    Lets say there is a woman who i s sluttty and irresponsible likes to be a baby machine she feels that the successfull person should help reckless person out. That means she taxes succesfful person and gives aid to reckless person. Reckless person is still reckless w hy do you like ideas like this garamet?

    Is this Engrish?

    Faceman translation service to the rescue:

    "Let's say there is a woman who is slutty and irresponsible and likes to be a baby machine. Garamet feels that successful people should help reckless people out. That means Garamet wants us to tax successful people and give the money as aid to reckless people. But the reckless people remain reckless. Why do you like ideas like this Garamet?"

    It's called being charitable, like me offering some of my hard-earned commas to a person who lacks them.

    Here, knock yourself out:
    ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
    There's more where that came from.

    He forgot to throw in theft, fraud, and such. But I must admit, if ever there were an economic idea baba might be able to understand, it would likely be the naively simplistic libertopian theory.

    Much better you hand out your own commas than reach in my back pocket and handing out my money.

    Y'know what always gives me a chuckle, is when I hear fuckin crook politicians on C-Span spout the "MY back pocket", shit.

    Yeah, a fuckin thief is gonna lecture me on thievery.

    And yet guys like you voted 'em in for spouting such cliches.

    Ahh, it's a beautiful world.

    Commas? True generosity demands you share with Baba all your punctuation marks. And throw in a few capital letters, IMO! :soholy:

    I imagine it would be easy to prove wrong if it were remotely coherent. Sometimes I have to physically shake off the things he says here.

    You hang around enough, he starts making sense.

    Like when at about 5 or 6 years old, you could suddenly understand Donald Duck.
