Quote from: chuckjames on February 06, 2016, 12:10:07 PMWhere did I say I'm a socialist? I believe in the power of the free market and capitalism, but I think the power of capitalism needs to be reigned in by government or else it will be abused by man.Why is govt better qualified than the marketplace to reign-in capitalism? As proven by the last 100 years, govt just starts picking winners and losers and making itself more powerful.

Ala the robber baron era of the late 19th century..early 20th century?Pssst. You just described what happens in socialist paradises. No middle class. A few rich, and a lotta poor.Pssst. It also happens to be the natural endgame of laissez faire Capitalism, because of economies of scale and such.ok bub. You just keep believing that capitalism wasn't responsible for the greatest economy and standard of living in the history of the world - and that socialism has a better track record on that score.

'Lemy, are cigarettes bad for you? Or is that just another lawyer/ special groups conspiracy to control the market place?
Quote from: chuckjames on February 06, 2016, 01:31:10 PM'Lemy, are cigarettes bad for you? Or is that just another lawyer/ special groups conspiracy to control the market place?75% of HEAVY smokers never get lung cancer.
Cigarettes don't kill people, people kill people.
Is lead bad for you? Or is that also a just a government conspiracy to take over the market?
Quote from: chuckjames on February 06, 2016, 01:47:29 PMIs lead bad for you? Or is that also a just a government conspiracy to take over the market?If you consume lead, it is bad for you. However, the benefits of lead far, far outweigh the detriments.
Ok..since I finally got you to admit something might be bad for a human, a company that dumps lead into a river upstream to produce their awesome lead products, doesn't owe the people downstream anything?
