I put Sun on ignore when he painted that wonderful cartoon image of the evil capitalistic system forcing its will on the innocent victims of the world.

I nearly did so when he insinuated that the rest of the planet can't help but buy our products because of marketing. Don't we all wish that were true - no business would ever do badly! Stocks up and up and up forever and ever, amen. And marketing would be a MUCH more popular, and more lucrative, career choice!

Take away the unspoken premise - we are not responsible for our own choices - and it all becomes mumbo jumbo.

This is the second time in a day that you have misrepresented me to others. You are a coward and an ignorant one at that. If you have something to say, you say it in my face. And if you're saying I am on your ignore list and you are still reading my posts and interpreting them for others, then you are a liar as well as a coward.
