The way you post, the similar view you have on most things, your propensity to associate success with money, your grammar, style of writing, your leaning towards capitalism as the be all and end all.... that sort of thing!

Could be worse, you could be like Tidgy

Christ you do pay attention don't you Shame it's not entirely accurate but none the less I can't fault your powers of observation.

As far as gramma/writing styles go, I tend to tailor my writing style to suit the situation. So this just happens to be the style which lends itself to posting on here.

As for the capitalist views, that's down to the fact it makes an entertaining counter argument to some of the discussions on here. Like yourself I tend to find a certain element of entertainment in playing devils advocate.

To be fair to you if you fully tailored your writing style to that that lends itself to posting on here you'd come across like a ranting illiterate halfwit so fair play to you that you haven't gone that far

That's quite funny coming from the voice of a business studies student who accidentally found an economics text book.

I'm not sure I could state things so categorically, but I dislike this hegemonic free market ideology which just parrots this and that, derp, derp, like it is the 11th commandment.

At least I pay my way in taxes etc which is not something you want to do though is it Tony?

Jealous you say, jealous of what? I really don't think so, I'd take a long hard look at yourself if I were you.

It's a grubby little mindset that picks on the weak. The petty-bourgeois are the 'dominated fraction of the dominating class', they pay for their slightly elevated social position with insecurty and hard work, but they oppress downward with their moralizing about "nothing should be free" and "I achieved this and that with no qualifications blah blah", as well as voting away benefits, etc,. It's easier to pick on those weaker than say the 1% who own 40% of UK wealth (or whatever it is). If you want to know why you run on the treadmill so hard then look up not down.

As for taxes then why should I pay them if I don't live in the UK. My main gripe is that tax money and especially future tax revenue has been used to oppress non-property owners. It's a frankly disgusting operation where the rules are regularly changed according to what advantages property-owners.

Joe's being facetious as per usual. Stirring with his pseudo socio economic wooden spoon. I'm puzzled as to why his rantings elicit a credible response. His Sociology GCSE is really going to his head and he considers himself a social commentator. How to be a social commentator in three easy steps.

1. Pick any political or economic philosophy that has been discredited by mainstream society. Communism and fascism are the easy choices, but other possibilities include colonialism, militarism, socialism, libertarianism, religious fundamentalism, monarchy, despotism, feudalism, or anarchy.

2. Find three ways in which your society is similar to a society that is associated with the system you picked in step 1. Anyone can find three ways in which one society is similar to another, but if you are lazy, you may decide to stop after finding only one or two.

3. Write an essay pointing out those similarities between your society and the "bad" society, then conclude that your own society is illegitimate and hypocritical, and therefore does not have the moral authority to continue whatever policies you want stopped.

I think that's a tad too involved for him to comprehend it's accuracy.

Nice one Maz.
