time that i finished high school. then i learned a few things. you didn't. i am no longer subject to your irrational faith.

Aren't you special

Communism isn't about government ownership
Socialism isn't about government control through regulation
Progressivism doesn't really exist
The Constitution is outdated
and you read stuff like "Innovation Systems in a Global Context: The North American Experience "...more overeducated fools trying to impress one another with their superspecial thinking ability.

You can keep your college degree. I'll take my learning from the real world, thanks.

nobody peed in the pool.

it is a perfect place, where words have single, crisp, and clear meanings, and, most importantly, where the bad people aren't allowed. there's only one way of getting kicked out... by biting the apple of knowledge.

Man, it must be tough to communicate in a world where everything is fluid & has no substance. Now I can see why you're confused so often.

yes to me everything is absolutely a giant mish mash of random shit. that's why i'm asking you to be more precise.
