I wonder if they ever thought about calling it "CAP" for short?

[milnerbeck]

omg a place for all the losers from second life game to hang out and really be pervs like in the game, haha. Its bad enough its a playground for sicko's in the game but now they want a place to hang out. Matbe law enforcement should visit there I bet they hear and see things that are really really sick. BTW dont you think you made enough off the welfare takers that stay how and play your game with the states money you need to start other things to make more

[HikaruYamamoto]

@BigMTBrain wow... you are such an idiot XD

[BigMTBrain]

@HikaruYamamoto - Hahahahaha.... Losers will say ANYTHING to try to save face!!! LOL!! OK. Now, I'm totally through with you. I can't believe I've wasted these few moments trying to educate a deluded dimwit such as yourself. Good luck with your fab new C&P venture. I'm sure you're having great fun singing the C&P jingle "Only at C&P can you work more and more and harder and harder while earning less and less and less and less..." Go for it!! XD

[HikaruYamamoto]

@BigMTBrain Well hey guess what, I am currently unemployed and already I've made decent cash on C&P. And Philip is a wonderful nice guy and a good friend of mine. It's not about the money to him.

[BigMTBrain]

@HikaruYamamoto - Oh, yeah, I get it... it's great from the "I need that low-cost service" perspective, but... what about the "I need your business/money" perspective? For each worker willing to do any particular simple, odd, or pro job, there will eventually be 10s to 1000s bidding for the same work. Who wins? The most reputable lowest bidder. The result: Everybody bids lower and lower--a race to the bottom. This is simply Rosedale's 'get richer by exploiting the needy and desperate' scheme.

[HikaruYamamoto]

@BigMTBrain You really don't get it... I mean how many people out there are going to go out of their way to look for someone to sew a button? bake cookies? crochet an octopus? But if its up as a mission people might think "hey I need that" Or could be simple as "I need a burrito delivered" some of them are local, some are far away. So don't go judging unless you actually know what you are talking about.

[BigMTBrain]

@HikaruYamamoto -Oh, I see. People don't work for money. Hahaha... Yes. I see that all over the world. NOT! C&P is great for businesses, but for workers, it's a race to the bottom. U.S. workers can't compete with the cheap labor in developing countries. Even workers in India will eventually drive each other down to slave value. C&P facilitates abuse of the poor. Get your head out of your ass and THINK!!

This video is discussing C&P, and so was your original, extremely ignorant statement. BYE

[HikaruYamamoto]

@BigMTBrain If you knew anything you would realize I wasn't even talking about C&P... as for C&P it is an excellent way to gain some extra side money and is great to create projects for cheaper labor, the people work not for the money but for the love of the work.

[BigMTBrain]

@HikaruYamamoto -XD -If you knew how to read, you would know that C&P actively promotes the decline of the low and middle class while rewarding business with VERY cheap labor. Rosedale: "I would rather hire a kid in Brazil who is hungry for work for a project than hire a Stanford graduate," NYT: "Besides putting downward pressure on what people can charge, the low prices also raise questions about the quality of the services." The idea in this vid FLOPPED, so C&P switched to global outsourcing.

[HikaruYamamoto]

@BigMTBrain BAHAHAHAHA you just got seriously trolled, wow you sound angry. Awww did I make you cry? Wow you really went off on a tangent there, you bust a few buttons? Its kinda sad really. You put so much energy trying to laugh at people's fortune. I think you are just jealous, I think you should move on and get over it. You're just going to embarrass yourself even more.
