My theory has been proven correct. Again.

Awesome insult. She’s dead so she has no brain activity.

What, exactly, is your excuse?

Let’s say I have declared my own personal war against a foreign nation.

Do I go through the trouble and peril of trying to steal a nuclear weapon to detonate in their capital city

or do I send you, Rhythmdvl and the rest of you epic genetic failures to “empower them economically”?

Tough choice. The latter involves dragging your ilk into the light of day, which may be harder than stealing a nuke.

No, rather let’s say you have declared your own personal war against anyone and anything with an IQ higher than a septic tank.

So far, you’re losing.

How quickly we forget.

You are right companies have no obligation to provide jobs.

What that misses is there is no company without employees. Think Henry Ford could have done what he did all by himself?

We have ample examples of companies treating their workers like slaves. In the United States no less (and after actual slavery was against the law). In the early 20th century companies even had their workers shot (literally). More, they got the government to shoot them.

This is history, not theory.

Companies, left to their own devices, will push the wages down so low it amounts to slave labor.

Kids forced to work.

Injuries making you worthless.

There are a hundred people outside who want your job.

Kiss the company ass and be happy for what little you get because they have no responsibility to the worker.

As the US mandated certain minimum rights for workers and demanded they be paid some minimal wage the corporations moved to countries who didn’t give a shit.

You are ok with that?

Plagiarized or not, your post is awesome!

Huh, I’m impressed. The “I know you are but what am I?” response was, I thought, well above your grade level.

Oh, so he can’t even form an original thought, either? And he - and you - are actually proud of that.

See, this is your problem. You’ve heard of the “I know you are but what am I?” comeback, most likely because I’ve called one of your ilk out on it a number of times here, but you don’t even understand what it means. This problem bedevils you consistently.

Try forming an original thought sometime. I know it hurts feeble minds like you, but you know what they say, no pain, no gain.

You could have linked to the post that you accused him of plagiarizing…

Ban this troll!!

Stop feeding him. He may be a blathering waste of space, but he’ll fall off the soapbox if you don’t acknowledge his so-very-obvious trolling attempts.

You’ve apparently never been to Haiti. Or seen it on the news.

Yeah, I have no idea why Le Jacquelope thinks Haiti is rich, I would love to see a cite for that.

Actually, the best general phrasing of it came from here:

I referred to it once in the Best Doper Quote thread.

As for LJ: Obvious Troll is Obvious.

I save my masterpieces of originality for my fan fiction. You… you’re just some schmuck whose knowledge of economics is comparable to a runaway tricycle’s.

I assumed you were referring to him plagiarizing my post.

Because the alternative… that you were accusing me of plagiarism… ok, well, considering how stupid the people of this forum are, I guess you could sink to that level.

Wait… you’re saying you’re not a fictional character? You’re actually for real? You do realize that this forum is one big practical joke, right? You aren’t supposed to take it seriously. At least, I don’t. I hope you don’t. Do you?

In your highly abridged picture-filled dictionary, a troll is defined as someone who doesn’t buy your bullshit arguments and isn’t intimidated or scared off by your weak kneed pile-ons and trash talking.
