No, what I'm sayin' is what I've said over and over and over: mind your own business, keep your hands to yourself.

This applies to every one: republicans, democrats, conservatives, progressives, commies, socialists, libertarians, christians, jews, muslims, wiccans, agnostics, atheists, men, women, boys, girls, blacks, whites, yellows, reds, browns, rich, poor, educated, uneducated, smart, stupid, hetero, homo, trans, neuter, law abiders, law breakers, and on and on and on.

Leave people be to sink or swim, to succeed or fail.

Folks like yourself wanna do what you deplore when done by 'elites', that being managing others' affairs.

All of you (everyone listed above, and more) need to back the hell off...go tend to your own damn gardens and leave other folks to tend to theirs.

Not gonna happen, of course.

Everyone (listed above, and more) knows better than everyone else how things should 'be', and everyone (listed above, and more) is, it seems to me, more than willing (chompin' at the bit, it seems) to kill, imprison, or re-educate any one who stands apart.

You're all mad dogs in my book....well-intentioned (in some cases), perhaps, but mad, mad, mad beyond absurdity.

Suppose the situation is that I am standing on your foot.

Will you mind your own business, and keep your hands to yourself?

If your standin' on my foot you're intrudin' on me...I'll push you off...if you get mouthy about it, I'll bust you in the chops.

What I won't do: demand 90% of your profits, sue you for injury, jail you for injury, or look to restructure the way the world works to prevent you from mebbe steppin' on my toes again.

I'll deal with you, not some fictional group of toe steppers.

I won't march in the streets, sign pettitions, or cobble together laws meant to prohibit toe-steppin'.

I will deal with you.

So we have established you aren't against intervention to preserve your own interests.

Now suppose that there is more than one of me, that I am stronger than you, or that I have a policeman who will enforce my right to stand on your foot. Since you as an individual are not strong enough to push me off, will you simply accept the situation?

Yeah, I see where you're goin' here....Mick's ordinary Joes are gettin' stepped on by the debbil rich folks, those evil 'capitalists'.

Horse manure.

I know of no law in the U.S. or Britain demanding the poor stay poor so the rich can stay rich.

Cite one if you can.

I note you have avoided the question.

I didn't answer cuz it's a dumb question...I thought you were just steppin' stoneing to some point.

My answer: I'll bust you all in the chops till I can't which means I'm dead. Still won't look to reshape the world so as to negate 'injustice'.

Now: your turn.

Why do you use the letter 'g' sometimes but not others?

Joe’s thinkin about the totalitarian dream of total control.

To make sure the plan works, simply mandate institutional child-care. Only approved government-licensed institutions will be allowed, for the safety of the children.

While he's at it, mandate that there must be jobs, and mandate the career pay-scale. Government subsidies go to employers who qualify with letter-perfect periodic-paperwork to meet the requirements of pay-scale.

What could go wrong?

Not your business.

It's a quirk thing, or thin'.

Exactly.

I understand you, henry, I know where you're coming from.

I know you do.
