VVV... You will find that having an intelligent conversation with these guys to be impossible. They lack the intelligent part of it. And their maturity and rationality level is very low also. One can choose to ignore them or wallow with them in the mud but don't expect intelligent discussion. They would rather sling shit than think.
You are unable to speak your mind using your regular ET account so you've created an alias account so that you can post anonymously. That is what cowards like you and Ricter do because you lack the balls it takes to have your words attributed to you.
Only a halfwit would be gullible enough to buy into the lies Ricter spews all over this forum but we already know that about you from your alarmist AGW proselytizing.
Right, and not a peep out of you expressing concerns over NEO's, especially since a tiny one made world news last week. I find it rather hard to fathom your sincerity about your previously stated smarmy highfalutin concerns for the earth.
He's just knee-jerking to the second part of my statement, about inequality. As if the wealthy don't take steps to protect what they have when it looks like the "undeserving" are massing up to take some.
Maybe I'm not understanding your usage but "rising inequality" is nothing to fear. What would be really screwed up in a society is everyone being the same. Markets and trade are based upon differing personal utilities and priorities of value. IOW: exactly equal people don't trade or do business with each other.
On further thought, I don't like my answer. How do I reconcile the (supposedly) more secretive Obama administration, which is, according to the right, "socialist", with my belief that the plutocracy is circling the wagons?
