Your claiming an aliance with the Butcher of Bagdad because you want to smoke some pot? If they took away my right to bear arms I might consider that slightly less than foolish.
That's is treason. What now, blow up some DEA buildings?

I disagree. Pain brings clarity, comfort bring sleepy lathargisism. As long as population continues to grow and resources dwindle there will never be world peace.

Isn't really the population, there's way more than enough food to feed everyone on earth many times over already. The problem is capitalism - meaning countries are run for short term profits as opposed to human needs. You either feed people or maximise profits.

This much is true, but your next statements are way off base...

In reply to:

Those are very ignorant statements. The countries with the greatest state control of their markets have the greatest difficulty feeding their populace. Care to compare the region which became known as the Soviet Union, before communism and after communism? Before communism (when it was more capitalistic) the region was a net grain exporter, after communism, it had to rely on the generosity and grain imports from the west (more capitalistic countries). Care to compare North Korea to South Korea?

Has it ever occured to you that if you're in the business of producing food stuffs, that one of the easiest way to maximaze profit is by getting your product to as many people as possible? Do you think it is in the best economic interests of food producers for people to starve, for their potential customers to die off? In the west, the problem isn't capitalism, it's statism. Governments hand out economic favors, interfere in the marketplace and pay food producers not to produce. They pay farmers to keep their fields fallow. This is not capitalism. In more socialist/communist countries, the governments take away the profit incentive so there is no point in producing more food. Why should a farmer labor from sun up to sun down, invest in capital improvements and labor saving devices only to have the government take away what it considers 'excess profits?' That stupid marxist maxim, 'from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs' does more to foster starvation than any corporate farm.

I would suggest that you read 'Economics in One Lesson' by Henry Hazlitt. You'll learn a lot more about how markets really work from this primer than all your socialist professors and marxist based publications combined.

Make that probably the only one who frequents this forum, etc.

I don't need to make it this forum or any other.

I said "the only one I know", unless we've met before I don't know you. If I had said "the only one I know of" you would have a point.

It is an important election. I can only hope the Republicans regain control of the Senate and keep control of the House.

My prediction is they will.

Do you think it is in the best economic interests of food producers for people to starve, for their potential customers to die off?

No, it's in the best interests of food producers to maximise profit. If they can make more profit from selling food to 50,000 people at a higher price than selling it to 500,000 at a lower price this is what they will do.

Why do you think Nike charge so much for a pair of trainers? They could sell them for the production price and sell millions more trainers - they don't do this because it simply doesn't maximise profits.

It's nothing to do with "marxism" just simple common sense.

So you're back. I thought after you made an ass of yourself attributing a question to me that I didn't ask... that you had left. I guess you were just busy reading some more of the foolish pap you read.

Well, it was nice while your absence lasted.

Knowing is a relative term. I was assuming that you noticed me when we were in the same forum from time to time. I think, this was long ago, we even exchanged comments. Now that doesn't mean I know you explicitly but that I recognize you when you post.

I'm not quibbling, just elaborating.

I am a political analyst/consultant. I do not post here because I am very involved in politics elsewhere. I come here to take a break from it.

Besides, I have yet to find one person whose mind can be changed by introducing them to facts. People's personal investment in the outcomes usually precludes that.

If you are not a precinct committeeman you should be given the passion you feel about things of this nature. I recommend that to everyone who is passionate about the issues not matter which side of the coin they flip.

Cheers,

Yes I've seen most of your posts. Perhaps it is either a failure on my part that I can be so specific, or perhaps you're just not used to people who say what they mean. That's why I used the term "know" instead of "know of".

Too true.

If only yours could do the same.

Too bad your responses did not become any better during your too short absence. At least your feeble attempts are mildly amusing.
