I am just responding to what you say...one minute the free market is the savior the next minute it did not exist because it was the Federal Reserves fault. Like he says, you got to blame somebody!

Which is it?


I am saying there was never 100% free market capitalism, what is it about that you don't understand? The closer you are to 100% the better the result. The more you move away, the worse the result. Do I need to dumb it down more or are you all set now?


So you are saying free market capitalism has nothing to do with the general prosperity in America that your buddy Milton was talking about. Go ahead, dumb it down...

It was an analogy illustrating your broken pathetic logic. Your response was just more evidence of that.

Jeez, do I need to dumb it down

Like I said, stick to your contradictory statements on free markets because I don't buy your little insults!

Are you really going to start lying again? I am not insulting you, I am just beating you senseless with superior intellect.

Right OK! That is what that is! So, oh superior one, did free market exist or not exist in America. So far we have two or three answers to that question!

There has only been one answer, but you refuse to acknowledge it because you and I both know it defeats your senseless argument and makes you look rather stupid. Ah, what the hell, I enjoy that.. There has never been 100% free market capitalism in this country. Now, let me walk you through that.. Tell your two brain cells to hold hands for a second:

That doesn't mean free market capitalism doesn't exist. Got it sweetie? Even today it exists, but it is not 100%. It is weighted down by mouth breathers who think they know better than nature.

So, Sweetie (again thinly veiled insults, what is up with that?)

the following statement is independent of Free Market Capitalism:

A free-market economy is one within which all markets are unregulated by any parties other than market participants.

So, you really can not attribute any of the prosperity of America to a free market economy because as you say, it never existed! It is a fantasy!

Oh Grasshopper, you are the one presenting yourself as a superior being with cosmic insights! There is at least one of us here (I don't think I am alone) who does not buy it (none of it!).

Where did I say that? Instead of making shit up, how about sticking with what I actually said for a change?

No cosmic insight here, I am just smarter than you apparently. Now before you come up with a list of adjectives to respond with, rather than facts, how about you read what I posted?

There has never been a 100% free market capitalistic model in place in the US or anywhere for that matter.. We are part of a MIXED economy which is not pure 100% anything. Now that you are done Googling what a mixed economy is and hopefully have digested it, don't you wish you didn't run your mouth before you educated yourself?

WTF are you blind? I said it wasn't 100%! Nowhere there did I say it didn't exist. I gotta tell you, arguing with you is like talking to someone in bizaro land...
