Fiannan,
Your support is also fantasy, and in fact they admit that they are speculative. Just like in 1989, the makers of Back to the Future 2 thought that we would have flying cars, and hover boards. Oh yea and that everybody would be using fax machines.
My background is automation and since my retirement I have been playing around with Arduinos, and plan on playing with Raspberry Pis. I know about automation and robotics. Yes it will change things. But we don't really know how now any better than anybody else's predictions of future worlds have been accurate. However, the problems with aging populations are not future speculation, they are here now!
While I am not a fan of Trump, he is right, Merkel policies are "insane". I was not defending her policies, I was merely giving you the reason she follows them.
Regards,
George Clay

Re: Sex
I'm all for people's freedom to follow their star. And their conscience. I don't know what I have said that has made you think differently, other than proposing the idea of an equitable (not necessarily, equal) distribution of wealth.gclayjr wrote:2ndRateMInd,
You completely missed it.
In my example, there may or may not be any difference in wages. But for a modern life with modern conveniences, there are those who are making those conveniences and investment and reinvestment is needed. The actual question was whether the person who knows how to build and run a factory should be free to "follow his star" and decide to reinvest or not based upon his own judgement. Or should this all be some sort of "community property" where some committee decides what to make and what to do.
and that sir is socialism, which has and always will FAIL! particularly the poorest people that it is advertised to help.
