I cannot help but see the humor in a business owner and capitalist being called a socialist (which I am not) slash a communist (which is a very different thing). And I am fairly certain I worship nothing (except possibly PJ Harvey ).
Also, my business turns a profit and employs several.
How many do you employ?
I don’t know you personally (other than my deep longing for you, you beautiful creature) but I am guessing you are not a business owner.
Most (not all) people who deify the constitution and capitalism and Ayn Rand are worker bees. Often working for gov’t, gov’t contractors, or subsidized industries.
Think about the SAIC engineer with the Ron Paul sticker or the Realtor who holds forth about the gold standard.
Its pretty fucking funny really when you think about it.
But still not as good as your “history” lessons.[/quote]
Classic!
I noticed it too that the Ayn Rand fanboys/fangirls are typically worker bees, the less they understand business, the higher their fanaticism.
The SAIC comment is spot on!
Now, I’ll back away and enjoy the the shit flinging match from the sidelines.
