It's a 50/50 guess on whether I can spark a Keynesian vs. Austrian debate here or get this thread closed as spam.  smile

Oh, and sorry if I'm prematurely framing you as a Keynesian, WFS!  Couldn't think of a better example in the forums off the top of my head.  tongue

@Little Paul

This is a non-rap music video that has an adorable anti-intellectual property message.

Re: Acolyte vs. WFS in 7 minutes. :)

I consider myself more of a Rhineland modellist, but I can live with the Keynesianist label.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhine_Capitalism

Oddly enough, it's named "Rhineland Capitalism" in the english version of the wikipedia article. I'm not against capitalism, but I'm defenatly against neocon/laissez-faire capitalism, as history proved it just doesn't work..

@Wild Flower Soul

I think you will find that "neocons" have very little to do with Austrian school economics.

I'm moving towards industrial feudalism aka the Mad Max School

but in the real world you have to print money to lend to yourself

The core joke of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is that of course no civilization would develop personal computers with instant remote database recovery, and then waste this technology to find good drinks.
Steve Jobs has ruined this joke.

"I think you will find that "neocons" have very little to do with Austrian school economics."

I never wanted to imply that I had any interest to look up what the Austrian school of economics is about to counter their/your theories. I merely summarized why I endorse the Rhineland-model, and/or Keynesianism.
I rarely visit these boards nowadays, a proper discussion at this rate would take months tongue

But that would require WFS to log onto his mod account to block you.  If he rarely comes here... should be self-explanatory.  tongue

A desirable prospect if we lived in a post-apocalyptic world. wink

Fair enough. I just wanted to make sure that there weren't any unfair or inaccurate characterizations going on.
