Imran, I tried talking with him. He is just beyond hope. He doesn't have an argument of any kind. He makes up statements out of thin air, and has a holier than thou attitude that makes me want to ring his neck. It responded to several of my messages with pure BS. I heard Al Gore give better responses that he has.

It really wasn't a debate. Several people here have no idea about the subject matter and they struggled unsuccessfully to grasp the basic concepts.

BS! Kidicious, you are so full of it. You know very well I grasped the subject matter far better than you did. You didn't even bother reading my responses and you offered Al Gore like responses. What are you gonna to do? Claim you invented capitalism? Man you lack understanding to denounce anybody else here.

You never will learn it Fez, because you and several other people think they know everything already. So whenever somebody talks about something that confuses you you just dismiss them.

Well I'm done explaining things to you guys. From now on don't ask. The next time one of you know-it-alls ask me to explain something I'm just going to tell you to go buy a book.

Kidicious, I really don't think so. Explaining what? You haven't explained anything.

GP, that is very enlightening. You wanna call me a fag next? Because that is exactly what a note said on my locker. I am sick and tired of little piss ants trying to make my life tough. You want a fighter.. well.. I am one.

I didn't really consider your answers responsive. You just gave very fluffy answers without explaining in terms of supply and demand how the actual calamity that you forsee would be driven through in terms of economics. Feel free to explain it if you can.

They will be driving for efficiency regardless. This will mean that some noneffecient competitors will drop out of the market.

Is it really? I remember that guy being pretty clueless. Anybody who can spend a whole BA doing econ and still not think intuitively in terms or supply/demand is a loss.

Whereas you cite stuff from fluff books. Don't give me that ****. Give me something with hardcore math and experimental, peer-reviewed observation. That is if you can follow that stuff. Now go run off and stick notes on Fez's locker, you dimbulb you.

You haven't explained how the chain of events you expect to happen would in terms of supply and demand. Your explanations were handwaving. About what I expect to see in the local newspaper and definitely a step below what I would see in the WSJ or in the Economist. And that is a step below what I would see in a peer-reviewed journal or a real postgraduate econ text.

Are you Duncan? That would explain a lot.

Oh...and do you have a problem with the math? That would explain a lot and make me think that you bullshitted your way through courses rather than really understanding the material.

I never claimed to be able to explain it all to you. I know enough to see how poor your command of the material is, but not enough to teach it to you. I'm sure that Dr. Spike could school you as he did in the other thread.
