You mean just like this?: If you had not "taken advantage" of your family as a baby, you'd be dead.


The purpose of the institution is to support humanity and the environment. In effect, humanity is and should be dependent on the institution. We taker advantage of the institution effectively.

You are twisting meanings of "take advantage".
There is a difference:
1. Child taking advantage of parental support. Something is given to us, we take advantage effectively.

2. Taking advantage of others through unethical exploit.


You conveniently twisted the meaning in your response. Try coming up with an intelligent response that actually addresses what rude boy was talking about.

Lol. You are certainly a self-righteous, blind cunt.

If you had the capacity to comprehend anything beyond the tip of your pointy little nose, you would see I established an equivalency to lead the poster to whom I was responding to the point that "doing a service for someone" is about as much of being taken advantage of as a baby takes advantage of its parents for care.

But of course, you're just a stunted leech and will contort all you see to justify your uselessness.

Nothing was contorted wesmoron.
Doing service for someone is not taking advantage. It is someone taking advantage of your service. If you offer somebody a free service, you may or may not take advantage of it.
The post was refering to using the term "taking advantage" as "exploiting". Not as friendly usage.

We can put it this way:
capitalism is man maliciously exploiting of other men, communism is man maliciously exploiting other men. of course the real difference here is how fast you do it.

In which you respond:
"*clears throat*

Uhm...

If you had not "maliciously exploited" your family as a baby, you'd be dead.


You are clearly an idiot who cannot read and interpret plain english.

Well, someone has to be the forums troll. You're the perfect fit, though not nearly as bright or creative as your predecessor.

Speak for yourself. The troll is you.
You have yet to contribute anything relevant.

Who else am I going to speak for, brightboy?

I keep wondering how you ever got the impression that you have the capacity to discern relevance. Then I remember it's your bloated self-importance. It's right there in your name. To compensate for your utter failure in, and inability to comprehend the economic system in which you exist, you place yourself above it. When anything threatens your tenuous - and as you know deep down - fallacious and mislead understanding of your environment, you lash out and demonize it.

The very function of absolute denial is to hide itself from its host - absolutely. As such, you're safe. You don't have to change a thing. You're perfect. No demons to wrestle with, and it explains perfectly why the system conspired against you, and why you're to adapt to his environment. It's the environment that's wrong - not you. Couldn't be you.

It's genius... at least to you, who of course doesn't have to concern himself with the crass details of his own pathetic, leechlike nature.

Hallejuah cool skill has the coolest skill, and only he can see clearly enough to recognize how cool it is. Everyone else is a fool.

How original.

How pathetic indeed you are.
You have failed to address the point.
I make points, and you think that is a troll.

Your personal attack that cool skill has no ability to comprehend the economic system does not change the facts pointed out about the economic system.
It's irrelevant. It's a circular argument that will get you nowhere.

A: You fail to comprehend the economic system.
B: No it is you that fail to comprehend the ecoonomic system.
A: No it is you that fail to comprehend the ecoonomic system.
B: No it is you that fail to comprehend the ecoonomic system.

Idiots that use circular reasoning are typical nutbags.
EDIT: Notice how I have posted dozens of points about capitalism, and never have I once used the circular ad hom attack: "You no nothing about economics."

It is irrelevant. It is a charactr attack that avoids the point altogether.

Simple. You have no logic because you have no brain. Set off to see the wizard. "If ever oh ever a whiz there was the wizard of oz is one because." Have a nice trip. Hopefully you will return with a new brain.
 
wesmorris,

A child is not taking advantage of you if you want to help the child.

By your logic, when you give someone a gift, that person is taking advantage of you... :eek:
 
My god you two are slow-witted.

You are so mentally stunted by the idea that "exploitation" is equivalent to capitalism, you cannot even fathom the possibilty that people can serve one another in an honest, fair trade of service in good will.

Ah, the rebellious teen who thinks he knows the world. It's cute... sort of.

It's look like it is you who cannot even fathom the possibilty that people can serve one another in an honest, fair trade of service in good will! :bugeye:

How so? Do you really think so? Are you sure of it?

Do you find me dishonest?

Do you think my will is actually ill towards either of you children?

Do you think I do not provide a service?

Do you think you do not provide one for me?

Is your will ill?

Can you think harder than pointing your finger?

Have you understood the point of the equivalency yet?

If not, have you really tried at all before spouting off about how I don't know what I'm talking about?
 
Nobody is obligated to provide any service.
It is the institutions duty to rpotect all human right sequally.
People who provide service should be properly compensated.
Capitalists take advantage of people with less skill and education by making them do the hard labor for the least money.

Labor should be based on supply and demand. Meaning the less desirable the job, and the hire demand for the job, the more the jobs should pay. It's funny how the least desirable and most important jobs such as plowing fields and sanitation are the least paid.

This is not honesty, but exploitation. Capitalism clearly is totally flawed.
 
You're living in a capitalist society and prefer communism, so why haven't you moved to China? You are free to be as incompetent and useless as you wish, all the while being looked after by the state. It's perfect for you.

China isn't a communist country.

I understand the economy is very slowly turning towards capitalism, but the CPC still runs the country.

The idiot that prefers communism is you. Capitalists and Communist have the exact same ignorant mentality of idioticy.
