Social Market Economy....the answer??

I cannot demonstrate what is subjective to human opinion.

A social market economy provides a better answer to society in general. European countries have under this system one of the best ways of life there has ever been in this planet.

It has proven to work for now 63 years.

On the other hand Libertarianism is yet to come out of the books.

IOW, you can’t. This is like those idiots who promise an irrefutable proof of God, only to offer sloppy arguments like “you need to believe in Him first!”

CAN YOU PROVE YOURS??

You mean like Switzerland, Monaco, Liechtenstein etc?

Yep, it is demonstrable via economic theory. Don’t try shifting the burden of proof though. I’m giving you one chance: prove it or GTFO. If you can’t do the former, I’ll be facilitating the latter pronto.

It has left us with a great number of dependent and broken welfare serfs who have not only become materially, but also spiritually bound to their masters.

This is being financed by those who remain independent and potent enough to produce the goods and services that your beloved welfare politicians are eager to distribute. They, too, are suffering from the welfare disease; if more than 50% of what you produce is taken from you for without due compensation, you become inert and desperate.

All the while, this is being heralded as “21st century economics” and “social justice”.

The fact that it has not collapsed yet (remember, the Soviet Union needed its 70 years as well) does not mean it is in any way superior to a free market.

I think you say it yourself…“theory”. In Theory I believe I am God. In Theory anything can be done.

Economics is not some kind of stuff on itself. It is merely people in any kind of society working to get the most they can under their economic system. As there are many economic systems there are also many types of their applications because every country is different culturally and they also differ on their recourses.

Read “Good Capitalism Bad Capitalism”. It will give you an insight on real world economics……….not theory.

Undeniably you made a good point there. I don’t see anything wrong with a tax rate of 50% if a society in particular so chooses.

Nevertheless, I see the US system more likely to fail than European Social Markets.

As you well said, let’s wait for the 74 year mark.

Handwringing nonsense. You’re whining because you don’t like the consequences of economic theory. I’m not wasting my time reading crap. Now, provide the proof or GTFO.

Dude cut the ####### already. Ban me right now. That is your objective for the day. If you dont do it you wont be able to have a nice weekend. I will open a new account and promise I will let you know so you do your banning thing again.

I also asked you about your theory. Where is it??

SWITCH YOUR NAME TO “BANNER”

Me neither, as long as I’m allowed to opt out with my full property. Unfortunately, this option is not being granted.

So shall I take that as tacit admission of your having no proof? It would seem so. If you cannot substantiate your arguments, you’re just wasting our time with these threads. They could be ignored and clutter up the forum. Or I could just rid of them directly and avoid the clutter.

But we have our representatives and democratic governments. If you dont like them then become one of them just like RON PAUL did. Hopefully you will be able to ban a lot of politicians not of your liking.

If they attempted to forcefully expropriate my holdings, banning is the least of things they’d suffer.

I have a better more democratic idea. Let’s have every user vote for it. If I am allow to stay or to be banned. I don’t think I have done anything inappropriate other than challenge the MODERATOR. A very hostile one…I would say.

Why do you use the word forcefully? We live in a society where laws are passed and it has taken centuries for some to be corrected and others to be taken away.

I took almost 200 years for blacks to be truly equal. At the same time we got the Fed in 1913. Our Nation in the long run…will develop. Will you be a part of it??

“Society” doesn’t choose anything. It’s just that a majority of voters get to impose their views on others who don’t want that.

That is called democracy. Majority rules and everyone else follows. What’s wrong with that?? Nothing.

However, I dont think the majority rules in the USA. I think Banks do.

You’ve provided no argument so far, and have a record of this. You’re no challenge for me. But you are wasting time and space. So, will there be any argument? Last chance. There will be no vote. It’s up to you to provide an argument.
