Not everyone can have a nice car, or the nicest clothes. I accept that.

We should be striving to ensure that everyone does have access to enough food, good healthcare, and their basic needs met.

Do you think it is a moral responsibility for those who are well off to donate to those that are not?

No. I believe in redistribution of wealth via taxes.

You think corrupt politicians will give that money back to the people? No system will ever work with us humans.  People are too selfish, greedy, ignorant, naive and/or stupid.

That's a defeatest attitude :laugh:

Yeah sorry.  I meant neither capitalism or communism.  Not that real communism has been tried out.  Real nationalism and real democracy could work where people and countries have respect for each other.

I like jelly beans :dunno:

No wonder Bremain lost.
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

Remainiacs  :P
"No one believes more firmly than Comrade Napoleon that all animals are equal. He would be only too happy to let you make your decisions for yourselves. But sometimes you might make the wrong decisions, comrades, and then where should we be?"

"When men lead by words that are false as they preach
Fatality waits in the wings
Surrounded by fools behind walls that are breached
Beware of the jester that sings"


Leeeeeaaaave Benji alooooooone!  :bigcry:

 :crybaby:

Who is throwing a tantrum here and why?

Don't worry Les. This was absolutely nothing to do with your tantrum.

Benji mocked "Remainiacs," and I jokingly suggested I was throwing a tantrum.

This all seems very confusing for you :laugh:

You were throwing a pretend tantrum. Okay good to know. You weren't really upset.
