  1. when i'm talking about limited liability corporations shareholders are the ones with limited liability
  2. That's EXACTLY what you're advocating for the workers, in your "karmic accounting" paradise. *IF* your statement were true, no business would ever fail and go OUT of business. no, i'm advocating that those who earn the wealth inherit it - rather than family (as ayn rand points out) inheriting it unearned
  3. i take it you've conceded my limited liability mooching point bill? stay away from moving propellers - they bite blue skies from thai sky adventures good solid response-provoking keyboarding
  4. Still doesn't make your point re: libertarianism. my point is that unearned family wealth creates moochers - ayn rand says so
  5. Why do you think it's not Libertarian? i thought moochers and libertarians were opposites - but obviously they're the same. stay away from moving propellers - they bite blue skies from thai sky adventures good solid response-provoking keyboarding
  6. he's the beneficiary of unearned family wealth
  7. Why do you think it's not Libertarian? http://www.spiritus-temporis.com/characters-in-atlas-shrugged/philip-rearden.html From your post, I'm guessing that you think this proves your point? i wouldn't say 'proves' - but it definitely helps my point along

  9. course you can - moochers use that arguement all the time
  10. so you think mooching off unearned wealth is libertarian - odd. stay away from moving propellers - they bite blue skies from thai sky adventures good solid response-provoking keyboarding
  11. we've already established that an inheritance is unearned income
  12. what a mess... http://www.alternet.org/workplace/144699/stephen_king_meets_the_estate_tax stay away from moving propellers - they bite blue skies from thai sky adventures good solid response-provoking keyboarding
  13. shareholders of course claim all the benefits of ownership except when it comes to 'their' corporation going bankrupt - then of course 'their' liability is 'limited'. and who gives them this magical ability - the state. stay away from moving propellers - they bite blue skies from thai sky adventures good solid response-provoking keyboarding
  14. Creepy to anyone who believes in a degree of privacy, and knows the limitations of the technology described. the cameras are going to get better, more data will be able to be stored, and the algorithms will evolve until there is no escape from the all-seeing cctv eye. stay away from moving propellers - they bite blue skies from thai sky adventures good solid response-provoking keyboarding
  15. interesting... http://www.newscientist.com/article/mg20427385.800-smart-cctv-learns-to-spot-suspicious-types.html stay away from moving propellers - they bite blue skies from thai sky adventures good solid response-provoking keyboarding
  16. decentralised and grassroots... http://www.commondreams.org/view/2009/12/08-9 stay away from moving propellers - they bite blue skies from thai sky adventures good solid response-provoking keyboarding
  17. it appears that some members of the current bpa council have decided that to hold onto their position it is better to close down all debate! no mention of the current bpa election is now allowed on ukskydiver - so much for free speech stay away from moving propellers - they bite blue skies from thai sky adventures good solid response-provoking keyboarding
  18. like shareholders in limited liability corporations? stay away from moving propellers - they bite blue skies from thai sky adventures good solid response-provoking keyboarding
  19. how much of a parents debts do children inherit from their parents estate? for karmic accounting purposes a negative fiat estate is a zero. ask yourself this question - why should karmic accounting be reversible (an employer is using others labour not the other way round). stay away from moving propellers - they bite blue skies from thai sky adventures good solid response-provoking keyboarding
  20. if a pilot crashes a plane is it the fault of the cabin crew? If the pilot lands the plane is it due to the work of the cabin crew? that's what the pilot is paid for
  21. if a pilot crashes a plane is it the fault of the cabin crew? If the pilot lands the plane is it due to the work of the cabin crew? that's what the pilot is paid for
  22. We already have something of that sort with big companies and it would work a LOT better than 'hoping' the owner dies - Incentive stock options - Stock purchase plans - etc people get the benefits even when the BOD or the primary owner lives or dies exactly - this is sort of like the ultimate employee share ownership system. not too radical after all

  24. the workers don't get a share of the fiat profit at the time - they get a share of the estate (if there is one). if the employer doesn't like the system then he doesn't have to implement it. i can see an employer getting the best libertarian workers though by taking it up
