Donn,
Disgusting?? No, your thoughts are naive and unrealistic. You think if your 3 multi-mega-international corporation colluded another multi-mega-international corporation that someone would come in and undercut them?? HAHAHAHAHA, dude, that’s about as unrealistic as can be imagined. You’re living in a fantasy world. The truth is, they'd come in, offer to buy you out for some pittance, if you refused, they'd simply lower their prices until then sell at a loss until you, with your smaller capital, went out business and then raise prices right back to where they were. They’re bigger, THEY could sustain the losses you could not. How do I know?? Why, THAT was Bill Gate modus operandi for years.

Marcs,
Are these multi-mega-international corporations more or less powerful with or without the help of politicians? You call me naive? You trust the goddamned politicians more than a middle class kid with a great idea who hands the world desk top computers, or the poor farm boy who built the Model-T.
You know nothing about Gates...only what you've read in the yellow press. Believe what you want. Be as negative as you want. Eat your heart out over other people's hard-earned success. Sic your politicians on him. Cry, it's unfair! He has so much and I have so little. Florida's going to cut my teacher salary! Break up his company! He must have cheated. He must have hurt somebody to get where he is...tax him! Give me my share of what he has created... pathetic.
You damn mankind for his every achievement. Say you care about the little guy, and then destroy the creators of his middle class livelihood, the entrepreneur, the risk-taker, the capitalist. You won't know what you've done until it's too late and Americans are living like much of the rest of the world in filth and tyranny. Say you care about liberty, but deny men the product of their labor. Enslave mankind a few percentage points at a time and call your work Progressive. Enslave the best of us. Why? So that you can provide health care, free housing, and food stamps to that high school drop out with two kids, a third on the way, and no idea who the fathers are. Call her "less fortunate" as if luck had anything to do with her predicament.
Hand the world over, Marcs. Hand it to least worthy among us. That's the altruist-collectivist way.

Donn,
Now you’re just getting nasty and ugly. I have to end this conversation now, Bye.

And that my dear reader was the last time I heard from Marcs.

First remarks, I wasn't expecting the ending to end like this, I actually didn't know what to expect.
But the quote above is the anthem to the altruist-collectivist "Blinding themselves to reality". Plain and simple that it is all there is to it, Marcus blinds himself from the reality, the reality of capitalisms.
I can see why you chose to put your debate with Marcus in your blog. He argues well, but he is still wrong. I don't understand why he would keep debating after you described the system and the problem to him.
I feel like the high school dropout mentioned in this might have another part in this. I don't think that she needs bookoos of government assistance, but I do think that maybe someone should take a second to talk to her. No matter who has been put in a situation like that, they probably have deeper issues that surface-level incompetence. It's possible that her dad left her own mom when she was too and because of that her mom has been a heavy drug-user, but still the only caretaker she's ever had. If that what you've grown up in, maybe that's all you know. Someone could tell her that there's a better life for her, and that she can provide that for not only herself, but also her two kids. Self-liberation is something most people yearn for, but aren't sure how to achieve.
I really think like I have more in common with people: flesh and blood, bones and joints, hearts and souls- than I do with money: paper and ink, dead presidents and pyramids, numbers and signatures. Economic systems are really taking a backseat to people for me at this point. Rational thought tells me that a brain and a heart can change more than 1's, 10's, and 100's ever could.
