Example of "Corporate Greed"

LOL!

Very apropos image, Slingblade! Most particularly, the words "egotistical bullshit posts about successes you haven't achieved" fit CuteOldGuy perfectly, don't they?

And to your post from yesterday:

That explains the lack of social skills. LOL!

I hope you don"t use that as a pick up line. Originally Posted by slingblade

However, in my older years, I've had to try new pickup lines. I've found that it's best to let leaders from the early days of our nation do the speaking.

And it seems that young women of today are often very fond of history. Show them a few photos of Benjamin Franklin, and they cozy up to you quite warmly.

Seems that most of them are big fans of wise ol' Ben!

"Corporate Greed" is a liberal boogeyman that doesn't exist; it is intended to deflect from the real greed in America - Government. Originally Posted by Whirlaway

The question I would pose to Debbie is this - when taxpayers who want to keep their hard-earned money are compared to politicians who want to take it from them to feed their uncontrolled spending, whose appetite better warrants the word "insatiable"?

I too am still in shock over how much of the bailout was used to pay bonuses

I would say she summed it up with the title and link. Her opinion was simple and obvious to me.


Lumping her in with the list of names you gave is wrong on many levels. She has just as much right to make a simple statement and post a link as anyone does. She made a comment and gave a link what else is required. All the political rants and name calling mixed in with a few lies does not benefit anyone. Originally Posted by slingblade

But the big question is, does this lady like having her ass eaten out? A good DATO knows no political leaning. Of course, if the ass chewing is done correctly, they all can be counted as member of the GREEN party!

She can reply by PM. Or so can you Corpy! (Naaah... that would mean you actually engaged females. Never mind!)

I have fucked dipshits before. In fact, I've been doing it in this forum on a daily basis before most of you dipshits were released from the Big House!

That's it?

A title and a link? Could you possibly be any lazier?

The article is five and a half years old. Why are you posting it now? What is your point?

And that isn't even an example of corporate greed. That is an example of political corruption.

AIG should never have been given a bailout. They weren't even a bank. Politicians got their palms greased. Originally Posted by ExNYer

Ah, Captain MoonBat. Keep Angry and Drivel On. I invite anyone who cares to view the threads to which you have posted. I stand by my statements. But you have never answered my question.

You are a legend in your own mind.

Here is a question about "greed". Who is the greediest company in the US?
Ah, Captain MoonBat. A conspiracy-mongering loon who's a 9/11 "Truther" goes around continually addressing someone as "Moonbat?" TFF! Keep Angry and Drivel On. Drivel? You mean like claiming ad nauseam that someone sounds "stupid," while manifesting an astonishing level of ignorance of the subject under discussion? After all, that's EXACTLY what you did in that first marathon FairTax thread. Damnedest thing I'd seen in a long time! I invite anyone who cares to view the threads to which you have posted. Sure you do! You're just comfortable in the belief that no more embarrassment is likely to accrue to you, since you figure that everyone who might see that thread has already done so. I stand by my statements. Hey, why not? Failing to do so would be a tacit admission that you're a bald-faced liar and an ignoramus, wouldn't it? But no one who has ever taken a college economics course believes you, and you know it. But you have never answered my question. Was there a question that merited a response buried somewhere in all your babble?

You are a legend in your own mind. LOL! Here's a very, very simple question for you: Of the two of us, which was the one who falsely boasted that he taught university-level economics? Originally Posted by CuteOldGuy

You're a laughingstock.

Insults were all you were able to offer, since you never made even the most rudimentary effort to comprehend the topic.

If you genuinely think you know much of anything about either economics or taxation, you're an ideal poster boy for the Dunning-Kruger effect.

Please read my historic meltdown. MoonBat will provide the link. There, feel better now, MoonBat?

BlowRider69 got banned? Say it isn't so !!

I'm sure Marshall/ChoomCzar/Unclehan/LowRider will show up again early next year.

I wonder if that little closet queen has figured out that the difference between 1973 and 2014 is 41, not 48.
