clearly, so why are you telling me to shut up, essentially?


No I am asking you to write whatever point you were trying to make in a more concise manner. Are you drunk?




no, i'm not. i'm telling you why eventual arguments will always have a circular reasoning or slippery slope, and/or an infinite regress. if YOU'D read my post again, maybe more carefully, you'd see that i was using Zappa as an example of this.



No eventually arguments will not have slippery slope fallacies unless the author intentionally puts them in to incite fear mongering to make people think his argument is right. Read up that link on what the slippery slope fallacy is.


could you stop pompously telling me what to do? i know what the slipper slope is. have you heard of the Münchhausen trilemma?

I have no issue with that. Corporate chains have the funds, and more importantly a standardized menu, where something like this could be feasibly implemented.


Agreed - especially since in some states in the US it's mandatory and the vast majority of these chains are active in both countries, and most of these companies have nutritional information calculated anyway.

It would be nice to have nutritional information for all restaurants but it would pose too much of an economical hardship on small restaurants so it's not worth it.

It is not an irrational decision for a healthy young male to choose not to buy health insurance.  It is irrational for him to do so.  No balls no glory.  A healthy young male's money is far better allocated elsewhere


That's a pretty despicable position - if anything happens to the young healthy male, eg: an accident (which happens to young healthy males) they will be financially ruined. You are telling them to forgo that insurance knowing you won't be around to help them when something happens, all so you can have more money at the end of the day. :shakehead:

I am fine with the compassionate route of providing public health care to all even if it means less money for me personally.

That is very true. If he wasn't mayor of my city it would be a lot funnier. It's kind of like having comic relief.

Regardless of how inexpensive it might be? It's not like "healthy" young males are immune to spectacularly expensive accidental injuries.

Yeah, I suppose my city has a cute lil rivalry with yours. So it's probably funnier than it should be. Well, there are Ford shirts being sold in my mall I bought one . It could always be worse.:ducklol:

Münchhausen trilemma shows that when someone is trying to "pull oneself and the horse on which one's sitting sitting out of a swamp by one's own hair" as the saying goes, that they're argument for said escape boils down to three distinct logical fallacies in argument.

if you understand this concept, then you should understand what i meant by someone "continuously bombarded with retorts and proclamations about facetious arguments" being an endless "logical hole" in and of itself.

So?  What does that have to do with rational decisions on your own finances?  Do you need your hand held through everything?  I was a young male and I wanted to opt out and use the money otherwise.  It was the right choice.  Shouldn't people have the right to choose their own level of risk?  Why do you feel the need for a perpetual womb?

Forcing people to buy shit for other people is not compassionate.  It is thuggery.

You must certainly are telling other people what to do.  Because of the cost to society.  You are essentially a totalitarian.

God knows most of us are too fat to do it anywhere else.

So?  So many wimps with no balls.  Do you know the best way to avoid catastrophic losses as a young healthy male?  Don't ride a motorcycle.
