Why do you label Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged as "Chicago School of Economic pornography"?
Is he talking about Chicago style politics? I've heard that phrase bandied about like crazy during the last three years.

Wow you guys really don't know anything about economics or economic theory, do you?

If you or tobinov would deign to stoop to our uneducated level, you could have said, "unfettered free market" economic theory. But that's cool dude.

And yet you and Phatscotty talk about economics with such authority... without even knowing the name of one of the most prominent schools of thought in the discipline.
It's been well known as the Chicago School of Economics for a long, long time.

Really? Good for you man! I'm assuming you inherited the money from your parents.

That assumption is a large part of why you're so bitter all the time, I'd wager.

pimpdave wrote: I probably haven't had to work as hard as you have though, because I never let bitterness hold me back.
pimpdave wrote:I resent your continued assertion (based on nothing) that I inherited anything (other than my dashing good looks and dynamite smile).
pimpdave wrote:It doesn't matter if people don't reply to the Tea Party Death Squad threads. What matters is that the news gets out about that dangerous organization. And besides, people do still reply, when it's a story that is apparently interesting to them. There just hasn't been anything recently. Everyone has slumps. At his best, even Ted Williams failed 6 out of 10 times.
pimpdave wrote:I wasn't insulting your intelligence for pointing out that you have no idea what you're talking about when you're tapping away about economics. I'm just pointing out that you clearly weren't educated in that discipline. If you were insulted, that's your own hypersensitivity coming into play.
pimpdave wrote:You're always talking with authority about taxes too. I'm curious what that foundation is built on. Just the law school thing? If so, it's really no surprise why you fail to see the big picture so often when it comes to economics.
pimpdave wrote:Also, way to go there buddy, really showing your true colors.

I got it. But then, I studied economics and junk in college.
Phatsco, do most jokes in this forum just fly right over your head? Is that the source of most of the miscommunication around here?
Maybe it's just the fact that I've followed finance for so many years that I'm familiar with how often finance guys make jokes about economics and pornography, but it really shouldn't be that complex or lofty to understand.

You very intelligently know exactly what you're talking about when it comes to complaining about how hard rich people have it and why they shouldn't have to pay more in taxes to keep this entire nation solvent.
Get some rest dude. You're sounding frazzled. If you're using CC to take a break from your job, get a micro-nap instead. Just ten minutes can really help. It's to to be really exhausting having a newborn.
