Hah. I drive a BMW, I like how it drives and it gets good milage. My Dad has a Mazda RX-7 from back when they were cool. Its insane. Really fun to drive, huge showy piece, but that gets gas milage like.....well the gas milage is like 12 mpg. The bmw is closer to 35-40.

Must be with a heavy foot or had some tuning done to it? My buddies RX-7 got great gas mileage with the original rotary and a 5 speed.

German fan? I like Beemers old I6's. Damn reliable engine.

There is actually a face book hate page regarding the condition of the roads in my town. But the real kicker is that the city council approved a 1.2 million dollar road sign with the city's name on it to be constructed next to our interstate exit. This is real life

Ouch.

Silver, same color, everything. But, it had a headlight problem and the ac broke down. It works, but needs work. Its his latelife crisis. Ironic. He likes it better than the red one. So, he gave the rd one ti my dad, and I got it. The parts cost a TON and are so bad to find........

Debatable. It's one of the Scandinavian countries, which have become very prosperous by pursuing free market policies and then began to slowly squander the gains it made by constructing massive welfare states. These, however, began to break down in the 1990s, so economic reform has been needed.

I know, I mean, if someone tries to rob you at night or sexually assault anyone, you should just reason with them and tell them why it's wrong. I mean, protecting your children and spouse should not be used with a gun, you're taking another life(sadly this is an acutal opinion for some.)

That argument isn't half as ridiculous as some of the others I've heard from the left. Apparently some "feminists" believe that women should urinate themselves to turn off their would-be rapist instead of defending themselves. Sickening.

[B]Wealth Redistribution and Poverty[/B]

Being Classically Liberal wrote this piece that can be found here: http://being-classical-liberal.blogspot.co.uk/2014/06/wealth-redistribution-and-poverty.html

It sums up the fact that higher taxes don't actually help the poor. 75% of income gains made by the bottom 40% worldwide are a result of economic growth. And since a study by two Keynesian economists, David and Christina Romer, discovered that tax increases do indeed damage GDP considerably, the only possible conclusion we can come to is that higher taxes - on anybody - hurt the poor a lot.

Thoughts on taxing the rich:

The typical left wing solution to any problem is higher income taxes on the rich. In fact, I remain unconvinced that modern liberalism is nothing more than envy wrapped in political rhetoric. For example, here are two issues which leftists think can be fixed by even more taxation of the wealthy:

1. Wealth inequality

>Modern liberal solution: Tax the rich even more

>Classical liberal solution: Privatize social security (thus making everyone an owner of capital)

2. Poverty

>Modern liberal solution: Tax the rich even more (wealth redistribution)

>Classical liberal solution: Grow the economy, 75% of the income gains that accrued to the bottom 40% of income earners worldwide are a result of economic growth according to the World Bank. [1]

Indeed, economic growth is the main driver in poverty reduction and the means through which the standard of living of country's citizens increases. Thus, anything that hinders economic growth is very much against the interests of the poor, as well as everyone else. And of course, a recent survey of the economic literature on government spending and taxation has found that in OECD (developed) countries, taxes are significantly negatively correlated with growth even after controlling for numerous of relevant factors that could affect growth. According to the authors:

"Most studies find that...an increase in government size [taxation or spending as a % of GDP] by 10 percentage points is associated with a 0.5 to 1 percent lower annual growth rate." [2]

For the United States specifically, research conducted by Keynesian economists David and Christina Romer states:

"[W]e find that a tax increase of one percent of GDP lowers GDP by about 3 percent." [3]

It's also worth noting that according to the Fraser Institute, the poor in the most economically free (the most capitalist) countries are better off than the average person in the least economically free countries:

"In the top quartile [of economic freedom], the average income of the poorest 10% was $10,556, compared to $932 in the bottom quartile in 2011US(PPP) dollars (Exhibit 1.9). Interestingly, the average income of the poorest 10% in the most economically free nations is more than twice the overall average income in the least free nations." [4]

Thus, there is good reason to expect that higher taxes on the wealthy could hurt economic growth and thus the poor. There is also good reason to expect economic freedom to be good for the poor. However, I'm not convinced that modern liberals actually want to help the poor. If they did, they would be actively doing something to help them, not trying to reach into other people's pockets to do what they think is right. I think their obsession with taxing the rich is more driven by envy than anything else, that or they wrongly believe in the zero sum game view of the world, in which one man can only gain at the expense of others. Regardless, I seriously doubt much good could come from further taxation of the wealthy (or anyone else) or further degradation of economic freedom (which the US has been experiencing for a decade).

Don't tell me I have brain damage for having a different opinion on things.

Communal, We know you have brain damage.........

I am very offended by the fact that you insist I have mental issues for being who I am. You only pull this card because you are either too lazy to counter my arguments, or you can't hold your own against them. That is the only viable reason as to why someone would feel the need to state that I am mentally damaged.

The same could be said for a lot of people who don't know how to even read my posts, better yet reply to them using brain power.

no, i say that you so because many of my comrades have given you great arguments yet you still insist that communism can work and you blame any failures of communism on Capitalists.

debating with you on communism is like debating with a Nazi on weather the holocaust was real.

I said capitalism cannot work many times and gave you many valid reasons, but I don't expect you to actually consider changing. I first came here to debunk many misconceptions about Socialism in particular but I did not come here to change people like you want to do to me apparently.

We seek not to change your ideas; if you want to believe that, then you can do that, and you can do that here.

What we seek to do is to show you simply that you believe in something that just isn't so. Whether or not you want to accept that is up to you, but our intention is to show the errors of your thought process and hope that you use that information to come to a logical conclusion. Whatever conclusion that is is up to you.

For example, many posts about Communism and Socialism on this RMB are well-organized and logical explanations of how the exact opposite of what you state is true: that capitalism, while not perfect, is the best substitute we presently can have for Communism, which has been shown to be a failure in practice. Though, I do admit that it seems very attractive in theory, but practically it's been shown to fail at just about everything.

Fine, the only reason that i agree with you on is we will run out of natural resources. however we will advance so much threw technology that we can limit our use of those resources. We can make our own.

The Amarican Empire wrote:We can make our own.

Not to mention that we do have a massive supply of hydrogen; nuclear fusion would be a pretty great idea once we figure out exactly how to do it.

If we ever run out, I'm pretty sure we could just rip something else apart for more hydrogen and energy. Basically an infinite energy loop. I sure hope that works in practice. Seems like it should be possible to rip helium apart for hydrogen, but it probably isn't. Yet.

And if it does happen to turn out that we can't do that, we'd probably have enough stuff left over for fission to last until the sun dies out anyways.
