Now look koan - you are the one who was 'explaining' how you intellectually superior lefties have to watch out for us stupid right wingers .. and explain stuff all the time.

You brought up two countries as examples. The idea was to show how those countries are superior to the US in income distribution. I asked for the figures.

The least you could do is step up and support your own claim, rather than trying to play 'bait and switch'. Any one with a smidgeon of integrity would know they have to support their own posts. Now, can't you even do that, or are you going to just fart it off and show what sort of derelict you really are.

What do you think about Ayn Rand?

"That we have to compromise and sacrifice for one another in order to get things done. That is why I am here, because Barack Obama is the only person in this who understands that. That before we can work on the problems, we have to fix our souls. Our souls are broken in this nation."

MICHELLE OBAMA

"It only stands to reason that where there's sacrifice, there's someone collecting the sacrificial offerings. Where there's service, there is someone being served. The man who speaks to you of sacrifice is speaking of slaves and masters, and intends to be the master."

AYN RAND

"If yu have two tribes and it is a hard winter and one tribe shares the food equally so everyone can eat and stay healthy through the winter; and another tribe lets those who missed a kill starve to death, which tribe do you want to live in and which will be the strongest? "

if you have two tribes and it's a bad winter and one tribe shares all it's food, but there not enough then the WHOLE tribe dies off.

Now in the other tribe only half die off, which tribe will be strongest ?
