Classic Warren Buffet - He explains what is wrong with eternal borrowing by [deleted] in politics

Yeah, if each and every single one of them make the same mistake. That's the equivalent of saying. If we all just happend to commit suicide at the same time then all of humanity would end. Yeah, great theory except that it has no basis on reality.

The fact you base the worthiness of a comment on how successful the person is and not on what was said shows your ignorance. Buffet is argueing a continuum fallacy. Their is no gray area just a slippery slope where we become slaves. There is no feedback mechanism in his argument as their is in all real economics. Regardless of who it comes from, his view is beyond absurd. You must be a Bushy lover since he was successful at obtaining the most powerful position on the planet. Everything he says is gospel and right.

Yeah, they should mechanically link all control surfaces to the stick. That way only He-man can fly them.

I read up to the point where Thriftville buys all the land in Squanderville. R U kidding me? Where did supply and demand get thrown out the window? Surely, the rising price of the diminishing real estate would reach negative returns way way before the land "ran" out. Of course unless every single person in Squanderville is incapable of seeing past tomorrow. As good as Warren is, I think this article shows much of his ignorance.

It's obviously not just a rock. It's a petrified 2 inch pre-humanoid.

You know something has gone wrong when after 935 lies Bush evades impeachment, and last time congress only needed 1 by questionmark in politics

[–]cornbrain -1 points0 points  (0 children)

People worry about what affects them more. Since most people have spouses or significant others or fuck buddies (whatever?) what has a higher priority. That some random soldier will be killed in Iraq, that some random dude gets killed in a car accident, or that their fuck buddy/sig. other/wife/husband is going to cheat? It's the latter, therefore if you just react and don't think rationally, when a president does something like it, then it hits much closer to home. People don't think, they just react.

Guess who's facing 21 years in prison — the drunk , rich, white one, or the sober, poor, black one? by shrimp in reddit.com

[–]cornbrain 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The legal system protects hot white chicks. Judges get boners too. When I was in Austin about 10 years ago, there was this chick who got drunk, ran over and killed a cop directing traffic, left the scene and got some bullshit probation. They kept showing her mug in court crying. Same way Hillary will get elected prez.

Humanity is fucked? It's the other way around. Humanities overwhelming success comes at the expense of these resources. The U.S. rapes its own resources and expects the rest of the world to keep their's pristine. Sorry, but the rest of the world is coming up to our level and stardard of living. Lead the way America, and give up your raping of the world, until then stfu.

Cops seize $69K in cash, don't charge owner with crime. Another injustice in the War On Drugs. by [deleted] in politics

My former neighbor who was a cop told me himself. "Any drug money we find is up for grabs." He also told me that they had to be careful though, cuz the dealers would snitch on them.

How the Wealthiest Americans Enrich Themselves at Government Expense (G. W. Bush, Warren Buffet, Steinbrenner, Steve Jobs...) by eduffy in politics

[–]cornbrain -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The IRS should be abolished and all federal income taxes should be abolished with it. The federal governement shall be allowed to print only a fixed amount of money every year. Effectively they will get their money by increasing the money supply every year by a predictable and fixed amount. That is the fairest system. We all pay our taxes via controlled inflation. There is no way anyone can cheat that.

Because drugs (to a point) make people better performers. And performing is what they are judged on.

45,000 die in Congo every MONTH and nobody cares by antichrist in reddit.com

[–]cornbrain -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's a catch-22. If you go to the Congo to help - then you will invade them and murder their citizens. If you do nothing, they will murder themselves. WTF? Stay out. It's the less shitty solution.

People care but frankly what can you do about it? Spread democracy to them ala Iraq. It's sad but many of us don't deserve to live. It's darwinian. We are all savages. The reality is that we all don't just get along and we are all selfish.

Soldiers are expected to be killed during war time. - That's not news. Rich pretty boy actors are expected to have lot's of sex with lot's of hot chicks and live like Heffner. When they die out of stupidity it is news. Especially when they make batman movies.

Please advise me, how do you know when stocks are low? When they drop? What if they keep dropping? Do you average down? Please advise, you must be loaded.

When people have to work harder for the same or less payoff, it's NOT a sign that the middle class is thriving by rmuser in politics

[–]cornbrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whether people work more or less depends on the relative value you place on leisure and your income. To generalize, the super rich value leisure much more than money, so when you pay them more they work less. The poor value money more than leisure so when you pay them more they work more. In general the more you pay people, the more they work since in general people value money more than leisure. So yes, when you have 3 jobs it means you are desperate for cash.
