@pmonks ive already addressed the others or may have them blocked if thry are offiensive.. so no clue if i even saw what your referi g to but if i did inlikely already addresses it.

@pmonks Why woukd i have to explain a thing that i never asserted? I never claimed concentrating wealth in and of itself benefits society.

@alfredo_liberal@universeodon.com I agree. The problem is i cant decide which of the twonparties this describes. Going to have to go with both here.

@pmonks Now was yours, i just rejected your assertion with no basis. The burden is on you to make the argument not me.

@pmonks No i dont use wealth as personal property. I am using the economics definition of wealth. I usually deal with the advanced mathematical side of economics (having invented some.models myself still used in economics circles). So you can assune im using formal definitions unless i say otherwise.

@pmonks

Yea thats not really true.

@pmonks you keep.quoting that, literally no.where in the quote of mine you keep using did i say or imply what you keep.insisting i said.

Yes they generate much of the same wealth that they wind up walking away with. That is not remotely the same as saying giving them money or tax breaks benefits everyone. I didnt even imply they were the majority of wealth generators, only that thr monry they have in the end they largely generate. Just as the wealth others aquire is largely generated as well.

@alexandria All 2fa already has provisio s for this. You simply backup securiely the shared secret you use when creating your 2fa. You can store thrm in a password manager and if you loose your 2fa you can thrn just restore it from the backup shared secrets.

@pmonks i never said the wealthy "predominately" generate wealth. Yes they are wealth generators, everyone else can be too.

You really are trying hard to ram that square peg in a round hole so you can use your talking points... but again i said nothing of the sort.

Yea that definition you just provide has absolutely no relationshop to what i said. Never said it trickles down, never claimed it benefits everyone to give them cuts or breaks either.

@pmonks

I wrote the toot, nothing in what you quoted implies there is any trickle down effect or even, as you imply, that they are the only ones generating wealth

@pmonks No i didnt... nothing in the quote i made implies trickle down, nothing.

I also never said the wealthy were the engine or the only ones generating wealth, nor did i even say they generate the majority of wealth.

My god man read what i said not what you want to hear.

@pmonks @opendna

469k

@pmonks No not even remotely related. At no point did i suggest rich people having money or keeping their money was needed to ensure the poorer and middle class people would benefit.

I

@pmonks Nope no one said anything about trickle down.

@pmonks @opendna @QasimRashid

Saying it isnt abusive also doesnt make it so. Clearly this is my interpritstikn.

@pmonks @opendna @QasimRashid

I literally used the official govt tax burden calculator in both cases... no the nunbers are accurate.

@jaysonmassey then dont thats fine. No need for you to get antagonistic. Just walk away if you dont want to talk.

@mc lol i wont touch php witha 10 foot pool. All due respect to php devs though.

@trinsec Me and a few people have been mulling over the idea
