You directly accused them of fraud whether you used the word or not. Do you, or do you not, believe that banks lie to customers to gain their business?

why is someone who is not a libertarian, telling some who is to read "the mother of libertarianism". u con't to do nothing more then twist what others say in an attempt to prove them wrong, and never address points others make to u. guess what pal, there is no 'proving' political beliefs. i grow tired of this, it's like arguing with my ex. nothing of value is ever said and the conversation just goes in circles.

ChuangTzu said: The constitution lists only a few specific things that the federal government cannot do.
Exactly.
Quote:
ChuangTzu said: It does clearly state, however, that the powers of the federal government are enumerated and that any powers not granted to the federal government by the constitution are powers reserved to the states and the people.
Article one, Section eight, "Powers of Congress" states that the Congress shall have the power to provide for the general welfare of the United States.
Quote:
ChuangTzu said: My point was mainly that the federal government can't do whatever the people want whether they have a majority or not--not without changing the constitution at least.
They can do exactly what you specifically said they can't.
Quote:
You twisted my words. Please show me where I said a company should pay anyone MORE than what someone is worth.
Quote:
ChuangTzu said: You didn't directly say that a company should pay someone more than someone is worth, you merely re-defined "worth" to suit your purposes
No, I didn't "re-define" worth. I simply stated my opinion of worth.
-------------------- I am in a minority on the shroomery, as I frequently defend the opposing side when they have a point about something or when my side make believes something about them. I also attack my side if I think they're wrong. People here get very confused by that and think it means I prefer the other side.

If my words did glow with the gold of sunshine And my tunes were played on the harp unstrung, Would you hear my voice come thru the music, Would you hold it near as it were your own?
It's a hand-me-down, the thoughts are broken, Perhaps they're better left unsung. I don't know, don't really care Let there be songs to fill the air.
Ripple in still water, When there is no pebble tossed, Nor wind to blow.
Reach out your hand if your cup be empty, If your cup is full may it be again, Let it be known there is a fountain, That was not made by the hands of men.
There is a road, no simple highway, Between the dawn and the dark of night, And if you go no one may follow, That path is for your steps alone.
Ripple in still water, When there is no pebble tossed, Nor wind to blow.
But if you fall you fall alone, If you should stand then who's to guide you? If i knew the way i would take you home.

THANK YOU Chuang, meams and zappa, we should get Falcon and Shroomy a pacifier and a spit rag, and we also need a dumbed down version of Mother Suess for these guys, just in case they cannot understand the words clearly written on the paper.
I made this comment implying that you were childish, and needed a dumbed down version to make sure you understood it, like the home loans you want.
Please show me where this is clearly written in the constitution that it is not allowed. I'm going to keep asking until I get an answer.
I do not agree with our constitution on many things, however, if you want to use the reasoning that it does not specifically forbid it then it is ok, then you should be ok with having consentual sex with a twelve year old, since it is not explicitly banned. Our government is not a proper one either, not even close.
Edit: I'm NOT agreeing the Government should bail homeowners out. I'm simply asking where in the constitution this would be illegal.

You said that McDonalds should have paid you $10 an hour, that was more than you were worth to them.

Yes, actually you did:

closed veil said: i say again, the term for someone who use unethical means and lies to take money from someone is a con-man. this is what they do, and they do it well. if you don't think it's unethical to fool someone out of their money, think about it form another point of view: what if u bought drugs from someone, and the drugs turned out to be bunk?
Quote:
closed veil said: why didn't u bold the word fraud in my quote? oh right, because it's not in there.
Synonyms, Thesaurus & Antonyms of 'lie' English Synonyms and Antonyms
1. lie Deceit is the habit, deception the act; guile applies to the disposition out of which deceit and deception grow, and also to their actual practise. A lie, lying, or falsehood Synonyms: deception, craft, dissimulation, finesse, lie, cunning, double-dealing, FRAUD, lying, deceit, duplicity, guile, prevarication, deceitfulness, fabrication, hypocrisy, trickery, delusion, falsehood, imposition, untruth Also, instead of using my quote about our military will you use my line about how I would not trade my last dollar for a million lives?
I think this is what you asked for. I am flattered you used my words for a signature though.

I laughed when I read your statement that she is the mother of libertarians, she would roll in her grave if she could hear that now. You obviously have never spent a day reading an of her philosophic works. I have twisted nothing, if I did then could you please show me so that I can be proven wrong? I am not asking you to prove any political belief, I would like to be disproven in any statement I have said.

Wow you stil do not understand that money is a direct extension of ones life. D o you not trade your life for dollars when you go to work? I am simply breaking it down to its simplest form for you. I care more about my own life than strangers. That is what you need to understand. Also, please give me a single example of the United States military invading another country for its mineral rights, or personal exploitation. I am pretty sure I read quite a bit more about history than most people, I cannot for the life of me find one example of this. Either way, you can put that in my rating as well, I am proud to choose my life over anothers that I do not know.

I never said that you used the word forced, I said that no one forced a person to get a loan they could not afford. That would be the only way a person lending money to another could be unethical. The only people whom have said that I twist or make up things are those of you who cannot and will not defend the statements you have made when called on them. Logic and reason are a bitch are they not? When you can not flimflam your way out you revert to name calling and your twisting argument, like saying that lying to someone is not fraud, arguing semantics is pointless, a lie is fraud by definition. I like this debate, it gives me something to do at night while I wait on the morning to come so I can do some work.

i will say this one more time:
1. i feel the risky loans the banks engaged in was unethical. if you don't agree, we simply have different ethics. 2. the ppl who signed mortgages are feeling the full brunt of the recession, while many of the banks got bailed out, even tho each party is equally responsible. 3. i can't "prove" my ethics any more then any of you can. it is like asking me to prove my faith, or my love. impossible. ethics are a belief, a feeling, nothing that can be proven. 4. PileusSonofGalt, i feel your answers are weak and flawed, just as you seem to think the same way of mine.

Have you not previously stated that the bailouts were needed? You said that it was necassary, then you asked where in the constitution that it expressly forbid this, implying that since it was not there that it was ok. Hence, you think that if it is not in the constitution that it is ok.. I am simply taking your statement to its logical end. How is this TWISTING?
