And you know what, that dinner you just ate can’t be used to feed 3 starving children in Africa. Seems like you wasted those resources. You bastard.
Again, you’re making his same mistake. You’re projecting your value scale onto his choices. The guy acquired those resources (supposedly) through market means…making other people better of (i.e. increasing wealth). If you want to argue that what he chooses to do with that freely acquired wealth he now has (i.e. what he does with his own time and his own property) is “a waste”, that’s your opinion…but that doesn’t make it a fact. That’s the thing about opinions. I could just as easily say you’re wasting time and effort bitching about how people are wasting money. You could easily be using all that breath to be singing showtunes on the street corner. I would much rather hear that. That would be useful. But instead you’re wasting all that vocal work complaining about other people. You bastard.
Um. Yeah. I said that.
Or maybe state-righteousness and necessity and dependence is taught in state-schools because it’s in the self-interest of those in control.
You haven’t heard? That’s their whole problem. Austrian economics isn’t scientific. Even Brian Caplan shows so.
