Am I the only one who thinks 'preferred'

0 votes

is a right royal pain in the proverbial?

When reading the Aaron Russo list, bless his soul, I couldn't help but wondering if preferred needs to have a check to see if he/she has got a heart.

How insulting you can be preferred. You're a disgrace.

I find it funny

That it is always the same people who call other people trolls. People that dont worship Ron Paul to the point of sheeple status, those who dare to disagree with others on this site, those who dare to question 9/11 'truth', those who question the sanity of gold-hording, those who question the baseless Obama and McCain smears (as well as the Ron Paul smears), etc. Myself, preferred, and phoobaar seem to be their targets lately. Not really offering any real arguments, just namecalling.

2bfree, oruval, sierrahpbt, Kevin Tuma, melgesman, neoconned, clarkstmusic, SSgt_AF.

To name a few. They are all extremely negative and quick to judge those who dare to break from the herd.

Holy Moley

It's Preferred the big ole TROLL eeeeeeeee

Who's a troll?

He seems to be trying to make points with data and logic. The counter-arguments I see are just name calling. Any time I see anyone make a point on this site some contingent of people on the site.

I would argue that the people driving away intelligent, spirited discussion are trolls. There used to be a lot more on this site. Unfortunately, this is the best known site for the revolution.

I hate to think that many potential supporters are made to think the cause of liberty is about destroying successful companies, believing in conspiracies, and making poor investment choices.

HAHAHAAA

your last paragraph is a hoot. Tell me then so I can marvel in it's glory..

Are you implying that GOLD is a poor investment, 9/11 wasn't an inside job, and that Walmart is good for America when most of their products come from overseas..

Good night everyone... I'm done.

Sleep well.

Sleep well.

1.) Gold alone is a poor long-term investment
2.) I hav e no idea what happened on 9/11 and neither do you. If you want to argue for more investigations, I'm with you.
3.) Whether Wal-mart is good for America doesn't matter. It's the capitalist system. It may suck, but it's better than all the other systems we've tried.

The goverment giving preferential treatment to WalMart is the

capitalist system?

I've got a pretty good idea.

about 9/11... Demolition. So yeah you're wrong.

Gold is a storage for wealth.. So yeah you're wrong.

I never said the capitalist system is bad and I totally agree with it. Walmart and big government as well as all corporatism of Fascism isn't exactly free market capitalism.. and I do not agree with Corporatism.

Good night.

Ok

1.) How does that prove an inside job?
2.) Wealth is a concept based on relativity, so no one thing can truly represent it.
3.) Then we agree that lobbying is a problem.

Don't blame me if there's no voice for liberty opposing McCain and Obama in the Presidential debates. I donated to Ron Paul Libertarian, Bob Barr's campaign.

'preferred' is a big UGLY TROLL!

Don't feed him!

We're all 'DAVE' http://digg.com/political_opinion/DAVE_calls_for_Ron_Paul_re...

The DP is proof that the grassroots support for Ron Paul and his peaceful message of individual liberty is large, real, and not going away!

Preferred has his valued

Preferred has his valued principles.
He might like to argue, as I sometimes do to.
And when he gets attacked mercilessly he fights back.
But the real root of the problem is this.
When someone posts something you might not agree with, you dont have to get together like a pack of wolves and start nipping at them. If you have a problem with someone, that has at least a little bit of brain power, try to beat them ideologically.
If you cant do that, then shut up.
Yes there are some people on here that deserve to be slandered.
I dont think he is one of them.

Here is an example of the horrible nature of some people on here, and why he might react the way he does.

I posted a thread about Walmart. Yes the one that was in favor of it.
And I was called a globalist, a troll, numerous curse words, etc etc.

Funny thing though, Im none of those. Ive donated hard earned money to Paul's campaign and I have organized some pretty big events in this movement.
Events you all have either attended or where in support of.

And yet I was attacked and called those names.

Basically.

Get a life.

Walmart Kills

Small business. Period. If that is what you like then you are entitled to your opinion..

Walmart put my family's drug store out of business.

I am watching another small town in KY where a Super Walmart was just built slowly erode away..

They have lower prices

because they can negotiate at a larger scale and create a more efficient supply chain. I try to shop at mom and pop shops as much as possible, but you can't blame Wal-mart for being better at making things cheaper.

and Starbucks killed...

...my family's small coffee shop. True story, I'm not being antagonistic.

But he's right. The end result of companies who achieve dominance in a market is cheaper goods for all - a greater aggregate benefit.

If there were only mom and pop shops around, prices would be higher for everyone on a variety of items that everyone needs - even the owners of those small businesses. That leaves everyone with less money to spend and less money to invest in their own endeavors. A losing situation for all.

At some point the efficiency ends.

How efficient is to have to drive back to WalMart to return something because it's broken, missing parts, or of terrible quality. Is my time worth nothing? What about the gas I have to use making two trips instead of one?

I refuse to support Dick Cheney's favorite company and I vote against local government officials who give tax breaks to WalMart but not other businesses.

It's not efficient...

...but it's also just a made up example. If their stuff was always breaking, people would stop shopping there.

It's not a made up example.

It's reality. That's why I don't go there anymore. Their cheap crap was wasting my time. I'd rather pay more and be done with it. Ever seen the return line at WalMart?

You live in the city?

I don't shop there.

I think their stuff is crap, but a lot of other people think its suits them fine.

Every company has defective products. If the number of defects becomes too large, people will find substitutes.

and caffeine kills you....

but don't tell me that.
i love coffee.
but since my kidney has been acting up - i gave it up...
at least for a while.
maybe i'll have a few cups here and there.
coffee is meant to go up your ass, not down your throat! :) true story.

and i hear starbucks is closing something like 600 stores nation wide now.
interesting.

Then we will all be poor.

it's a closed loop. Average wealth in America has dropped precipitously because of small business going under. Even if the costs drop where will that lead if no one can afford it with their minimum wage job..

What do you want?

Do you want the government to make sure that businesses don't compete with each other?

Absolutely not

I just don't want Walmart getting unfair tax breaks which they do from the government.. Also the FED and IRS need to be abolished.

They are playing in the system that exists

If they don't play within the boundaries of the game, they go out of business. that is true for all business. The important part is to change the rules of the game so that they are fair for all. That includes changing the rules for lobbiests

hot damn, we seem to have

hot damn, we seem to have another intelligent person on the boards. Very nice.
