Our government has made us ALL into thieves.

Just because a person is great in their time does not mean their ideas are applicable for all times.

True, Newton's laws of motion are no longer relevant...

Newton's laws do not apply in all circumstances, as it was posited before Einstein and QM.

The same situation applies to economists who had no way of knowing about the particular circumstances of this technological age.

Please, since you obviously know nothing about science or economics, you would do well to stay away from either subject, and I might also add, anything spiritual or political.

I was naive to imagine you might see reason in a logical argument. I wondered if your anti-social behaviour was just the result of the incessant heckling and that a relaxed and mellow approach might bring the best out in you.

However, it's clear why you are heckled. You seem unable to discuss an issue reasonably (that's putting aside your egotistical large text size) and immediately revert to reckless and baseless accusations and ad hominem attacks.

Dunning and Kruger were right.

I love people like you who when they can't attack my argument attack my font size.

Your point was so weak it demolished itself, but I helped to clear away the rubble.

I'll leave you to it. I'm sure you have many more echoes in your head that require your attention.

Back to the proposition that the government has made us all into thieves, the thievery by government from monetary inflation totals more than the combined thievery by all its citizens.

But the government is composed of some of its citizens.

My point is that government thievery makes the rest of us look like pikers.
