@LogicalFlawDetector Well, at least you didn't call me a moran.

[ChrisDutch]

@ChrisDutch That is the kind of intellect I expect from a leftist.

@ajgolfer1 They are bad for the economy if a small percentage of the population controls them. That's math, jerkfoff, not economics not that I expect a stupid Tea bagging, Ayn Rand pussy sucking asshole like you to understand either.

@ChrisDutch

Hey faggot, you are an architect only in your dreams. You are a faggot who's on welfare and is an Occunut Marxist. Get a life you moron.

@ChrisDutch oh yeah trillions of dollars of stocks are bad for the economy, we could go back to the feudal system if you hate stock ownership so much.

[ChrisDutch]

@ajgolfer1 No shithead, I'm an architect. My drawings create work for myself, my drawings create work for contractors, my drawings create work for suppliers, subs and other people. In short I am a job creator, unlike the vermin on Wall Street sitting on trillions while Americans struggle to find jobs because they were enable by intellectual frauds like pig Friedman and the assholes that run the Chicago School of Economic Nazi Terrorism. Got it brain dead lemming?

When the federal reserve says "if it wasn't for us it would have been worse," that's the same as the Captain of the Titanic saying "if i hadn't hit the iceberg, more people would have died."

Yeah, right.

However Friedman is naive if he thinks that the federal reserve was the product of simple misinformation, rather than POWER.

Jackson and Lincoln usurped absolute POWER over the individual states, and that led INEVITABLY to plutocrats expanding that power via total control over the economy.
