Milton Friedman likes to eat pies in the sky. They taste like cloud. Of course there isn't one fixed pie. New pies are created or change in size as economies evolve, inventions are created, etc. You haven't disproved that pies are zero sum in their nature. We all eat our pies at the expense of someone else somewhere down the line. That new job you got - 100 others were passed over and you're eating pie at their expense because you are there, you exist, you got the job and they didn't. That new invention that was created and added new jobs to the economy, it rendered some other past invention obsolete, and those whose job it was to manufacture it, research it, etc., lose their jobs at the expense of the inventor of the new invention and those associated with him. Even if the new invention adds jobs without adversely affecting some other cog in the machinery, people will swarm to the new pie and most of them will be left out as the pieces are snapped up. Every time you make a trade on the stock market, someone else is on the opposite end of the trade. If you win, he loses and vice versa. You grab that piece of pie and eat it or he will. You don't agree that this is reality?

Is the pie a locally produced, non-GMO, organic, gluten-free pie?
 
I hope OBK isn't following CollegeDoog's trajectory. From pretty cool poster to useless know it all nothing.
 
That's the thing. It isn't IMALOSER territory. It isn't really CollegeDoog territory either. But it's closer to CD than IMALOSER.

He's his own sui generis fucktard I suppose..
