  3. well finally, you're starting to come around.

    where does it stop? Maybe it stops there, it has in the past

    It has also declined

    that is the topic

    are we on a slippery slope toward socialism which will just make the rich poorer and the poor poorer?

    and like I said, the conversation really isn't about socialism vs capitalism

    it's about how man views the threat of any "slippery slope."

    sort of like, "Ok, this one time, but no more."

    and then you get screwed and say, "Never again."

    btw, my dad was an English major, so there's nothing you can throw at me I wasn't already hit with

    Dad, I gotta talk to you!

    you mean, "I have to talk with you."

  4. I actually (truly) agree with the going back to the topic at hand. I do have to say that I don't think I am the one that derailed from it originally.

    I didn't know that philosophical questions were only for "sophomores in h.s.". Thanking for your teachings and admirable knowledge of philosophical thought.

    I think you meant to write Thomas Peterffy (caps for proper names)!

    Again, it is not about guts. It is about business sense, from the point of view of a business leader expressing personal opinions. This is the reason corporations have a "Public Relations Department", so that the leaders of companies, primarily public companies know, what to do and say in public. Regardless of their PERSONAL (sorry for yelling), feelings! This being my MAIN point. He is a head of a public (publicly held company). He should not be making this type of statements.

    It is not about guts, or who's dad is bigger/stronger (since for some reason you revert to answer everything in early childhood or high school terms)!:D

    As for the current Republican nominee, that poor soul of a man, did not even know that some people lived middle class lives, in his younger years. PLEASE watch a PBS documentary about him (and also President Obama) and you will see how Romney could not believe that some people actually struggle and suffer in life.

    BUT this is the candidate of the TEA party!!!

    Oh, and just so you guys/gals know a bit about me:

    I was a Republican, GOP card carrying (proud) member for most of my adult life....never again!.......I am not a Democrat either.

  7. Since I have to go out and eat something, I will make this one short.

    What????? (multiply by 10)

    Are you saying your dad was a bad teacher or are you saying you were a bad student?...Don't worry about it, does not concern me anyway.

    Chat later boys n girls. (Stay thirsty):D


    BUT write back...don't hold back!

  8. go back to your prestigous school and ask them what the plural of Bluegill is. I know out here where I live, if you call them "Bluegills" they will look at you like you don't know how to speak the King's English.

    I use to hang out with a lot of rednecks, and they couldn't figure out why Mexican Americans liked to talk Spanish in America. Even though most of the rednecks were Irish or German, for some reason they thought any American should speak English.

    Not sure what is so good about English. Didn't we fight two wars against them? Now we speak their language, and even bitch when other's don't do it right?

    and that is the slippery slope. Next thing you know we'll all be eating eels on the Queen's Birthday.
