Do you mean that 'business' institutions dominate my life? And, you think that's optimal? Why? Dry is good, but I think that my socks can get dry without regard to corporate policy.
If only you had words to connect the conclusion with some factual premises! Then, the claim could have some credibility. Heck, even a bumper sticker would be a start, if there were a clear attribution: I could ask the author!
Yeah, you see, the 'I thought about it' argument doesn't work for you either.
What is your roof made of, thatched twigs that you gathered in the forest yourself? Did you raise sheep and spin wool and knit those socks too?
It's impressive that, 1000 years ago, clothing was so valuable and most people had so little of it. Nowadays, it's almost free and people have to regularly clean out their closets and give stuff away.
It's hard to argue against basic conservation principles, like COE.

Yes, and all the time we have the ratings agencies on board and complicit in this, classifying this paper as AAA, nothing much will change.

which will probably always happen.
Whatever I do, I have to pay tax. Raise sheep, pay tax. Spin wool, pay tax. Knit wool, pay tax. That's how public works and services are funded. Tax on corporate after-cost profits is a pittance, compared to individual income tax. After all, I have to live: upkeep my roof, clothe myself, and pay for electricity to dry the socks, and NONE OF MY NECESSITY COSTS ARE DEDUCTIBLE like business expense.
Never a straight answer. Straight thinking, logical connection, historic examples, those would be better than a bumper sticker. TLA: not better than a bumper sticker.
Business makes profits which end up in people's pockets. In principle you can tax those profits at any point in the chain, whether from the business or from people or from retailed products. Each obviously has different effects.
Mr. Larkin doesn't want the tax on business because business development is what gives us everything we have, and taxation slows that development.

Conservation of Energy is hardly a bumper sticker.

Right, but typically large institutional investor won't get burned twice in such a short time. They learned their lesson.

Nope, the thermostat one was an unusual IP case--they wanted a referee for a JDA that had ended in a messy divorce, so I was working for both sides. T he BigElectric one was for a microplate reader for water quality bioassays in pharma.

More importantly they also learned that when the entity concerned is so big that to let it fail could cause systemic collapse, that entity will be bailed out with public money.

Did anyone from a ratings agency ever go to jail for those CDOs? I'd have thought labelling dogshit as fit for human consumption would be a crime in any decent country. :-/

Therefore, #2 is irrelevant.
he misses it again.
Nope. Like usual, you haven't (been able to) read.
here we go, stupidity followed by childish comments over & over. Bye bye.
Because you can't read or understand, somehow it's my problem. You sound like a Democrat.
