2008-04-20 20:46 < Leslie_S> maybe if people werent being fucking assholes all the time, i wouldnt flip out and call them fucking assholes.
2008-04-20 20:46 < CatServ`> shhhh
2008-04-20 20:46 < Axeman> I support Leslie.
2008-04-20 20:46 * Schrodinger_Cat thinks that Lucifer_Cat, being an unofficial part of the chain of command in Hell, in fact *does* not* have direct authority over Hell_Cat

2008-04-20 20:46 < Hell_Cat> o.0
2008-04-20 20:46 < kibble> kmccoy asked her for it
2008-04-20 20:46 < Mike_H> ST47: No, I don't like that.
2008-04-20 20:46 < CatServ`> ...
2008-04-20 20:46 < Mike_H> She was provoked.
2008-04-20 20:46 < ST47> kibble: Wasn't it?
2008-04-20 20:46 < kibble> no it wasn't
2008-04-20 20:46 < Lucifer_Cat> Schrodinger_Cat: thats why i summoned up Hades_Cat
2008-04-20 20:47 < kibble> thank you mike_h
2008-04-20 20:47 < ST47> Fine
2008-04-20 20:47 < zocky> ST47, started with people sending channel notices
2008-04-20 20:47 < ST47> We allow people to call others fucking assholes?
2008-04-20 20:47 < kmccoy> Mike_H, what provoked this: "<Leslie_S> wow, axeman is a fucking idiot. just like always."
2008-04-20 20:47 < Axeman> okay
2008-04-20 20:47 < Mike_H> Oh.
2008-04-20 20:47 < kibble> kmccoy, him sending a notice
2008-04-20 20:47 < Axeman> I take no offense to that
2008-04-20 20:47 < ST47> Too bad the fucking asshole ops can't deal with problem users
2008-04-20 20:47 < Axeman> seriously
2008-04-20 20:47 < Mike_H> Okay, who wants to reban her?
2008-04-20 20:47 < Axeman> it was deserved
2008-04-20 20:47 < Axeman> and I think it's chickenshit to ban her
2008-04-20 20:47 < kmccoy> Oh, well, that clearly justifies it. Silly me.
2008-04-20 20:47 < kibble> you guys are all being idiots
2008-04-20 20:47 < CatServ`> I will if no one else will
2008-04-20 20:47 < kibble> it's embrassing
2008-04-20 20:47 < Lucifer_Cat> ST47: it was provoked. not her fault
2008-04-20 20:47 < Schrodinger_Cat> I guess we should.
2008-04-20 20:48 * Schrodinger_Cat watched the entire episode
2008-04-20 20:48 < kibble> kmccoy, it doesn't "justify" it
2008-04-20 20:48 < Pilotguy> Axeman: If I see you send a notice to this channel you're going on autorem
2008-04-20 20:48 < ST47> She WAS warned
2008-04-20 20:48 < kibble> but it doesn't "justify" a ban
2008-04-20 20:48 < Floor_Feline> how does one deal with problem users? not get them all hot and bothered. quite simple
2008-04-20 20:48 < Mike_H> ST47: Okay, if you want to reban her
2008-04-20 20:48 < Pilotguy> Axeman: You've been getting away with that for too long
2008-04-20 20:48 < Mike_H> I won't take it off.
2008-04-20 20:48 < ST47> she's left now, I don't have a problem with it anymore
2008-04-20 20:48 < Axeman> Pilotguy: I haven't been on this channel in 2 months
2008-04-20 20:48 < Lucifer_Cat> we should what?
2008-04-20 20:48 < Pilotguy> And ST47, stop abusing your ops already
2008-04-20 20:48 < atomicpotato> what's wrong with notices?
2008-04-20 20:48 < Axeman> aw shit
2008-04-20 20:48 < ST47> Pilotguy: What?
2008-04-20 20:48 < Floor_Feline> atomicpotato: ugly formatting, pinging, etc.
2008-04-20 20:48 < Schrodinger_Cat> Floor_Feline: Y'mean like how we handled Wuju earlier today?
2008-04-20 20:48 < kibble> Pilotguy, next person sends a notice is banned, let's leave it at that
2008-04-20 20:48 < Axeman> IN BEFORE SHITSTORM!
2008-04-20 20:48 < Lucifer_Cat> atomicpotato: theyre irritating
2008-04-20 20:48 < ST47> You're kiding.
2008-04-20 20:48 < Floor_Feline> Schrodinger_Cat: I wasn't around.
2008-04-20 20:48 < ST47> Abuse?
2008-04-20 20:48 < Pilotguy> Axeman: And you're screwing it up already, so stop
2008-04-20 20:49 * CatServ` hides
2008-04-20 20:49 < Axeman> It's the Dramafest Variety Hour!
2008-04-20 20:49 < ST47> Only fucking assholes would call controlling insane users abuse.
2008-04-20 20:49 < Floor_Feline> Schrodinger_Cat: how did that go?
2008-04-20 20:49 < zocky> just shut up everybody for a few minutes, mmkay?
2008-04-20 20:49 * Lucifer_Cat sends FastLizard4 to sniff out CatServ`
2008-04-20 20:49 < Axeman> ST47: She wasn't insane
2008-04-20 20:49 < Luna-San> ST47: Calm
2008-04-20 20:49 < Pilotguy> kibble: Yeah that too
2008-04-20 20:49 < Axeman> she disturbed the status quo
2008-04-20 20:49 < Looooooooong_Cat> Cats
2008-04-20 20:49 < Lucifer_Cat> and managing the search ops will be Enterprise_Cat
2008-04-20 20:49 < kmccoy> There's nothing wrong with channel notices. If you've got your client configured to present them in an obnoxious way, then you should reconfigure your client.
2008-04-20 20:49 < Looooooooong_Cat> let,s all mass hug ST47
2008-04-20 20:49 < Axeman> and calling me a fucking asshole was quite all right with me
2008-04-20 20:49 * Lucifer_Cat huggles ST47
2008-04-20 20:50 < Axeman> you should see if the object of "personal attacks" objects to them before you ban for them
2008-04-20 20:50 * Looooooooong_Cat huggles ST47
2008-04-20 20:50 < Axeman> if I call myself a fucking asshole it doens't matter
2008-04-20 20:50 < Pilotguy> Axeman: We got your point, that's enough
2008-04-20 20:50 < zocky> well, it does somewhat
2008-04-20 20:50 < Axeman> Aah.
2008-04-20 20:50 < zocky> don't say fuck unless you're using it to make a valid point
2008-04-20 20:50 < Floor_Feline> let's keep this PG-13, children
2008-04-20 20:50 < ST47> Axeman: personal attacks annoy me.
2008-04-20 20:50 < kibble> Axeman, it makes me feel all sad inisde to hear you call yourself an asshole
2008-04-20 20:50 < Axeman> I could, and something tells me I should, carry this on to the point where I'm banned too
2008-04-20 20:50 < Axeman> but I won't
2008-04-20 20:50 < kibble> so please don't do it
2008-04-20 20:51 < ST47> Because I don't want the 8-year-old watchimg what I do to see people calling others fucking assholes
2008-04-20 20:51 < Schrodinger_Cat> Floor_Feline: Pretty well, actually. Wuju came in, and the first thing he said was some deliberately inflammatory thing about Tibet. Only, there wasn't anyone actively monitoring the channel to respond. So, he sits for a while, and waits until he gets a response. Even then, he only got a couple of responses, and, seeing that no one was taking him seriously, he left.
2008-04-20 20:51 < Axeman> ST47: you do it yourself quite often
2008-04-20 20:51 < ST47> Axeman: So I'm hypocritical. Ban me.
2008-04-20 20:51 < ST47> I'd like that, I wouldn't have to deal with these lot anymore
2008-04-20 20:51 < Lucifer_Cat> Schrodinger_Cat: lol
2008-04-20 20:51 < Axeman> >_>
2008-04-20 20:52 < The359> did I see correctly on the news that Tibet said it's legal to shoot pro-Tibet protestors?
2008-04-20 20:52 < Luna-San> This conversation stopped making any sense a long time ago.
2008-04-20 20:52 < Axeman> this is where I stop trying to find logic in IRC
2008-04-20 20:52 < Schrodinger_Cat> Lucifer_Cat: You were around for that, weren't you?
2008-04-20 20:52 < ST47> Luna-San: You're in #wikipedia. Dont act so suprised
2008-04-20 20:52 < zocky> ST47, ok, you just put a big foot in your mouth :)

2008-04-20 20:53 < quanticle> Lucifer_Cat: Chillax? Is that like some combination of "chill" and "relax"?
2008-04-20 20:53 < ST47> No
2008-04-20 20:54 < Lucifer_Cat> yeah that too
2008-04-20 20:54 * quanticle throws a pokeball at Floor_Feline for even suggesting the topic
2008-04-20 20:54 < CatServ`> ...
2008-04-20 20:54 < Messy_Cat> so Floor_Feline, I hear you like Mudkips
2008-04-20 20:54 * CatServ` throws some random data at Floor_Feline
2008-04-20 20:54 < quanticle> Messy_Cat: You spelt liek wrong.
2008-04-20 20:54 * Lucifer_Cat wonders if CatServ` is running J2EE
2008-04-20 20:55 * Floor_Feline records some mudkip action for the webcam
2008-04-20 20:55 < Lucifer_Cat> *liek
2008-04-20 20:55 < Lucifer_Cat> lol
2008-04-20 20:55 < Messy_Cat> my sister is in the backyard
2008-04-20 20:55 < Messy_Cat> shouting into her cell phone
2008-04-20 20:55 < Messy_Cat> she doesn't know she's broadcasting what she is saying to the neighbors
2008-04-20 20:55 < Lucifer_Cat> how old is she
2008-04-20 20:55 < quanticle> Messy_Cat: D'you know who's on the other end?

2008-04-20 20:55 < Messy_Cat> lucifer cat she is 18
2008-04-20 20:56 < Lucifer_Cat> too young
2008-04-20 20:56 < quanticle> Messy_Cat: What's she yelling about?
2008-04-20 20:56 < Messy_Cat> i don't know
2008-04-20 20:56 < Messy_Cat> by the way i beat Subspace Emissary today
2008-04-20 20:56 < quanticle> Messy_Cat: Cool.
2008-04-20 20:56 < Lucifer_Cat> quanticle: shes 18. it cant be anything worthwhile
2008-04-20 20:56 < quanticle> Messy_Cat: When did you get Brawl?
2008-04-20 20:56 < Messy_Cat> day it came out
2008-04-20 20:56 < quanticle> Lucifer_Cat: True enough.
2008-04-20 20:57 < quanticle> Messy_Cat: And you only beat Subspace Emissary today?
2008-04-20 20:57 < Messy_Cat> yes
2008-04-20 20:57 * Axeman trolls
2008-04-20 20:57 < Messy_Cat> i played for a total of like
2008-04-20 20:57 < Messy_Cat> 11 hours 46 minutes
2008-04-20 20:57 < Messy_Cat> i think
2008-04-20 20:57 < Axeman> Messy_Cat: stop trolling
2008-04-20 20:58 < Messy_Cat> ???
2008-04-20 20:58 < quanticle> Messy_Cat: Heh. I have a little brother. He usually beats video games within a week. Being in middle-school means you have a *lot* of free time.
2008-04-20 20:58 < Messedrocker> quanticle, i have a lot of free time, but that doesn't mean i beat games within one week
2008-04-20 20:59 < quanticle> Messedrocker: Well, that just means that you just have, y'know, *actual* *priorities*.
2008-04-20 20:59 < Messedrocker> not really
2008-04-20 20:59 * Floor_Feline cannot stress how much emotional pain differing newlines (\r\n, \r, \n) has caused him
2008-04-20 20:59 < Messedrocker> it means i don't have an addictive personality towards video games :)
2008-04-20 20:59 < quanticle> Heh. That too.
2008-04-20 21:00 < Floor_Feline> I hate carriage returns with a passion :(
2008-04-20 21:00 * atomicpotato cannot stress how much emotional pain UTF-8 faggotry has caused him
2008-04-20 21:00 < atomicpotato> WHY CAN WE NOT JUST USE ASCII. GOD.
2008-04-20 21:00 < quanticle> I should get my brother to start playing Nethack, and see if it causes him to explode...
2008-04-20 21:00 < Messedrocker> get him to play the original Metroid
2008-04-20 21:00 < Floor_Feline> I hear that other languages exist besides English, atomicpotato. (an unverified rumor at this point)
2008-04-20 21:00 < Messedrocker> or Super Metroid. I love that game!
2008-04-20 21:00 < ST47> atomicpotato: caps
2008-04-20 21:01 < Cyrius> because ASCII falls down for anything other than English?
2008-04-20 21:01 < quanticle> atomicpotato: Japanese people don't need to use computers </sarcasm>
2008-04-20 21:01 < Axeman> CAPS LOCK IS CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOL
2008-04-20 21:01 < ST47> ...
2008-04-20 21:01 < atomicpotato> quanticle, Floor_Feline, they should learn to fucking speak English
2008-04-20 21:01 < quanticle> Axeman: Even with cruise control you still need to steer
2008-04-20 21:01 < Axeman> Steering is for the weak
2008-04-20 21:01 < Hell_Cat> XD
2008-04-20 21:01 < CatServ`> :O
2008-04-20 21:01 < Luna-San> Messedrocker: So true. Best game evar.
2008-04-20 21:01 < Hell_Cat> I beat video games in a day
2008-04-20 21:01 < Axeman> why do you think they invented 4-wheel drive?
2008-04-20 21:02 < Floor_Feline> atomicpotato: of course, but that still won't solve the problem of them writing in Japanese
2008-04-20 21:02 < Luna-San> Messedrocker: You know it's possible to get to the grappling beam without the speed booster? >.>
2008-04-20 21:02 < Messedrocker> i've heard something to that effect, but don't you have to be really leet?
2008-04-20 21:02 < atomicpotato> Floor_Feline, simple. Ban and eliminate any form of electronically communicating in jap.
2008-04-20 21:02 < atomicpotato> Then they'll have to learn English
2008-04-20 21:02 < quanticle> Floor_Feline: Heh. Well said (or should that be well written).
2008-04-20 21:02 < atomicpotato> which will save all of us about 3GB on fonts.
2008-04-20 21:03 < Floor_Feline> no one's forcing you to download 3GB. People will just communicate sekritly behind your back if you don't
2008-04-20 21:03 < Luna-San> Messedrocker: Took my brother and I hours, between the both of us. :) The sequence of wall jumping to get past that big long jump you're supposed to speed boost over is a *bitch*
2008-04-20 21:04 < quanticle> Luna-San: Which game?
2008-04-20 21:04 < Luna-San> Super Metroid
2008-04-20 21:04 < quanticle> Luna-San: SNES?
2008-04-20 21:04 < Luna-San> Yep
2008-04-20 21:04 < quanticle> Sweet.
2008-04-20 21:05 < quanticle> That was one of my favorite games, behind Sonic 2
2008-04-20 21:05 < Luna-San> Never did manage the two-hour clear, though. I've come pretty close.
2008-04-20 21:06 < quanticle> Nice.
2008-04-20 21:06 < quanticle> Heh. The thing that I liked about the Sonic series of games was that they were all so unforgivingly *fast*.
2008-04-20 21:07 < Messedrocker> i <3 that too
2008-04-20 21:07 < Messedrocker> it's also fun to play as Sonic in SSBB
2008-04-20 21:07 < Messedrocker> it's so nostalgic, what with the sound effects
2008-04-20 21:08 < CatServ`> needz moar intarwebz
2008-04-20 21:09 < quanticle> Messedrocker: Yeah. I like how they kept Sonic's near-uncrtollable speed in Brawl.
2008-04-20 21:09 < quanticle> *near-uncontrollable
2008-04-20 21:10 < Axeman> Oh noes

2008-04-20 21:12 < quanticle> Lucifer_Cat: Does Ms. Page join Ms. Rawat on the "I'd tap that" list?
2008-04-20 21:12 < Lucifer_Cat> shes on it already. im just reading off random entries
2008-04-20 21:13 < PolecatVlad> Is that comma right or wrong?
2008-04-20 21:13 < PolecatVlad> that kind of punctuation bugs the hell out of me.
2008-04-20 21:13 < quanticle> Lucifer_Cat: Is there a complete list posted anywhere?
2008-04-20 21:14 < Axeman> Why is tor gateway banned?

2008-04-20 21:14 < wimt_away> Quieted, due to it being regularly abused.

2008-04-20 21:17 * amidaniel stabs tab completion
2008-04-20 21:17 < Axeman> but then again, my client is screwy like htat
2008-04-20 21:17 < lulbat> What's the difference between an Aston Martin and a pile of dead babies?
2008-04-20 21:17 < Lucifer_Cat> one dead baby in 9 dumpsters
2008-04-20 21:18 < atomicpotato> Lucifer_Cat, nice
2008-04-20 21:18 < lulbat> I don't have an Aston in my garage

2008-04-20 21:20 < ECB> wikipedia is a cool guy, shunned by universities and doesnt afraid of anything.
2008-04-20 21:20 < Axeman> and hopefully, we all know what Rule 34 is, right?
2008-04-20 21:20 < Axeman> Right, guys?
2008-04-20 21:20 * Axeman crickets
2008-04-20 21:20 < Axeman> okay, kemme asplain
2008-04-20 21:21 < Floor_Feline> Axeman: we're not talking about that. We're talking about Wikipedia. gracias
2008-04-20 21:21 < ECB> rule 34 of wikipedia?
2008-04-20 21:21 < Axeman> Rule 34: If it exists, there is porn of it. No exceptions
2008-04-20 21:21 < ECB> i know their is a lot of rules, i havnt memorized it yet :(
2008-04-20 21:21 < Axeman> I'm not giving you the link here...
2008-04-20 21:21 < ECB> send it in PM plz
2008-04-20 21:21 < Axeman> PM me and I'll give you it if I can find it
2008-04-20 21:21 < Axeman> first of all, it's not Wikipedia, it's Wikipe-tan
2008-04-20 21:21 < Axeman> two different things
2008-04-20 21:22 < ECB> you are pretty full of yourself it seems.

2008-04-20 21:23 < ECB> Catserv` I am being kind.
2008-04-20 21:23 < ECB> thanks for your concern though :)
2008-04-20 21:23 < Luna-San> I bet ECB even rewinds tapes from the rental store.
2008-04-20 21:23 * kibble doesn't rent tapes
2008-04-20 21:23 < ECB> wtf tapes?
2008-04-20 21:24 < CatServ`> Luna-San: Who /rents/ *tapes*?
2008-04-20 21:24 < ECB> Catserv - luna-san is using an old irc script.
2008-04-20 21:24 < ECB> lol
2008-04-20 21:24 < Luna-San> :{ You know, there was a time when we didn't have all this newfangled DVD shit
2008-04-20 21:24 < ST47> ...
2008-04-20 21:24 < CatServ`> heh
2008-04-20 21:25 < Axeman> okay
2008-04-20 21:25 < Axeman> I just found, like... some ungodly number of Wikipe-tan pr0nz
2008-04-20 21:25 < Mike_H> Luna-San: I REMEMBER LASERDISC :DD
2008-04-20 21:25 < CatServ`> :O
2008-04-20 21:25 < Luna-San> Mike_H: Oh man. Those were SO awesome!
2008-04-20 21:25 < ECB> you look at porn on wikipedia?
2008-04-20 21:25 < CatServ`> Luna-San and Mike_H: I have a BetaMax player 9_9
2008-04-20 21:25 < Axeman> ECB: no, porn *of* wikipedia
2008-04-20 21:26 < Axeman> which is even better
2008-04-20 21:26 < ECB> ...
2008-04-20 21:26 < Mike_H> CatServ`: Wow
2008-04-20 21:26 < Mike_H> it's like 1978 again
2008-04-20 21:26 < Luna-San> That's old school.
2008-04-20 21:35 < Axeman> wat
2008-04-20 21:41 < SonicAD> Forum thread title of the day: "Sunday 4/20 Sports / Pope Coverage in NYC "
2008-04-20 21:44 < gwern> wikipeda-tan hentai? ew
2008-04-20 21:44 < gwern> she's not even a very attractive character design
2008-04-20 21:45 < Monobi> Dozens of Greek and Armenian priests and worshippers exchanged blows in Christianity's holiest shrine on Palm Sunday, and pummeled police with palm fronds when they tried to break up the brawl.
2008-04-20 21:45 < quanticle> Monobi: What were they rioting about?
2008-04-20 21:46 < Monobi> quanticle, I don't know, it was a headline.
2008-04-20 21:46 < quanticle> Monobi: Also, was this in Bethlehem?
2008-04-20 21:46 < Monobi> No
2008-04-20 21:46 < Monobi> Jerusalem
2008-04-20 21:47 < quanticle> Ah.
2008-04-20 21:47 < quanticle> Same region.
2008-04-20 21:49 < Monobi> quanticle, why would you vote for someone who wants to tax you
2008-04-20 21:50 < emma> guys, i just found a horrible wikipedia article.
2008-04-20 21:50 < Lucifer_Cat> emma: i can show you 100s
2008-04-20 21:50 < uberpenguin> there are a lot of those
2008-04-20 21:50 < emma> heh
2008-04-20 21:51 < emma> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convoluted_tubule
2008-04-20 21:52 < quanticle> Monobi: I'd certainly vote for someone who promised to upgrade my infrastructure.
2008-04-20 21:53 < quanticle> Monobi: Even if it resulted in more taxes for me.
2008-04-20 21:53 < Monobi> Lol
2008-04-20 21:53 < Monobi> Involuntary taxation is a violation of my right to life
2008-04-20 21:54 < Luna-San> Then dun pay.
2008-04-20 21:54 < quanticle> Monobi: How so?
2008-04-20 21:54 < gwern> quanticle: presumably his right to life entails 'right to spend as much on his life as he is given'
2008-04-20 21:55 < Monobi> quanticle, simple. When I work for 1 hour and make $10 for working that hour, I have invested 1 hour of my time, my life, into that money. Therefore by taxing me on it they have essentially removed a portion of my life.
2008-04-20 21:55 < quanticle> Monobi: Why do you think that all good and services can be efficiently provided by the government?
2008-04-20 21:55 < quanticle> Er, private industry, rather
2008-04-20 21:55 < Monobi> quanticle, uh, they can be...?
2008-04-20 21:56 < gwern> Monobi: I find your assertion that you deserve all of that money amusing
2008-04-20 21:56 < quanticle> Monobi: What about infrastructure services, whose main benefits come from externalities?
2008-04-20 21:56 < Monobi> quanticle, it is not the job of the government to uphold the infrastructure
2008-04-20 21:56 < Monobi> The job of the government is to protect my rights
2008-04-20 21:57 < gwern> given that your labor is only worth as much as that due to billions of humans laboring without any compensation from you to them
2008-04-20 21:57 < SWATJester> your time != your life
2008-04-20 21:57 < quanticle> Monobi: It is not profitable for private industry to provide all infrastructure.
2008-04-20 21:58 < Ral315> Anyone know why the search field on wikipedia.org doesn't get focus automatically (so users can type in the box right away)
2008-04-20 21:58 < quanticle> Monobi: It is not profitable because infrastructure generates additional positive externalities, whose benefits do not go to the provider.
2008-04-20 21:58 < Monobi> SWATJester, so if I imprisoned you for 10 years you wouldn't say your life has been wasted?
2008-04-20 21:58 < Ral315> I seem to remember there were community reasons for this, but I don't recall when or where.
2008-04-20 21:58 < quanticle> Monobi: Tax != imprisonment.
2008-04-20 21:58 < SWATJester> Nope. My liberty has been wasted but not my life
2008-04-20 21:59 < gwern> Ral315: maybe google had a patent on it :)
2008-04-20 21:59 < Ral315> Haha
2008-04-20 21:59 < Ral315> Nah, probably Amazon.com
2008-04-20 21:59 < Crimedog> What's this tax/prison stuff?
2008-04-20 22:00 < Zelta> In a perfect world, there would be no taxes. But a government needs something to sustain itself on.
2008-04-20 22:00 < quanticle> gwern: That's the issue I have most libertarian philosophies. They all seem to ignore the fact that, in the absence of government, society tends to degenerate into chaos and violence.
2008-04-20 22:01 < Crimedog> but you can still get rich :)
2008-04-20 22:01 < Crimedog> Oh, about the tax/prison thing
2008-04-20 22:01 < Crimedog> http://www.straightdope.com/mailbag/mtaxes.html
2008-04-20 22:01 < Crimedog> Is that what you were talking about?
2008-04-20 22:02 < SWATJester> quanticle: the state of nature is war.
2008-04-20 22:02 < Zelta> also, Monobi: if taxes were voluntary, nobody would pay up.
2008-04-20 22:02 < Lucifer_Cat> i wonder if jobs n gates ever hung out on irc
2008-04-20 22:02 < ECB> Zelta - find me research to prove such a thing
2008-04-20 22:02 < Monobi> Zelta, what's the problem with that
2008-04-20 22:02 < Monobi> Zelta, also, hillary clinton wants to pay more taxes
2008-04-20 22:02 < ECB> if the taxes went to what people found them to be beneficial, they would pay.
2008-04-20 22:03 < Monobi> ECB, indeed
2008-04-20 22:03 * ECB mourns ron paul
2008-04-20 22:03 < Monobi> Paying some artist who can't make it in the free market is not what I want my taxes to be used for
2008-04-20 22:03 < Monobi> ECB, ;)
2008-04-20 22:03 < Zelta> ECB, really? If you won $1,000,000 dollars in a lottery, would you voluntarily give 7% of that to the government?
2008-04-20 22:04 < ECB> Zelta, perhaps not, but i would definatly tithe the 10% to church
2008-04-20 22:04 < ECB> in todays age a million dollars is not a significant amount of money
2008-04-20 22:04 < ECB> and in my location, tax on lottery is much higher
2008-04-20 22:04 < Zelta> Since when is one million dollars not significant?
2008-04-20 22:04 < quanticle> SWATJester: True. I always chuckle whenever I see the so called "anarchists" protesting around these parts, because I know those fat suburban kids wouldn't last two seconds in a true anarchic state like Afghanistan, or Congo, or even downtown Detroit.
2008-04-20 22:04 < Zelta> Do you have a million dollars?
2008-04-20 22:05 < ECB> quanticle you raise a good point.
2008-04-20 22:05 < LiraNuna> I would donate... to SCIENTOLOGY!
2008-04-20 22:05 < LiraNuna> or the fight against it ;)
2008-04-20 22:05 < SWATJester> I disagree that the concept of true anarchy can exist in a world this heavily populated
2008-04-20 22:05 < ECB> Zelta no, I dont have 1mil, however i do have a plan to have that much before the age of 40
2008-04-20 22:05 < SWATJester> As I said in the other channel:the end result of anarchy is that some groups will obtain power and dominate over others, thus creating a government
2008-04-20 22:05 < ECB> Quanticle, detroit isnt as bad as people make it out to be
2008-04-20 22:05 < quanticle> SWATJester: There are plenty of hellholes, though, that approximate the anarchic state.
2008-04-20 22:05 < Zelta> If it's not significant, why will it take that long to obtain it?
2008-04-20 22:06 < SWATJester> yeah, they're like mini despotisms
2008-04-20 22:06 < ECB> because i am not a salaried worker
2008-04-20 22:06 < ECB> i work by the hour and have some schooling expenses
2008-04-20 22:06 < Zelta> ECB: How many people do you suppose have over one million dollars in the world?
2008-04-20 22:06 < quanticle> ECB: I know. But, downtown Detroit, especially at night, is a sight more anarchic than most US cities, save perhaps St. Louis.
2008-04-20 22:06 < ECB> Quanticle, what do you consider downtown
2008-04-20 22:07 < ECB> i used to work off of 8 mile, and i go down to the theater district a lot
2008-04-20 22:07 < ECB> i dont do the radio stuff anymore :/
2008-04-20 22:07 < ECB> Zelta, i could try to find you numbers if you would like
2008-04-20 22:07 < Zelta> I bet not more than 1% of the world population has over one million dollars.
2008-04-20 22:08 < ECB> http://ask.yahoo.com/20070215.html
2008-04-20 22:08 < Zelta> And yet you say it is insignificant?
2008-04-20 22:08 < ECB> There are literally millions of millionaires in the United States. In fact, according to this 2005 article from MarketWatch, 8.9% of Americans are millionaires. That translates to roughly 2.6 million people.
2008-04-20 22:08 < ECB> and that was three years ago
2008-04-20 22:08 < quanticle> ECB: I don't know. I just got lost in Detroit after dark once. I doubt I'd have been as scared as I was if I was more familiar with the area.
2008-04-20 22:09 < Zelta> ECB: Note that that is only in the United States, the wealthiest country per capita GDP...
2008-04-20 22:09 < Ral315> ECB: That number sounds questionable to me -- it depends on the definition of "millionaire".
2008-04-20 22:09 < Zelta> United States != World
2008-04-20 22:09 < quanticle> SWATJester: True. Anarchy is an unstable equilibrium - any perturbation will tend to lead to governmrnt.
2008-04-20 22:09 < ECB> Zelta, The united states may not be the world, but it sure has a large influence upon it
2008-04-20 22:09 < Ral315> For one thing, 8.9% is ~26 million people -- is it 0.89% and 2.6m, or 8.9% and 26m?
2008-04-20 22:09 < Zelta> ECB: That has nothing to do with the number of world wide millionares
2008-04-20 22:10 < ECB> A world wide account would not be accurate anyways
2008-04-20 22:10 < ECB> because not everyone uses USD
2008-04-20 22:10 < ECB> also cost of living is different in different areas and countries
2008-04-20 22:10 < Zelta> The point is that 1 million dollars is not insignificant
2008-04-20 22:10 < ECB> well, for the feble minded it is the carrot on the end of a pole
2008-04-20 22:11 < ECB> but for those with financial know-how it is quite an easy goal to obtain
2008-04-20 22:11 < Zelta> While I may not agree with some of the tax appropriations in the United States, I don't think a voluntary tax system would work.
2008-04-20 22:12 < Monobi> I'd be happy to give 5% of my income to the gov't to protect my rights
2008-04-20 22:12 < ECB> I would rather spend that 5% on an arsenal
2008-04-20 22:12 < Zelta> It would be far easier, and more practical to make people who need to use a service pay a tax for it. i.e. only people with children enlisted in school should have to pay taxes that go to education
2008-04-20 22:12 < ECB> Zelta, definatly.
2008-04-20 22:13 < Zelta> People who don't have children should not have to pay for schools
2008-04-20 22:13 < quanticle> Monobi: Right, but you won't get any protection unless *everyone* gives x% of their income.
2008-04-20 22:13 < ECB> also the wealthy are taxed ungodly amounts.
2008-04-20 22:13 < Monobi> ECB, preach it :O
2008-04-20 22:13 < ECB> Monobi, my family has 4 parcels of land in the state
2008-04-20 22:13 < ECB> and i could literally get lost on one of them
2008-04-20 22:14 < ECB> aka, nobody would find me unless they burned everything down
2008-04-20 22:14 < Monobi> ECB, my family pays over 30,000 a year in income taxes
2008-04-20 22:14 < quanticle> Zelta: You're saying that you'd rather not pay for schools even if schools generate a positive externality that contributes to *your* living standards?
2008-04-20 22:14 < ECB> 5% of my income would supply me and my family with enough guns and munitions along with rations to survive any hostile incidents
2008-04-20 22:14 < Monobi> ECB, haha, where do you live?
2008-04-20 22:14 < ECB> not to mention we could live off the deer
2008-04-20 22:15 < Zelta> quanticle: I'm saying I don't want to pay for things I don't use. I'm fine with getting taxed the same amount as everyone else, I just want it to go to things I am using / eligible to use.
2008-04-20 22:15 < ECB> Monobi - michigan
2008-04-20 22:15 < Monobi> ahh
2008-04-20 22:15 < ECB> one side has 1k acres in the thumb of michigan
2008-04-20 22:15 < Monobi> quanticle, since when are government schools good?
2008-04-20 22:15 < ECB> my grandma has 20 in northern michigan with 3 sides connected to "state land"
