Logroller challenges RsR

[logroller]

Apparently rsr thinks I need a lesson in economics; so I'd like him to be one to give it to me.
The topic: government created corporations being funded by private enterprise; who then pass on part of the cost in the form of fees-- does or doesn't constitute a tax from an economic POV.

Don't hold your breath, he'll run faster than Carl Lewis from this.

I'd love to see any form of economic debate between the 2 of you.

Debate question/topic
Amount of post per member
How long to completion
Who goes first

The regular "rules" apply, as in debate rules - http://www.debatepolicy.com/showthre...Debate-Section

One of you let me know if you come to an agreement!

Oh, and OCA is already tossed from this thread. I'd rather it be free of that crap, whether coming to debate terms or the debate itself.

would love to see RSR in a one on one .

I'm good with the topic as per the OP-- Derived straight from the thread that rsr stated I need an economics 101 class, accompanied by neg rep. I find it personally insulting to my intellectual character; and like our forefathers would have challenged by dual; I challenge a debate. If he's a gentleman, he'll accept.

I would agree, if one would go that far in making a claim, they should be willing to back up what they are saying. I know RSR has a decent amount of knowledge about economics, but unsure of just how much. Log, I wouldn't be surprised to find out he has a degree in the subject to go along with his degree in 'public' speaking/writing! I think it would be interesting, and hopefully gentlemanly. Maybe we all learn from the debate, and regardless of who "wins", the both of you come out as better friends as well.

Absolutely agreed. What kind of person implies or outright states that they are smarter than another person and then goes to any cost to avoid a one on one debate to prove it.

With all due respect to rsr; he hasn't claimed to be smarter than I. Nor gone to any extreme to avoid a debate with me. He merely insulted me, by suggesting my understanding of basic economics was flawed; which is a statement I take offense to. If he should so choose, he can validate this assertion. If he refrains, for whatever reason, then I shall consider his comment to be nothing more than hot air. Either way, I respect RSR and treat him as gentleman; I expect the same in return.

LR, let me say first my comment was not an isnsult to you. For someone who was written many logical posts I was shocked when you wrote fees are not taxes. Only politicans and members of the liberal media say that

Also, in regards to you comment on the neg rep - who gave who the first red square? Yopu should have told the entire story on that

If you want this you have it. You go ahead and set the rules, number of posts, and work out the details with Jim

No flame - just the facts and the truth

Truth hurt CH?

Logroller, if my comment regarding you taking Economics 101 was taken by you as an insult I apologize

It was not ment to be an insult but no matter what the government calls a tax - it is a tax
