so wait:

in the beginning, this thread was about among other things the effects of conservative tax reductions, which are of a piece with the largest transfer of wealth toward the wealthy in history. it was about the effects of neoliberalism as they have played out in the states. it was about wondering why people accept this state of affairs.

dk never seemed to exactly understand what was being discussed...then late in the thread, things began to take a turn for the strange, despite shakran's best efforts to head it off at the pass: now the topic is being inverted wholesale.

if you post rightwing libertarian/militia group tax revolt fantasies and/or the usual extremeright arguments about the magical properties of guns in providing orientation for political action....

and you do not recognize that it has nothing to do with the topic of this thread....

then it is clear you haven't read the thread. or maybe you read it and didnt understand it. either way, start another one that has something to do with your premises and maybe---maybe----folk will come to play there too.

it's not hard: arguments that are logically connected to a thread are ok there. arguments that aren't logically connected to a thread belong in a different thread.
