Philosophy Now Forum

I've reluctantly come to the conclusion that the taxation policy of Evensonomics is too simple for anybody to comprehend, much like "The Ouzo Prophecy," and to me this is absolutely baffling.

Nothing baffling about it boob. In the past when some of us tried to engage you in a philosophical discussion of your idea you steadfastly refused to engage with the issues raised. Much like your Ouzo idea. So now we just ignore you as its obvious you're not here to philosophise.

With the exception of me, Bob the Baptist, there's nobody on this damn forum who's a philosopher in any way, shape or form. Who the hell do you think you're kidding? And your personal lack of understanding anything about "The Ouzo Prophecy" is certainly a proof-positive example!

Proof positive that I'm not a godbotherer.

Prove me wrong boob and address the issues I raised with you about your taxation idea. Although I doubt you'll remember them as you are a living exemplar of selective reading and confirmation bias.

When it comes to political economics or Ouzo, I'm an open book. If there's anything you don't understand, I'll explain it, if I don't have an immediate answer, I'll get back to you, and if I'm wrong, I'll be the first to admit it (although the probability of me being wrong is exceedingly low).

I've already talked to you about your boozo stuff and you were not forthcoming so I've given it up as a lost cause.

As usual you ignore what I was talking about and that was your taxation idea. So once again, do you have any replies to the issues I raised with you when you first raised the idea or was I correct in my assumption that you pay no attention to issues others raise with respect to your thoughts and hence the reason why most ignore you now.

First of all, when you're a prophet, it doesn't make any differene if the entire planet ignores you. Secondly, I don't know what you're talking about, and I don't think you do either. If you've got a question, I'll address it immediately, but please, don't bore me with that other nonsense!

Boob,
I did engage you with questions the last time you raised your idea. Its clear that being a 'prophet' has nothing to do with engaging philosophically with others about your ideas and everything to do with being blinded with a selective and confirmation bias reading ability and no long-term memory.

Nicely put.

Please, you keep using those same buzz words that don't mean anything at all, but maybe you just use them in hopes of impressing others. Again, if you have an argument against my position on anything, spell it out, but cut the gobbledygook.

Not at all, I use those words in the hope of making you aware of your disability. But since you are handicapped as such I'll try and spell it out for you. You assumed that its others lack of understanding that causes a lack of reaction to your idea. I told you its not, its because you have shown before that when others respond its not worth the effort as you have no intent to consider your ideas philosophically.

Try checking your old posts upon this idea and read others questions and for once get back with some considered answers for the issues raised once and then your idea may be worth discussing. Its called philosophizing. Subjecting one ideas and beliefs to critique.

Again, you just talk in circles. I realize you are unable to express yourself on any issues of political economics, but please spare me your ring-around-the-rosey approach to any dialogue on the subject.

Dear oh! Dear, your affliction is obviously terminal and you are aptly demonstrating my diagnosis.

Lets try it this way for the really hard of thought.

Check your past posts about your taxation idea, find the parts where I raised questions about certain issues with it and, for once, answer them rather than displacing into a fantasy that others don't understand your point.

Sorry, I'm not a student of ancient history, nor do I maintain an archive. If you actually have some kind of question, I'd be more than happy to address it.

Get up to speed bob. In this medium archiving is not an issue. Click-on view your posts and use the search box to find posts with the relevant words, e.g tax, evonsonomics. Shouldn't take more than ten to twenty minutes to find the issues I raised concerning your idea. I look forward to your considered responses, i.e. solutions or critique of my thought.
