Zeev's Turnips Talk Politics (ZTTP)

[Koikaze]

Hi, redwards. I've read a modest amount of J K Galbraith and listened to Thurow. Bright men, both. I even agree with some of their ideas.

When you say, "The human system of economics is based on huge structures for distribution, manufacturing, etc.", I think you overstate the case. That may be the current system, but I don't think you can call it the human system.

When you say, "... you will not inhibit growth or large corps.", I agree with you, without reservation. I certainly can not. But, "We, the people" can. Is it likely to happen? Not in my lifetime. But, even so, it is an idea worth pursuing.

I'm sorry that I cannot comment on the IRS. It is an element in a complex system. Personally, I'm not inclined to rail against it unless I can propose an alternative. I can't. To do so would require a lot of study; a course I'm not in a position to pursue.

It seems to me that you and I see the issue I raised in very different lights, but I thank you for your comments.

Fred
