- Anything Else -who cares?In Reply to: Something for the whiners to think about posted by Mike Sprout on January 11, 1998 at 16:11:08:
Since you think I am Quincunx I should let you have the knowledge that I am a securities trader in Vancouver and I am the person who posted to you and notified you of your termination. As far as you trying to tell others that you are a capitalist I must say that you must be so frustrated with your false arguments from being refuted by others that you have to search for a villain or some other kind of conspiracy. I have already posted to you at another section that you are trying to divert rational debate and now I will say that you continue to divert rational debate still. The weather is beautiful here and if you come to Vancouver I think you will find that most people find your views to be quite horrible. Hopefully, the weather will lighten up back east where you are and you can thaw out a bit. The maybe-just maybe- you will see how wildly inaccurate your idea of how the capitalistic system is. I see the rot occurring all around me in my field of work yet I work in a capitalist environment. I know the capitalist system isn't all evil and whatnot but it can't be worshipped as if it is a religion either. As a system for making profits it is splendid but only for a small percent of the world's population. I know . I look at statistics that bear this out everyday. I wish it wasn't like that but it is the awful truth. Just look at the financial collapses of major trading houses in Korea and Japan. This is a result of greed through speculation that was stripped of any ethical system to speak of. I think it'll continue even though I don't want it to. So who cares if Kingston or Montreal is frozen in? That's just mother nature and we all have to deal with her. these ongoing financial collapses are purely the result of greedy people who blithely attribute the root cause of the problem to be due to the markets not being opened up according to free market principles. None.
