Because he's rich. People who are rich and successful are often despised by those who are jealous of them and their success. Maybe while those who des...

I am fine if you take high % of the money made through financial speculation, gambling, etc. and other such activities which aren't productive and don...
November 24, 2017 at 12:08
No, I am simply suggesting that deciding how much value someone has provided isn't a matter of common sense, it's something that has to be carefully a...
November 24, 2017 at 12:06
Well right, no - of course not, because, to begin with, not every worker adds as much value as the next. What about costs with marketing and advertisi...
November 24, 2017 at 11:37
Because you need to show that you have a framework that can scientifically and mathematically determine how X needs to be rewarded, otherwise how will...
November 24, 2017 at 11:30
In some cases in the industrial revolution sure. But not so much right now in the West. That, however, is still largely the case in developing countri...

Well, if everyone had the same ability, then everyone would be starting the same businesses, and nobody would be rich :P A business is just an activit...
November 23, 2017 at 20:46
Well, I'm saying that so far you haven't used mathematics and science to determine what fairness is in this economic context. The reason for that is t...

You can be an idealist entrepreneur X-) Well yaaaah, the world needs more entrepreneurs. Nope. I have your best interest at heart, and you are all sma...

Oh I do like birds, I was just wondering why you chose to put the bird up! Hmmm - I probably liked the bird more actually because it appears to be a l...

I don't understand why Twitter and Facebook aren't real connection/interaction :s - what are they then, unreal? I think the older folk have a prejudic...

Sappy is a front stabber like The Mootch http://video.foxnews.com/v/5522141286001/?#sp=show-clips
November 22, 2017 at 22:36
Sappy why is your cute kitty sitting so high up? Does it usually do that? I like how it is pure black kitty >:)
November 22, 2017 at 22:00
My advice is: start the supplement business. You're in Cali, that's almost perfect for that kind of business, great support laws or so I've heard.
November 22, 2017 at 21:58
Maybe cause you and the Brits raped the whole planet? >:) On another note, you still didn't tell me what's going on with that birdy pic Cranky... :D
November 22, 2017 at 19:32
What a sly creature >:) - but @"Baden" told me that he can see all post modifications, so I might catch you...
November 22, 2017 at 18:44
Yah, cause since 2010 it has been 17 years :B >:O
November 22, 2017 at 18:30
Well not super hard bites, but she can bruise or leave scratch marks. No puncture wounds though. :-} Don't you rich Americans want to donate a little ...
November 22, 2017 at 17:08
Hmm, no I took her when she was a little older. She grew up with one other dog, her brother (I don't own him, he's with a family friend). But she does...
November 22, 2017 at 15:17
Yah but my dog hates other animals lol :P
November 22, 2017 at 15:03
Here we go. That's not my cat though, but I took the photo. The dog is mine - I think she can eat your cat >:) https://preview.ibb.co/c340JQ/photo_2.j...
November 22, 2017 at 14:59
You mean the picture of her? I have on my phone, not on computer... or maybe >:) - I may have sent one to someone over PM. Wait.

November 22, 2017 at 14:46
Sometimes my dog does that before attacking me :-O >:O
November 22, 2017 at 14:42
Why does it want to do that?
November 22, 2017 at 14:37
Why is the cat looking up?
November 22, 2017 at 14:33
@"Bitter Crank" Cranky what's with that bird? And you @"schopenhauer1"?! Who is copying who here, and are you forming some kind of plot together?!
November 22, 2017 at 14:28
Oh? You made a list of the reasons why I've decided to work as self-employed? X-) That's kind of you.
November 22, 2017 at 14:26
These two were interesting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7YF58ygric https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hzp1xb41U40 I miss people like Muhammad Ali or...

According to this: http://oddlydevelopedtypes.com/INTJ

November 22, 2017 at 10:53
Supposedly, I am like these guys :P https://www.personalityclub.com/blog/famous-intj/
November 22, 2017 at 10:39
I am INTJ quite surely. I tested more than 4 times and got INTJ. I used to be ENTJ when around 16-20 or so.
November 22, 2017 at 09:54
I don't have a personality :B >:O I am INTJ, and I think it does fit.
November 22, 2017 at 09:17
Hah! Interesting. I thought the Augustinian one was the strongest, though I've always favored Aristotle over Plato :P
November 21, 2017 at 19:07
Stop wasting your breath, charleton is a joke on two feet >:O You and I need to learn to adopt Sappy's stoicism and let such things go >:O Now, on a d...
November 21, 2017 at 18:48
Okay, my apologies. I will be quite busy these next few days, and there's already a lot of replies I have to catch up with, so I won't reply here anym...
November 21, 2017 at 10:34
Oh yeah, cause Agustino said that "all women are manipulative", totally, suuuuuure - please do tell us what substance you're smoking there, it must be...
November 21, 2017 at 09:34
I don't think it's a foundation cause it's not a basic idea, we can go beyond that and ask why it is wrong? And we have to reach some notion of harm, ...
November 20, 2017 at 21:49
Yes, obviously poverty and inequality can be temptations for immoral behaviour. That's what statistics show. But that kind of inequality has nothing t...
November 20, 2017 at 21:44
So basically yes, diminishing temptations is important but only of secondary importance. Most important is moral reformation. Simply removing temptati...
November 20, 2017 at 21:35
Hmmm let me rephrase. I do see a role for statistics in illustrating what situations may act as temptations for immoral behaviour, however not contrib...
November 20, 2017 at 21:32
Ahh, see, you now learned about decency. That's good now :D
November 20, 2017 at 21:29
I'd take pictures of you all and sell them, no worries 8-)
November 20, 2017 at 21:25
Haha, I think he means the constellation behind, formed by the stars, not the lion pic :P
November 20, 2017 at 21:21
No, because I don't have enough time, and good enough results can be achieved by other means. But understanding what those means are involves understa...
November 20, 2017 at 21:20
You still have to say how it does that, apart from saying it's unbalanced without explaining why imbalance is bad. You also have to define what a prop...
November 20, 2017 at 20:42
I don't think that's how it works. Rather we realised that what we're interested in isn't the motion of any one particular gas particle, but rather wh...
November 20, 2017 at 20:40
Yeah, because the paramedic's employer certainly deserves the benefits of Mike's brownie business, he did a lot of work for it >:)
