Ns since some of us are to lazy or old to collect candy I'm call on our younger members to be taxed 40-50% of their candy to provide to the disadvantaged. Remember with out the government side walks or streets there would be no Halloween. You didn't collect (build) that. Just asking those who have candy to pay a little bit more

I think what roor actually wants in an anarchist society where there is no forced taxation only willful participation of projects and initiative of the individuals choosing. everyone can support each other in a community based on the idea of personal liberties and real freedom.

roor the anarchist I love you

i would say it works in a capatalist system, because it allows humans to make more of themself, and get more.

yeah, and then when the people with the most have the most power they can use their power to keep it and create a system that benefits them? it's kind of the failing of every system ever; it's why communism and anarchy would be extremely hard to make work because hiearchy will always come out in small ways. it's also just a part of capatalism, so it's weird to see the failing of an other wise desirable system with person freedom like anarchy be a part of the system we use now?

I'm not sure this makes sense, but somethings interesting about something alright.

obviously, but I'm simply pointing out the irony because most people who are on obamas dick think that he won't cut taxes on the rich. WRONG, he's rich, obviously he's going to cut taxes on the rich, thats just how things work, and also those rich people even with the tax cuts are paying way more than the average person pays. I personally don't believe in redistribution of wealth. Also I'm not voting for either of the main candidates, like in South Park, its one of those time where we have to choose between a giant douche(Romney) and a Turd Sandwich (Obama), i refuse to pick the lesser of two evils.

They were renewed or extended on a temporary basis. They will expire again on 12/31/12 if Congress does not take action, which is likely to happen post Nov 6.

This thread has so much win

Also I vote that along side giving the hard earned candy people worked hours getting to people who were didn't go out, we should also share grades. So basically all the really smart people with A's should have their grades lowered to B's and C's in order to bring the slackers who don't do any work up to D's and C's even though they did absolutely nothing to deserve it!

Oh my fucking god. I remember the first time I heard something and made a thread about it. This example was played a long time ago. I don't care if it's a real problem, fuck I think we should get rid of welfare and a bunch of other shit, fucking cut the fuck out of taxes, cut the fuck out of the government, but neither candidate wants to do that.

Regardless the example is played.



This thread blows, it's another bullshit probably facebook spawned thread and you probably don't even understand the concept you're just repeating shit your teacher, parents, the news, or some shitty HERP DERP SHARE THIS picture on facebook told you.


I don't care about you. I just want some peace and fucking quite so I can sniff some bathsalts and jerkoff while watching some shitty fucknig netflix shows. Don't you tell me what to do because you don't fucking own me. I do what I want. Did you ever trick or treat for coke? Well I did. Weed isn't an addiction bro.

I just gave it a shot. Through in my share of absolute WUT for the night. Good luck deciphering that shit. One of those posts that means what ever you want it to mean but really means nothing other than the internet is a mean world with mean people and the mean of their efforts end with some pretty nice people just searching for the meaning of life getting fucked over by mean people. It really is a sad trend in the world these days.

Or maybe it's more like the kids with A's do some tutoring after school and help the learning disabled kids get their grades up and it works out pretty well for both parties.

Your example sucks.

Pretty much, but that isn't all of it. There are people out there who DO deserve the assistance, but there is also a portion of the population who abuse the system and DON'T deserve the assistance

So you suggest we just say fuck the people with disabilities and who actually need it so the smart people can get smarter and richer? Seemslegit.jpg

People are always going to abuse the system no matter what system we have in place. Yeah we can make it harder for them but it doesn't make sense to make the point you were trying to make with your example of the grades.
